Re: [SR-Users] Kamailio as basic dispatcher for load balancing

What I‘m aiming for is a SaaS solution where users can build audio on demand flows (like Podcasts, Audio Books, Audio guides etc.) via phone. Currently, they bring their VoIP providers, which require registering with username and password. I also wasn’t aware that usually it works via trusted IPs, thanks for that hint. Already learning a lot here! As our users usually want to have a local phone number to promote, I think also in the future we will not go with blocks of numbers. But as of now I cannot say for sure. I think outgoing will be a feature we want to provide later on, e.g. to be connected to someone. Thanks again! Philipp > On 11.
