[VOIPSEC] Open SBC?

[Klaus Darilion]

Hi Martyn!

It depends on features you require from a SBC. E.g. ser/openser is very 
powerful for NAT traversal. There are also modules to block DoS 
(pike/ratelimit).

For other features like topology hiding and call tear down you need a 
B2BUA, thus ser/openser can't be used - but Asterisk.

Thus, if you want an openser source SBC you can combine (open)ser and 
Asterisk nad you will have a very flexible SBC - but of course it will 
be lot of work for configuration and wont run out-of-the-box like 
commercial SBCs.

regards
klaus
