If this is your first Asterisk Install, you should install the sample configuration files, to
do this run:
# make samples
Software Configurations:
After compiling and installing DAHDI and Asterisk, load the Dahdi driver by running:
# /etc/init.d/dahdi start
# dahdi_genconf –vvv
If there is any error, please trace the cause. Until all errors are clear up, you should
execute
"
dahdi_genconf
"
again, and then go to the next step.
By running
"dahdi_genconf"
, it will generate /etc/dahdi/system.conf and
etc/asterisk/dahdi-channels.conf automatically. Checking whether the generated files
information agrees with your hardware setup, if not, you should modify to your
specific requirements.
Do not forget to confirm dahdi-channels.conf is included in chan_dahdi.conf to
configure dahdi channels with asterisk, if not, run command:
# echo "#include dahdi-channels.conf" >> /etc/asterisk/chan_dahdi.conf
Execute the following command:
# dahdi_cfg –vvvvvv
This command is used for reading and loading parameters in the configuration file
system.conf and writing to the hardware.
Start the Asterisk by executing
# asterisk –gvvvvvvvvvc

command to check the pri span status
