dahdi_genconf generates configuration. It is a tool intended to help you
and not a required step.

It defaults to using mg2[1]. You can tell it to use a different echo
canceller in the configuration it generates by setting 'echo_can hpec'
in /etc/dahdi/genconf_parameters

  http://docs.tzafrir.org.il/dahdi-tools/#_sample_genconf_parameters

[1] Actually, in the Debian package I patched it to default to use
OSLEC, as it's available there and works better than mg2. The patch is
trivial:
