Is there anyone who is currently using Asterisk as a production H323 gateway? And using which combination of asterisk and H323 (chan_h323, chan_oh323?) The main issue is interoperability with other H323 parties (Cisco AS53xx, Nextone, etc). Searching the mailing list it seems that both h323 and oh323 are not so stable, is it only an impression or using h323 is really not so advisable? Francesco Pellegrini pellegrini@frameweb.it
I have setup Asterisk with chan_oh323 to connect to the PSTN over H.323 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Currently I'm using direct connections to the telephone company's (iplan) H.323 gateway, but I'm working on using an intermediate H.323 gatekeeper to take advantage of the telephone company's redundant servers. I think the telco uses Cisco hardware, but I'm not completely sure. We've just started using this, but it seems stable so far.

Juanjo, can you provide some more detail about which version you are using both for asterisk and OpenH323, the hardware dimensioning and the amount of traffic you manage with this solution: how many lines, codecs you use? We should manage a full blown PRI (30 channels), the server is SuperMicro with P4DP8G2 motherboard, dual Xeon 2,8 GHZ, 2 GB RAM and dual SCSI 15K HD in RAID 0. We plan to use G729 codec and a Digium TE110P Card. Any detail will be very useful.... brgds Francesco Pellegrini +--------------------------------+ | Frame Srl | | Via Antonio Cantore 62/10 | | 16149 Genova | | Tel. +39 010 8680570 | | Fax. +39 010 6591413 | | Cell. +348 2237798 | +--------------------------------+ On 10/4/05, Juan Jose Comellas <juanjo at comellas.com.ar> wrote:> I have setup Asterisk with chan_oh323 to connect to the PSTN over H.323in> Buenos Aires, Argentina.
