[Asterisk-Users] seeking H.323 <-> MGCP (User Agent) gateway
Hi all, I am looking for a software package (free or not), or an inexpensive hardware device, which can route calls between an H.323 network and an MGCP-based voice service. Unfortunately, I believe (based on documentation and other forum posts -- I have not looked at the code) that Asterisk can only act as an MGCP Call Agent. Has anyone added code that can talk the 'slave' side of the protocol (act as MG)? Desired functionality could be implemented by connecting an H.323 gateway with FXO ports to an MGCP residential gateway's FXS ports. However, I'd like to avoid the quality degradation of an analog connection (or the expense of a TDM digital connection), and find a solution that can simply route the media streams directly. Only one or two ports are needed per location. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks, Stewart
