Asterisk - Sample Configuration files for a J1 implementation

Configuring your Sangoma A10x card for J1 is qute simple but it does require making some manul changes:

1. First use the "wancfg_zaptel" script to quickly create a base wanpipeX.conf, zaptel.conf, and zapata.conf files. For now select the T1 line media and take the default line configuration options (B8ZS and ESF). Select the type of clocking to use; NORMAL, and the card will take the clocking from the line (select this for a telco connection) and MASTER if the card needs to act like the telco and generate the clocking for the line. Next select either PRI_NET (telco/master side of a PRI connection) or PRI_CPE (slave side of a PRI connection). Lastly direct the call to the Asterisk context of your choice.
2. Once the configuration script has created all the files, the wanpipeX.conf files need to be modified so the driver correctly encodes the line. Open the file "/etc/wanpipe/wanpipeX.conf", where X is the port number. Add the line "FE_SUBMEDIA=J1" as per the following sample wanpipeX.conf file:
