Installation

1. Download the appropriate WANPIPE Release based on the Sangoma Hardware. Refer to the Wanpipe Drivers section.
   
   
2. Untar the wanpipe release in the arbitrary directory (/usr/src/) and hwec-utils is you have a hardware echo canceller.
   

   tar xvfz wanpipe(version)
   

   After untarring WANPIPE, the wanpipe/ directory will be created.
   
   
3. Run ./Setup install
   
   Proceed with installation Select "Y" for each option.
   
   Under the compilation mode:  Select "TDM Only drivers" (Option #2).
   
   The etup will ask you for location of the zaptel sources?
   [By default Setup will look in /usr/src/zaptel]
   
   Setup will ask you if you would like to add support for the Sangoma HW HDLC DCHAN PRI to Zaptel.
   "Compile TDMV DCHAN Native HDLC Support (y/n)?"
   Select "Y" to Enable HW HDLC on DCHAN PRI in Zaptel.
   
   Note: This option will PATCH the ZAPTEL driver.
   Therefore zaptel must be recompiled after ./Setup is complete.
   
   Proceed to compile wanpipe drivers.
   
   
4. Proceed with the Defaults for the rest of the compilation.

Configuration

Run wanpipe configuration utility:

/usr/sbin/wancfg

Hardware Setup (AFT):

Select Hardware: Specify which AFT card installed from hardware probe.

    After probing the hardware, wancfg screen should show  you:
    (in this example, an A104 card)
    ----------------------------
    Card Type-------> A104    
    Physical Medium-> T1    
    ----------------------------

Sepecify Line Type:  T1 or E1
                                 Default is T1 

Default configuration is complete: Select <BACK>

Protocol Setup:

Select Protocol: TDM VOICE

Configuration is complete: Select <BACK>

Interface Setup:

Skip First two options and leave them default.

Select: SPAN Number: 1 - Unlimited
            The SPAN usually starts with 1
            This option binds HW Port to a particular SPAN.

Select: Override Asterisk Echo Enable  (AFT101/2/3/4/4d)
            Default: NO

  Setting this option to YES will DISABLE echo cancellation
  for this particular span.
  ie: ignore what is configured in zapata.conf,
       then set this option to YES.

  This is mainly used in switching applications where one SPAN needs echo
  cancellation and others do not.  

Select: DCHAN PRI Timeslot:     (AFT101/2/3/4/4d)

Hardware HDLC support for DCHAN PRI

Options: 
0     : Disable Hardware HDLC on PRI timeslot.
24   : T1 Line DCHAN is usually on timeslot 24
         Enable Hardware HDLC on PRI timeslot. Default 24
16   : E1 Line DHCAN is usually on timeslot 16
         Enable Hardware HDLC on PRI timeslot. Default

Note: TDMV_DCHAN values are ALWAYS  [0 | 24 | 16]
(Don't confuse this with the Asterisk configuration that uses values greater than 24/31 for the DCHAN specification).

Configuration is complete: Select <BACK> to Save and Exit
