asterisk users - Mar 2004 - IAX and Snom200

Greetings
What would it take to have a snom200 support IAX,
what are the processes or having hardware to
support a new codec? Can this be tested and done
by a uesr or must this be done by the manufacturer?

Thanks in advance

We thought about this option. I guess the IAX2 is not the problem. We
believe the real problem will be the user interface.

 

snom would have no problem providing the platform (hardware plus operating
system and stuff like audio), but we simply don't want to open another
development branch (already got enough trouble with SIP.-).

 

I personally think its ok to optimize the SIP interoperability. All that you
can do in IAX can also be done in SIP (or am I making a big mistake here?).

I agree that NAT traversal is a huge issue in the SOHO/Small office
environment. If the Verbiage (sp?) IAX capable phone is a good product
then it will become my preference over the Snom 200. I have several
Snom 200s and I like them very much. However, the simplicity of IAX2
installation is too good to pass up.
