Berikut adalah 7 langkah menyiapkan Ubuntu Server 7.04 anda untuk menjadi server VoIP berbasis Asterisk 1.4.x beserta kawan2nya 🙂

Step 1. Get latest updates and upgrade your server
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Step 2. Get the latest linux headers, this is necessary to compile zaptel
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

Step 3. Get compiler and needed libraries
sudo apt-get install gcc g++ cpp
sudo apt-get install make automake autoconf m4 binutils libtool bison flex
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev libnewt-dev libncurses5-dev
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev

Step 4. Always install libpri first
tar -zxf libpri-1.4.1.tar.gz
cd libpri-1.4.1/
make
sudo make install

Step 5. Followed by compiling zaptel
tar -zxf zaptel-1.4.6.tar.gz
cd zaptel-1.4.6/
./configure
make menuconfig

note on make menuconfig:
select all options on ‘Utilities’
press x to save selections

make
sudo make install
sudo make config
sudo vi /etc/default/zaptel

note on editing /etc/default/zaptel:
if you dont have zaptel-based card you must remove the # from this line:
#MODULES=”$MODULES ztdummy”

Step 6. Done with libpri and zaptel, next the asterisk it self
tar -zxf asterisk-1.4.14.tar.gz
cd asterisk-1.4.14/
./configure
make menuconfig

note on make menuconfig:
remove chan_mgcp, chan_phone, chan_oss, chan_skinny from ‘Channel Drivers’
remove codec_adpcm, codec_a_mu, codec_g726, codec_lpc10 from ‘Codec Translators’
press x to save selections

make
sudo make install
sudo make samples

Step 7. The last step would be compiling asterisk-addons
tar -zxf asterisk-addons-1.4.4.tar.gz
cd asterisk-addons-1.4.4/
./configure
make menuconfig

note on make menuconfig:
remove chan_ooh323 from ‘Asterisk Addon Modules’
make sure the rest is selected

sudo make install
sudo make samples

Lain waktu disambung dengan tulisan singkat selanjutnya, yaitu melakukan konfigurasi pada asterisk.

cheers,
