Re: [asterisk-users] MWI from Asterisk to Meridian
Hi. Tks. What it is TAPI license and how much we have to pay for that? Cris. From: (AstATN) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussionasterisk-users@lists.digium.com To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] MWI from Asterisk to Meridian Date: Fri, 4 Aug 2006 09:34:55 +0800 If it's control by serial port, you need TAPI license, and need some investigation period to integrate with Nortel system. ( you have to pay for the license, if your system can do so. ) Cheers. Andrew: The key here is try to create a way to integrate Asterisk Voicemail with existing Meridian PBX and send the MWI to M2616. I'm investigating the propietary protocol used by Nortel in the integration between Octel-Dialogic and Meridian for MWI. I believe is good idea to create an appl (and execute that appl in voicemail.conf like external application) for connect to the Meridian console port (Serial interface) and send the command to the end M2616.

Re: [asterisk-users] MWI from Asterisk to Meridian
May be you can build an application which controls the background terminal of the Meridian. (This would be a serial connection to the M1) This application sends background commands like: se mw 3000.

Re: [asterisk-users] MWI from Asterisk to Meridian
From voicemail.conf: ; If you need to have an external program, i.e. /usr/bin/myapp ; called when a voicemail is left, delivered, or your voicemailbox ; is checked, uncomment this: ;externnotify=/usr/bin/myapp Maybe this approach can send the commands to the M1.
