You just about answered your own question here, different codes for each manufacturer is not equal to standard. Asterisk has support for analog phones, and digital trunking via E1/T1 circuits. This allows you to interconnect to phone systems that might use digital phones. You can also use it via a channel bank to link large amounts of lines to asterisk. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
