Feel free to ask me any questions if you have any issues come up along the way. The sample chan_dahdi.conf has a section with an example of an SS7 setup in it, for reference on configuration.

[asterisk-users] GSM and SS7 Questions
I have two questions for the group. #1 - I'm looking to use some GSM SIM cards with my Asterisk PBX. Can anyone recommend a gateway? I need about 10-15 SIM slots. #2 - I'm also looking to connect Asterisk to an SS7 signaled DS1 (24 channels) for inbound and outbound voice calls. Can anyone offer any suggestions for cards to use there? -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] GSM and SS7 Questions
In regard to #2, any T1 card should work. But the problem is you need SS7 software and SS7 connectivity in addition to the T1 card.

Cary Fitch Sangoma has both - the card and the software. I think you have to dedicate a box to SS7 though... j -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
