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).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

planning to use PRI--is that an option for you on your
switch?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Integration with Lucent Definity
g3si<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi everyone, </FONT></P>
<P> <FONT face=Arial size=2>We have
been working with Asterisk for a while now and would really like to expand its
capabilities by fully integrating it with our Definity g3si and are wondering
about other peoples experiences with similar setups. Thus far we have only
been able to achieve a partial 1 way integration, but ultimately would love to
route inbound voip calls to the asterisk out of the lucent. Obviously the
tighter the integration we can get the better we can leverage our
existing resources and start migrating aspects of our operations to voip
entirely. Comments and suggestions from you definity experts out there are
very appreciated.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>The setup:</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Asterisk 0.7.0 on a vanilla gentoo box with a
configured T100P digium card hooked up directly without csu to a TN464 DS1
interface card. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>With alot of experimentation it connects (With some
timing sync issues) with the following settings on the DS1:</FONT> <BR><FONT
face=Arial size=2>Bit rate: 1.544</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>line
coding: ami-basic</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>line compensation:

detect: n</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>near-end CSU type: other</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>We then set up a trunk group, but I believe because
of the limitations of the card/setup we can only use group type: co which
limits us to outbound on the trunk, or inbound to 1 mapped extension, no DID
or more advanced switching. The temporary solution to this has been to use
some of the lucents built in vectoring capabilities to send specific
extensions to the asterisk. Any recommendations for increasing our
integration? Cards/setup etc? Thanks very much. Being able to send voip calls
on the asterisk to queues on the Lucent would be fantastic.</FONT></P><BR>
