Trixbox/Asterisk PBX

Closed circuit to home VoIP fans...

Got the SPA3102 configured and up and working on the Asterisk PBX. FXS/POTS incoming calls at this point ring to a Ring Group of a bunch of phones. That will be changing to an IVR when I get around to getting that set up. I've set up a dial code to access the POTS line for outgoing calls.

The FXS port is also working fine and I find it can ring 2 REN 1.0 mechanical bell phones plus at least 1 electronic bell. 3 REN 1.0's were a bit much...no go...just a faint buzz from the ringer.ri

I do have one Bell System princess phone with a rotary dial....not supported, but we generally only use that phone for incoming calls.

I have a PAP2 that I need to get configured as well that will give us 2 more analog ports and allow one extension per floor of the house (including the 1 port on the 3102 box...for 3 total).

Plus the Cisco 7960s in Jerrie's office and mine yields a minimum of 5 device extensions.

Getting the SPA3102 going on both ports in both directions is non-trivial. I had to use information from a number of sources to put it all together.

If you want to see my configs, I'd be glad to share. Post a comment to the blog.
