<strong>Running</strong> <strong>Asterisk</strong> <strong>under</strong><strong>openWRT</strong>
core1.saintjoe.edu/wiki/Astricon
the <strong>openWRT</strong> projectStarted with the Linksys WRT54GEureka moment: "This thing runs Linux!"Broadcom reference designsMike Baker (mbm) was organizerFirst code released in late 2003" the device is turned into a mini linux PC"Codebase was begun from scratch
more <strong>openWRT</strong>Two major releases so farWhiterussianEvolved from original "stable" versionNo longer maintainedKamikazeFirst release summer 2007More-or-less complete rewrite
featuresRuns on an enormous range of hardwareIt's now native on some productsDozens--may hundreds--of commodity routersLots of embedded CPUs supportedLots of WLAN cards supported tooLots of programmers, lots of activityEasy to buildIFF you have up-to-date toolsSupport for many applicationsBig package repository
uilding kamikazeCross-compiledConfiguration similar to Linux kernelBuilds the build system, then builds the systemComponents are downloaded on the flyCurrent kernel is 2.6.25.Package extensionsUses opkg, an ipkg toolPackages are integral to designDefined by "meta-makefiles"Final build result is binfiles and packages
pick a platformList of supported platforms on <strong>openWRT</strong> siteConsiderationsRAM/FlashUSBWirelessCPU type, power management, ADSL, etc.I use Netgear WGT634U8M/32MUSB 2.0Atheros on mini-PCI
usb pitchIt makes things a lot simplerSeveral models have USB supportEspecially at >$40 pricepointsMass storageSystem libraries<strong>Asterisk</strong> modulesLogsStores static files, symlinked inI use flash, but HD is possible too
uilding <strong>Asterisk</strong>I only build trunk, against kamikaze trunkOverall process is simpleBuild and test <strong>openWRT</strong> firstSet up <strong>Asterisk</strong> package "Makefile"Put necessary <strong>Asterisk</strong> libs into builde.g. SSL, curses, Postgres, etc.Fetch and build <strong>Asterisk</strong>I have to do a bit of cheating
esult of build is an .ipk fileIt's a bundle of <strong>Asterisk</strong> filesI once called my routers "phonodes"Self-configuring on my networkIntegrated into old house control systemsCamera protectionTemperature monitor and alarmLots of other stuff possibleBluetooth networking w/OpenmokoHome automationHotspotHome OfficeOutdoor wireless
