You are correct Scott, thank you. After re-reading your comments, I tried differently. I know that my main issue is not knowing the exact order of configuration. I messed up the remote workers simply because I chose to tie the default SBC to Internet calling when it had no reason to be - discovered from your key explanation.
I have gotten ITSP and remote workers working via incorrect order / procedures - but never together at the same time. At this point, I am looking for proper next step into adding an ITSP like Flowroute - not HOW but WHAT order? Add another SBC, then a Gateway for Flowroute to connect to, the a dial-plan? Do I create a new dial plan or custom? One can re-read these docs, and even book which I purchased, but until you start driving, it does not completely click or make sense. At the end of this, I plan on having a video of how all this works for the next newb! Thanks again. --- On Sat, 11/21/09, Scott Lawrence <scott.lawre...@nortel.com> wrote: > From: Scott Lawrence <scott.lawre...@nortel.com> > Subject: Re: [sipx-users] sipX Bridge > To: "Jordan Turner" <jordan.turner1...@yahoo.com> > Cc: sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org > Date: Saturday, November 21, 2009, 4:04 AM > On Fri, 2009-11-20 at 19:39 -0800, > Jordan Turner wrote: > > > When I say "test" bridge, I mean the default > SBC.
