      1eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow

      1

      AsteriskNow deployment is just like setting up any Linux distribution.

      2eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – The Server Console Interface

      2

      AsteriskNow is meant to be managed from the Web GUI, but we did a few things–including updating the server and getting to the Asterisk command line console–from the server itself.

      3eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Updating the Appliance

      3

      From the rPath Appliance Agent page, we could update our software appliance with a single click.

      4eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Analog Phones

      4

      The first step in the config wizard is setting up analog phones. (We didnt have any.)

      5eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Extension Settings

      5

      The wizard walked us through extension length and starting place.

      6eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Trunks, Trunks, Trunks

      6

      We could configure prepopulated Voice ITSPs, set up our own SIP or IAX trunk, or configure analog trunks from our Digium Wildcard 400p.

      7eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Mapping Call Rules to Trunks

      7

      AsteriskNow comes with default call rules that are not tied to any trunks. We could edit those or make our own.

      8eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – The Wizard of Voice Mail

      8

      Here, we set up the default voice mail extension and message settings.

      9eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – User Extensions

      9

      We could tie a user to an extension, specify the types of service a user can access and create default passwords.

      10eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Registration

      10

      For the first few beta iterations, Digium required users to register, but now users can bypass this step.

      11eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – Configuring Call Rules

      11

      We could set up call rules from the wizard, but to do some things–such as prepend numbers to a dialed number–we had to go into the interface.

      12eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: AsteriskNow – All About the Upsell

      12

      Administrators can get to a VOIP phone reseller directly from the Asterisk GUI.
