DUNDi is actually not that. DUNDi is more a way of connecting independant boxes. See it as a directory service inbetween asterisk boxes. If your local box doesn't have the number that was dialed, DUNDi is asked and any box that know the number (either the full number or by prefix) will answer and give a target URI back, that let's you pass the call on. Example: a company has 4 different locations, each location has a own Asterisk box, that are maintained by local IT people. Nobody has access to the box of the other offices. DUNDi now makes it possible to automatically publish phoneno's existing on each box inbetween the boxes + eventually, what external numbers might be better to dial trough either of them. This concept of course can be used in a bigger concept and for sharing numbers worldwide. Slán leat, Martin List-Petersen Mulrook, Co.
