Re: [asterisk-users] E1 Line Tapping
Thanks for answering guys! Ok, let me see if i understood. If I use the line tapping strategy I wont be able to use asterisk to do the recordings. Correct? So, i need to use the asterisk as the Man in the Middle ( I think that's the same as the back to back suggestion from Tzafrir, Isn't it? ). Ok, so every call will pass through Asterisk and I can do anything i want with it. Thats cool, but since all the calls pass through my recording box I've just created another fail point. And if someday my recording box stop responding? Is there someway to minimize that?

Re: [asterisk-users] E1 Line Tapping
You could buy two identical servers and use the device (name escapes me) that will detect one server going down and flip the ISDN traffic to the spare. Or you could just buy a really good server with redundant power supplies, raid 5, and hope for the best. Thanks, Steve Ricardo Gemignani wrote: Thanks for answering guys!

You'll have to analyze the dump later on and actually make use of it. If you work wityh asterisk (search for back to back settings) Asterisk acts as a proxy: it knows about the calls and reconnects them. Thus asterisk can provide you with CDR information, better control of what to record. e.g: you might want to make sure that the system does not record the extra calls it that are sometimes made to your home ;-) -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tzafrir ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

So say the PBX has 3 E1 ports, you need 6 on your Asterisk machine. Basically you are going to put Asterisk to interface with the PSTN on half the ports, the otehr half will continue to be the same to the PBX. You use cpe_net on PBX end of things in Asterisk,. so the PBX does not need to be re-configured. There is no need for tapping the Asterisk will just be in the middle of the PBX and PSTN. ___ Sign up now for AstriCon 2007!
