8th February 2006 Asterisk - The Open Source PBX Talk and Demonstration by Tony Friis We had a good meeting on Wednesday. Tony obtained a projector, which impressed the audience. They could all see what was going on. (except when Tony stood in the way!). The demonstration was set up with a PC running Asterisk, a laptop running xten with two connections, an extension to the Asterisk box and a remote sip connection to the plusnet sip registered by Tony. There were phones and speakers all over the room, and a total of 14 sockets in use! The slides covered most of the Asterisk configuration in brief and the Dialplans extremely briefly, but a good overview was available with handy illuminations of VoIP, sip, IP telephones, Asterisk trunk lines and the failures apparent when the broadband connection goes down. The assistance of a second slide show from the Hants lug was also enlightening. There were questions and discussion throughout, and the audience certainly felt there understanding had been improved on this wide ranging subject. Some amusements were added by listening to a few of the sound messages available as part of the distribution - over 2000 in all. These ranged from the obligatory "Hello World" to "There's nobody to answer your call at present; They're all recovering from a hangover" and "She's doesn't seem to be at her desk, the naughty girl". ---- Well, it sounds better with an American accent. A good time was had by all. |
