====== Redfone foneBRIDGE2 ======

!!Note:!! This page is outdated!

For !!AstLinux 1.0.4+!! there is a custom build option to provide __experimental__ support for the [[http://red-fone.com/fonebridge2.html|Redfone foneBRIDGE2]] PRI-to-Ethernet bridges in AstLinux.

The standard installation + configuration procedures are described at the Redfone [[http://red-fone.com/suport.html|support page]]((links to ''red-fone.com'' seem to be broken)).

Update (2017-10-26): I found a new download page for the tools on [[https://github.com/Redfone/fonebridge2|Github]]

Redfone suggests to setup an own dedicated LAN between the fonebridge and your AstLinux box, where the TDM-over-Ethernet traffic runs.

In AstLinux you don't need to install anything, you just need to to create a correct ''redfone.conf'' and put it into ''/mnt/kd/'' (as usual in AstLinux), and also setup ''/mnt/kd/dahdi/system.conf'' to reflect that. 
An example ''redfone.conf'' is provided in ''/stat/etc/redfone.conf.sample''. If you use 2 fonebridges create an ''/mnt/kd/redfone2.conf'' as well. You can edit all files in the WebGUI after creation.

The needed drivers are included by default in **[[userdoc:dahdi|DAHDI]]**. You just need to to set:
  DAHDIMODS="dahdi_dynamic dahdi_dynamic_ethmf"  
The Redfone tools ''fonulator'' and ''fb_flash_util'' are also included within AstLinux (custom build). 

Normally you would store the configuration permanent into the foneBRIDGE with the ''fonulator'' utility (''--write-config''). If you want to configure your foneBRIDGE(s) on every boot, you can set the 
  FONEBRIDGE_CONFIG=yes
option in your ''user.conf''.
