asterisk users - Oct 2004 - Asterisk + MGCP + Cisco E1 gateway

Hi....

I have a Cisco 8 port E1 gateway module (x6608) in a Cisco 6509 Chassis. I 
would like if possible to configure Asterisk to use this using MGCP....

Anybody tried this before?

Any sample config?

Hints or tips?

Thanx in advance.

Chris Bradshaw.

I never tried it, but may I understand why you want to use MGCP? 

I use SIP for the both way traffic between my cisco's and Asterisk boxes
which works well. SIP is also much better implemented in Asterisk

IIRC, Cisco E1 PRI MGCP gateways require a separate network socket to 
relay the Q.931 signals from the gw to the call agent. I don't think 
Asterisk can support that.

FYI.
