We have an asterisk frontend terminating all our SIP phones
to, and an<br>
asterisk backend with a wildcard PRI card in it connecting to
the PTSN.<br>
The frontend handles 99% of dialplan logic and just hands off
anything<br>
outgoing to the backend via IAX2, which dials out on one of
the open<br>
channels.<br>

There is a world wide network of users who communicate using IAX,
and many with PSTN service from providers using IAX. with no
complaints<br>
Can someone please provide meaningful details on what "buggy" really
means? Rather than such a sweeping condemnation. If it is so buggy,
why isn't it either fixed or discontinued?<br>
<br>
It certainly is much less prone to hacking and abuse than SIP.
Probably not due to the protocol design as much as it isn't as
universal<br>
