NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Traverse City, MI, United States, 03/10/2008 - Asterisk Connector was designed to solve billing software issues for VoIP service providers by providing a bridge between Asterisk and any RADIUS-based billing system, enabling them to utilize Asterisk to offer enhanced features to their customers.

Many service providers are offering VoIP services using Asterisk software but have invested in billing systems based on RADIUS. Since Asterisk is not based on RADIUS, service providers need a way to make Asterisk ‘talk to’ their billing systems. The Asterisk Connector makes this possible.

Asterisk is an open-source PBX application that can be adapted for use as a service provider switch. Asterisk Connector, designed by ISPhone, is a plug-in that allows Asterisk to operate with software that uses the RADIUS protocol. This product was designed to solve billing software issues for VoIP service providers, enabling them to utilize Asterisk to offer enhanced features to their customers.

Asterisk Connector is installed on an Asterisk server and provides a bridge between Asterisk and any RADIUS-based billing system.

For service providers who use ISPhone’s VoIP-PRO authentication, authorization and accounting (AAA) software, no extra code is required. Asterisk Connector can be configured for those who use other RADIUS-based servers.
