I read about it in the WIKI, but I couldn't find enought information to understand what it is actually doing. Can someone point me to the right direction? I would do this: Create a single numbering plan for all users on your network Get each server to have extensions from 1-999. Then assign to each server its code. Depending on how many servers you have (or will have) you could use 1-9 or 11-99 or more but you must have server's code number of digits same accross your network. Now , get all these servers link/register to each other using IAX. Stephen, is right DO NOT use TDMoE for this purpose. As to TDMoE, my understanding (I have not tried it) is that it uses FULL bandwidth assigned at all times. Can your IP connectivity cope with that? Once you have this setup, your local users (users registered to same server) can call each by dialing local extension(1-999). Network users on the other hand need to know FULL dialing digits for a network user. For example a user from server A need to know FULL number ($SERVER CODE + LOCAL EXTENSION) for all other network users. This number users will give each other or you can make it available to all users by some other method.

TDMoE has a limitation of X channels per link, and some people have noted troubles when trying to use more than one TDMoE circuit. IAX has no trouble talking to mulitple places and multiple calls. ___ 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

The switch command is helpful in tieing multiple machines together. Switch allows you to have one asterisk machine ask another if it can complete a call. Think of it a bit like a remote include. Basically from a context on machine A, you set up a switch statement to machine B in a specific context. Whenever machine B says it can complete the call, you end up with an implied IAX call to machine B. -- Steven Critchfield [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ 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

[Asterisk-Users] TDMoE questions
Hello, I want to link several * boxes together. Some of them are dedicated as user servers (SIP and IAX clients connect to them) and some are used as PRI servers (where the PRIs are hooked onto). I think TDMoE is the only channel type where you can group different Interfaces into a single group. E.g. for using Dial(ZAP/g1/12345), I think you cannot group different IAX accounts and use them via Dial(IAX/g1/12345). Or am I wrong?? So I looked at the WIKI and it shows an example using em signalling. What other signallings are supported by TDMoE? How many TDMoE trunks with 30 channels each may I run on a 100 Mbit/s LAN dedicated to TDMoe???

Re: [Asterisk-Users] TDMoE questions
Hi, Unless you have a very large configuration, the bandwidth of a 100Mbps ethernet will not be the issue. Theoretically you could have 10 E1's worth of TDMoE traffic on a single 100Mbps wire. I have sucessfully used EuroISDN with one 31 channel TDMoE (E1 is 32 64Kbps channels, where one is used for framming, so you have 31 useable channels). You could use Trunked IAX2 as well, the advantage is to avoid cross-coding, as TDMoE can only use uLaw/aLaw, while trunked IAX2 can use any useable Asterisk codec. However TDMoE to PRI/FXS/FXO connections are more efficient, as they can use zaptel bridging.
