I have been using the Jabber and Jingle additions in the SVN Trunk version of Asterisk and have come up with a couple of cool ideas.
Basically, you can call your Asterisk server from GoogleTalk, and it can send you the status of a few of your other servers.
All you have to do is set up an account in jingle.conf, i.e.:
[voipproducts]
username=voipproducts@gmail.com
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
context=checkStatus
connection=asterisk
Where voipproducts@gmail.com is my googleTalk address (the one I will be calling from).
Then set up a few simple accounts in iax.conf, i.e.:
[fv2fv1]
type=friend
host=freevoip.gedameurope.com
secret=mysecret
qualify=yes
where freevoip.gedameurope.com is the host I want to monitor.
Then add a bit of extensions.conf:
[checkStatus]
exten => s,1,NoOp(Incoming Call from VoIPProducts@gmail.com)
exten => s,2,JABBERSend(asterisk,voipproducts@gmail.com,freevoip.gedameurope.com status is ${IAXPEER(fv2fv1:status)})
Then reload.
Assuming you have set up Asterisk to appear as a google talk contact, all you then have to do is call Asterisk (in my case using my VoIPProducts@gmail.com address), it will send the call to checkStatus and then reply with the IAX2 ping time in a message!
Cool yeah?
