[asterisk-biz] SIP vs IAX2 ... looking for advice

Hello to the list. A customer of mine had a lousy time this morning
with his IP PBX because his upstream ITSP provider was DOS'd. In
conversation with the ITSP afterwards, I was told that because the
customer was using IAX2, they were particularly susceptible to service
interruptions of this kind. Essentially, IAX2 was significantly more
fragile "in the wild" than SIP was. If my customer wanted stability and
surety , the answer was migrate away from IAX2 to SIP.

My question to the folks out here "in the wild" is if this statement
and recommendation holds water with what you have all seen in your
experiences. I'm looking for facts and experience as much as possible,
so that I can make the right recommendation for my customer.

Thanks in advance for the help.
