I understand that this can be considered advertisement on the forum, but
does ACME, Sonus and Genband SBC support ICE or ICE lite? As far as I know
they do not. If I am wrong and they do, how long did they have this support?
If they do not, does anybody know what their plans are?

Sorry for such direct line of questioning, but dealing with SIP trunk
providers in US, you interface to an SBC from one of those vendors. So, if
these vendors support ICE, most of the SIP trunk providers would be able to
support ICE.

Even with this covered, we still have an issue of supporting ICE by PBXs and
IP Phones. As far as I know (and my information can be outdated), Polycom
and Cisco phones do not support ICE. I am not sure about the others, but
from what I've generally seen hardware phones in vast majority do not
support ICE.

Please correct me if I am wrong about any of this. I am mostly trying to
determine the level of current market support for ICE.
