[Freeswitch-users] SIP server? PBX vs. softswitch?

[Brian West]

It depends on how you look at it... most will say there is no  
difference... but last I checked you usually don't run heavy apps on a  
softswitch.

FreeSWITCH can be everything from softphone to softswitch and  
everything in between including PBX.  The default config comes  
configured as a PBX.
