Dear PaulH, I have 5 PSTN Lines going into my legacy PBX. There is an active IVR present on legacy PBX which the client wants to keep. So what I have to do is:
1. Install 10 Port i.e 5-FXO/5-FXS card on asterisk machine. 2. Insert All those PSTN directly to my 5-Port FXO. 3. Take out 5-FXS Port lines and insert them into my legacy PBX. 4. Since as I mentioned previously that my client wants to keep its IVR intact on its Legacy system so I will not be handling IVR in my Asterisk Dialplan. 5. when the call arrives at asterisk....what should I do?? Should I simply call Dial(FXS channel) or something else. Kindly provide some info regarding Step 5.

Basically, you run the phone lines into the asterisk box, then out of the Asterisk system into the PABX. This works reasonably well, and gives you the option to migrate to a full asterisk setup in the future.
