It will be in the /etc/asterisk/*.conf file for the appropriate calling 
technology.  So if the calls are going over a SIP trunk, it will be in 
sip.conf .  You want

disallow=all
allow=alaw

There probably will be some other allow= lines; just stick a semicolon in 
front of the ones you do *not* want, to comment them out.  Then issue

core reload

in Asterisk CLI, and all your calls should be A-law from now on.
