Thanks. I'd entirely forgotten about that. Having the routing numbers coordinated by some benign central authority like the IANA is certainly preferable to some enthusiast web site which might or might not be around in a year. Having just skimmed RFC 3219, it seems to add quite a bit of hair to what is essentially just assigning an N-digit prefix (or suffix) to every cooperating SIP server. I'm sure that must have some advantages for whatever situations they where concerned about, but I don't really "get it". SIP already does all the routing and redirect internally so having the redirecting done at the top level seems redundant. Ideally, for me at least, would be a simple ascii list in the style of /etc/services or /etc/protocols that had an official mapping of dialing-prefix and sip-server name (or domain name with _sip._udp SRV entries). If there is enough interest, maybe the greater asterisk community could adopt some semi-official mapping tables. I'd be willing to periodically generate a flat mapping file and an extension.conf dialplan snippet from sipbroker's list or whatever else is deemed more neutral or useful if there was any interest in such. -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
