N A commented on ASTERISK-30134:
--------------------------------

> The point here is that the HINTS works with SIP, and PJSIP but doesn't work with IAX2.
> I guess the topic explains the issue. I am not looking for a workaround.

Your earlier comments suggested otherwise: 
"The monitoring for IAX2 hints always return unavailable; this makes impossible using IAX2 devices on queues. Due to the hint always return Unavailable, the call will never reach or ring agents using IAX2 devices."

and

"The main problem here is that you cannot use the IAX2 devices on the queues because it's not possible to monitor their status."

That made it seem like you just want to be able to ring your individual IAX2 endpoints.
The fact is it's not impossible to use IAX2 devices in queues, as you implied. You can use IAX2 endpoints in a queue if you want to.

As I already stated, UNKNOWN / UNAVAILABLE seem to be used to indicate IAX2 device state. There is no native device state functionality otherwise for IAX2, and never has been. This isn't really a bug, just a limitation, and if this were added, it would probably be a new feature, not a bug fix.
