[asterisk-users] Dundi x ENUM

2007-08-15 Thread Ronaldo
Hi all,

I've just being wondering if Dundi has the same purpose as ENUM.  I 
don't know much (actually almost nothing) about these technologies. As 
far as I know they are a kind of DNS resolver used in the VoIP context. 
For example, user [EMAIL PROTECTED] has the extension namber 1001. This 
way nobody has to know the ronaldo's extension number.
I'll appreciate if someone can clear my understanding about that?

Thanks in advance.
Ronaldo.

The two are totally different.
Dundi is used to provide callrouting information between
asterisk boxen. For more information:

Enum is a way to not having to remember all my phone
numbers, email addresses, IM accounts etc.
Basically you get e phonenumber, and a special DNS record
maps that phonenumber to more contact information.
