asterisk users - Mar 2004 - Codec between * servers

I was wondering if there is any information on how to select which codec
is best to use between two * server.  The local IP phones use G.711 to connect
to the local server.  I usually find that using a low end codec like GSM
between servers will degrade the voice a lot, same with iLBC.  Does anyone
have any recommedation?

If you are using IAX between the servers, you can simply add a codec line to
the iax.conf file to provide the specific codecs you want to use in the
order you want to use them.  Here's a sample

disallow=all
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw

If you want GSM as a fall back, tack on:

allow=gsm

The situation for SIP is pretty much the same.  Google:
