Sangoma Transcoding Server Operation
Before using the FreeSWITCH or Asterisk codec module, it is necessary to start the Sangoma transcoding SOAP server. Both, FreeSWITCH and Asterisk codec modules work as SOAP clients for this server, therefore if the server is not started, FreeSWITCH and/or Asterisk won't be able to use the Sangoma transcoding card. This also means you can have multiple FreeSWITCH or Asterisk boxes using the same transcoding card where each box requests transcoding sessions to the box with the card actually installed. In order to start the transcoding server you must use the sngtc_server_ctrl script:
--> sngtc_server_ctrl start
