As they all said above.
I think IAX is supported on some Cisco equipment for WAN connectivity,
making it useful for interconnecting back-end systems and servers (e.g.
server to server rather than server to UA).
I believe IAX uses the same port(s) for signalling as for media, as compared
to SIP vs RTP using separate streams. This makes it easier when doing
port-forwarding and may give it an advantage for NAT traversal.
That being said, it is not yet an officially recognised protocol (from what
I heard) and has not yet been as widely adopted as SIP. In short, you will
find more SIP-enabled devices than you will find IAX devices, though there
are some IAX softphones around.

this
I can
do...
IAX -----------> OPENSER -----> ASTERISK ---------> SIP/IAX.
I don't think this one would work. It would need to be:
IAX -------> Asterisk -------> OpenSER ------> Asterisk -------> IAX

How ?
This one would be just like the one above:
IAX -------> Asterisk -------> OpenSER ------> Asterisk -------> IAX
> Help me this.... forgive me in English.... :P
I would recommend you to use SIP, because I think Asterisk is the only
server
that supports IAX, and almost all phones are SIP
phones, not IAX phones.
I
believe IAX is mostly designed to connect two
Asterisk servers.
Indeed, IAX means Inter Asterisk Exchange. It came up with Asterisk.
