This has got to be one of the most ridiculous limitations I've heard of in recent times. I'm glad someone mentioned it because it immediately drops sipx to the bottom of our list as a candidate to replace our trixbox installation...which lives happily with multiple interfaces.
With "Network Admin" hat on: multi-homing servers that are configured to sit on both public and private networks is as common as dust under a sofa. If you have a NAS or SAN setup, you've probably got multiple interfaces. If you pull backups across your network, you've probably got multiple interfaces. Out of the 30 or so servers we currently have deployed, maybe two of them have a single interface and they're on the "need to upgrade" list. Wasn't this issue supposed to get fixed for 3.10? http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/msg08283.html -mark Andrew Cotter wrote: > That is the kind of definitive answer I was looking for!
