Not to mention that Polycom, and possibly Sangoma do not support Asterisk
directly. Last time I checked (about 6 months ago) Polycom would not support
Asterisk at all, and would not certify resellers on Asterisk. It takes a
reseller committed to Asterisk and who has done the integration legwork to
support these configurations. Sangoma support is very good, but I wouldn't
expect them to help you troubleshoot your zaptel/asterisk configs.
