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
Keep doing what you are doing with OpenSIPS. Add FreeSWITCH for things it's good at: - SBC functionality - Hosted voice apps (like conferencing) FreeSWITCH is good at those other things too but the SERs are still king of scale.

Hi, Thanks for the quick response. Okay that seems fair however for calls I wish to route through Freeswitch I would prefer not to add the additional step of the rtpproxy app for natting the rtp. Can you confirm whether Freeswitch will do the same natting function as rtpproxy by substituting the signalled rtp return port with the actual port from incoming rtp packets from the source. This would simplify things greatly.
