Hi all,
Consider the following scenario: Calling party --> DID provider --> Cisco AS5300 --> POTS provider --> Called party
The Calling party calls a number provided by the DID provider. This is then processed by the AS5300 facing the POTS provider to do the following number translation: ANI = 1 + DNIS (the ANI assumes the identify of the DNIS prefixed with "1"). The Cisco AS5300 then sends a "prefix" which is actually the number of the Called party in their system (of the POTS provider). However, the Cisco AS5300 has a finite limit on the number of translations (approx. 128-300 translations). Can the number translation be done on FreeSWITCH instead?
Calling party --> DID provider --> FreeSWITCH --> Cisco AS5300 --> POTS provider --> Called party
This can also evolve into:
Calling party --> DID provider --> FreeSWITCH --> Cisco AS5300[1] --> POTS provider --> Called party
\ /
+-----> Cisco AS5300[2] --->+
If we wanted to increase the number of ports the POTS provider.
