Installing Asterisk On Synology Nas
The DiskStation by Synology is a famous NAS server solution for your home, allowing the installation of additional packages. We are proud to be able to provide.

They do NOT care what we prospective students go thru to compete w/ ea other for their lmtd spots, and they will lie to you to keep you waiting unitl theyve made their pick for.
Having successfully from upstairs, everything changed. My Raspberry Pi is being repurposed for a family member and I now have a Synology DiskStation. Thus I needed to find a way to run Asterisk on my Network Array Storage (NAS) device. Asterisk provides Voice Over IP (VoIP) and it needs an always on computer to work. Previously my Raspberry Pi performed that role, now my DiskStation must take its place.
I knew that Docker would be part of the eventual solution but I was surprised by how long it has taken to find workable images and settings. What follows are my notes for getting this working. Docker Image and Synology Settings Synology provide a Docker package through the Package Center.
Using this edition of Docker, I settled upon the following image by: The alpine-asterisk Docker image. Launch this image with the following settings: • Advanced Settings > Enable auto-restart • Advanced Settings > Network > Use the same network as Docker Host The setting Use the same network as Docker Host is important. This allows Asterisk to open ports and communicate without restriction.

By applying Use the same network as Docker Host there is no need to specify port mapping or exposing ranges. The container is free to open ports and chatter away.
This does go against the contained nature of Docker but for this situation it bypasses many problems. Alpine Linux and Asterisk Next set up Asterisk. Create a terminal session to the running Docker container. Do this by Secure Shell ( ssh) into the Synology and connect to the Asterisk container using: sudo docker exec -it asterisk-alpine sh The container is named asterisk-alpine in this example and sh is the command to execute. Issue these commands to add any desired extras to Asterisk: apk update apk search -v 'asterisk*' apk add asterisk-sounds-en I did not immediately need any extra files but any use of the talking clock or answer machines will. Repeat the to set up lines and connect to the GrandStream HT-503 box.
Once set up, the asterisk-alpine container consumed 24 MB of RAM and less than 1% CPU, and requires 33 MB of storage. Categories Tags, Post navigation.
Installing 3rd party software on your Synology DiskStation DS411j Jan 9, 2012 • Note: I recently purchased a & I’m putting up posts about things I figure out. This is part of that series. The Synology DiskStation comes with a pretty darn complete collection of services & software that you can access & use through the DSM, the DiskStation Manager GUI. As I’ve been mentioning, though, you can also SSH into the DiskStation CLI (Command Line Interface) & run commands there. The DiskStation comes with a large assortment of commands already present, but you can install others as well, which is what I’ll focus on here. You could download source code & compile it, of course, but I’m not going to cover that here (maybe in a later post). When I can, I like to take the easy route & install pre-compiled software packages.
