Configuring Wanpipe
http://wiki.sangoma.com/wanpipe-linux-yate-configuration (uses wpchan) (but I guess the comment on MTU/MRU for bearer channels still applies? MTU/MRU=2400 → 10ms for 30 channels)
http://www.sangoma.com/assets/docs/misc/2008_09_18_Conferencing_with_Sangoma_Wanpipe.pdf
All Yate docs for ysgichan / ss7 indicate that wpcard should be used; the Sangoma doc therefor would suggest: Config Wanpipe
(Issues I had: 1. wancfg sets Rx Level to 360 = 36dB?!) 2. MTU/MRU depends on the number of channels ) Also make sure to set the UDP Debugging port to 0.
Use dmesg
to see the errors logged by the driver.
Operations
Once the ports are up, wanpipemon -g
is very useful.
