This one took me a little by surprise recently. I was working with a HP SBA/SBM for Lync, equipped with FXS and FXO ports. I’d setup the Trunk Configuration for outgoing FXO calls to strip the Country Code and insert a 0 (as is pretty standard in Oz), and once that was working OK I …

Here’s a good one. I was on-site with a customer recently and we decided to implement CAC in an effort to resolve some voice quality issues between the remote Branch and the Central Site. Before starting work I edited all of the Voice Policies and checked the bandwidth policy override…
I fell into a couple of traps with CAC recently and I thought I should post them… First off, CAC won’t work if you have an R2 Edge in your Topology. Period. Do not pass Go…
UPDATED 16th MAY 2011 – download the source from this post. UPDATED 13th MAY 2012 – have a look at the update to C-ChangePHP in this post. I was an early adopter of Clipsal’s C-Bus building automation system, adding a small installation to our cosy circa-1917 semi back in 1999. Initially we had a grand …
ABSConfig is a tool included in the OCS and Lync "Resource Kit” (Reskit) that lets you tweak the behaviour of the Address Book generator. It’s changed a little in Lync presumably because some of the ABS config is now handled by shell commandlets. The 7577.0 release however contains a few bugs/inconsistencies.
Originally called “Caramel Nut Crunch”, I’ve appropriated this and taken it a little upmarket with its new name “Pine Nut Brittle”. The original recipe came from the Australian Women’s Weekly, “Quick-Mix Biscuits and Slices”, p.28. I inherited this book from my paternal grandmother before she died, and always called her with a thank-you whenever I …
I’ve long enjoyed tinkering with electronics, although it’s something I don’t do a lot of these days. I find that I simply no longer have the time to invest in designing, prototyping & debugging, then the PCB design, layout, artwork and production. Home is littered with all sorts of home-brew projects, including the old stereo …
With last week’s release of the first updates for Lync, the question now becomes one of “what do I do?” – and if you know your Monty Python, you’ll know that the correct answer is “Nothing Dear, you’re not qualified”. OK, actually, that’s not quite correct. There are a couple of steps needed…
Whilst it’s great to see Lync now supports E911, it’s not actually relevant to us here in Australia. There is no current requirement for such a means to report your physical location to the emergency operator, although ACMA is aware of and currently seeking comment on this and other related issues. Australia’s current system relies …
I have a particular dislike of blog sites blatantly re-posting others’ content as their own. I’m happy to re-post, with all the credit going to the original poster. Thanks to mickjf for this post on the auTechHeads site, which I recently stumbled across whilst cursing some strange behaviour of Exchange 2010 UM. This commandlet will …
