Re: [beagleboard] Asterisk server on BBB

2014-08-16 Thread Artie Lekstutis
In case anyone else is interested in running an Asterisk server on the 
BBB I've found that http://www.beaglebone-asterisk.org performs fairly 
well. Even better than on one of my older x86 systems. After doing some 
testing I'm ready for an initial deployment. Looks like it should be 
able to handle at least 6 simultaneous calls, which is more than I'll 
ever need. I'll post updates if I find anything interesting (good or bad).


It's running on a 64G micro-SD card:
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Asterisk 11.8.0
FreePBX 2.11.0.35

Later,
Artie

The distribution http://www.beaglebone-asterisk.org/ is currently
my focus. Is there anything I should know about it (good or bad)?
Is there anything better for such use?

My occupation is embedded systems, not IT. I'd prefer to have a
reasonable GUI to manage the configuration where possible. FreePbx
seems to provide that in place of Trixbox. Not that I'm afraid of
scripting or re-building kernels, I just have other things to do too.

Thanks!
