About Smartnodes

Patton Smartnodes are used by many in the sipX sipXecs community. While not supported directly by sipX, they offer a feature rich solution as an unmanaged gateway. The primary configuration interface for smartnodes is CLI and the routing core is built upon a very flexible modular structure. Unfortunately, the learning curve for configuring these devices can be quite steep.

This document will provide a basic understanding of the configuration for a typical sipX installation. The following sections will guide you through each step. Rather than cut-and-paste your first configuration, you may find it more beneficial to configure your first device by following the steps below to gain an understanding of how all the pieces connect to make a functional and flexible gateway solution.
