FreeSWITCH running on OpenWrt
Is there an interest in running FreeSWITCH on OpenWRT? I recently managed to compile and run a version for a MIPs based router, the Planex MZK-W04NU. This router has 32MB ram, 8MB flash, runs at 400MHz, draft N support (2.4GHZ), based on 2.6 kernels, a usb port and sells for about 60 bucks online. I used a 2GB USB flash drive for the FreeSWITCH directory and SWAP space. I was planning to setup a wiki page on compiling and configuring. regards, Carlos

Just curious - is there a use case for doing this, other than the hobbyist who does it because it's cool?

Please do. We like to see all the different places and ways that people use FreeSWITCH. -MC

I could see using it as a standalone product for (very) small businesses or as a home gateway+phone. Guess the biggest issue would be lack of reasonable local storage for voicemail. -- -Rupa
Until I figure out how much of a load it can handle for now it's just an experiment. :) I was motivated by two factors: - Kristin had ported FreeSWITCH to Astlinux, another uClib embedded environment. This sparked my interest in getting it to work on OpenWRT - Asterisk has been running on OpenWRT for a while so I wanted to see how difficult it would be to bring in FreeSWITCH.

Sounds like a fun project. I wouldn't worry too much about the lack of local storage space for voicemail. You can easily mount remote filesystems to increase storage capacity. I've done so using openwrt for my own projects using shfs, nfs, and next I want to try s3fs. --Stephen 2009/4/1 Carlos Talbot <carlos.talbot@gmail.com>

s3fs would be ideal if this is a turnkey solution. still need local storage (flash) for the sqlite databases, but that shouldn't be very hard. 2009/4/1 Stephen Crosby <stevecrozz@gmail.com>

There are some old binaries at: http://www.freeswitch.org/downloads/n800/ Is there a newer version? Any place with instruction to build? Val.
We haven't updated it recently... You should be able to use scratch box to accomplish it also. On that note please do not hijack threads... you clicked reply, changed the subject and body which causes it to thread your message with the original posters thread. So please in the future click new message and input freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org Thanks, Brian On Apr 1, 2009, at 4:00 PM, Valentin Doroga wrote:

Brian West brian@freeswitch.org -- Meet us a ClueCon! http://www.cluecon.com
we relocated the machine with the build env for that, I'll try to find the time to resurrect it and make a new one. On Wed, Apr 1, 2009 at 4:00 PM, Valentin Doroga < valentin.doroga@pronexus.com> wrote:
