packer-sbc-rtp

A packer template to build an AMI for a jambonz SBC RTP server. The base linux distro is Debian 11 (bullseye).

Installing

To build an amd64 image:

$  packer build -color=false template.json

To build an arm64 image:

$  packer build -color=false \
--var="ami_base_image_arch=arm64" \
--var="instance_type=t4g.xlarge" \
template.json
