How to configure Micronet GW FXO SP5054A/S with asterisk.

How to configure Micronet GW FXO SP5054A/S with asterisk.

Configuring the gateway

I found that it was easier to configure the gateway by telnet/Serial port than by http. Both way con be use to accomplish this step.

If you are using the serial port (First Config) Configure the IP section on the gateway with values which may be convenient for you.

usr/config$ ifaddr –> for more information

usr/config$ ifaddr -ip 192.168.2.11 -mask 255.255.255.0 -gate 192.168.2.254 -mode 0 -http 80

Configure the gateway on proxy mode and configure the 4 lines as asterisk extensions.

usr/config$ sip –> for more information

usr/config$ sip -px 192.168.2.10 -line1 1001 -line2 1002 -line3 1003 -line4 1004 -pxport 5060 -pbsearch 0 -port 5060 -rtp 16384

lets suppose that 192.168.2.10 is the asterisk IP.
Set the username/password for asterisk extension

usr/config$ security –> for more information

usr/config$ security -line 1 -name 1001 -password 1001

usr/config$ security -line 2 -name 1002 -password 1002

usr/config$ security -line 3 -name 1003 -password 1003

usr/config$ security -line 4 -name 1004 -password 1004

Make the gateway forward calls on each port to specific extensions on asterisk. In case I needed to map one port with one user extension, but figure out that could be a queue, or ring group or voice menu.

usr/config$ line -help –> for more information

usr/config$ line -config 1 hunt 1 hotline 2001

usr/config$ line -config 2 hunt 2 hotline 2002

usr/config$ line -config 3 hunt 3 hotline 2003

usr/config$ line -config 4 hunt 4 hotline 2004

Set global variables on the gateway

usr/config$ sysconf –> for more information

usr/config$ sysconf -idtime 3 -keypad 1 -onhook 1 -ivr 0 -sipping 0 -billing 0 -silence 1 -connect 5

Set the voice codecs order and priorities:

usr/config$ voice –> for more information on

usr/config$ voice -send g711u 60 g711a 60 g723 60 g729 60 -echo 1 1 1 1 -nscng 1

• IMPORTANT **

On the following section there are NO configurations to be changed.
route – prefix – phone book

Look that I’ve nothing configured on those sections:

usr/config$ prefix -print

Prefix drop/insert information and configuration
Index Prefix Drop Insert
=======================================================

usr/config$ route -print

Routing table information and configuration
Index Prefix Dst. E.164 Min Max Hunt Drop
=======================================================================
IP Default FXO x
FXO Default IP x

usr/config$ pbook -print

Phone book information and configuration
Index Name E.164 IP Port Drop Insert
==================================================================

usr/config$

Then you need to commit changes to flash memory and then reboot

usr/config$ commit

This may take a few seconds, please wait….

Commit to flash memory ok!
usr/config$ reboot

….
