The only scenario you describe that requires proxy media is custom codecs. All of the other scenarios you describe can be done without enabling proxy media. Even in the case of custom codecs, a small module can be added to enable this without proxy media.

Dear Brian,
In practice, I find proxy media is useful. First for security application purpose there may be custom codec/ZRTP. The second, is when we dont want FS to process the media (because ZRTP or custom codec), but we dont want to use bypass mode, because sometime in Internet voice packet not fully delivered in both way if we use bypass (may be cause by double NAT), but ok when we use proxy media when FS side is not in NAT mode (thus avoiding double NAT scenario).
I hope this feature is will not gone.

So I recommend you not use proxy media as it may go away in the future.
Anything you've read that states performance improvements using proxy media are all false, the performance characteristics can't really be gauged on most modern systems.

in this part of the world we also have to proxy media, for 2 reasons, for hiding our gateways from end users because we retail as well as wholesale and plus many other providers have rtp proxy setup in different data centers, which ever is closer to the customer. FS can proxy media but if its processing a lot of calls its better to make something else proxy the media outside the FS box and things like rtpengine help a lot. Although u might argue FS should only process signalling but in real world i havent seen any trunk or carrier or vendor not proxying rtp

1. if configured right, you should never need proxy media mode. 2. What is the advantage to offloading this?

Hi Freeswitch team, First of all thank you for job you are doing! It will be nice to have integration with Rtpengine to get offload for rtp in SBC scenarios instead of PROXY-MEDIA mode. Thanks.

I know this has nothing to do with FS' version, but i'd like to see a FreeSWITCH certification. Also more training abroad (I've had to deliver occasional training in Europe). ᐧ
