Question 1: If I am going to be selling hardware phones to the enduser do there accounts have to be SIP or can they still be IAX (I find IAX is better for firewalls)? Question 2: Is there a way to limit connections? For example, extension 7895483 can only have 1 call in progress at a time (either incoming OR outgoing). And if so, is there a way to change this limit on a per extension basis? (I want to be able to sell more connections at a small rate) Thanks in advanced, Ben

If you have many phones you may want to install a SIP Proxy (e.g. SER) to get your Asterisk box overloaded. I have not found an IAX Proxy server.> Question 2: > Is there a way to limit connections?
