[Asterisk-Users] AMP or Asterisk

[Scott Kamp]

Yes you can modify the config file..... So I dont see this as a con, Ive
run AMP over Asterisk for months now, to me it was just easier, and Ive
customized it also for our environment. There is a huge argument for
dialplan programming, it can be very very cumbersome.

>    - some apps don't work with Zap interfaces, for example
