Hello all, I'm new to asterisk. Our company wants to setup an asterisk server and will eventually move to IP centric phones, but they don't want to just throw away the old Siemens PBX, so during the process we want to integrate it with asterisk. Is it possible? and how? thanks. Lito -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Lito, We have successfully integrated an existing Siemens HiPath 4500 PBX with two Asterisk servers. On the first one we use a H.323 trunk (it needs a card on the PBX, I think it's called HG3550). It works pretty well, except for one missing feature - the callerid name is not transmitted over the link (it is a limitation of the PBX that should disappear when it is upgraded to the V3 version). The nice thing is it doesn't take any special hardware on the Asterisk server - you just have to compile and setup an H.323 channel (asterisk-oh323 works best for us). On the second one we have a Digium TE110P connected to the PBX using a PRI. It works well too, you just need the PBX to have a trunk defined and you're ready to go. We only use ten channels, so I can't say if the performance is better. In this case you need libpri and zaptel on the Asterisk. I hope this helps, Silviu --- Hello all, I'm new to asterisk.

Hello all,
I'm new to asterisk. Our company wants to setup an asterisk server and
will eventually move to IP centric phones, but they don't want to just throw
away the old Siemens PBX, so during the process we want to integrate it with
asterisk. Is it possible? and how?
thanks.
Lito

Hi, As I wrote, the HiPath needs to be upgraded to version 3 (don't ask me any details, I'm not a Siemens expert) in order to have the CallerID name passed over the H.323 link. Earlier versions (my case) ony sends and accepts the CallerId number. I have set up a workaround for calls coming to Asterisk: an AGI script sets the CallerID name according to their CallerID number by looking it up in a database. This is done in real time for every incoming call. Obviously it doesn't work for calls going from Asterisk to the HiPath.
