A PBX provides functionality to users. An SBC *can* secure a PBX against the outside world, but that is configuration dependent. The more powerful the SBC, the more configuration it requires to make things work, let alone secure whatever it is supposed to protect. An SBC is in essence a B2BUA, looking quote a lot like a really simple pass through Asterisk configuration. -- Andreas -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
