HI Matt, That sounds very cool. Will certainly give it a try.
Bill -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Gamble [mailto:mgam...@mgamble.ca] Sent: November 23, 2012 5:30 PM To: asterisk Mailing Subject: [on-asterisk] Introducing iaxproxy - a simple IAX2->SIP Proxy All, I'm very happy to be able to share with you a project I've been working on in my spare time - iaxproxy.org. While not directly related to Asterisk per se, I believe the project will be of interest to members of the Asterisk community. IAXProxy is an open source IAX2 to SIP Back-to-back Protocol Adapter (B2BPA) based originally off Asterisk. The goal of IAXProxy is to allow anyone the freedom to integrate IAX2 based end-points seamlessly into a SIP environment. Previously interconnecting IAX based devices to a SIP based network was challenging at best, requiring the network operator to run dedicated Asterisk PBX's to connect these devices. The result was that IAX2 based users were always "second class citizens" in a SIP environment - the SIP "core" was not aware of the device state of an IAX2 endpoint (registered/unregistered), etc. IAXProxy changes that by providing "surrogate registration" type functionality for IAX2 devices. When an IAX2 end point connects to IAXProxy the endpoint information is looked up in an internal in-memory database and assuming the IAX2 device passes authentication then a SIP Peer and SIP Registrar are created on the users behalf. When the IAX2 endpoint becomes unreachable the SIP Peer & Registrar are deleted. This allows the SIP network to be fully aware of the state of IAX2 devices and features such as Call Forwarding Unreachable to be provisioned at the SIP Server level. The software is currently very "alpha" but it does work and allows you to make and receive calls using IAX2 devices to a SIP network. I'm currently looking for anyone interested in assisting with this project - I need help with testing, documentation, etc so if you are interested please let me know. You can download the initial release from http://www.iaxproxy.org or directly from GitHub (https://github.com/primuslabs/iaxproxy) I'm very excited about this initial release and look forward to the community feedback. Thanks! Matthew M.
