Telephony is indispensable in conducting business to be competitive
So Companies spend lot of money to buy their own telephony switch (PABX)
Interesting and new perspectives introduced by VoIP emergence:
Possibility for the deployment enterprise telephony infrastructure using software (software PABX)
![Page 3: Asterisk - Glen Bastes](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052505/555a30eed8b42a900d8b4fdb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Presentation of a PABX• Definition : it is a private telephony switch.• Common Functionalities Direct dialing-in Standard Transfer call Connection to PSTN Automatic recall etc
• Cost between $1300 et $148000

What is a IPBX?• Software which can be installed on a PC or a
server and acting as an auto-switch.Example of software based PABX
• Cisco Call Manager• SipX• OpenSER• Asterisk• And many more.

When: 1999Who : Mark SpencerWhy : “I needed a phone
system and with as small a startup budget as I had for Linux Support Services, I wasn't about to buy one, so building one seemed a logical way to go.”
This guy, right here!

Officially, Asterisk is an Open Source hybrid TDM and packet voice PBX and IVR platform with ACD functionality. Unofficially, Asterisk is quite possibly the most powerful, flexible, and extensible piece of integrated telecommunications software available.
Its name comes from the asterisk symbol, *, which represents a wildcard, matching any filename.
Similarly, Asterisk the PBX is designed to interface any piece of telephony hardware or software with any telephony application, seamlessly and consistently.

• Released and developed under GPL, but Digium retains rights to code-base
• All developers submit disclaimers to their code before patches are accepted, allowing for Digium to license specific branches for Commercial projects
• This dual-licensing allows companies to purchase license rights to snapshots of the Asterisk codebase to be used in commercial, non-GPL products

What is VoIP?• Voice Over IP
– Sending Voice over Internet Protocol• How VoIP works
– Continuously sample analog audio (20 ms)– Convert audio into to a digital signaling
format or codec– Send digitized stream across the Network as
IP packets– Decode the stream to analog for playback
![Page 31: Asterisk - Glen Bastes](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052505/555a30eed8b42a900d8b4fdb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
VoIP = Voice Over Internet ProtocolPSTN = Public Switched Telephone Network (AKA
Ma Bell, or The Great Satan)Codec = A Digital Signaling FormatSIP = Session Initiation ProtocolIAX2 = Inter Asterisk Exchange Protocol

• Proxy = Connects Endpoints Together• Registrar = Authenticates Users• Media Gateway = Translates between the PTSN and
Packet Networks• Application Server = Think Webserver• ATA = Analog Telephony Adapter
![Page 33: Asterisk - Glen Bastes](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052505/555a30eed8b42a900d8b4fdb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• The Great Myth– “If I switch to VoIP I’ll get Free Long Distance”– Don’t Believe the Hype
• The Reality– Trade off of Quality and Reliability for Features– Portability / Flexibility– Cost Effectiveness– More Choice and Control– Every Dollar spent on VoIP goes further

• Convergence is happening all around you• There are implementation, management and
maintenance opportunities for consulting companies.
• In 3 years, traditional PBX and Telephone systems will be a thing of the past
• Easy Target - Customers are being saturated w/ VoIP Advertising from the likes of Vonage
• If you don’t provide the service to them, then someone else will
