Deciding on Server and Operating system?
Selecting your server
Sangoma cards are compatible with most commercially available servers and motherboards on the market.
Our cards are available in both PCI and PCI express versions and are backwards compatible (i.e. 16x, 8x, 4x, 2x)
Also available are different size brackets for 1U and 2U server form factors.
* If you require the use of analog cards, please verify that your server has available molex power connection from internal power supply
(required only when using FXS modules and/or remora expansion boards)

Selecting your Linux Operating system
Sangoma cards are compatible against most official Linux distributions and kernels (i.e. CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu) 32 and 64bit.
Sangoma recommends the use of CentOS as we use this distributions in our development and QA environments.
* Virtual environments are not supported. Even if you are not usual virtual environments, verify your distribution is not based on
virtualization (i.e xen)
Below are instructions for CentOS distribution. If you would like use a different Linux Distro, please visit the appropriate resources online.
1. Download latest CentOS distribution:
32-bit: http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/
64-bit: http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/
2. After downloading the CentOS ISO, simply burn the image on CD/DVD using your choice of burning utility
3. Boot your server with the CD/DVD containing your CentOS ISO. Verify your BIOS settings allow for Boot from CD/DVD ROM drive
4. Follow the on-screen prompts to Install your new operating system. You may wish to visit some online step-by-step tutorials (google:))
5. Once completed, remove the CD/DVD from your server and reboot your server and log in to your freshly installed operating system
-> Proceed to below steps to continue with installation procees

Preparing your Operating system for software packages
After installing your Linux operating system, you must prepare your server with the following software requirements before continuing.
To Install required system dependencies simply copy and paste the below string directly into your Linux command line. The string will
automatically download and install missing dependencies on your server.
*You must have internet connection for this step.
For CentOS (RedHat distros)
yum -y install kernel-devel-$(uname -r) libtool* make gcc patch perl bison gcc-c++ ncurses-devel flex libtermcap-devel
autoconf* automake* autoconf libxml2-devel cmake
For Ubuntu/Debian
apt-get -y install gcc g++ automake autoconf libtool make libncurses5-dev flex bison patch libtool autoconf linux-headers-
$(uname -r) libxml2-devel cmake

Downloading Software Packages

Software Source Download Source (tgz)
Asterisk current-release
Dahdi dahdi-linux-complete-current
Libpri
(for PRI/BRI only)
1.4-current
Software found at http://www.asterisk.org/downloads
Now that your Linux operating system is prepared, begin to download your required software packages
1. Download all your software in /usr/src/ directory.
Change directory to /usr/src:
cd /usr/src
2. Copy&paste each of the lines below (one by one) in your command line (in /usr/src) to automatically download each software package
(.tgz files)

wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/asterisk-11-current.tar.gz
wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/libpri/libpri-1.4-current.tar.gz
* Do not download libpri (the third line) if you only require Analog card support
You have now finished downloading Asterisk, DAHDI and LibPRI software for your server

Installing Software Packages
The following instructions will guide you to uncompress the downloaded '.tgz' Asterisk/DAHDI/LibPRI files and install using make command
1. DAHDI Installation
Untar DAHDi software packagepreviously downloaded in /usr/src/ and install
tar xvzf dahdi-linux-complete<version>
cd dahdi-linux-complete <version>
make
make install
make config
* If there are any error messages while trying to the above commands, you are missing system dependencies listed in previous steps

2. LibPRI Installation (required for PRI/BRI only)
Untar libPRI sources previously downloaded in /usr/src/ and install
tar xvfz libpri-<version>
cd libpri-<version>
make
make install
3. Asterisk Installation
Note: if you are upgrading Asterisk make sure that old asterisk modules are removed from /usr/lib/asterisk/modules

cd /usr/lib/asterisk
mv modules modules.old
Untar asterisk sources previously downloaded in /usr/src/ and install
tar xvfz asterisk-<version>.tgz
cd asterisk-<version>
./configure
make
make install
make samples (will create new config files)
Now you are ready to install the Sangoma Wanpipe driver which controls & configures the Sangoma card

Sangoma Driver Installation
The following instructions will guide you through the Installation of the Sangoma Wanpipe driver on your server that contains all
required software pacakges already installed(i.e. Asterisk, DAHDI, Libpri).

1. Download the latest official release of the Sangoma Wanpipe Driver
Copy & Paste the line below into your Linux command line in /usr/src/ directory.
It will automatically download the driver
wget ftp://ftp.sangoma.com/linux/current_wanpipe/wanpipe-current.tgz
---
2. Uncompress the download wanpipe download (.tgz file) in /usr/src
tar xvfz wanpipe-current.tgz
cd wanpipe-<version>/
---
3. To Install Wanpipe, run ./Setup install from the newly created wanpipe-<version> directory

./Setup install
** For A116 Customers: please use ./Setup install --dahdi-chunk=40 (For more info click here)
You will notice the Wanpipe driver installation splash screen next.
Press 'y' to continue
You will be presented with a dependency check with pass/fail results. If there are any failures, you must exist and install missing
dependency manually.
Press [enter] to continue
