Objectives
General Purpose
Install the Asterisk platform and terminals softphone.
Specific Objectives
• Know the requirements for the installation of Asterisk. • Install Asterisk on
Windows and Linux. • Install Idefisk softphone, X-lite and SJphone. • Install th
e package of voices in Spanish - Colombia. • Install the necessary dependencies
in Linux. • Download a stable version of Asterisk by FTP. • Compiling Asterisk o
n Linux.
2
Materials List
•
Personal computer (PC) with some minimum requirements: Intel MMX 500MHz and 256M
B of RAM, and with some of these pre-installed operating systems: Windows ® XP,
Linux Ubuntu. CD-ROM directories, or failing that, an Internet connection for FT
P download.
•
Limitations
To form a complex telephone system would require computer preferably dual core,
a storage capacity of high RAM, PCI cards modules for E1/T1, ISDN, etc., And hav
e installed the LINUX operating system in its most basic: no graphical environme
nt (GNOME or KDE), to devote only the switching of telephone calls and digital p
rocessing of voice that, because these require many resources of the microproces
sor. As the intent of these guidelines is to implement a testing center, allowin
g the use of low-power computers, and use graphical environment for convenience.
On the machine to install Asterisk you should have the root passwords on Linux
or Windows administrator.

Theoretical Framework
Broadly speaking, we can say that VoIP (Voice over IP) is a system that transmit
s voice circuits where only by circulating data, ie, allows voice and data using
the same channel. Communication is done using the IP protocol, such as Internet
. [2] [4] Thus, in the 90s by Mark Spencer of Digium ®, arises Asterisk, which i
s an open source implementation of a telephone system that connects in a single
element to a set of open source tools for specific applications, and a server fo
r call processing. Asterisk can be used as a PBX or a PBX isolation linked to ex
isting ones. [1] Like any specialized hardware made PBX, Asterisk is able to han
dle a certain number of calls between analog phones and / or IP phones and conne
ct to the ISDN. [3] Asterisk was designed to work on machines running on Linux i
386, however, now has migrated to other platforms like BSD, MacOSX, Solaris and
Microsoft Windows. [5] In this illustrated guide to installing Asterisk on both
Windows and Linux, with more detailed illustration of the latter. The district w
ill work with Ubuntu Linux but I explained here might work with other distributi
ons, making only minor modifications.
WARNING: The amendments necessary for the proper installation process on other L
inux distributions other than Ubuntu, are not covered in this guide.
Asterisk can work only with Voice over IP without requiring any additional modul
e to create a telephone, relying only on a computer network and terminals softph
one. Internet is available in a lot of information about the installation of Ast
erisk, this guide provides this information in an organized manner and with such
a structure, allowing those who do not know much about it, get a meaningful lea
rning. These guides contain visual aids such as images and videos, for a better
understanding of the procedures.

Procedure
As you know, Asterisk is a software platform that can run on multiple operating
systems (what?). This guide will show the process of installing Asterisk on Linu
x and Windows. This will show videos and pictures of the process. This section i
s also a description of the difficulties and common errors that occur, the reaso
n for them and their solution.
1. Windows XP Installation
a) Installing Asterisk
To install Asterisk on Windows XP, follow these steps:
• • •
Setup0.6.exe or install the file, download it in its most recent version http://
www.asteriskwin32.com After downloading the file Setup0.6.exe run it. Then follo
w the steps that appear.
b) Implementation of Asterisk
To begin running PBX/AsteriskWIN32 GUI. Asterisk: Home / All Programas/AsteriskW

Video 1: Installing Asterisk on Windows XP SP2
To open the Asterisk CLI console, goes to the tab "Status" in the window of Aste
riskWin32 PBX, then choose "CLI console>."
2. Installing on Ubuntu 7.04
Once you have Ubuntu installed on your computer, perform an update of the OS wit
h the following command, while in the root directory: # aptupdate # apt-get upda
te
a) Installation of libraries and packages
Asterisk needs a series of libraries and packages pre-installed Linux to functio
n properly. In the case of ubuntu you need to have installed the following packa
ges: To install run the command: # apt-get install ncurses-dev bison libssl-dev
libnewt-dev initrd # aptncurseslibssllibnewtinitrdibssl dpkgintltooltools procps
cvs debhelper dpkg-dev gettext po-intltoolpobuilddebian html2text debconf build
-essential autoconf automake libtool flex libncurses5libssllibncurses5-dev libss
l-dev
b) Obtaining Asterisk packages
Some libraries and modules have been developed to integrate Asterisk with differ
ent hardware and software equipment. Developers are constantly fixing bugs in As
terisk, and release often stable and test versions. The official modules are:
9
Table 1. Official modules
04/01/1911 Asterisk Zaptel Module libpri 1.4.5.1 1.4.2 1.4.1 Addons
Asterisk Platform Description To manage FXO and FXS cards for digital cards for
handling additional tasks such as mysql, mp3, among others.
The CD Asterisk packages are in / software / Asterisk, but if you wish, you can
download the latest stable version of the official website: http://www.asterisk.
org/downloads. You can also choose to download via FTP from the command line:
# Cd usr / src http://ftp.digium.com/pub/zaptel/releases/zaptel 1.4.5.1.tar.gz p
ub / zaptel / releases / zaptel # wget-c http://ftp.digium.com/ http://ftp.digiu
m.com/pub/libpri/releases/libpri pub/zaptel/releases/zaptel-1.4.5.1.tar.gz 1.4.1
.tar.gz pub / libpri / releases / # wget-c libpri http://ftp.digium.com/pub/libp
ri/releases/libpri-1.4.1.tar.gz http://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk/releases/aste
riskm/pub/asterisk/releases/asterisk # wget-c http://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk
/releases/asterisk1.4.11.tar.gz http://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk/releases/ 1.4
.11.tar.gz asterisk-addons # wget-c http://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk/releases/
asterisk-addons1.4.2.tar.gz
NOTE: In this way the packages were installed in the folder / usr / src but if y
ou wish, you can install on any other directory.
Once you have the files in the folder / usr / src Komkeror decompressed using th
e program, or through the command: # tar # tar # tar # tar-xvzf-xvzf-xvzf zaptel
-1.4.5.1-xvzf. tar.gz zaptel-1.4.5.1.tar.gz-1.4.1.tar.gz libpri libpri-1.4.1.tar
.gz asterisk-1.4.11.tar.gz asterisk-asterisk-1.4.11.tar.gz addons-1.4.2.tar.gz a
sterisk-addons-1.4.2.tar.gz
c) Compiling Asterisk
For proper installation packages must be compiled in this order: Zaptel, libpri,
Asterisk, Asterisk-addons. If a situation arises where you do not install Zapte
l, and
10
later want to install a PCI card you must compile Asterisk Zaptel and again. Fro
m the console run the following command: # cd / usr / src # cd zaptel-1.4.5.1 za
ptel #. / Configure #. / Configure # make # make install # cd .. libpri bpri # c
d libpri-1.4.1 # make # make # make install # cd .. # cd asterisk-asterisk 04/01
/1911 #. / configure #. / configure # make install # make install # make samples
# cd ..
# cd asterisk-addons asterisk-addons-1.4.2 #. / configure # make # make install
# make samples # samples cd .. After installing the zaptel module must appear in
the terminal, something like the following:
11
Figure 4. Zaptel Installation.
After running the command. / Configure to check the libraries that are needed bo
th for the module to asterisk-1.4.1911-1.4.2 asterisk-addons, you should see the
following in the terminal:
Figure 5. Module asterisk-1.4.11. / Configure
12
For your reference, compile and install module-1.4.2 asterisk-addons, you should
see something like that shown in Figures 6 and 7, respectively. For other modul
es the terminal returns something similar.
Figure 6. Make asterisk-addons
Figure 7. Make install asterisk-addons

3. Installation of voices in Spanish - Colombia
The package of voices can be downloaded from the page www.asteriskcolombia.org,
belonging to the company GECKO NETWORKS, GPL licensed. The file is located on th
e CD-ROM-esque asterisk-sounds-ac.zip. Copy the file to the folder of sounds, wh
ich in Linux is located at: / var / lib / asterisk / sounds. In Windows this fol
der is located at this location: C: \ cygroot \ asterisk \ var \ lib \ sounds th
en unzip the file. To do this in Linux run the following: cd / var / lib / aster
isk / sound-esque asterisk-sounds-ac.zip unzip-v-esque asterisk-sounds-ac.zip CO
4. Run and stop Asterisk
Once you have installed Asterisk commands are used to run asterisk from the cons
ole. To start Asterisk can be used: # asterisk-Asterisk vvvgc can stop with the
following command: CLI> stop now
In the Asterisk console (CLI) can use the following commands: stop now: Asterisk
stops. restart now: reset Asterisk. reload now: load again the Asterisk configu
ration files. Parameters available for Asterisk: asterisk-c: console mode starts
asterisk-r: remote console asterisk-n: Disables the color of the console
14
asterisk-q: Quiet mode, suppresses prompts asterisk-v: verbose: Displays informa
tion, the more v is detailed. There is a maximum of 5. asterisk-g: download the
kernel if segmentviolation
5. Installing softphone
Another type of clients that can be handled by the platform are the softphones (
software that simulates a phone) that are installed on computers. Below is how t
he process of installing three of the most used softphones: XLite, SJphone and I
defisk.
a) X-Lite Windows XP is installed X-Lite_Win32_1011s_41150.exe, or download the
latest version at: http://www.counterpath.com/ then read the options that appear
and leave the ones by default ( unless you want to change them and have the kno
wledge to do so), then click Next to complete the installation. Linux (debian) f
ile is downloaded X-Lite_Install.tar.gz in the folder / usr / src, or the latest
version in http://www.counterpath.com/, then from the command runs:
xvz / usr / src / X # tar-xvzf / usr / src / X-Lite_Install.tar.gz / usr / src /
xten # cd / usr / src / # xtensoftphone xten-xlite
, Is decompressed, you enter your x, you run the x-lite
b) Windows XP SJphone
15
Is installed SJphone-1.65.2637.exe or download the latest version of http://www.
sjlabs.com/, then continue with the installation process is fairly intuitive. Li
nux (debian) file is downloaded SJphoneLnx-299a.tar.gz or the latest version in
http://www.sjlabs.com/,run the following command:
xvz / usr / src / SJphoneLnx 299th SJphoneLnx # tar-xvzf / usr/src/SJphoneLnx-29
9 ª. oneLnx SJphoneLnx tar.gz # cd / usr / src / SJphoneLnx-299th # SJPhone
, Uncompress
, Is running SJPhone
c) Zoiper This is the name given to the latest version of Idefisk softphone that
integrates the protocol IAX and SIP protocol (this is the only softphone, the t
hree installed in this guide, which manages the IAX protocol). Windows XP is ins
talled Zoiper Free 2.7 Installer.exe or download the latest version: http://www.
zoiper.com/. Follow the steps and let the configuration and location of files th
at Zoiper has by default. Linux (debian) file is downloaded zoiper20-linux-alsa-
oss-beta2.tar.gz or http://www.zoiper.com/ latest version, then run the followin
g:
xvz zoiper20-linux-alsa-oss # tar-xvzf / usr / src / zoiper20-linux-alsa-oss-bet
a2.tar.gz / usr / src / c / Zoiper # cd / usr / src / Zoiper # Zoiper; running Z
oiper

Recommendations for the use of the Guidelines
The guide should be read in its entirety by the student before arriving at the l
aboratory. In this way, students will have the opportunity to review the concept
s developed in the guide, and may be documented on the aspects that make you hav
e any doubts. In addition, before starting development to guide the student teac
her shall submit to the answers to initial questions, as a preliminary report. F
ailure to do so, be at the discretion of the teacher to allow the student to per
form the practice. In the item "The Problem" should ask what you consider as a p
ossible solution to the problem before proceeding further, it must be submitted
in writing to the instructor during the development of the guide. The "Final Iss
ues" applies to you develop, based on the knowledge acquired during the visit. Y
ou must submit this in written form at the end of the lab, along with your respo
nse to "The Problem", and laboratory findings. The order for reading the guide i
s as follows: Title, Objectives, Materials List, Constraints, Theoretical Framew
ork, Block diagram, initial questions, Statement of the Problem, Procedure, Prob
lems, Problems Finals Supplementary Bibliography, References and Annexes.
IMPORTANT: Not necessarily all guides contain all these sections. The contents o
f each particular guide will depend on what is sought to achieve with it.
NOTE: The user manual can find more detailed information on each of the sections
in addition to information on Asterisk in general.
