[Asterisk-Users] Some IAX questions

[Tim Pushor]

Hi,

Is this a silly question? I am trying to come up with an elegant way of 
joining a few small * servers in a peer to peer arrangement, and I am 
just curious as to what algorithm * uses to determine which channel (and 
therefore context) an inbound call belongs to (IAX and SIP)..

Also, knowing when name resolution happens would be beneficial if the 
peer * boxes had dynamic IP's and dynamic dns ...

Thanks,
Tim
