DUNDi works by creating a +network of nodes called the "DUNDi E.164 Trust Group" which are bound by +a common peering agreement known as the General Peering Agreement or +GPA. The GPA legally binds the members of the Trust Group to provide +good-faith accurate information to the other nodes on the network, and +provides standards by which the community can insure the integrity of +the information on the nodes themselves. Unlike ENUM or similar +systems, DUNDi is explicitly designed to preclude any necessity for a +single centralized system which could be a source of fees, regulation, +etc. + +You can find the PEERING agreement in the doc directory. + +Much less dramatically, DUNDi can also be used within a private +enterprise to share a dialplan efficiently between multiple nodes, +without incuring a risk of a single point of failure. In this way, +administrators can locally add extensions which become immediately +available to the other nodes in the system. + +For more information visit http://www.dundi.com |
