Yes, but that name is deprecated.  The preferred name to use when
configuring this feature is 'directmedia'.

Yes.

The sip.config.sample delivered with Asterisk provides a good
explanation of this feature.  To summarize, for two devices on a
network that can support the behavior enabled by this feature,
this setting allows the media stream to be directed directly between
the caller and the callee, such that the media stream no longer
passes through Asterisk.
