TDMoE is your friend. As far as i remember there is no way to have two separate asterisk on one psychical TE410P/TE210P, you need two hosts (two PCs) one of them needs to have a TE410p, another one could use TDMoE or another E100P card or something. But this setup will work in 100%. Better is to check if someone has successfully connected to your-carrier type switch, so if your carrier has a SS7 switch from vendor X in version of Y and you want to pass a services like A,B,C, you should ask if someone had trouble using A,B,C on X in version Y. If it's just simple voice calls with ISUP version 1, then it will work. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
