Hi,

I am new to freeswitch and wish to bolt it into our existing network to provide conferencing services.

Currently we just use an opensips/rtpproxy configuration for simple proxy switching.

However looking at the features of freeswitch it seems to me that I could replace my entire setup with just the freeswitch platform. Would that be a fair comment?

If so then there a number of things that I am struggling to find clearly defined in the documentation.

1. Currently our rtp proxy scenario issues a port to come back on but waits for incoming rtp packets to determine the exact port to return rtp on when the caller is behind a nat. Does freeswitch do this, does it need to be configured to work that way? Freeswitch would be on a public address.

2. Currently opensips stores all user info in a mysql database and with 500000+ users is easy to manipulate. How do you deal with such a large user database in a pure xml environment such as freeswitch?

Many thanks for any help you can offer.

Regards

Chris
