synopsis

Create and/or implement a telephone communication system for companies to communicate with the front desk or vice versa, for notifications, emergency and-or quick automation.

This idea was mentioned before: not only can we be informed there is a pizza delivery boy at the desk, but also other companies can benefit from a telephone/intercom system.

The cheapest setup would be SIP/RTP (VoIP); make use of the current network infrastructure. I happen to have a system with FreeSWITCH running, but it's currently in experimental mode.

Be aware that FS has a very steep learning curve, but once you get the point, you'll never want to go back (hint: regular expressions ftw)

implementation

First, I'm trying to revive my current FS box for usage on the CCC camp, make sure the set up has the following:

• At least three extensions: editor, fieldreporter hd audio and studio
• one or more sip trunks to EventPhone
• visual ring/in-use indicator
• calling queue, optionally w/ IVR and direct forward (field reporter)

todo

• register extensions at eventphone (done)
  • reserved numbers 2871 (BVR1), 2872 (BVR2) (spelled: Binary Voice Radio)
• (backup and) install a fresh freeswitch/FusionPBX
• create extensions
• backup again, for

notes

Noticeable telephone numbers:

• 4865: SvenR
• 2779: PsychiC (2PSY)
• 4214: xopr

• 6510: Ranzbak/deFEEST
• 6581: JinX/deFEEST
• 94214: xopr cell

future

Set up a FS/FusionPBX virtual machine for ACKspacers to play with.
