Hi,
I have read quitea bit of the available resources and have this idea of asterisk. Would someone kindly answer these briefly
1-) Asterisk does not need a sound card...but if i am to record voice into an extension or dial from CLI ( basically use asterisk itself as a softphone ) then i need a sound card. : Yes/No
Yes
a-) If yes creative soundblaster pci 128 is my best bet. Yes/No
Sorry, can't comment.
2-) Which is the best codec to use with different softphones a-) SJphone : b-) Lipz4 : c-) Gnophone :
Sorry, I don't know. I would recommend trying the different ones available.
3-) Hardphones need to be plugged into the DSL router ( basically need an internet conn ) ... and need no digium cards.
a-) for recieving calls : Yes/No
They don't need digium cards. Depending on your network setup, you could probably get away without an internet connection for them as long as your asterisk box has connectivity.
b-) for making calls : Yes/no
See above answer
4-) Sofphones run on machines different from the one running asterisk and can connect to asterisk , which routes the different phones according to contexts. Yes / no
yes
5-) Softphone can run on the same machine as asterisk and register the same way as if they were ona different machine : yes /no
yes
6-) Softphones can behave as independent sip phones without asterisk.
Yes, at least if I understand you correctly.
Thanks niko
