I tried to document the RSA public/private key authentication of IAX2 channels on the wiki. Please read through and correct me if I'm wrong, thank you.

I feel that the RSA auth within IAX2 is a strong selling point. However, to be used it needs to be explained...
Some comments: * The variables in iax.conf for keys are inconsistent - inkeys and outkey Could be "inkey" and "outkey", or maybe the other way around, since we're using two keys outbound. * There's a comment in res_crypto about crashes and thread safety that worries me. * On the wiki page I propose a small change to astgenkey to disable pass phrases. T he password input routine doesn't work well with automatic restarts of Asterisk. Even though not using a passphrase for the key is a security risk, I don't want asterisk to wait for keyboard input after a power failure.
Again, comments and suggestions are welcome :-)
