In some cases one would like to be able to connect multiple SIP/IAX accounts to the same upstream server. Each account may have differing creditials etc and this can (with asterisk at least) create some authentication issues. Fortunately there exists some “solutions”.

Sunday, November 30th, 2008I recently got overly annoyed with both the office phone and my cell phone going off on me at the same time. Then I bumped into chan_mobile. Now I have some nasty ideas. Why not use bluetooth to automatically hook your cellphone up to the PBX whenever you walk into the office? Sounds hard? Well, as a matter of fact, it’s not.
A strategy for recording calls and minimizing g729 license usage
Saturday, September 6th, 2008When making recordings of g729 channels at least two decoders will be used. This means that if you have 10 licenses you can have a maximum concurrency of 5 calls going through your system that is being recorded. For anything but the smallest of switches this is not acceptable.
In addition, recording to .wav is a rather space-consuming process. Instead, we’d like to minimize the g729 license usage, as well as optimizing disk-consumption.
