OpenR2 library

OpenR2

OpenR2 is a library that implements the MFC/R2 telephony signaling protocol over E1 lines. Along with the library, branches for Asterisk are provided with MFC/R2 support in chan_zap.

The library is still under development but it has proven to be stable in production.
To get the library you have 2 options, HTTP or SVN:
libopenr2-0.1.1.tar.gz
svn checkout svn://libopenr2.org/openr2/trunk
The .tar.gz is the latest SVN snapshot. Each time a commit is made a new snapshot is made available. Therefore I recommend using SVN to keep your library up-to-date. You just need to "svn update" and "make install" once in a while.

Asterisk 1.6 (trunk)
svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/moy/mfcr2
You can find more information about the development of this branch here: http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=12509

I decided to remove the .tar.gz packages and the patches for 1.2 and 1.4 in favor of SVN branches because it's quite easier keep updated the code this way. The branches are based on the latest versions of Asterisk 1.4 and 1.2 and each time a new Asterisk 1.2 and 1.4 versions come out I will merge the changes into this branches.

Asterisk 1.4
svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/moy/mfcr2-1.4

Asterisk 1.2
svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/moy/mfcr2-1.2

If you still need the patches, you can easily use "svn diff" to get them.

For help configuring zapata.conf open "configs/zapata.conf.sample" and search "mfcr2".

The most tested version is Asterisk 1.6 trunk, however both 1.4 and 1.2 should work fine as well. You can report any bugs to my e-mail (find it at the bottom of this post).

Supported MFC/R2 variants:
Argentina - ar
Brazil - br
China - cn
Czech - cz
Ecuador - ec
México - mx
ITU - itu
Phillippines - ph
Venezuela - ve
Other countries probably work with the ITU variant, if your country is not specified here try with the ITU variant and let me know your results. If you want your country variant supported drop me a line.
