Hi all Last month i got a project in Asterisk where I have to work with ss7 signal . As I never work on SS7 signalling I tried google and found quit a lot information. but non of them [I found] gave me total step by step solution. I like to share my experience and solution with everyone. Target Signalling : ss7 Number of E1 : 32 [ 4 E1 per server X 8] Type of Setup : Termination Software and Hardware I used OS : CentOS 5.3 [64bit] . Server : Hp Proliant . Card Model : Digium TE420 with Echo chan E1 Mux : Ad-net Asterisk version : 1.6.0.13 libss7 verssion :1.0.0 dahdi-linux-complete-2.2.0.2+2.2.0 dahdi-tools-2.2.0 Setup : E1 Mux : Zero configuration required . All you need to connect E1 [cat 5] cables from Digium card to your mux. Digium Card: TE420 has four E1/T1 ports. Change the jumper as you need to make that E1 or T1. All you need to put that card into your server's PCIe slot. Connect four E1 to your MUX using standard drop cables. OS: Install the OS Libss7: download from : h
