I would almost be willing to take that bet... find your exact configuration is probably not going to happen... however finding enough information to piece it together is pretty straight forward... http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1082800&page=10 This link tells you that someone else has connected asterisk to a T1 interface on a Nortel NorthStar. (first link for asterisk nortel northstar). http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+Zaptel+Installation Whould give you a start as to how to configure the T1 card (zaptel drivers). http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+config+zaptel.conf Would give you a start to configure the zaptel.conf http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-IAX Gives you the skinny (no pun intended) on IAX and working with it to set up the trunk... So it would be logical to assume that if you can connect to the nortel and asterisk can talk to asterisk via (iax or sip or anything else) ... you only need to set up an appropriate dial plan to pass extensions back and forth. In /etc/zaptel.conf: span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs bchan=1-23 dchan=24 In /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf: switchtype=national context=from-pbx2 signalling=pri_cpe group=0 channel => 1-23 [from-iax-trunk] ; yeah i know this wouldn't be recommended... exten => _X.,1,Dial(ZAP/g0/${EXTEN},20) [from-pbx2] ; still not recommended... exten => _X.,1,Dial(IAX/pbx2/${EXTEN},20) This is not "Uncharted Territory" this is thinking about something as a sum of its parts not as if "No one else has a solution just like me" > > After reviewing Adrian Carters very informative response regarding TDMoE I am > getting closer to what I need to know (now my googles include "asterisk" AND > "TDMoE"). > > This is CLEARLY uncharted territory, while I'll bet it has been done before, > no one took the time to document it. > No it isn't...

If you are LOOKING for REAL WORLD, EXACT RepReSenTAtions (sorry couldn't resist) of exactly what you have... you are probably going to be out of luck. But consider this: 1. There is plenty of ducumentation on connecting Legacy Systems to Asterisk 2. There is plenty of documentation on connect two asterisk systems to eachother. > > D > > > > >>Damon Estep a écrit : >> >> >>>Jean-Michel, >>> >>>You missed the entire point - the question is IS ASTERISK CAPABLE OF >> >>EMULATING A POINT TO POINT T1 BETWEEN 2 BOXES, AND IF SO ARE THERE ANY WEB >>BASED HINTS I MIGHT LOOK AT?
