[Asterisk-Users] Realtime Subscribecontext

[Douglas Garstang]

Oh dear. This is not good news.
 
The issues of NAT, call limit handling and registration expiration don't sound quite so bad. I think we can live with those, if we can in fact just get a central location database. Do you have any suggestions or ideas about how this can be implemented with Asterisk? Because, honestly, right now this current limitation is proving to be a real thorn in our side.
 
Doug.

I'm sitting here on a Sunday jerking around with it, having problems. I'd like to know before I spend more Sundays doing the same thing if it's even supposed to work or not.
	
	Uhhh... you already quoted my previous message on that topic stating
	that it was not supported at this time. In any given situation, it may
	or may not work properly, depending on exactly what the servers and
	clients are doing.
	
	Even if the code had been written, there will still be many issues
	involved in actually implementing it, including (but not limited to) NAT
	traversal, call limit handling, registration expiration and others. It
	also mandates that there can be _no_ caching of peer/user information in
	memory, which currently means there is no 'qualify' or MWI notification
	possible.
