[OpenSIPS-Users] Is OpenSIPS a gateway or an application-server?

[Rodrigo Pimenta Carvalho]

Hi.


I was reading about "gateway" (RFC 3960<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3960>) e "application-server" (RFC 3959<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3959>).


In page 4 of RFC 3960 we can see:


"The gateway model is seriously limited in the presence of forking, as described in Section 3.1.  Therefore, its use is only acceptable when the User Agent (UA) cannot distinguish between early and regular media, as described in Section 3.4.  In any other situation (the  majority of UAS), use of the application server model described in Section 4 is strongly recommended instead.)"


So, I ask:


Is OpenSIPS a kind of gateway or an application-server by default? Or this question doesn't make sense here?


Any hint will be very helpful!


Best regards.
