Dear Mike:
There is only a little bit explain in your package "b2bua_asterisk_v0.1.1.tgz".
README: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Asterisk B2BUA project.
Installation: Compile and install asterisk from asterisk_b2bua.tgz
Install perl MD5 Package. edit agi/config.pl in extensions.conf call agi script from DeadAGI. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems not enough for a new user like me to understand what it is and how to start.
I have established the Asterisk as your explain, but I don't know how to setup asterisk to accept my call from ser. Of cause, I know how to route my call from UA to SER then route to a Trunking gateway or Asterisk.
But how to setting Asterisk? It is a BIG problem for me.
Thank you for your kind to answer my question, Mike.
Best Regard Charles

It works in production. Few tenth of calls are relayed, for me it stable enough.

It can rewrite, or it can left it unchanged (2 rewriting functions exists - simple rewriting, like asterisk rewriting, and advanced using regular expressions)
CW> Q2. How can B2BUA know when to tear-down this call if the call has some limits. CW> For example, UA1 has only 120 seconds to use this International call.
You must return Session-Timeout attribute from your radius server for it.
CW> Q3. Is it necessary for Radius Authentication? Is it possible if no CW> radius exists CW> and SER and Asterisk use the same MySQL database.
It developed it to use with radius, but you can check AGI scrpit, it written in PERL, and I think very simple, you can add any functionality.
CW> Q4. What do I need to download and setup when I use Asterisk CW> to start this prepaid compoment? The first one shall be CW> asterisk-1.0.5.tar.gz. CW> Maybe some Mysql supported scripts or installaion. And any more??
You need to download 2 parts of application and install them. Some short instructions inside

P.S. It's SER maillist, I think you should write to forum at b2bua.berlios.de (or I will create some maillist there.)
P.P.S. It's first version of this tool, so don't punch me very much about bugs ;)
