Thanks for your response. Yeah, I was able to get that to work with a multi-line phone. I'm thinking the best way to handle this might be to try to work with a command line based softphone. PJSUA (http://www.pjsip.org/pjsua.htm) supports multiple lines, and it looks like it can do conferencing as well. I'll try to test it sometime soon to see if it works, and then go about trying to automate it.It would be convenient if there was to do this purely on the server without having to use a client, but at least it looks like there are some possibilities with automating a softphone.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Oliver Garraux Sent: Monday, January 25, 2010 4:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [sipx-users] Connecting Multiple Conferences Together Hey, I'm trying to do a proof of concept right now for possible implementing conferencing between a couple of sites using SIPXecs. These sites have very limited bandwidth between them (and the bandwidth is needed for other purposes), so I'm trying set up two separate conferences on each end, and connect those conferences together. There are multiple people on each side that are on various conferences, so instead of having all of those separate connections going across the WAN, I'd like to have one - with all of the audio from the site mixed together. (This is really the whole point of the project, they have a conference server on one side right now, but its killing them bandwidth wise to have so many people accessing the conference remotely). I've tried inviting one conference to the other, and I hear a "beep" in the other conference but nothing occurs other than that. I'm thinking that if I could have one conference as a member of the other conference, that would do what I'm wanting. I'm not sure if that's possible though. I've also tried looking at the configuration files for FreeSwitch, but I wasn't really able to get anything working with that. I don't know if this is something really easy that I'm just not understanding how to do, or not possible but I've been trying this for about six hours tonight and haven't made much progress. I was able to call in to each conference with a multi-line Grandstream phone, and conference the two conferences, and I guess that would work but I'd really like it to be seemless for the users. Anyone have suggestions or experience with this? Thanks Oliver
