I found this config on how to make an AS5300 work with SER for sip.
I'm sure you'll have to do a little adaptation to make it work with
asterisk, but it should be fairly close:

Cisco documentation can be a little to generalized sometimes, but
here's their answer:

As for the Cisco-specific call routing stuff, I can't help you there.
I've never used one of their gateways, but their Smartnet Contracts
are pretty cheap, and Cisco support is really good.
