[Asterisk-Users] TDM400P + Asterisk + zaptel timer ?

[Samudra E. Haque]

Hello, I thought that my Digium TDM400P would be the right hardware to
support the zaptel timer, and put the following IAX.CONF entry to test,
(trunk=yes) in the example below

[VHAX]
type=peer
auth=md5
username=whoknows
jitterbuffer=yes
;trunk=yes
secret=terriblesecret
host=4.5.6.7
qualify=1200
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
allow=gsm
;allow=g711u
;allow=g711a

But, it didn't work. So I had to comment it out. When trunk=yes was set, the
following result happened, and literally the audio was very unstable.
Otherwise the system has been working great. I am using ax1*CLI> show

However, in my /dev/zap directory from original installation: (Fedora Core

[root at ax1 asterisk]#         ls -l /dev/zap
total 0

[root at ax1 asterisk]#

so, I'm puzzled, what / where is the zaptel timer supposed to be defined ?
the TDM400P has FXO and FXS interfaces and is a Digium.
