Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7960 sccp, Skinny and 1.4
You need to check out the chan_sccp-b mainling lists on sourceforge. There is active development in SVN but not in tarball releases. http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=chan-sccp-b-discussion It is very stable.

My only concern - my phones are Cisco 7960's (with sccp firmware 7.2 loaded) and to support them better, I remember compiling in a skinny(?) driver to replace the (from what I could tell) basic in built sccp support. After digging around a little it would appear that the original creator of the skinny driver has not done any development for ages. Simple question, has 1.4 got better native support for sccp now without having to add in anything extra to make everything work ok?, if not, is there a version that someone may have carried forward of the skinny driver that will work with 1.4?

Or, if you dont want to use outside modules use Asterisk 1.6 (which has been released as well) with the chan_skinny driver. A lot of development went into it and it's much more useable then the 1.2 version. Myself uses chan_skinny in production without too much trouble. Specially when you use the 7960 phones it's a nice setup.

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7960 sccp, Skinny and 1.4
Thanks both, The only thing I have a little concern over is that 1.6 is that its still a development release (if I understand things correctly). Stability is the main thing for me (its only a very small set up) but there are no technical people around if something were to go wrong through the day. I shall take another look at both options. Thank you Wayne. Michiel van Baak wrote: On 08:26, Fri 10 Oct 08, David Gibbons wrote: You need to check out the chan_sccp-b mainling lists on sourceforge.

No, 1.6.0 has been released. This is indeed the first public 'final' release of the 1.6 series. But it's not in beta or release-candidate anymore. Basically, it's the latest and greatest version that should be stable.

You do know it's just another daemon an a linux box right ? If you cant afford downtime you should not bet on one server, but make every part of your network redundant.
