Ok.

Ok, so an "iax2 show channels" looking like this:
wu-ast*CLI> iax2 show channels

with 640ms and 695ms jitter buffer for the first channel are just old 
numbers...  and since this machine is just bridging, then the lag, jitter and 
jitter buffer numbers are meaningless.

But for the calls coming in and out of the PRI on this box (i.e. not 
bridging), the lag, jitter and jitter buffer numbers are meaningful...  got 
it.

I'm definitely going to put a feature request in that if the call is bridged 
that the lag/jitter/jitbuf is perhaps replaced with the ID of the leg it's 
bridged with...   i.e. put something meaningful in there.  :-)

Thank you for your description of what's going on and how it's all working.  I 
really appreciate it.

Andrew
