SPAN 3: CCS/ AMI Build-out: 399-533 feet (DSX-1)

Channel map:

Channel 01: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 01)

Channel 04: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 04)

6 channels configured.

ZT_SPANCONFIG failed on span 1: No such device or address (6)

Tried the above configuration similar with Trixbox 1.1 and 1.2 but ending up breaking the web interface when ever I modify misdn/zaptel stuff.

What hardware?
Motherboard / CPU

Why FC?
Centos is what you should use

sotx · September 19, 2006, 4:22pm

Celeron D 2.8GHz/ASUS P5PE-VM motherboard/512MB ram/Seagate 80gb IDE.

FC5 DVD iso is what I had on hand at that time

I’ve recently setup an asterisk server (well upgrade from 1.0.9 to 1.2.14); as part of this I migrated from bristuff to mISDN plus install a TDM400 card. This wasn’t always pretty but I did manage to get it working.

If you are using mISDN kernel modules then you should be using the chan_misdn channel driver for asterisk. This channel driver has it’s own configuration file normally misdn.conf.

The zaptel configuration that you show is for zaphfc a.k.a bristuff. I don’t think that this would work unless the zaphfc kernel module is load. Furthermore I foresee problems if zaphfc and misdn kernel modules are loaded (I haven’t tried this so I guessing - but it does seem reasonable that there would be problems with two drivers trying to control the same hardware).

The kernel module for mISDN is configured via misdn-init.conf in the etc directory (look at the README.misdn-init in the mISDN src directory). The kernel message below tells me that the card is not configured!

Instead of me sitting here sprouting my wisedoms (or lack of) I would suggest that you take a look at the asteriskguru tutorial for chan_misdn
