How does it work?
On the LinuxMCE Admin page: Wizard/Devices/Core check the box for "Asterisk". This will install both the Asterisk pbx software, and also the LinuxMCE Asterisk DCE Device, which is just a thin wrapper that passes messages/events between LinuxMCE and Asterisk making the two appear seamlessly integrated.
When you check that box, it also adds a few more pages to the LinuxMCE Admin web site where you can configure your phone system, choose voicemail options and so on. Each of those pages has their own context-sensitive help. You will not need to touch Asterisk's configuration files--they are maintained automatically by the LinuxMCE Asterisk DCE Device.
The IP-based telephones that LinuxMCE supports are all plug-and-play, such as the Snom 200. Just plug the phone into any jack and all the Orbiters will display a message to let you know that your new phone has been detected.
To configure your phone you may use AMP (Asterisk Management Portal) which is included in LinuxMCE-admin site
I already know Asterisk
We use Ubuntu's package of asterisk with few addons and custom packaged AMP. If you already have your own Asterisk installation running, you should be able to run the LinuxMCE Asterisk DCE Device against it.
