I am putting together a solution that will employ the Digium TE410P with one T1 going out the PSTN and the other front-ending a PBX. The idea is that based on a URL, Asterisk will dial an employee behind the PBX. When the employee picks up, Asterisk will dial the customer (detailed in the URL). I am assuming Asterisk can work with Apache (through AGI maybe) to dial the employee and then connect to the customer via info in the URL (or related through some sort of DB lookup). Another requirement will be to record the phone call as well. I have worked a bit with Asterisk and am very happy with what it can do -- and would prefer to stay with Asterisk. The question is, can Asterisk handle what my requirements are or would this better be served by Bayonne? -- Steve Woolley IT Manager ADS Telecom, Inc. 59 Skyline Drive Suite 1250 Lake Mary, Florida 32746 Phone: (407)682-6226 x1110 Fax: (407)682-3455 Cell: (321)229-5311 swoolley@adstelecom.com www.adstelecom.com
