Re: [asterisk-users] IAX complaints? What are they?
Ouch. Why do they almost all feel they have to use 'IAX' in their title? Pain. While not half as bad, it's somewhat reminiscent of the iJunk everyone seems to sell to capitalise on the iPhone phenomenon. N.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAX complaints? What are they?
Griefs? rejected connect attempt from 111.111.111.111, who was trying to reach '12345678' No authority found call rejected by 111.111.111.111: No authority found But once it works it works... I have DTMF issues with sending calls from 1.2 to what I suspect is a really old 1.4 build via IAX that then hands those calls off as SIP . But I suspect it could be fixed in the SIP configuration.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAX complaints? What are they?
How recent? I tried switching from 1.2 to 1.4 about 4 months ago, and asterisk would stop accepting IAX connections in less than a day and would need to be restarted. This is with about 50 to 100 calls at a time on each box for about 10 or 12 hours a day. Less for the other half. And all IAX calls are being passed on to a far end terminator via SIP. I was going to scrap IAX entirely because it didn't seem to scale well (for non-trunking apps, at least), but many customers need it for various reasons.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAX complaints? What are they?
Same with me IAX trunking worked great up until about 10 calls. Then it went down hill. This was back on 1.2, I haven't tried it since. So maybe it has been fixed?
