[Freeswitch-users] Gateway Configuration

This is what I thought as well, where I am unclear is how you register this device
as a gateway then as it isn't like a regular sip provider by means of a gateway
definition? The gateway definition requires a username and password for example
so how do you create the basic definition to allow the spa3102 to push the call into
the public context?

I can make an outbound call as I just construct a dialplan like:
"sofia/internal/$1 at spa3102.domain.local:5060"

We use this one pstn line as backup when voip is down for whatever reason. The
company # given out is the single pstn line, its routed on busy to the sip provider
for a series of other lines. As we expect the pstn to always be working, if the
voip is up and more people call we get the calls. If voip is down, at least we have
1 line always working w/o any manual intervention. Outgoing always tries sip first
and then routes to the pstn line if required.
