Can I force native bridging, or does it default to that if I don't configure direct media? The dialplan will be very simple - extensions calling extensions within a context. No DTMF, no recording, no mixing for conference, etc. You cannot force native bridging. It will switch to native bridging if you don't set anything that makes Asterisk interested in the media stream. Such as enabling DTMF features in features.conf and Dial flags like t or T. Richard -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
