Hi.

I will have to manage From asterisk to clients IP-phones, so biefly the idea
is to multiplex voip flows in large packets and multicast them from
asterisk/AP to client stations. flows from client stations to asterisk
gateway go unicast. I wonder how iax2 protocol will be good for multiplex
(trunk) and multicast ??

Hmm, it won't be easy.

The IAX protocol is not multicast aware, so it is expecting a single ack to each

full frame. You will have to do quite a bit of work on the IAX implementation

for it to do the right thing in that area.

I'm also not sure I see the advantage of multicast, given that normally

phone calls are 1 to 1 connections, (except conferences I suppose).

Is it a packet size problem ?
