asterisk users - Dec 2004 - Cisco Router FXO / Skinny

Hey,

Does anyone know how to use the cisco router with an fxo wic with
Asterisk? I don't have enough space on this device to support an IOS
that supports sip or h323. Currently the only one signaling in there
says Cisco. I assume this is the skinny protocol.

Does anyone know how to configure this 2600 with Asterisk?

Thanks,
Erik

This is Cisco's pre-SIP implementation of VoIP.

Outside of a Cisco environment it is not very useful.  I would suggest
trying to get a later image on the box.  You can always boot it using tftp
if your flash filesystem is not big enough (ie 'boot system tftp
xxxxxx').
If system memory is your problem try a later IP+ image or pull one of your
cards.

Maybe someone else can offer their config.  There are a few Cisco->Asterisk
users here.  

It would be nice to see a WIKI page on ISDN/PSTN->CISCO->Asterisk.

<drool>!

i am having voice quality issues when sipping out over a 7650 fxo
to pstn.  i sounds a bit like too much silence suppression.
