Asterisk 1.6.1 on openSUSE 11.1 (Part 3)

To enable asterisk to communicate with PSTN lines we should have either a VOIP-PSTN gateway or FXO card. I will not explain about VOIP-PSTN gateway, there are some service providers out there who provides this service for their customers. In my work I use Digium TDM 410P with 4 FXO port per card. There are some alternatives in the market like Sangoma, Rhino, etc, the important is we should make sure that it works with Asterisk either with dahdi driver or zaptel/zapata driver. Also if possible select the card that already has hardware echo-canceler. Echo is a problem in voip communication, and if you have card with no echo-canceler than your server CPU will busy do the job.

Just remember that Digium cards are no longer use zapata driver, and some changes has been made to the configuration file name and location, /etc/zaptel.conf become /etc/dahdi/system.conf and /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf become /etc/asterisk/chan_dahdi.conf

In the client site you can use any SIP client hardwares or softwares. Ekiga and Emphaty are the good choice for you who prefer GTK libraries and KCall and KPhone are for you who prefer Qt libraries. IP phone hardware now widely available in the market from cheap to high price, you can select any brand as long as it compatibles with Asterisk. In this project I choose Polycom IP-330, I also used Grandstream and Aastra in other implementation. In this implementation the owner also ask me to use Polycom KIRK Wireless Server 600V3 with Polycom DECT Handset 3040.

Now the time for the dialplan, extensions.conf, which is the core of asterisk implementation, as an example let me introduce you with my configuration. It is a good habit to always backup default asterisk configuration, and start the new configuration from the scratch.

My extensions.conf is:

; extensions.conf - the Asterisk dial plan
; Created by M. Edwin Z for xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
; medwinz@gmail.com                        
;                                                           
; Static extension configuration file, used by              
; the pbx_config module. This is where you configure all your
; inbound and outbound calls in Asterisk.                    
;                                                            
; This configuration file is reloaded                        
; - With the "dialplan reload" command in the CLI            
; - With the "reload" command (that reloads everything) in the CLI
;

LibreOffice Conference Indonesia 2018

In early 2018 I got a news from community that LibreOffice Indonesian Community will held a conference in Electronic Engineering Polytechnic Institute of Surabaya (EEPIS) on March 23-25, 2018. I discussed with some member of openSUSE Indonesia community and we're willing to give our hands and also to open openSUSE booth on that event. I sent the proposal to Douglas De Maio from openSUSE and he agree to give some donation for the event. On March 1st, I received some marketing material from openSUSE that we can put on our booth and distribute to the conference participant. Thanks openSUSE! LibreOffice Conference Indonesia (LOCI) 2018 is the first LibreOffice Conference in Indonesia so as a user of Libre Office  since a long time I'm so excited to attend this conference. On early morning March 23, 2018 I took the flight flying through the golden hour to Surabaya. It was still 6.00 o'clock in the morning and I'm very surprised that Darian , the local committee of...

Asterisk 1.6.1 on openSUSE 11.1 (Part 2)

In this second part I will explain step-by-step configuration to use our appliance to build an Asterisk PABX server. Without further ado, here is the list: Install the Digium card on the PCI slot Install our appliance. You can also use any linux distribution, download asterisk from its website and install it. There are several softwares I forget when I made the appliance, it is not the mandatory (dependencies) but they are useful when we want to use asterisk optimally. They are: mpg123, sox, libmad, and festival. The easiest way to install it in openSUSE is using zypper. Check it first where they reside in repositories and add the repositories accordingly. mpg123 and sox are in the packman repositoriy, libmad in OBS (please check with webpin) and festival in oss. Then as root run: "zypper install mpg123 sox libmad0 festival". It is always useful to update your installation to update repository, to make sure that all the security update is up to date. Download the ...

Asterisk 1.6.1 on openSUSE 11.1 (Part 1)

In several articles from this one, I will share some of my experience in preparing emergency operation center for disaster management in Indonesia. One of the software we implement in this project is Asterisk. I use Asterisk 1.6.1.5 from openSUSE repository. Actually I built a custom 64 bit appliance using KDE 4.3 from factory repositories through SUSE Studio and took Asterisk from openSUSE Build Service repositories. Well, it was a couple years ago (by the time I submit this post), but I believe it still useful for anyone learning Asterisk :-) I also used DAHDI (Digium Asterisk Hardware Device Interface), but during the implementation I have a problem with Indonesia PSTN telephone signaling so I should download dahdi trunk version from digium subversion server to make the digium card works. Here are the hardware I use: 2 HP tower based server with 8 GB memory (it is overkill actually, but the owner insist it) running in high availability. See the pictures here and here . 10 PS...
