asterisk users - Jan 2006 - How to set-up LCR

How to set-up LCR ?

a. which companies can be used with LCR?
b. how to set-up & maintain LCR?
c. multiple connection to one gateway?


Example:
+886223456789    could be reachable via
a.  ENUM   free
b.  Dundi    free
c.  Voipstunt   free
d.  Voipbuster   free
e.  Nufone   $
f.  Voipstunt  $
g.  others with 4 concurrent connections $$
h.  others with 3 concurrent connections $$

I am looking for a way, that covers all above.
Voipstunt would get multiple accounts, whereby some are ONLY for free 
calls, and the others for paid connection. That way I do not need to 
check all the time the free connection.

Has anybody done already some parts of that?

Easy!

sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Asterisk::LCR'


Then create a directory in which to work in, such as:

mkdir /tmp/lcr


Once you're in this directory, create a config file such as:

  [comparer]
  package  = Asterisk::LCR::Comparer::XERAND
  currency = eur
  
  [dialer]
  package  = Asterisk::LCR::Dialer::MinCost
  locale   = fr 
  
  [import:voipjet]
  package  = Asterisk::LCR::Importer::VoIPJet
  dial     = us IAX2/login@voipjet/REPLACEME
  
  [import:nufone]
  package  = Asterisk::LCR::Importer::NuFone
  dial     = us IAX2/login@NuFone/REPLACEME


Then run successively:

  asterisk-lcr-import myconfig.cfg
  asterisk-lcr-build myconfig.cfg
  asterisk-lcr-dialplan myconfig.cfg >lcr.conf


move lcr.conf in /etc/asterisk, and include it in your existing dial 
plan using:

  #include "lcr.conf"
> a. which companies can be used with LCR?
At the moment, NuFone, PlainVoIP, RichMedium and VoIPJet are supported. 
Virtually any company which offers publically downloadable CSV rate 
files can be added. If you know anymore downloadable CSV files please 
tell me and I will add it to the program.

Repeat steps above, reload dialplan.

Write a custom CSV file for your free connections and an import module 
for Asterisk::LCR. You can find the docs here:

Feel free to peek at the code.
