asterisk users - Nov 2006 - Vonage uses Cisco

I have read different posts over the months wondering who Vonage uses for
their VoIP technologies. I stumbled across this article (although it's from
2002, I think) that suggests strongly that they use Cisco. There is no
telling what they might use in conjunction with this but this should clear
some of the conjecture.

That PR page quotes Vonage VP saying

"Our SIP-through-Network Address Translation [NAT] technology is unique
in the industry," says Babu. "Cisco helped us solve many of the
technical and business challenges of bringing this unique service to
market."

	What do you think Vonage SIPoNAT does that other Cisco customers don't
get? That we can't do with Asterisk outside the NAT and SIP softphones
(like X-lite)? That we can't do with IAX? Finally, does Cisco offer any
special features for using IAX with Asterisk?
