It provides all of the +features you would expect from a PBX and more. Asterisk does voice +over IP in three protocols, and can interoperate with almost all +standards-based telephony equipment using relatively inexpensive +hardware. + +Asterisk provides Voicemail services with Directory, Call Conferencing, +Interactive Voice Response, Call Queuing. It has support for +three-way calling, caller ID services, ADSI, SIP and H.323 (as both +client and gateway). + +NOTE: This version does not work with the zaptel drivers. It +requires the newer DAHDI drivers which are still being ported. +So, there is no hardware support available at this moment. + +Asterisk 1.8 is a long term support version (i.e. it will be +supported for four years with an additional year of security only +fixes).
