David, I do this with a Toshiba Strata DK280. The model before the CTX. You shouldn't have any problem doing this with the CTX either. Assuming you don't have SMDI integration with your voicemail (you didn't state that you did), you just need the phones to send trailing digits, and you need to negotiate the lighting of voicemail lights on phones. All manageble from Asterisk. As for hardware, you mention you only need 4 ports now. You could get a tdm400 card, but you would max that out with the first install. Like most of us here who have messed with Asterisk, this is only the *first* application that you have. There will be more, I promise! Do yourself a favor and look at a T100p and an Adit 600 with 8 (or more) FXS ports. You're intial investment will be about $800 bucks, but it will prepare you to do more with the Asterisk->Toshiba integration. Good luck, and do some wiki reading. -Chuji _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
