Due to the unfortunate nature of Wikis, the section on voip-info.org that deals with dual asterisk servers is full of pretty bad and outdataed examples. What I'm trying to do is distribute small asterisk boxes to remote offices that have SIP clients connected inside the network, and ship any outbound calls to a central asterisk server via IAX that is in turn connected to the PSTN and some VOIP LD providers. I also want 4 digit dialing between sites, where the 1st digit is always the site id to route the call to So at the master site (site 1) we can call Siet 2 (remote site) by dialing 2XXX. Site two can call extensions at the master by dialing 1XXX etc. The relatively new switch dialplan command seems like it will assist in accomplishing this, but does anyone have a simple IAX config and dialplan that will help me understand how this all works? Regards, NIk Martin

I have been using switch now for over 3 years. switch is easy, you just include it in the appropriate context and it will contact the remote machines for dialplan completion. -- Steven Critchfield <critch@basesys.com>

Just bind all of the servers together into a federation, and advertise the local extensions on the * server. -- Vice President of N2Net, a New Age Consulting Service, Inc.
