Compiling Asterisk - chinaroby.com

  Compiling Asterisk Once you've compiled and installed the zaptel and libpri packages (if you need them), you can move on to Asterisk . This section walks you through a standard installation and introduces some of the alternative make arguments that you may find useful. We'll also look at how you can edit the Makefile to optimize the compilation of Asterisk. 3.5.1. Standard Installation Asterisk is compiled with gcc through the use of the GNU make program. Unlike many other programs, there is no need to run a configuration script for Asterisk. To get started compiling Asterisk, simply run the following commands (replace version with your version of Asterisk): # cd /usr/src/asterisk- version # make clean # make # make install # make samples Be aware that compile times will vary between systems. On a current-generation processor, you shouldn't need to wait more than five minutes. At Astricon, someone reported successfully compiling ...

About VoIP -9 Integration into global telephone number system

  About VoIP Integration into global telephone number system While the traditional Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) and mobile phone networks share a common global standard (E.164) which allocates and identifies any specific telephone line, there is no widely adopted similar standard for VoIP networks. Some allocate an E.164 number which can be used for VoIP as well as incoming/external calls. However, there are often different, incompatible schemes when calling between VoIP providers which use provider specific short codes.

About VoIP--3 : Implementation

 About VoIP Implementation Because UDP does not provide a mechanism to ensure that data packets are delivered in sequential order, or provide Quality of Service guarantees, business VoIP implementations face problems dealing with latency and jitter. This is especially true when satellite circuits are involved, due to long round trip propagation delay (400 milliseconds to 600 milliseconds for geostationary satellite). The receiving node must restructure IP packets that may be out of order, delayed or missing, while ensuring that the audio stream maintains a proper time consistency. This functionality is usually accomplished by means of a jitter buffer. Another challenge is routing VoIP traffic through firewalls and address translators. Private Session Border Controllers are used along with firewalls to enable VoIP calls to and from a protected enterprise network. Skype uses a proprietary protocol to route calls through other Skype peers on the network, allowing it to traverse symme...

What Are Some Advantages of VoIP?

  What Are Some Advantages of VoIP? Because Internet Voice is digital, it may offer features and services that are not available with a traditional phone. If you have a broadband internet connection, you need not maintain and pay the additional cost for a line just to make telephone calls. With many Internet Voice plans you can talk for as long as you want with any person in the world (the requirement is that the other person has an Internet connection).  You can also talk with many people at the same time without any additional cost. IP PBX Asterisk , Voice over Internet Protocol, also called VoIP, IP Telephony , Internet telephony, Broadband telephony, Broadband Phone and Voice over Broadband is the routing of voice conversations over the Internet or through any other IP-based network.

What is IVR ?

  What is IVR ? IVR (Interactive Voice Response) The Digital Receptionist menu within the FreePBX interface provides for Interactive Voice Response (IVR) menus. A well designed IVR system is one of the key features that can give a company a very professional appearance. An example of an IVR menu would go like this: "Thank you for calling American Widgets, for sales press 1, for support press 2, for a company directory press the pound key, or you may dial an extension at any time" FreePBX interface allows us to easily build complex, multi-branching voice menus to help route callers to appropriate departments. For example, once a user presses "2" for support, another menu will ask the user to "press 1 for the Presidio model line, press 2 for the Pendleton model line". Using the IVR menu system, we can route any valid key sequence to another me...
