2.0 vs 1.0

Many months of development went into the new 2.0 release series after 1.0 had stabilized. Aside from the major change of moving from FreeBSD to Linux as the base operating system, many new features have been implemented to make Askozia®PBX even smarter and easier to use.

Targeting the average user and embedded hardware, we've automated everything possible and even reduced resource requirements in the firmware.

2.0

  • custom Linux distribution built with T2 SDE
  • architectures supported: x86, Blackfin, ...
  • based on Asterisk 1.6.1

  • ISDN & Analog ports & phones automatically detected and configured
