If you haven't purchased the cards yet, I would suggest that at the point you think you need 2 ports that you purchase the 4 port card. The cost isn't that much more incrementally and then leaves you twice the expansion in spare. For configuring the cards, you just need to make a new span declaration. and then configure the next 24 channels. For the signaling, you would probably want to loopstart with disconnect supervision, in asterisk this is listed as kewlstart. This will make sure that when you hang up the line asterisk will know it. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Example would be - zaptel.conf - span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs E&M=1-24 span-2,1,0,esf,b8zs fxoks=1-24 zapata.conf signalling=fxo_ks context=blah group=1 channel => 1-24 Then the channel bank would follow the same theory for the Line code and framing? -gcc _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
