asterisk users - Jan 2006 - AVM C4, asterisk-1.0.8, /etc/asterisk/capi.conf

Has anyone a working /etc/asterisk/capi.conf example for Germany or  
Switzerland using the AVM C4 - ISDN Card.

I try to connect asterisk to 3 wires BRI-ISDN (Swisscom).

I appreciate your help and it would save me a lot of time, figuring  
it out by myself.

regards, Claudio

And the corresponding /etc/isdn/capil.conf
# card          file    proto   io      irq     mem     cardnr  options
c4              /usr/lib/c4.bin DSS1    -       -       -       -
c4              -       DSS1    -       -       -       -
c4              -       DSS1    -       -       -       -
c4              -       DSS1    -       -       -       -

The file /usr/lib/c4.bin had been extracted from the SuSE drivers on the 
AVM download page.


I am using the just 2 of the 4 ports on the card right now.

HTH and if you have questions, feel free.

BTW: I am using chan_capi-cm of sourceforge.

We are using 4 BRI channels in Germany connected to a AVM C4. We are using
PTP (Anlagenanschluss). You will need another config for PTMP
(Mehrger?teanschluss).

I hope this will help you a bit.
