To find out the version of Asterisk, Dahdi/Zaptel and the kernel you are running:
1) To find out the kernel version perform the command:
        #> uname -r
           2.6.18-164.11.1.el5
2) To find out your asterisk version
        #> asterisk -V
        Asterisk 1.6.0.22
3) To find out your dahdi/zaptel version
       For Dahdi
       #> dahdi_cfg -vvv
           DAHDI Tools Version - 2.2.0
     DAHDI Version: 2.2.0
       For Zaptel
       #> ztcfg -vvv
           Zaptel Version: 1.4.12.9.svn.r4590-Xorcom-trunk-r7049

To download the RPM's just run "wget X" where X is the URL of the rpm.
To install run the commands below:
         #> rpm -i wanpipe-modules-2.6.18-128.1.1.el5-3.5.11-0.i686.rpm
         #> rpm -i wanpipe-util-3.5.11-0.i686.rpm

To verify that driver has been installed run the command:
        #> wanrouter hwprobe verbose
The output should show something similar to the one below (different output for different cards)
-----------------------------------------

To configure your card:

Create Wanpipe/DAHDI/SMG Configuraiton Files:
#> Setup-Sangoma (Configures PRI/BRI and Analog Cards)
    (Note -> this step was offered at the end of the ./Setup install,
     if you already configured the card, proceed to the next step)
      - Creates Dahdi configuration files
      - Creates wanpipe configuration files in /etc/wanpipe
   - Creates SMG and Woomera configuration files
     - Creates wanpipe configuration files in /etc/wanpipe---
Start Wanpipe Ports
#> wanrouter start
- Starts all wanpipe ports
- Check /var/log/messages for info or errors---
Configure DAHDI/ZAPTEL module
#> dahdi_cfg -vvv
- configures DAHDI kernel modules from /etc/dahdi/system.conf
or
#> ztcfg -vvv
- configures ZAPTEL kernel modules from /etc/zaptel.conf ---
Start Asterisk
#> asterisk

SOURCE INSTALLATION

Sometimes it is required to install the driver from source due to differences between the RPM dependencies and what is installed on the system. To install the driver from source, follow the instructions below:

Requirements
Please run the follow commands to install the required packages needed for compiling wanpipe drivers from source:

          yum -y install kernel-devel-$(uname -r);
          yum -y install libtool;
          yum -y install gcc;
          yum -y install patch;
          yum -y install perl;
          yum -y install bison;
          yum -y install gcc-c++;
          yum -y install ncurses;
          yum -y install ncurses-devel;
          yum -y install flex;
          yum -y install libtermcap-devel;
          yum -y install lksctp-tools-devel;

Dahdi/Zaptel Download and Compile

Dahdi Version
First find the version of Dahdi by running the command:
      #> dahdi_cfg -vvv
      DAHDI Tools Version - 2.2.0
      DAHDI Version: 2.2.0
      Echo Canceller(s):
      Configuration
     ======================

Now you will notice there will be two versions insure you note down the Dahdi version not the Dahdi-tools version. Then go to http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux/releases/ and search for your version of Dahdi there. The file name should be in the format "dahdi-linux-<version>.tar.gz". Once you find the version then run the command
        #> cd /usr/src/
and then run "wget <<URL of Dahdi-linux>>", so for this version it would be the following command.
        #> wget http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux/releases/dahdi-linux-2.2.0.tar.gz

Asterisk Download and Compile

The sources for Asterisk are only required if you are installing a BRI Card (A500/B700)

FOR TRIXBOX 2.6.2.3
1. First thing to do is find out your Asterisk version with the command:
       #> asterisk -V
2. Go to http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/ and search for your Asterisk version. If you have Asterisk 1.4.22 then the URL will be http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/asterisk-1.4.22.tar.gz
3. Once you have the URL run the commands:
          #> cd /usr/src/
                 and then
        #> wget X with X being the URL
    Once the download is complete run the command "
    #>tar xfz asterisk-<version>.tar.gz
              and then
          #> cd asterisk-<version>
4. Once you are in the Asterisk source run the command
        #> ./configure; make
    this will configure and build the source.

FOR TRIXBOX 2.8.0.3 and UP

1. First thing to do is find out your Asterisk version with the command:
#> asterisk -V
2. Go to "http://yum.trixbox.org/trixbox/2.8/RPMS/repodata/repoview/A.group.html" and find the "asterisk-16-devel-<ver>" package.
3. Once found, install download the RPM using the command:
#> wget <link to RPM>
4. Install the RPM with the command:
#> rpm -i asterisk16-devel-<ver>.rpm

Once the RPM is installed, the asterisk sources will be located in "/usr/include/asterisk".

Wanpipe Driver Download and Install

- Download the lastest Dahdi Driver from --> http://wiki.sangoma.com/wanpipe-linux-drivers#beta
- Untar wanpipe release in arbitrary directory (/usr/src/ is recommended).
            #> tar xvfz wanpipe-<version>.tgz
            #> cd wanpipe-<version>
- After untarring WANPIPE®, the wanpipe<version>/ directory will be created.
- Make sure asterisk and zaptel/dahdi are shutdown by using the commands:
      Zaptel method (Trixbox 2.6.2.3)
   #> amportal stop
   #> service zaptel stop
Dahdi method (Trixbox 2.8.0.3 and up)
   #> asterisk -rx "stop now"
   #> service dahdi stop

Run ./Setup install from the newly created wanpipe-<version> directory
    #>./Setup install
Proceed with installation Select "Y" for each option.f

Setup will ask you which compilation method you would like to choose to install the driver:
- For PRI/ANALOG support, choose Option 2
- For BRI support, choose Option 6
- For PRI/BRI/ANALOG support, choose Option 7

If PRI/ANALOG support was chosen:
               Setup will try to auto-detect dahdi sources in /usr/src directory
               [By default Setup will look in /usr/src]
IF BRI support was chosen:
               Setup will try to auto-detect asterisk sources in /usr/src directory
               [By default Setup will look in /usr/src]
---
Proceed with Defaults for the rest of the compilation.
--
Last step in installation will ask you to configure wanpipe cards for Dahdi/Zaptel/Sangoma Media Gateway (SMG)
If any errors are encountered during the compilation of the utilities, click here for assistance.

Confirm Successful Wanpipe/Dahdi Installation
Confirm successful Wanpipe/Dahdi installation run:
#> wanrouter hwprobe
This command will load the wanpipe and Dahdi modules and will print out list of all Sangoma hardware installed on the system.

Configure Sangoma Cards

Create Wanpipe/DAHDI/SMG Configuraiton Files:
#> Setup-Sangoma (Configures PRI/BRI and Analog Cards)
    (Note -> this step was offered at the end of the ./Setup install,
     if you already configured the card, proceed to the next step)
      - Creates Dahdi configuration files
      - Creates wanpipe configuration files in /etc/wanpipe
    - Creates SMG and Woomera configuration files
     - Creates wanpipe configuration files in /etc/wanpipe---
Start Wanpipe Ports
#> wanrouter start
- Starts all wanpipe ports
- Check /var/log/messages for info or errors---
Configure DAHDI/ZAPTEL module
#> dahdi_cfg -vvv
- configures DAHDI kernel modules from /etc/dahdi/system.conf
or
#> ztcfg -vvv
- configures ZAPTEL kernel modules from /etc/zaptel.conf ---
Start Asterisk
#> asterisk
If you have a BRI card you will need to add a "custom" trunk to dial out. If you go to http://wiki.sangoma.com/WoomeraFreepbx this is full details of how to do this with Freepbx which is essentially the same as Trixbox.

WANPIPE VOICETIME INSTALLATION

In order to install the voicetime tool, you would need to stop asterisk and zaptel/dahdi by performing:
        To Stop Asterisk
        #> amportal stop
              or if you have Asterisk 1.6 and up
        #> asterisk -rx "stop when convenient"
        To Stop Dahdi/Zaptel
        #> /etc/init.d/zaptel stop
             or if you have dahdi
        #> /etc/init.d/dahdi stop

Once dahdi/zaptel and asterisk have been stopped, you would need to do the following:

Requirements
Please run the follow commands to install the required packages needed for compiling wanpipe drivers from source:

You would need to compile the dahdi source in order to install the wanpipe driver:
1. Extract the dahdi-linux-<version>.tar.gz file, by running the command:
        #> tar xvfz dahdi-linux-<version>.tar.gz
2. Run:
         #> cd dahdi-linux-<version>
    and then once in the directory run
        #> ./configure; make
3. The compiling is done, if there is any errors please contact techdesk@sangoma.com

Zaptel Version
Since Zaptel is no longer used, this covers only Trixbox 2.6.2.3
First find the version of Dahdi by running the command:
      #>ztcfg -vvv
      Zaptel Version: 1.4.12.9.svn.r4590-Xorcom-trunk-r7049
      Echo Canceller: OSLEC
      Configuration
      ======================

Now you will notice that only a portion of the line is highlighted. The highlighted portion is in fact the version of zaptel currently running on the system.
In order to download the source files for Zaptel, you would need to download the source RPMS. Navigate to the /usr/src directory by entering the command:
      #> cd /usr/src
The download link for this version of zaptel is: http://yum.trixbox.org/centos/5/SRPMS/zaptel-1.4.12.9-1_trixbox.src.rpm

Once you have downloaded the RPM, you would need to run the following commands to gain access to the source tarball:
     #> cd /usr/src
     #> mkdir redhat; cd redhat; mkdir SOURCES; cd /usr/src
     #> rpm -q zaptel-1.4.12.9-1_trixbox.src.rpm
     #> mv /usr/src/zaptel-1.4.12.9.tar.gz /usr/src/zaptel-1.4.12.9.tar.gz

You would need to compile the zaptel source in order to install the wanpipe driver:
1. Extract the zaptel-<version>.tar.gz file, by running the command:
        #> tar xvfz zaptel-<version>.tar.gz
2. Run:
         #> cd zaptel-<version>
    and then once in the directory run
        #> ./configure; make
3. The compiling is done, if there is any errors please contact techdesk@sangoma.com
