Eivind Most obvious solution is snmp. Using snmp you can collect statistics and provision your remote systems. However, SNMP is an enabler and not the full solution. You still need to write SMUX agents and develop application MIBS that allow you to get/store application specific data. To my knowledge Asterisk does not support any MIB reporting to date. You will need to extend asterisk with scripts and applications to provide you the data. Most of scripting tools like perl or php have good support for SNMP.

The goal of the project is to have a unified VoIP-system to replace the disorganized collection of legacy PBX in use today. By "distributed organization" I mean an organization that consists of many, dispersed units, each with it's own existing telephony system, and with distinct number series. The goals of a unified system are several: - Lower traffic cost through a common backbone between sites and a common exit-point to the PSTN (either via IP or legacy lines). - Lower admin cost through unified, centralized management. - Added value through rollout of applications (voicemail, conferencing, IVR) that become globally available in the system. My main concern is manageability. From what I have seen of the available management tools there are none that address the needs of a distributed system. They all seems aimed at the SMB market, and don't leverage resources such as LDAP directories. Does anyone have any experience with management tools for Asterisk in a similar scenario? I am also very interrested in getting in touch with people working in similar projects. There is a large political element in rolling out Open Source telephony on such a scale, and having a network of similar projects could be of great value. I hope to be able to post to this list on our progress.
