<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>>To the best
of my understanding, latest Asterisk should support it<BR>>through chan_dahdi
. No need for extra bristuff or whatever. But this<BR>>needs some
testing.</FONT><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any chance I could get some information on how to
set it up and use it (keeping in mind that I have limited Asterisk experience
and no experience with zaptel or mISDN or BRIstuff)?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have an NT1 BRI here that is up and running and
an HFC card and an F9 Linux with *1.6. The BRI can easily be moved to the
HFC card for testing. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed 1.6 from an F9 Yum distro, but I could
probably figure out how to download and make the latest from source if
necessary. I did the F9 installation and run it, but I'm not real strong
on Linux. I mostly do 80186 embedded development in C and
assembly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>>BRI there
behaves very much like PRI. No extra ptmp complications as in the rest of the
>world.</FONT><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I never dealt with PRI, so I can't say for sure,
but you are correct that it lacks ptmp, etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>>It seems, though you may
need to do some custom wiring.<BR>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>AFAIK, only that it is delivered in U form and some
cards (including mine) require S/T, but I already have a converter for
that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am anxious to get my BRI into Asterisk, I just
have been overwhelmed at the terse mISDN documentation and haven't jumped
in. Having it in dahdi would at least mean one less separate piece to mess
with. If I can get some documentation or a bit of handholding, I will take
the plunge, report any problems and document the end result (assuming it is
successful and worth documenting).</FONT></DIV>
