[OpenSIPS-Users] Can I use loop back when there is no network link ?

[Jeff Pyle]

Rodrigo,

I've run OpenSIPS on the loopback interface to talk to other SIP-speaking
entities on the same system.  I haven't had any problems.

If your co-workers' project has OpenSIPS and a softphone, with no network
connectivity, who are they going to call?
