Thanks for your response. I'm looking specifically at Asterisk in a SIP-only implementation. So no need for Asterisk to transfer calls between PSTN and SIP. Is there in such a case still a need for a PBX/Asterisk? >From what I understand, as long as two users know eachother's IP addresses there's no need for Asterisk, is this correct? I'm talking here about a pure SIP implementation.
so if you have u1 and u2 and they simply wish to communicate and they have eachother's IP, do they need Asterisk for something? Also, in a pure SIP implementation, what does Asterisk offer and what is Asterisk required for?
