What can I do with Asterisk ?

  • Gated Community Mobile Access
    • Scenario: A Town House complex would like to open the entrance gate using the owners/tenants cellphones. Solution : Asterisk is set to look at the caller ID and only open the gate when it comes from a known user. The call does not cost the caller anything , because Asterisk does not answer the call. The additional advantages is that a caller log is available to see who opened the gate and at what time. It could further be used to track to see who is inside or not. The hardware to "trigger" the gate can be provided by Voipmagic. It also becomes easy to add a new member - let's say someone comes to visit. A new member can be added for a limited period. The end of the gate remote control is finally in sight!

  • Wireless Network Status Notification

    • Scenario: The Administrator of a Wireless network would like to notified when a wireless link goes "down". Solution : The Server is set up to "ping" each link at a set interval. When a link does not respond , Asterisk phones the Administrator on his mobile phone. When the Administrator answers , Asterisk announces that the specific link is down and provide the Administrator with he option to reset the equipment. Asterisk then resets ( power down and power up ) the equipment. IT Administrators can finally take the weekends off !

  • Security Lights via Voice Control

    • Scenario: You are driving home late at night and would like to have the security lights on when you arrive home. Solution : Asterisk answer your call and ask you what you would like to do. You enter a number and Asterisk switches on your security lights. All the nessacary hardware to make this possible can be supplied by Voipmagic. PIN codes can be added for security. You never have to arrive at a dark home again! ( Why not have the jacuzzi started while your at it ! ) You can also have Asterisk respond on you CallerID - this way it won't cost you anything. The phone will simply ring and then get hangup while the light sitches on.
