using ip based acl (this is not authentication as registration is), was answered in the first reply.i have a flowroute connection also and this is how i configured it and i expressed how it works. I don't understand the need to beat this discussion as it was answered exactly how to configure it and use it.
I have only seen one provider require IP based ACL and normal authentication to place calls, Level3. They are unique and sipx wont do what they want without a carefully designed sbc connection. Flowroute just gives you a choice of registration or ip based acl. ... use the bandwidth.com template and be done with it. i still think of a vpri as a hardware based solution to share a (hardware/circuit based) PRI. A PRI is a PRI. A sip trunk is not a PRI... happy 2012 kill this thread please?
