The 7942 is just something I was given for free. It was gonna be thrown out, but I was gifted it to play around with.

I was actually able to get Kamailio up and running on a VM and got a successful ring between two other VMs. A GUI isn't terribly important, just a little convenience to have. How does Asterisk compare to Kamailio? I've read that while Asterisk is more user friendly, Kamailio is more stable and can support more lines. However, I have also read you can run and load balance Asterisk on Kamailio

Advice for setting up a SIP server (alien.top)
 

Hi! I just came in possession of a Cisco 7942 IP phone and I am eager to set it up. I did some research and discovered how to flash it with SIP firmware as opposed to the SCCP firmware. As for the actual SIP server, I discovered Kamailio and decided on this one as it is in the main package list for OpenBSD which is the platform I mainly want to develop this on. I also discovered Siremis as a GUI for Kamailio, but it seems development has been lacking. Does anyone have any tips or tricks or advice on setting up a SIP server? Anything weird I need to look out for? Any challenges you guys specifically faced when setting up a SIP server? Thank you for any tips and advice!
