<h1>The Asterisk(R) Open Source PBX</h1>
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-text"> By Mark Spencer <markster@digium.com> and the Asterisk.org developer community.
|
||||
Copyright (C) 2001-2021 Sangoma Technologies Corporation and other copyright holders.
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
<h2>SECURITY</h2>
|
||||
<p>It is imperative that you read and fully understand the contents of
|
||||
the security information document before you attempt to configure and run
|
||||
an Asterisk server.</p>
|
||||
<p>See <a href="https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Important+Security+Considerations">Important Security Considerations</a> for more information.</p>
|
||||
<h2>WHAT IS ASTERISK ?</h2>
|
||||
<p>Asterisk is an Open Source PBX and telephony toolkit. It is, in a
|
||||
sense, middleware between Internet and telephony channels on the bottom,
|
||||
and Internet and telephony applications at the top. However, Asterisk supports
|
||||
more telephony interfaces than just Internet telephony. Asterisk also has a
|
||||
vast amount of support for traditional PSTN telephony, as well.</p>
|
||||
<p>For more information on the project itself, please visit the Asterisk
|
||||
<a href="https://www.asterisk.org">home page</a> and the official <a href="https://wiki.asterisk.org/">wiki</a>. In addition you'll find lots
|
||||
of information compiled by the Asterisk community at <a href="http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk">voip-info.org</a>.</p>
|
||||
<p>There is a book on Asterisk published by O'Reilly under the Creative Commons
|
||||
License. It is available in book stores as well as in a downloadable version on
|
||||
the <a href="http://www.asteriskdocs.org">asteriskdocs.org</a> web site.</p>
|
||||
<h2>SUPPORTED OPERATING SYSTEMS</h2>
|
||||
<h3>Linux</h3>
|
||||
<p>The Asterisk Open Source PBX is developed and tested primarily on the
|
||||
GNU/Linux operating system, and is supported on every major GNU/Linux
|
||||
distribution.</p>
|
||||
<h3>Others</h3>
|
||||
<p>Asterisk has also been 'ported' and reportedly runs properly on other
|
||||
operating systems as well, including Sun Solaris, Apple's Mac OS X, Cygwin,
|
||||
and the BSD variants.</p>
|
||||
<h2>GETTING STARTED</h2>
|
||||
<p>First, be sure you've got supported hardware (but note that you don't need
|
||||
ANY special hardware, not even a sound card) to install and run Asterisk.</p>
|
||||
<p>Supported telephony hardware includes:
|
||||
* All Analog and Digital Interface cards from <a href="https://www.sangoma.com/">Sangoma</a>
|
||||
* QuickNet Internet PhoneJack and LineJack (http://www.quicknet.net)
|
||||
* any full duplex sound card supported by ALSA, OSS, or PortAudio
|
||||
* any ISDN card supported by mISDN on Linux
|
||||
* The Xorcom Astribank channel bank
|
||||
* VoiceTronix OpenLine products</p>
|
||||
<h3>UPGRADING FROM AN EARLIER VERSION</h3>
|
||||
<p>If you are updating from a previous version of Asterisk, make sure you
|
||||
read the <a href="UPGRADE.txt">UPGRADE.txt</a> file in the source directory. There are some files
|
||||
and configuration options that you will have to change, even though we
|
||||
made every effort possible to maintain backwards compatibility.</p>
|
||||
<p>In order to discover new features to use, please check the configuration
|
||||
examples in the <a href="configs">configs</a> directory of the source code distribution. For a
|
||||
list of new features in this version of Asterisk, see the <a href="CHANGES">CHANGES</a> file.</p>
|
||||
<h3>NEW INSTALLATIONS</h3>
|
||||
<p>Ensure that your system contains a compatible compiler and development
|
||||
libraries. Asterisk requires either the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) version
|
||||
4.1 or higher, or a compiler that supports the C99 specification and some of
|
||||
the gcc language extensions. In addition, your system needs to have the C
|
||||
library headers available, and the headers and libraries for ncurses.</p>
|
||||
<p>There are many modules that have additional dependencies. To see what
|
||||
libraries are being looked for, see <code>./configure --help</code>, or run
|
||||
<code>make menuselect</code> to view the dependencies for specific modules.</p>
|
||||
<p>On many distributions, these dependencies are installed by packages with names
|
||||
like 'glibc-devel', 'ncurses-devel', 'openssl-devel' and 'zlib-devel'
|
||||
or similar.</p>
|
||||
<p>So, let's proceed:
|
||||
1. Read this file.</p>
|
||||
<p>There are more documents than this one in the <a href="doc">doc</a> directory. You may also
|
||||
want to check the configuration files that contain examples and reference
|
||||
guides in the <a href="configs">configs</a> directory.</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Run <code>./configure</code></li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>Execute the configure script to guess values for system-dependent
|
||||
variables used during compilation.</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Run <code>make menuselect</code> <em>[optional]</em></li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>This is needed if you want to select the modules that will be compiled and to
|
||||
check dependencies for various optional modules.</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Run <code>make</code></li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>Assuming the build completes successfully:</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Run <code>make install</code></li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>If this is your first time working with Asterisk, you may wish to install
|
||||
the sample PBX, with demonstration extensions, etc. If so, run:</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Run <code>make samples</code></li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>Doing so will overwrite any existing configuration files you have installed.</p>
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>Finally, you can launch Asterisk in the foreground mode (not a daemon) with:</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<pre><code> # asterisk -vvvc
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>You'll see a bunch of verbose messages fly by your screen as Asterisk
|
||||
initializes (that's the "very very verbose" mode). When it's ready, if
|
||||
you specified the "c" then you'll get a command line console, that looks
|
||||
like this:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> *CLI>
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>You can type "core show help" at any time to get help with the system. For help
|
||||
with a specific command, type "core show help <command>". To start the PBX using
|
||||
your sound card, you can type "console dial" to dial the PBX. Then you can use
|
||||
"console answer", "console hangup", and "console dial" to simulate the actions
|
||||
of a telephone. Remember that if you don't have a full duplex sound card
|
||||
(and Asterisk will tell you somewhere in its verbose messages if you do/don't)
|
||||
then it won't work right (not yet).</p>
|
||||
<p>"man asterisk" at the Unix/Linux command prompt will give you detailed
|
||||
information on how to start and stop Asterisk, as well as all the command
|
||||
line options for starting Asterisk.</p>
|
||||
<p>Feel free to look over the configuration files in <code>/etc/asterisk</code>, where you
|
||||
will find a lot of information about what you can do with Asterisk.</p>
|
||||
<h3>ABOUT CONFIGURATION FILES</h3>
|
||||
<p>All Asterisk configuration files share a common format. Comments are
|
||||
delimited by ';' (since '#' of course, being a DTMF digit, may occur in
|
||||
many places). A configuration file is divided into sections whose names
|
||||
appear in []'s. Each section typically contains two types of statements,
|
||||
those of the form 'variable = value', and those of the form 'object =>
|
||||
parameters'. Internally the use of '=' and '=>' is exactly the same, so
|
||||
they're used only to help make the configuration file easier to
|
||||
understand, and do not affect how it is actually parsed.</p>
|
||||
<p>Entries of the form 'variable=value' set the value of some parameter in
|
||||
asterisk. For example, in <a href="configs/samples/chan_dahdi.conf.sample">chan_dahdi.conf</a>, one might specify:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> switchtype=national
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>In order to indicate to Asterisk that the switch they are connecting to is
|
||||
of the type "national". In general, the parameter will apply to
|
||||
instantiations which occur below its specification. For example, if the
|
||||
configuration file read:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> switchtype = national
|
||||
channel => 1-4
|
||||
channel => 10-12
|
||||
switchtype = dms100
|
||||
channel => 25-47
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>The "national" switchtype would be applied to channels one through
|
||||
four and channels 10 through 12, whereas the "dms100" switchtype would
|
||||
apply to channels 25 through 47.</p>
|
||||
<p>The "object => parameters" instantiates an object with the given
|
||||
parameters. For example, the line "channel => 25-47" creates objects for
|
||||
the channels 25 through 47 of the card, obtaining the settings
|
||||
from the variables specified above.</p>
|
||||
<h3>SPECIAL NOTE ON TIME</h3>
|
||||
<p>Those using SIP phones should be aware that Asterisk is sensitive to
|
||||
large jumps in time. Manually changing the system time using date(1)
|
||||
(or other similar commands) may cause SIP registrations and other
|
||||
internal processes to fail. If your system cannot keep accurate time
|
||||
by itself use <a href="http://www.ntp.org/">NTP</a> to keep the system clock
|
||||
synchronized to "real time". NTP is designed to keep the system clock
|
||||
synchronized by speeding up or slowing down the system clock until it
|
||||
is synchronized to "real time" rather than by jumping the time and
|
||||
causing discontinuities. Most Linux distributions include precompiled
|
||||
versions of NTP. Beware of some time synchronization methods that get
|
||||
the correct real time periodically and then manually set the system
|
||||
clock.</p>
|
||||
<p>Apparent time changes due to daylight savings time are just that,
|
||||
apparent. The use of daylight savings time in a Linux system is
|
||||
purely a user interface issue and does not affect the operation of the
|
||||
Linux kernel or Asterisk. The system clock on Linux kernels operates
|
||||
on UTC. UTC does not use daylight savings time.</p>
|
||||
<p>Also note that this issue is separate from the clocking of TDM
|
||||
channels, and is known to at least affect SIP registrations.</p>
|
||||
<h3>FILE DESCRIPTORS</h3>
|
||||
<p>Depending on the size of your system and your configuration,
|
||||
Asterisk can consume a large number of file descriptors. In UNIX,
|
||||
file descriptors are used for more than just files on disk. File
|
||||
descriptors are also used for handling network communication
|
||||
(e.g. SIP, IAX2, or H.323 calls) and hardware access (e.g. analog and
|
||||
digital trunk hardware). Asterisk accesses many on-disk files for
|
||||
everything from configuration information to voicemail storage.</p>
|
||||
<p>Most systems limit the number of file descriptors that Asterisk can
|
||||
have open at one time. This can limit the number of simultaneous
|
||||
calls that your system can handle. For example, if the limit is set
|
||||
at 1024 (a common default value) Asterisk can handle approximately 150
|
||||
SIP calls simultaneously. To change the number of file descriptors
|
||||
follow the instructions for your system below:</p>
|
||||
<h4>PAM-BASED LINUX SYSTEM</h4>
|
||||
<p>If your system uses PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) edit
|
||||
<code>/etc/security/limits.conf</code>. Add these lines to the bottom of the file:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code class="language-text">root soft nofile 4096
|
||||
root hard nofile 8196
|
||||
asterisk soft nofile 4096
|
||||
asterisk hard nofile 8196
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>(adjust the numbers to taste). You may need to reboot the system for
|
||||
these changes to take effect.</p>
|
||||
<h4>GENERIC UNIX SYSTEM</h4>
|
||||
<p>If there are no instructions specifically adapted to your system
|
||||
above you can try adding the command <code>ulimit -n 8192</code> to the script
|
||||
that starts Asterisk.</p>
|
||||
<h2>MORE INFORMATION</h2>
|
||||
<p>See the <a href="doc">doc</a> directory for more documentation on various features.
|
||||
Again, please read all the configuration samples that include documentation
|
||||
on the configuration options.</p>
