Some of you may recall that we started down this road with FreePBX 2.11 and Asterisk 11. The objective was to build the CLI components that would be needed to create an open source Drag-and-Drop UI for Asterisk using the GPL components of FreePBX for the code generation component. There were a few "other issues" along the way, but we're back at it again now.
We'll be retesting the original scripts with Asterisk 13 just to be sure everything still works. And we'll be adding some new ones shortly. All of this will be built on the Incredible PBX 13 ISO platform if you want to join the party.
The first new scripts we'll be tackling are Interconnecting Asterisk servers with SIP trunks. The idea here is to plug in the IP addresses of two of your servers and then to interconnect them. With one click on each server, the trunks and outbound routes get generated by the scripts. Once both sides are in place, you can start making free calls between all of the extensions on both servers.
Obviously, you don't need a drag-and-drop UI in order to take advantage of these CLI tools. And these interconnection scripts should be especially handy for those of you that set up remote servers from a central location. No web access is required to the remote site, just SSH into the site, upload the scripts, and go.
We'll post something in a few days to let anyone with a couple sandboxes or VMs play around. Working fine in our lab.
