[PVE-User] Spam:**********, KVM vs Container - Why should one use KVM?

[Guy]

All my hardware is outside of the KVM, I use physical boxes to handle the ISDN, PSTN, POTs lines.  They pass the connections in via SIP and IAX into the Asterisk system so timing is less of an issue.

The grand stream gxw4004 are the boxes we use from memory.
