[Asterisk-Users] SER and Asterisk

I read about SER and I have installed Asterisk on one machine. 
Unfortunately this machine is broken and the replacement will take 
longer as I wished.

I have a P-4, 1GHz with 1 GB RAM, which was planned to be used as SER 
anyway. I would like to use this downtime of the Asterisk box to install 
SER.

I understand that SER and Asterisk can work together, while SER makes 
connection, Asterisk will add features.
How do I do that efficiently?

1. SER needs a public IP, does then Asterisk need a pulic IP, or can it 
just be on the internal LAN?

2. Now the password for each phone is made in the SIP and IAX config 
files. How can I do that than in SER? If I use reatime, can I use the 
same database?

3. A user can make a phone call to the users on our system (Asterisk 
domain) and via gateways. We use ASTCC for billing. How can I use this 
together with SER.
I am not sure if I understand it correct, but would for internal calls 
(calls without features) be handeled directly from SER, while if the 
user need a feature, than he would be transfered to Asterisk? How can I 
setup multiple Asterisk boxes with one SER, but all Asterisk machines 
share the same dial plan (realtime)

I wanted to read more first, but the down time of my * forces me to do a 
SER setup faster, so that my users can quickly (by office hours Monday) 
at least make internal calls.

Any hint is welcome ;-)


bye

Ronald
