[Asterisk-Users] ZAP and IAX Trunks

[Walid Azab]

Thanks Dean..
 
Well, about the hardware then. What do you recommend for beginning with
Asterisk. I intend to use Cisco 7940s/7960s with Asterisk.
Also which software is recommended to enable Soft phone on users PCs?
 
Regards,
Walid

Hi Walid,

Welcome to the list.

 

Zap are the connections from ordinary pstn (or telco lines) to your digium
hardware.

IAX is an Asterisk protocol for incoming lines via IP from another asterisk
PABX.

 

Hope this helps.

Dean

Hello Everyone,

 

I have recently come across these two terms. I am new at Asterisk and do
appreciate your assistance in this. Some tools such as "astGUIclient" and
"Asterisk Management Portal" require that the phone system be running Zap or
IAX trunks as well as SIP devices. SIP devices are understadable but what
about the other two? I am planning to use Cisco 7960/7940 IP phones.

 

Thanks

Walid
