ken ,
i too have a comdial analog pbx. i'm running a seperate vm system and would like to migrate to asterisk. right now, my comdial
hands off calls via serial connections to my vm box. i don't really know what i'm talking about, but i'd like to find a solution whereby i could accept the T1s (2 in my case) to an asterisk server, route calls to vm as necessary and then hand station calls out to my existing PBX. some clients could be converted over to new IP phones or software based phones (customer service, if quality is good enough) and some clients would remain analog.
if anyone is doing this (or a similar but proven and technically correct workflow) let me know.

Hi! I've got a Comdial PBX that I would dearly love to replace with an
Asterisk box. However, for various reasons, it appears not to be in the
cards. Regardless of what management does, or does not, want, our
current VM solution -- some Dialogic card with a "KeyVoice" application
-- is dying. I'm 90% sure it's hardware. I'd rather shoot myself than
replace the hardware. Is there any way to get Asterisk to respond to
whatever mechanism it is that the Comdial puts out to the Dialogic?
Things I've already tried and discarded:
DID: the PBX strips off the DID stuff before it gets to the Asterisk box
Caller ID: ibid.
So, I'm guessing that there's some, for lack of a better word, protocol
that must be standardized to some extent, that allows things like the
Comdial PBX to talk to someone else's VM solution. Can Asterisk play ball?
Thanks!
-Ken
