Asterisk recepie for Ubuntu

This guide will show how to install a small asterisk PBX in the cloud on a VPS that you and your friends can use to call each other for free using SIP applications on Android, Iphone and Ipad. I have tested this configuration with Sipdroid(Android) and Acrobits Softphone(Iphone,Ipad).

$ sudo apt-get install puppet

file asterisk.pp, please change node name styx to your hostname, please change secrets

###########

class asterisk

{

package { "asterisk": ensure => installed }

exec { "sip.conf" : command => "/bin/echo '

[general]

port = 5060

bindaddr = 0.0.0.0

context = default

[1000]

type=friend

secret=1000

#qualify=yes ;latency must be under 2000ms.

nat=yes

host=dynamic ; the devices can be registered with different IPs each time

canreinvite=no ; Asterisk by default redirects

context=internal ; the context of the extensions.conf file

[1001]

type=friend

secret=1001

#qualify=yes ;latency must be under 2000ms.

nat=yes

host=dynamic ; the devices can be registered with different IPs each time

canreinvite=no ; Asterisk by default redirects

context=internal ; the context of the extensions.conf file

[1002]

type=friend

secret=1002

#qualify=yes ;latency must be under 2000ms.

nat=yes

host=dynamic ; the devices can be registered with different IPs each time

canreinvite=no ; Asterisk by default redirects

' > /etc/asterisk/sip.conf"

}

exec { "extensions.conf" :

command => "/bin/echo '

[others]

[internal]

exten => 1000,1,Dial(SIP/1000)

exten => 1001,1,Dial(SIP/1001)

exten => 1002,1,Dial(SIP/1002)

' > /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf"

}

}

node styx

{

include asterisk

}

$ sudo puppet -d asterisk.pp

After this you may need to restart asterisk

$ sudo service asterisk restart
