If you are interested in prebuilt solutions, you may consider TransNexus's NexOSS product (www.transnexus.com). The Open Settlement Protocol (OSP) they implemented can be used with Asterisk - they have a module. In fact, I am not sure about the commercial status of the OSP module as such; it may be possible to get it free of charge. Not sure. But OSP is an open protocol, so perhaps it's possible. Otherwise, I would think that the best way to approach this would be to make it fully outboard and divest it of Asterisk. Implement a SIP proxy that forwards to providers using LCR decisionmaking, and just have Asterisk send calls to it. OpenSER can be used for this - and indeed, there is an OSP module for it as well, if you wanted to go that route. If you're dead-set on doing it in Asterisk and don't want to do OSP, I would suggest FastAGI. Definitely don't implement the logic in the dial plan, at any cost. -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web : http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel : (+1) (678) 954-0670 Direct : (+1) (678) 954-0671 Mobile : (+1) (706) 338-8599 _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
