What I am looking to do is the follow:
provider -----------route/iptables-----------------------sip hardware from
provider
|
|
asterisk box.
What I would like to be able to do is have the provider sip hardware do the
register with the
provider. Next have the route box register with asterisk. When I get a
incoming I would like
the SIP and rtp traffic routed to asterisk box under register has. When I
make an out going call
have the asterisk box talk to route/iptables box and have use the provider.
This is what I would call a proxy box with pass the register/login. I want
to known if such a thing
exists. I can write the iptables rules to bring all the traffic into user
level so I can write program
to deal with,
The problem I am trying to solve is the the provider is using sip to talk to
the ATA they use but
will not give me the password. The box in the middle can do the routing to
all traffic to pass
thought use program. With the correct software the provider should be think
here is talking
to the ata. But what is really happening is the ATA is being used to
register and all traffic is
being sent to the Asterisk box.
This is wanted because using to ATA back to back creates a number of
problems with echo. Also
a delay for CID and problems with DTMF decoding. Keep everything digital is
the way to go.
Wanted to see such a thing exists before starting work on it. (the middle
box will be wrt54g that
has openwrt running on it. )

Hi Mike,> This is wanted because using to ATA back to back creates a number of > problems with echo.

But before getting started with Asterisk, I posted a similar idea to the group; it was met with a quite cool reception, on and off-list. See http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-October/068932.html . I ended up avoiding Vonage and using multiple other providers. That said, I believe that many users of non-BYOD ITSPs would benefit from a proxy such as you describe. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of anyone that has implemented it yet. If you undertake such a project, IMO you should do it in Asterisk, or as a separate process that can run on the same machine as Asterisk, because many more people would use it and contribute to its development. --Stewart
