I used to use the asterisk GUI also but found it really was causing issues
more than helping as the asterisk versions developed... FreePBX is great but
it does a lot of unnecessary-for-me voodoo with the dialplan.. I ended up
writing my own set of code that based on INI files creates a concise,
accurate, and efficient dialplan.. as well as populates the users.conf and
creates phone configs.. I found that using it on Soekris based systems with
complex setups.. lots of Menus, ring groups, various forward options etc that
it kept my CPU down...
if FreePBX could run nicely on a net5501 install id say astlinux should get
that.. however last time I looked at FreePBX it looked to be pretty intensive
with AGI scripts.. but that wasa few years ago..

Subject: Re: [Astlinux-users] Digium Asterisk-GUI
I used to use the Asterisk-GUI, but while it is good to get started, it does
not lend itself to sophisticated dialplans. So I have stopped using it and my
dialplans and conf files are now probably completely incompatible with it. It
also is clearly not getting much attention from Digium.
There are far better GUI's out there for configuring asterisk. The real
question is whether Astlinux aspires to have a fully fledged GUI-based Asterisk
setup/configuration tool, something like FreePBX. One might argue that Astlinux
is at a competitive disadvantage by not having a robust GUI for Asterisk.
