</div>Well this may depend of some parameter. We have a dual BRI line from<br>
France Telecom, in PTP mode.<br>

</div>Well, i agree on something, when you are using PTMP mode, being able to<br>
do it both way is very usefull (for transperency placing an * between a<br>
legacy pabx and the 'outside world').<br>
However it's when their is at least one NT mode, you could always<br>
reconfigure the pabx (but you lose the ability to reconnect him directly<br>
to the bri line<br>
in case of problem)<br>

</div><div class="Ih2E3d">> NT PTMP is very significantly different, in that you have to do much<br>
</div>Their is an unannonced mISN-1.1.9 release (and even 1.1.9.1 now). Since<br>
their is no release note i can't say for sur they fixed this<br>

</div>Why so ?<br>
As for myself am very interested in red-fone boxes, being able to<br>
separate the ipbx and the PRI 'access point' ahs some advantage (easier<br>
resiliency)</blockquote><div><br>I agree that separating functions into several boxes is fine but today,
it would be touchy (if possible) to build all boxes using Asterisk and
Digium boards, for example ...<br>If we want Asterisk ecosystem to develop (buying
boards paying software development), it's important to be able to build
those boxes using components made by companies (Digium, Xorcom, ...) contributing to Asterisk
code ...<br><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
