There's not really much to session timers except periodic re-INVITEs that re-assert an existing SDP offer/answer.

At your scale, those things may just not be a big deal. I'm not about to ask you for your total volume or revenue on a public list. But when you grow and find you suddenly need to pay for all this crap just to handle a massive influx of media for no real reason except to minimise billing errata... -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web : http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel : (+1) (678) 954-0670 Direct : (+1) (678) 954-0671 Mobile : (+1) (678) 237-1775 _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
