One very important rule to remember is that you want your shaping to be
the bottleneck. Your modem can prioritize all it wants, but if it just
sends out packets as fast as it can, the bottleneck is going to be upstream
and typically ISPs have very large queues. So the prioritized packets may
still end up sitting behind a lot of low priority packets and be subject
to be being dropped. To do a good job, the modem needs to know what the
upstream bandwidth limits are and make sure to stay a bit below that limit
when sending packets out. Inbound policing is harder to do as you are on
the wrong side of the bottleneck. You can still have some effect, but you
have to typically give up a significant (5-20%) of your bandwidth to get
things to work well.

The LARTC document is a good (if a bit dated - notably IFB is prefered over
IMQ for doing ingress shaping) source of information on this topic.

You could also put a Sangoma S518[1] into a Linux box and completely
forgo a separate DSL modem.  Linux has some pretty good QoS mechanisms
if you can figure them out.  The S518 is fairly stable too, I have
problems every now and then that require a reboot of my router box but
it's been a long time since I updated the drivers.

Instead of using a DSL router, you might use a DSL modem connected to a
wireless router with some openwrt
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WRT54G#Third-party_firmware_projects) type
software on it. This will give you all of the power of linux with respect to
traffic shaping.

I used a Linux box with two Ethernet cards installed.  Linux
makes a very nice firewall.  I used this www.shorewall.net to
configure the Linux firewall.  Shorewall is very powerfull and
a little bit "cisco-like" in the way you set up zones and rules.

Any low-end PC can make a good router but you can also run other things
on the PC at the same time.

wich is the best xDSL router with QoS and prioritization that will allow 
a decent number of VoIP Lines (4 or more) to be used even if all people 
are downloading via FTP and eMule to be used with OpenPBX?

At the moment even if the router claim to support QoS i had very bad 
experiences, basically if someone is using eMule you cannot use VoIP 
lines at all.

Unlikely. So far, the notion has been not to follow but to gradually  
move away from Asterisk.

I think you will find the consensus is that the Asterisk Manager API  
is as bad as it gets and that it should be removed altogether.

> if not  give me some idea what's do youthibk about opbx gui

There is a design document in the SVN repository for a replacement of  
the manager API. The replacement architecture is based on a server- 
agent-client model and it accommodates different agents speaking  
different protocols to remote clients. This way it would be possible  
to build a GUI that speaks -say- SOAP to an agent which in turn talks  
to the telephony server locally over a domain socket, like so:

[server] ---domain-socket--- [agent] ---SOAP--- [client-GUI]

The document explains this in more detail. If I remember correctly,  
it is in a branch called "opbx-cli" right at the top level of the SVN  
tree.

Hi all,

I;m interesting about asterisk-gui
If someone plan to port from asterisk .1.4 (manager and http) to opbx
please let's me know i and team can help you.
