The 7914 only works under SCCP; the SIP firmware does not support it at
all (the expansion panel won't even power on fully.) The SCCP channel
driver under Asterisk doesn't really support the 7914 very well,
currently it will only show onhook/offhook state (though there has been
much discussion rece
Asterisk does not work very well in a VM
due to the timeslicing. Dropped calls, jittery audio and echo can all creep in.
Good news is that an AD controller runs
just fine in VMware. Just make sure the box has enough RAM to keep it happy,
and use a physical second disk for the Windows in
I spent quite a bit of time debugging the
7935/7936, and it is an issue inside the firmware that Cisco knows how to work
around in CallManager. There are better conference phone options available, and

It is almost always better to use a single T1/E1 card when possible to
avoid conflicts. A Digium TE2XXP series card sounds like what you would
need. The price is usually less than buying 2 single cards.
The server itself is fine. It has 2 PCI slots, so if you went with a
single card you would be a
The 8.2 firmware works just fine (asterisk 1.2.6). I have had exactly
zero problems with it, nothing even weird about it. Pretty trouble-free
IMO.
I believe the phone that doesn't work quite right with the 8.2 SIP image
is the 7970. I have probably 20 7940s/7960s, all running the 8.2 SIP

To get the SIP firmware for these phones, you need to buy a Cisco
SmartNet support contract (about $75 USD in the USA, though I've heard
rumors a Europe-only contract exists for about $10 USD.) You can
purchase one through most Cisco resellers. That will give you access to
Cisco's download site. Co
Chan_sccp does not support blind transfer. I would suggest using
chan_sip and the SIP images with these phones; it is much more stable,
has more features and is being actively developed. Chan_sip supports
blind transfer and 3-way calling, plus it handles multiple calls on hold
a bit more gracefully
The 7936 is SCCP only. It kind of works
with chan_sccp, but it’s not something I would use in a production
environment (it’s very buggy and will stop accepting input from the keys
frequently, requiring a hard reboot.) I would say there is no good way to
reliably use the 7936 in Asterisk, an
I am having some
troubles with DTMF detection on zap channels when the remote caller is calling
from a noisy cell phone. It is actually detecting multiple DTMF tones (usually
2 or 3) when only one is sent (i.e. I press ‘3’ and Asterisk is
detecting that as ‘333’.) I don’t know the exact sit

I use a PE2850 with CentOS 4.2 on it (as parent says, it is essentially
RHEL 4 without the support contract.) Extremely stable; no problems with

Yeah, the reported Dell issues seem to be with the x600 series (2650,
1650, etc.) No issues at all on my PE2850s (other than having to talk
Dell into selling me a power cable so the FXS ports would work.)

This is turning into a sysadmin theory flamewar, but I think the main
point is that Fedora probably isn't the best thing to run on production
machines for QA reasons. This is because Fedora is more or less the QA
testbed for RHEL. CentOS is, for all intents and purposes (except a

Use group permissions. Add the apache user to the asterisk group and

The default CentOS kernel has worked fine for me.
Just an FYI; CentOS uses the RedHat EL kernel source to build... It's
pretty heavily patched so if you want to use the latest stable, download
the SRPMs from RedHat/CentOS and patch in the kernel.org patches.
But yeah, stick with the CentOS kernel
