</div>What he means is that you're not likely to be able to buy IAX<br>
termination off someone like verizon or global crossing or whatever.<br>
<br>
There's currently no decent IAX load balancer, so you have to do it<br>
other ways - for SIP there are a few choices.<br>
<br>
We work around it by having lots of boxes and round robin DNS, but it's<br>
pretty rare - most people just do SIP.<br>
