Hi, Thanks to those who hinted on the SIP/H323/Skinny capabilities of asterisk ... I am starting to like this app! :D Now, I successfully managed to bridge SIP to H323 (i don't have skinny phones here). Just a question: Is it possible to have Asterisk "just" as a signalling proxy? i have a flat test network, and i would like the RTP streams to be sent directly end to end (sip phone to h323 phone). It should be possible ... but is it possible with asterisk? Thanks! Cesc

It should be possible ... but is it possible with asterisk?No. It's certainly possible but at this time there's no interaction between the RTP clients, the various channel drivers. /Olle --- Olle E.

If the channel driver(s) also support sending the RTP peer address to the endpoint (as chan_sip does with reinvite), then a direct media path should also be possible. -- Kevin P.
