Audio Streaming
by Webmaster 28 Sep '05

28 Sep '05

Radio NZ is nearing the end of the testing phase of the live audio streams of National Radio and Concert FM. As a result of feedback from the tests we have removed the 16 kbs cap from our US server. This means that the streams can go up to 48 kbs stereo (National Radio) and 64 kbs (Concert FM) for ALL end users regardless of their location. At present about 40% of the traffic from this server is NZ bound. The streams are also available via NZ exchange points should operators wish to avoid the more expensive international route. regards, Richard Hulse

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that some object(s) in NZRR database which you either maintain or are listed as to-be-notified have been added, deleted or changed. These objects are used to configure the various NZIX route servers (http://nzix.net/) so you can expect the relevant servers to be reloaded in the near future. The reloading of the servers is staggered over a period of time so that if you are peering with both servers at an exchange, you can maintain at least one BGP session at all times and consequently a full set of routes. --- PREVIOUS OBJECT: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS23754 descr: advertised to AS9439 by CityLink - AS23754 members: 198.48.0.0/22^22-29, 202.8.44.0/22^22-29, 198.32.71.0/24^24-29, 203.118.144.0/24^24-29, 202.7.4.32/28^28-29, 203.97.231.224/28^28-29, 203.79.85.80/29, 203.109.195.72/29, 210.48.103.0/29, 210.48.103.112/29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc(a)citylink.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20050708 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS23754 descr: advertised to AS9439 by CityLink - AS23754 members: 198.48.0.0/22^22-29, 202.8.44.0/22^22-29, 198.32.71.0/24^24-29, 203.118.144.0/24^24-29, 202.7.4.32/28^28-29, 202.7.7.88/29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc(a)citylink.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20050926 source: NZRR

Re: [nznog] Vodafone dial pattern - another change ?
by Gavin Legge 22 Sep '05

22 Sep '05

I used to work for a telco and on many occasions observed overlap sending on ISDN's working fine. This while watching test instruments across live lines. - so yeah - it's used out there for sure... Go for it. -----Original Message----- From: Ian Batterbee [mailto:ian.batterbee(a)aut.ac.nz] Sent: Friday, 23 September 2005 1:16 p.m. To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: Re: [nznog] Vodafone dial pattern - another change ? >Surely the delay thing is why most VoIP type systems accept something >such as "#" as an "I've finished inputting my number, please dial it" >indicator ? > > Although we do operate a VoIP system, that's largely irrelevant, because our previous PBX (Ericsson MD110) had all the patterns configured into it as well, so we would have been in the same situation. Users don't expect to have to dial a # at the end of their number, and we shouldn't expect them to have to do so. >Is the 5 seconds tuneable ? "wait 5 seconds till the 5th digit has been >entered then change this to 3 seconds till the 7th digit then change >this to 1 second" > The 5-second delay is coming from TelstraClear.. so no, we can't tune it. They're waiting for another digit, and when I posted about last month, it was because TCL's pattern was actually incorrect, and was waiting for extra digits that would never come, resulting in an unncessary 5 second setup delay to a large number of 021 numbers. This has since been corrected. A number of PBX systems validate the numbers so that they can match and therefore route them down the most appropriate route. Our (Cisco) PBX comes with patterns for most countries, which simplifies the task of setting up a new system. While I agree NZ's plan is relatively simple, other countries are not, and that's probably the reason they do it that way. There is the possibilty that we could enable overlap sending.. which I believe means that you send each digit as it is dialled, rather than all at once in an ISDN SETUP message - as it gives the telco the option to send back 'more needed', or 'that's enough digits'.. but.. I'm reluctant to turn it on without some proper testing first. Thanks to Barry who found the info I needed, and finally, to those of you who do validate the numbers locally, and who were forced into silence before posting anything by Steve's helpful comments, here are the new patterns: 021 0221 XXXX 021 0222 XXXX I believe there may be more coming. _______________________________________________ NZNOG mailing list NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
