Hi Kevin, I've already proposed your solution (is the most reasonable) but they have more than 60 analogs lines (no faxes) and some of them terminate in appliances like alarms, etc, so the solution must not touch in any way the connection between the line and his termination: doing a analog to digital conversion, passing it to asterisk and the convert it back to analog is prone to problems (what if asterisk crashes? or if a gateway fail?). I can split the existing lines (there are no complex things like adsl or digital signaling), convert the branches to digital and terminate then into an asterisk machine, so any failure will not affect the old circuit, but of course I've to configure asterisk to ONLY LOG calls and nothing more. This is what they want: - line 1 ring - line 1 is splitted in two, the first branch (let's say the "analog" branch) go to an analog phone, that rings - the second branch go through a gateway and then to asterisk - asterisk log (with an AGI for example) "line 1 rings at .... from ...." no more is required from asterisk, if someone answer the analog phone or not is not my business. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- Check out the new Asterisk community forum at: https://community.asterisk.org/ New to Asterisk?
