ResVoip EC2 Build 3!

February 19, 2009

I’m really excited! There seems to be a lot of momentum and interest around Asterisk on EC2 in the last few days!

To make things clear, there’s no competition on our part in this space - our only interest is in giving back to the community. We are happy to work with anyone who might already have an EC2 image to reduce redundancy in effort.

That all being said, we are releasing our 3rd build of Asterisk on EC2 today. What’s installed?

  • Asterisk 1.4.23.1
  • g729 eval code - check your local laws
  • FreePBX 2.5.1.1
  • Webmin 1.450

You can launch this image by looking for ami-2ec62147.

There is no cost to this machine, and therefor no warranty implied or liability accepted. Please do send over any and all feedback.

While this isn’t quite ‘Trixbox on Ec2′, with your feedback and support, it could soon come close.

Enjoy

Setup Notes:

Webmin:
running on port 10000
default login is ‘admin’ / ‘resvoip’
make sure to open tcp port 10000 if you wish to use

To set the web administrator password, use the command ‘passwd-web’. The username is wwwadmin.

1. edit the /etc/asterisk/sip_general_custom.conf file and fill in your own values for the externip and localnet variables.

2. define your firewall rules to allow:
1. udp 10000-20000, 4569, 5036, 5060
2. tcp 5060
3. tcp 22, 80
3. configure your carriers and endpoints

4. define your dialplan

    How about a cost analysis (regarding packets in and out of the cloud) on hosting asterisk services on EC2?

    It does not. I use conferencing services via a IAX trunk to a box which has working conferencing.

    I’m writing to say thanks! I’m the project manager of the opentaps Open Source ERP + CRM project, and we just used your AMI to test the integration between opentaps and Asterisk. Everything worked, and we wrote this tutorial with some information about your AMI too: http://www.opentaps.org/docs/index.php/Opentaps_Asterisk_Integration
