similar to: asterisk server as a voicemail server forlegacyPBX -- FXO or FXS???

Hey All, I'll be configuring an asterisk box to be the voicemail server to an old Merlin system which had an octel 100 voicemail server that is now dying. My question is simple: do I need to stick an FXO card in the asterisk box? My logic is that if the Merlin Magix system is actually generating electrical current, then I would need to have an fxo card. Is this correct?

I believe it will be hooked up to extension lines. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Paul Hales Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 8:15 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk server as a voicemail server forlegacy PBX -- FXO or FXS???

Hi List, Merlin Magix hardware v02 I'm trying to get asterisk to act as a voicemail server for a lucent merlin magix PBX that we purchased used. We have 4 FXO channels between the two PBXs on a Sangoma A200 card. The 770 dialgroup is working properly, in that calls to 770 are answered by Asterisk. The magix is sending mode codes in the format #XX#XXX#, where the 2nd block of digits

Management just approved purchase of a Digium T100P and a T1 card for our Merlin Legend Switch. I will appreciate comments from anyone performing this installation before: - Which T1 card did you use in the Merlin Legend? - Did you require any special interface? (CSU/DSU, etc) - Any items to watch during installation. Also we will need to remove one of our old analog Trunk cards to accomodate

Thank you all for the voicemail cards you sent. If you have the following in PDF or laying around (scan): * AT&T/Cingular flow voicemail card * Verizon flow voicemail card * Sprint flow voicemail card * TMobile flow voicemail card * Alltel flow voicemail card * Avaya Nortel Octel flow voicemail card * Comedian Mail (Asterisk) -- I have the flow, need a card if someone has one I will work on

If anyone could help me with this, I'd appreciate it! I've got an Asterisk deployment where I'd like to use an existing external Octel voicemail system. I've been trying to define an extension that if the call isn't answered in a few rings, to dial our external voicemail number. That voicemail system works by seeing the CALLED number and routing the call to the

I was just reviewing MAGIX Music Studio, and it advertises that it exports Ogg Vorbis. Does this mean I can have all the benefits of the Ogg Vorbis codec without having to learn how to "do" Ogg Vorbis"? I am simply interested in reducing the size of my standard .wav files. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello List, the most recent BIOS (A13) for the Dell Latitude E6520 has problems - gpxelinux (4.05) cannot load larger initrd (or memdisk images) with this BIOS and fails with "Not enough memory to load specified image". This results in a few of our boot images (most importantly the Backup Rescue image (and parted magix pxe version)) failing. A12 BIOS works okay. So at the moment we

Is anyone else finding in the new audio files that the longer space at the beginning and end of the files tends to be extremely irritating? An excellent example is when going into voicemail and Allison says how many messages you have, the space between the files is annoyingly long: you have ...... four ...... old ...... messages ..and.. first ...... message ...... received .....

Hello, everybody: I'm developing an application using Asterisk and a TDM-400 card. I understand the concept of the difference between GSM and WAV files when using Asterisk, but I'm not happy with the sound quality with the GSM compression. It's merely *acceptable* for a telephone call, but for anything else, it leaves something to be desired. Case in point -- if you compare the

Hello: I've been wrestling with an integration issue for which there also seems to be one piece missing. I'm hoping someone on this list can help. Due to a complete lack of cooperation from our current voice provider we are in need of an alternative way to access our Octel 350 voicemail system from our SIP (SER) proxy. I can redirect and relay calls to numerous destinations via

Hello all. I am a little (allot) lost on my next hurdle in getting an asterisk system built. I would like to get my asterisk servers configured exclusively from database. I have read through the wiki on this subject but once again I find that there is a certain level of knowledge that is assumed. As of now I know nothing about databases in general and specifically MYSQL. I do not know

Hello, I am looking to replace my company's Avaya Merlin Magix system with an Asterisk based PBX when our current lease is up. I had a meeting with upper management yesterday, and they would like some assurance that other companies are running Asterisk with success. We are a relatively small company, with about 70 total extensions. I would be purchasing a Dell Poweredge 2850

Colleagues, We're in the process of standardizing on Sprint PCS and Cingular phones on a national basis (~ 50 properties, 1000's of lines). I manage an Asterisk install at one location. I've been looking at the Multitech CellFinder CDMA for Sprint as a dial backup solution. Basically, it's a CDMA to POTS gateway, tied to a PCS account. We would see it as a trunk line and I

How often do you guys see Event 6 and 8 on your PRI? (aka "HDLC Abort" and "HDLC Bad FCS") Is this normal? I would think not. bkw

Hello all, long time lurker, first time poster. I have a situation that has been confounding me for the better part of a week. I run an internal mirror of a Centos mirror, mainly because I have lots of hosts and low bandwidth. For my 7.x hosts, since 7.5.1804 was released, when I do a ?yum update?, I get the following errors on a number of files. "Package does not match intended download.

We have had quite a bit of success with our T100P and TE410P cards interfacing to Nortel Meridian PBXes and also to a Livingston Portmaster 3 using ESF/B8ZS and various combinations of E&M wink and ISDN PRI (usually in 5ESS mode). In the near future, I may also need to interface to a Definity via a T1. I was planning to use PRI--is that an option for you on your switch? -----Original
