Hi,


I realise this is an old question, but I’m struggling to get my head around it.


The ERD suggests that endpoints can link to multiple AoRs


In what situation would you actually use this? Given that mapping of inbound calls is primary done to the endpoint,
In my very limited understanding, it seems inbound calls, if properly configured, are targeted to AoRs, not endpoints.
This allows for several physical devices to be notified of the same incoming call.


Following this route, one hurdle to take on is when transferring calls from one device to the other one(s), with the same endpoint.



Maybe, some with a better understanding or knowledge may correct or confirm the above statements.

Incoming and outgoing as concepts get fun when you're talking about Asterisk and things in general because it changes based on where you are observing things from. Sticking to Asterisk, an AOR is used for outbound calls to a device. It's a named entity that gets mapped to how to contact it (a statically configured SIP URI, one added by registration). An AOR is also a defined SIP concept and in fact when you REGISTER you are saying "add my Contact to this AOR".

Having multiple allows you to separate devices some for the same endpoint, but that functionality depends on the device in question. Many simplify everything down to a username/password - so they assume the AOR is the username and can't be changed. It's easiest to just stick to 1 unless you have great reason to.
