[Freeswitch-users] To Proxy Media or Not

[Max Clark]

Hello,

I have a couple of FreeSWITCH boxes functioning as SBCs on our
network. We need them to:

- Route Calls
- Function as B2BUAs for call logging
- Hide topology from the endpoints

They do not need to:

- Intercept/play audio
- Manipulate the SDP
- Transcode
- Process anything other than SIP

So these machines have been running with Proxy Media enabled in the
dialplan. Is the the proper/recommended way of configuring for our
environment/needs? Is the minimal gain of resources by not processing
the RTP worth it?

Thanks,
Max
