Re: [Asterisk] configuration
Great replies all!
rcilink: what do I give up by using only ONE network card ? I, too might want to call home to get dialtone, just haven't thought much about it yet. I have only 3 PCI slots. Digium cards are so expensive even per FXO.
You mentioned one card hard to cancel echo, is that the "wildcard"? I plan to connect a stripped Verizon line with an FXO and also to connect Sunrocket, like to do direct but suspect that I need to use another FXO due to being locked out of gizmo. (I could reuse the gizmo for 2 more extensions if I found admin pwd). I also have Stanaphone, 2 FWDs, plus others. I figure on having 8 extensions all ring on incoming calls first to pick up gets it. Others will be able to dial out on other lines then. Or maybe to use code to connect to existing conversation.
Yes, I plan on using the Live CD. I heard that it has a router/firewall application included too. So the 350MHz PII (not celeron) will be dedicated to router/firewall/Asterisk usage.
Hmmm, although having a mail server sounds intriguing.....
Would the "easy" answer be:
Get 2 Sipura 3k, one 16port switch, one/two network cards and use 3 or so ATAs for the extensions in addition to the FXSs of the 3ks. ? That would leave one or two spare slots for future needs, hah! I'd be using the LiveCD with 512M USB memory, but no hard drive, monitor, kbd, mouse etc.
Will I be able to set up voice mail saving to the USB memory ? It would be USB 1.x speeds due to old machine. |
