Flexibility
I will also like to modify the fact that IAX is very flexibile, because it sounds like advertising and because is not true. Compared with SIP, IAX is very less flexibile, because is based on IE's - Information Element - that has to be defined for every single new feature. IAX is very efficient, since every voice packet has just 4 bytes overhead insted of 12 bytes for RTP, and in trunking mode is even more efficient. Another problem with IAX is that is as flexibile as Asterisk is, and is very dependent on a single implementation. Basically in there world are just 2 implementations of an IAX library for server, and one is the original Asterisk one and one is for Yate. Freeswitch library is made for a client not for a server and is over used. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Diana cionoiu (talk • contribs) 22:04, August 9, 2007 (UTC)

Basic Properties
Regarding the {fact} tag in the first sentence of Basic Properties section -- please see my exchange with Diana on my talk page for background information. Any comments on what's the best way to handle the wording are welcome. Alex Pankratov 01:13, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Better lead?
Can someone who knows what this article is about write a better lead for this? I think this has something to do with Voice over Internet Protocol, but thats really all I get out of the intro. The first sentence is terrible and tells me nothing useful unless I know something advanced about telecommunications. I understand that this a very specific topic, but I had to click on three wikilinks to begin to understand what this sentence said. Thanks! Wickethewok 03:03, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Link to RFC
The text RFC 5456 is automatically linked to http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5456 which is a 404 error. Can anything be done about this?Alan Bell tolc (talk) 22:27, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Drawbacks?
The drawbacks section is rather curious. It seems to be a listing of past issues in Asterisk that are solved in current releases, but are not related to the IAX protocol itself. The SIP page, for example, contains no listings of past security issues with particular implementations of the SIP protocol, and I don't think it's really germane to the protocol page itself. Is there a good reason for keeping this section? Corydon76 (talk • contribs) 19:59, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

0days
This seems to contradict itself: "There are currently no solutions to these issues" versus "This flaw no longer exists in up-to-date installations of Asterisk or other PBXes". This is confusing. Cmcqueen1975 (talk) 22:03, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
