FreeSWITCH and Asterisk both support it. I don't know of any SIP to PSTN gateway available through an ISP that does, but on the other hand, IPv6 certainly simplifies making calls to other peoples' SIP clients or FreeSWITCH/Asterisk systems (provided they have it on their networks, of course). In essence, NAT goes away. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
