I have just recently began to play with pbx in a flash as I am looking at it as an option to replace our existing Nortel BCM450 as part of a migration onto a new infrastructure built up alongside our old infrastructure. I'm no telephony person by any means (I do know the data side of things), but am willing and trying to learn as I go.
I have the latest version of pbx in a flash green set up, a trial sip trunk set up with incoming/outgoing routes, our polycom h323 codec set up as a sip endpoint, as well as a few X-Lite 4 softphones for testing (looking at grandstream models if I can get all the functionality I need figured out from PIAF).
I am currently having a very difficult time getting paging to a sound card to work. At this point I have sound playing while echoing text through flite, however no matter which how to I follow for setting up a paging extension to console/dsp or console/alsa and adding to a paging group in the paging and intercom module there is no sound played out the soundcard when calling that extension, though I do get a beep.
This project has potential to save my company a bunch of $ a month as we currently pay AT&T over $2500 a month for 17 pstn lines into our Nortel system, which I was told was all that was available 3 years ago when it went in. I would love to be able to utilize paf to show administration that replacing the Nortel unit with piaf + sip phones would pay for itself in 3 months and free up at least $2000 a month for our infrastructure project (which we desperately need).
Is there a set of instructions to follow that will work with the latest version of PIAF - Green?
This is my first tango with implementing anthing telephony / any pbx system - it's all very exciting and a niche that's new/exciting to me though.
Thank you for any assistance you are willing to/can provide
