Something I've just noticed that might persuade me to move to 1.4 ... in
iax.conf, there is a new option:
transfer=mediaonly
Does this mean that it keeps itself in the loop as far as signalling/CDR
is concerned, but lets the media stream go between the 2 endpoints?
ie.
Asterisk A <-> Asterisk B <-> Asterisk C
Where B keeps track of CDRs, so right now I have notransfer=yes in my 1.2
config files, but if I put transfer=mediaonly in my 1.4 config file, will
it then let A and C talk directly without going via B, but keep B in the
loop for billing information?
And if so.. Does this require 1.4 at all 3 sites, or just Site B ?
Thanks,
Gordon |

Yes, that's exactly what it means.

Excellent!
What about the need for 1.4 at all sites? Is it sufficient to just have it
in the "man in the middle" site?
Thanks,

It uses new IAX2 commands, so it requires that all three endpoints
understand those commands. At this time the only IAX2 implementations
that I am aware of that support media-only transfers are Asterisk 1.4
and Asterisk 1.6 beta releases.
