For sure I would use Kamailio as an SBC, but nevertheless I see these sortcoming in Kamailio (I don't know hov other SBCs handle this) - config changes require a restart: most of the time this goes fast, but sometimes processes may fail to start (ports not freed by the OS, ...). Further, state

I'm curious re. your statement about P-CSCF. What does LI and transcoding have to do with Kamailio? As already mentioned these functions are available only in B2BUA which Kamailio is *not*. What other issues then did you have with P-CSCF impl. using Kamailio. Also, how did P-CSCF even get into this

Hi, As the maintainers of SEMS we fully agree with Carsten and Alex: the SBC module of SEMS is a good replacement of a typical SBC. If one also is looking for ease of usage, support, high availability and a powerful GUI then the answer is the ABC SBC which is based on SEMS and the SBC module. A fr

Hi Luis, i wouldn't be too sure of that: - HMR can be done with Text-Ops - all the SIP-Routing options can be done by routing-logic (e.g. by Route-Header, by Time of day, by method, ...) The only thing missing here, is maybe acting as a B2BUA and proper support for Session-Timers (which are end-t
