My view on the world: Simplicity for an extra 4 extensions (as in "4 
trunks") in a remote location can be achieved without an extra SipX.




Good points Todd.

One of my favorite sayings...  "simplicity breeds reliability."

Mike, You've entertained that discussion on several occasions during the
past.  From my perspective you are so focused on a single box solution for
whatever reason, you miss the important part of it - creating a reliable
platform for voice.   Over the years, it's no secret that those that run
data networks would love to have as reliable a network as those that run
voice networks.  The idea is to make the voice network reliable, and not a
victim to firewall software issues, or other nonsense that takes away from
that.

Surely, this beast is complex enough for you, is it not.  Why make it more
complex and unreliable.

Leave the router as a router.  Leave the firewall as a firewall, leave the
voice server as a voice server, and leave your entire network reliable.

Subject: Re: [sipx-users] Shared trunks between servers

Hijack the thread, it's all useful information anyhow. However, 
practically
everything mentioned is overkill :).
It's just a remote 4 trunk sipx setup which will use G.729 so there won't 
be
much bandwidth involved.

Using SIP trunks is the simplest install but I'd love to test a vpn back 
to
the main office from this remote to let it get trunks from the mediant
directly. That only entails a low bandwidth vpn using pfsense.

I've never set up a vpn using pfsense but it sure would have been nice to 
do
something directly off of the sipx server in order to eliminate another 
box
in the mix.
