Hi Brian,<div><br></div><div>I did not find the mandatory requirement for the proxy server to proxy also media:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3261.txt">http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3261.txt</a></div>
<div><br></div><div><div>Proxy, Proxy Server: An intermediary entity that acts as both a</div><div> server and a client for the purpose of making requests on</div><div> behalf of other clients. A proxy server primarily plays the</div>
<div> role of routing, which means its job is to ensure that a</div><div> request is sent to another entity "closer" to the targeted</div><div> user. Proxies are also useful for enforcing policy (for</div>
<div> example, making sure a user is allowed to make a call). A</div><div> proxy interprets, and, if necessary, rewrites specific parts of</div><div> a request message before forwarding it.</div><div>
<br></div><div>So I am still not convinced that I cannot name FreeSWITCH in Bypass Media mode as a PROXY :-)</div><div>Because it does all the things described:</div><div><br></div><div>1.intermediary entity</div><div>2.plays the role of routing</div>
<div>3.its job is to ensure that a request is sent to another entity "closer" to the targeted user</div><div><br></div><div>Please pay attention that nothing is written about media here.</div><div><br></div><div>
