45.4. Example of IAX configuration

Figure 45.1. Configuration scheme

Configuration scheme

In the figure there are the following elements:

The purpose is:

In this example suppose that the POTS cards, used to manage the analog phones and configured for Cluster and CtiLink for compressed phone calls, are already active on Abilis.

45.4.1. Configuration of the CTIIAX resource

Activate the CTIIAX resource in the Abilis of “Site 1” and enable up to 15 IAX connections.

45.4.2. Users configuration

Activate the two IAX users in the Abilis of “Site 1” (the IAX phone and the PC with Zoiper) and one IAX user in the Abilis of “Site2” (Asterisk).

45.4.2.1. “IaxPhone” user configuration.l

Add the user in the Abilis of “Site 1” and enable it to IAX :

  • to connect the IAX users and the analog phone connected to the POTS on the Abilis of “Site 1”;

  • to connect the IAX users and the analog phone connected to the POTS of “Site 2”;

  • to forward the input calls of the ISDN line toward the remote Asterisk, in case the POTS telephone of Abilis is busy or doesn't answer after 20 seconds.

45.4.4.1.1. Communication between the IAX users.

Add the routing:

The PR:6 routing routes toward port 101 (analog phone) the calls coming from the ISDN line (CTIP:34). In case the telephone is busy or doesn't answer after 20 seconds (T301:20), the call is forwarded to the next routing (NEXT:TRANSFERT).

The PR:7 routing routes the calls toward the Site 2 cluster; the numbers starting with 7 are sent to the remote Asterisk.

45.4.4.2. CTI Routings of Abilis of “Site 2

The purpose is:

  • to connect the analog phone of “Site2” and the IAX users of the Abilis of “Site 1”;

  • to forward to Asterisk the calls coming from “Site 1” in case of the remote analog phone is busy or doesn't answer.

45.4.4.2.1. Communication between the IAX users and the remote analog phone.

The PR:3 routing routes toward CTIIAX resource the calls coming from any cluster; when the called number starts with 7 the Ctilax routing table forwards the call toward to Asterisk.

Asterisk offers many options :

  • answering service (saves the messages and sends them as mail enclosures);

  • virtual answering service ( in case the called number gives no answer, Asterisk sends a mail containing the calling number with data and time);

  • operator service;

  • ...

[Tip]Tip

Asterisk offers many solutions of advanced call management (conference, answering service, operator service…); to every service you can assign a specific code and manage them with a single routing.

The PR:3 routing forwards to Asterisk all the calls starting with 7: Configuring the routing of the remote Abilis,the answering service can be assigned to number 701, the conferences to number 750, the operator to number 711, etc…

The calls converge toward this Abilis, the PR:3 routing allows the matching, and Asterisk manages the calls depending on the selected number.
