<div>At what point does this seriously become an issue? 100 concurrent calls? 1000? If you&#39;re proxying media anyway the IP rewriting sounds pretty minimal.</div><div><br></div><div>More info about NAT, one way media, and how sipsorcery is a SIP proxy that doesn&#39;t ever proxy media but can still set up calls with 2 way media would be much appreciated.</div>

FreeSWITCHers, <br> <br>  As some of you may have noticed I frequently comment on SIP-related <br>FreeSWITCH posts.  Long story short I decided to finally put some of <br>these thoughts and experiences down in writing.  What I ended up with <br>

is a 21 page (and counting) document describing various SIP header <br>fields, SDP information, RTP issues, DTMF issues, NAT traversal <br>technologies, interop headaches, etc. <br> <br>  I wrote a little intro and linked to the document if any of you <br>

would like to check it out (link at the end of post): <br> <br><a href="http://blog.krisk.org/2012/06/everything-you-wish-you-didnt-need-to.html" target="_blank">http://blog.krisk.org/2012/06/everything-you-wish-you-didnt-need-to.html</a> <br>

 <br>  Of course I&#39;d appreciate any feedback you may have.  What do you <br>disagree with?  Find a typo?  Have burning SIP/RTP/SDP/T.38/codec <br>questions you&#39;d like to see me address?  Should I get into more <br>

implementation (FreeSWITCH) specific issues?  Let me know. <br> <br>Thanks! <br> <br>--  <br>Kristian Kielhofner <br> <br>_________________________________________________________________________ <br>Professional FreeSWITCH Consulting Services: <br>
