asterisk users - Jan 2004 - SS7 over Asterisk ?

Hello..

I have a customer who wants to connect 2 PBX's over IP..

The setup should look like this:


[PBX]  <-- SS7 -->  [Asterisk] <--   IAX    -->  [Asterisk]  <-- 
SS7  -->  [PBX]

Since there are no SS7 cards , I was thinking at a way of carrying the E1 data
as bulk...Can I do that ?  How ?

Is possible a scenario like this ?  I'm thinking of IAX because I don't
want to use H323 or SIP...



Thanks a lot
    Alex

If you succeed in doing this, i.e., turning asterisk into a softswitch,
you'll
be quite famous, at least to me and a few others. For background on the IPCC
softswitch and related technologies, you can browse this url:

Connecting a VoP (VoIP, VoATM, VoFR, VoMPLS) cloud to the PSTN via SS7 is one
of the great challenges, especially if you want to use open-source software from
asterisk and other projects. There are proprietary solutions, of course, but
I assume you're looking for something more cost effective since you're
using
asterisk.

Good luck. and plz post your results if you succeed.

I just started getting the following notice message and was wondering what
it meant..

 

Jan 16 15:56:11 NOTICE[240654]: File rtp.c, Line 263 (process_rfc3389):

support incomplete.  Turn off on client if possible

Hmm..
 I've searched OpenSS7 , but the asterisk projects it's
 stalled.(http://www.openss7.org/asterix.html)

 All I'm trying right now is to get raw data from the E1  (from each
 timeslot) , transmit it to another asterisk server and push it to the other
 E1..

 I don't care what's on that E1..  It's SS7 , it's PPP data ,
whatever...
 All I want is to "bridge" the timeslots..


 Thanks
     Alex
