Re[2]: [Serusers] Prefix to Domains vs ENUM

AM> Well, people are already used to remember/keep numbers. It simply AM> depends. I'll probably print sip:axelm@nic.at43.at on my business card, AM> but i'll put +4359966366003 into my mobile phone. Every answer rises a question :) Lets imagine 2 situations: someone is calling you from pstn, he rings your number, your pbx directs the call to your desk. Thats plain old telco style, even if you have an ip pbx. Then I compose your number in my grandtec phone, my server is configured to ask for the translation of your number to a SIP address using ENUM. The "central authority" resolves the number because he knows that "+435996636" is "nic.at43.at" phone, and 6003 is the extension of "axelm". Thats looks a lot like "lcr" with autofallback, user EVERY time someone calls out from an Ip PBX or SIP server, great stuff. BUT: I checked and it looks like +878 is the "international prefix" for IP telephony. What is it for if you are using your usual phone number ? Maybe for "pure ip" services, no pstn at all ? Thank you, I'm more involved into this now .... AM> yep, you're perfectly on track. AM> I'm currently not aware of the activities in Italy. I'll try to find AM> out, please stay tuned. Tnx, it looks very interesting, by the way I'm tryng to steer my company to this field very soon. AM> cheers AM> axelm -- Best regards, Alessio mailto:alessiof@interconnessioni.it
