Calls In/Out of PSTN Working

Calls inbound from and outbound to the ANSI PSTN over an SS7 inter-machine trunk were made using the Sangoma-ss7box-Woomerang-Asterisk combination. This is a significant milestone in a project that has been discussed and planned since mid-year 2003.

What' s next? There is a big todo list on the ss7box wiki. In the comming week we will work on automating installation of the Sangoma-Woomerang-ss7box-ss7boost-Asterisk toolset. We will also begin ITU-izing the ss7boost ISUP state machine component in Pakistan and Paraguay. There will be a discussion about per number ISUP option configuration - where and how it should be done to minimize impact to current design, be maintainable, and not force the user into a confusing sequence of config file edits.

The ss7box website has been down since 2005-11-25 because of a massive failure of the shared host server. The web host support group advised today at 12PM to open a trouble ticket on web sites that were still missing. A trouble ticket is open on ss7box.com and hopefully it will be available again soon.
