Asterisk Requirements with PfSense?
-
Im sure this is out there somewhere but I can not find it.
I want to run asterisk on my pfsense box.
1. Do I need additional hardware for this to work? Such as a digium card or something?
2. Can this integrate with google voice?
3. Can this integrate with ObiHai products?
4. Can I use a old anlog telephone or do I need special voip phones?Thank you kindly in advance for your answers.

The basic idea of this package is to be a sip/iax gateway/proxy/firewall to protect internal voip server.
You can reach all these configs, but you will need to compile a lot of drivers/modules on freebsd and copy it to pfsense.

Btw if the idea was to provide a pfsense package to be "sip/iax gateway/proxy/firewall to protect internal voip server" I understand that other VoIP software is better suited for the task (this however doesn't diminish the value of marcelloc's great work on this a several other packages).
Asterisk on pfsense should be used if one plans to implement a relative barebones (compared to specialty asterisk-distros like Elastix) VoIP-only (i.e. no cards) IP-PBX.

comment configurer le paquet asterisk dans pfsense?
et si on installe ce paquet, est ce qu'il faut un serveur asterisk réel?

Might it be beneficial to update the package description to make this distinction? Currently it reads as if you install the package and you have a full fledged IP-PBX and you don't need anything else.

If you know how to configure asterisk config files, then you don't need anything else.

Sure . . . that makes sense, however . . . .

. . . . would make me think that a clearer definition of it's reason for being implemented would assist some in making a better informed decision as to install it or not. (of course, not removing the possibility of using it for more.)
just my 2¢
