Hi Michael, The DID is transported via SIP to the router. From the router to the POTS provider, it's PRI. On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 12:34 AM, Michael Collins <msc@freeswitch.org>wrote:
How is the DID transported? SIP, PRI, analog DID trunks? -MC

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.
