The iax configuration file /etc/asterisk/iax.conf contains a variety of samples and comments that should give you enough information to play with and if you have any trouble you can ask a specific question here which is far more likely to get you going than a general "I don't know but how can I do it?" post or a post containing a whole bunch of questions. Please note that this is not meant as criticism, I am just trying to be helpful and tell you the facts. Another good source is the Asterisk Wiki at http://www.voip-info.org. However, you will need to browse a little to find the various bits and pieces of interest to you. > First, I have 3 asterisk servers running. One is my firewall here in > Buenos Aires, Argentina. If you are in BA, you might want to consider contacting Nicolas Gudino and pay him something for his time to sit down with you setting up IAX peering on your servers and teaching you in the process so you can do it all by yourself in the future. And even if you don't have any budget to pay somebody you might still want to hook up since local Asterisk user groups, even tiny ones with only two or three members can be helpful when it comes to sharing tips and tricks and exchanging information. > So far I'm able to get machines registering with each other just fine, > but I'm running into problems with how to organize extensions.conf, when > or where to use the switch=> functionality, and how to specify, assign, > allow, and/or disallow [contexts] by IAX2 with that switch feature. > Perhaps I shouldn't be using it at all.

It is generally not advisable to export and import the entire dialplan but only those contexts you really need and only into contexts where you really need them. To give any more specific advice would require taking a closer look at the relevant dialplans. rgds benjk -- Sunrise Telephone Systems, 9F Shibuya Daikyo Bldg., 1-13-5 Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan.
