Hi Guys,
I’m new in VoIP, I heard from a friend that asterisk is good in VoIP service especially on SIP. I’m planning to replace our old PBX system (legacy of Panasonic) to VoIP so that even out of the country we can still communicate cheaper than regular phone. But I have a few questions though before I change our OLD PBX to VoIP.
<![if !supportLists]>1. <![endif]>Does asterisk generate CDR? If yes how do I see it or generate it? Because I have to monitor people who’s calling overseas.
<![if !supportLists]>2. <![endif]>How do I secure it? Co’z I have to open it via Public IP. Can I know the port asterisk used assuming I’ll use SIP.
<![if !supportLists]>3. <![endif]>If it run on linux, it run will on BSD but I read from google that it has specific version for BSD. Can I know what version are for FreeBSD?
This questions might annoyed experts. Please bear with me...

Thank you.

ok I have a answer for you
yes it does cdr. you can use a gui interface to look at them
yes it runs on bsd and if its for your company then you would want a gui for
ease of use.
you have basicly 2 major choices right now freepbx or thirdlane.
freepbx be it is a ok project requires sql and is a resource hog in the long
run.
thirdlane does not require a sql but you can implement a sql for cdr storage
and recall via other gui interfaces.

Lots of good info there. But be warned SIP and NAT are a huge headache
together.

That's not quite true. Linux and BSD are different OS's and
applications like Asterisk which are written specifically for Linux
need some porting to work properly under BSD. However, it is pretty
easy to install on FreeBSD:
# portinstall asterisk
if you don't have portinstall, then Google that and install it. Very
useful tool.
