Yate is a telephony engine who's main function is to connect together call legs to external devices or to internal server resources.

It uses a variety of VoIP protocols(as SIP, H.323, IAX2 or Jingle) that can be used without the need of special hardware.

In the next chapters you will find more informations about configuring each telephony protocol and the features supported by Yate.
