How to configure Asterisk with AMP (Asterisk management portal)
AMP is a separate web based configuration tool for Asterisk. It is no longer being actively developed as a seperate project. Instead, it has been integrated into Freepbx. More information can be found on the VoIP Wiki.
Here is a quick intro as it relates to LinuxMCE. Note the AMP integration is not fully complete. In time this process will become more seamless.
Step 1: Add your phones
The phones in your home will be stored in 2 places: Once in LinuxMCE's database as LinuxMCE devices. This is where the orbiters retrieve the list of phones in the house to display on the screens, and also the phones you can position on the floorplan. Secondly, AMP also maintains its own list of phone extensions that it uses to configure Asterisk. Normally LinuxMCE's list and AMP's list will stay in sync automatically. You can verify this by checking Wizard, Devices, Phones to see LinuxMCE's list.
It should look like this
include/images/amp/amp-00.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="include/images/amp/t-amp-00.jpg
Go to include/images/amp/amp-01.jpg" target="_blank">Wizard, Devices, Phone Setup</a>, you will see <a href="include/images/amp/amp-02.jpg" target="_blank click 'Setup', then include/images/amp/amp-03.jpg" target="_blank and you'll be be able to include/images/amp/amp-04.jpg" target="_blank an extension (usefull if your phone is not plug-and-play), but take a look at extension list in the right. The 'Extension' in AMP's list should equal the 'PhoneNumber' in LinuxMCE's list, and in LinuxMCE's list if you click the 'ADV' button, you will see LinuxMCE's IP address, which should correspond to AMP's.</br> include/images/amp/amp-05.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="include/images/amp/t-amp-05.jpg"></a><a href="include/images/amp/amp-05a.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="include/images/amp/t-amp-05a.jpg
LinuxMCE has its own plug & play back end. If you have IP based phones, just plug them in. If we have that model in our plug & play database it should appear automatically in AMP's phone extension table and also in LinuxMCE's Device list. Otherwise you must add the phones manually to both lists. For each phone specify the IP address of the phone and a give each phone a unique phone extension (the 'Phone Number' on LinuxMCE's list).
Check that device is listed as child of 'Asterisk' device.
Goto AMP's config site include/images/amp/amp-05.jpg" target="_blank section...
- if your phone is plug&play it should be listed on the right, select it and just check if all data are ok.
- otherwise include/images/amp/amp-04.jpg" target="_blank (specify phone type(SIP/IAX2), Extention, Password and later IP address.
Don't forget to regenerate screens on orbiters and quick reload for dcerouter.
If you added more than one phone, try to call between them
It's a good idea to setup a default phone in include/images/amp/amp-15.jpg" target="_blank section
Step 2: Add your phone lines and VOIP providers
Next step it to setup external lines...Please follow your VOIP provider's instructions.
