Re: Megaco support for RFC 2833

Hello Raphael,

To my knowledge nothing has been defined that allows volume control 
associated with the tones packages in H.248.1 Annex E. The closest work 
would be in H.248.9 and H.248.7 which allows volume control of 
announcements. Also H.248.19 allows volume control in mixing.

Is there an interest on the Megaco list to have a volume parameter 
associated with tones?

Regards, Christian

Re: Error in H.248.9 Amd. 1; RE: Conflicting parameterID and ABNF token

Just as a follow up. I checked and there's already guidance in H.248.1 
section 12.2:

12.2 Guidelines to defining parameters to events and signals
Parameter Name: only descriptive
ParameterID: is an identifier. The textual ParameterID of parameters to 
events and signals shall not start with "EPA" and "SPA", respectively. 
The textual ParameterID shall also not be "ST", "Stream", "SY", 
"SignalType", "DR", "Duration", "NC", "NotifyCompletion", "KA", 
"KeepActive", "EB", "Embed", "DM", "DigitMap", "SPADI", "SPADirection", 
"SPARQ" or "SPARequestID".

Cheers, Christian

RE: Reg Property and Event IDs of H323 Bearer Control Pkg which extends H245 Package

Hi,

 

Does any body have any idea about how to proceed about in the case of the H323 BCP Package since the property/event IDs of properties/events in that package overlap with those of H245 Package which it extends?

 

Like in the case of most other extended packages, is it ok to proceed with the H323 BCP Package by assigning the properties and events IDs consecutively after the IDs of the base package?

 

Thanks and Regards,

Arvind

Subject: Reg Property and Event IDs of H323 Bearer Control Pkg which extends H245 Package

 

Hi,

 

The specification for the H323 Bearer Control Package indicates that it extends H245 Package version 1. But the property IDs and the Event IDs are overlapping for the packages. Shouldn’t the property and event IDs of the H323 Bearer Control Package be continuation of that of the Base H245 Package?

 

Can anybody throw some light on this issue?

 

Thanks and Regards,

Arvind

Emergency property

Hi All,
 
Can somebody explain what is the meaning of sending ADD command to  a physical termination into a context with the emergency attribute set ?
 
Does it mean that this ADD command should be treated before others or something else ?
 
Does anybody implement/use  this ?
 
Thanks,
Tamar

context creation failure: correct reply structure

Hello,

sorry for the basic question, but I could not find the answer in the
RFC or in the list archives.
I'd need some help in understanding the correct behaviour of the MGW
whenever it is unable to create a new context.

Suppose that the MGC requests creation of a new context with
an addRequest with contextID=CHOOSE, and the MGW is unable to
satisfy the request,

at which level should the MGW put the error descriptor in the reply?
If at the command or action level, which ContextID should be written
in the reply?

Thank you for your help,

Claudio Fontana

RE: context creation failure: correct reply structure

Hi,

It depends on in which level the error has occurred.

If the error occurred while processing the commands then MGW should
indicate the error descriptor in the command level. If the MGW is not
able process the context ID or other context related attributes MGW
should indicated the error in the action level.

Regarding the context Id to use,
If the context has no terminations left then it means no resources are
reserved and the controller need not subtract any thing later. So the
context ID received (in this case CHOOSE) can be used.

Regards
Krishna

Mapping of SIP with megaco

Hi All,
Is there a document/standard which maps the megaco happenings with the related SIP messages,
for a complete registartion and basic call??
 
orig side digits received context created -------- INVITE sent ----------> INVITE received ---------> context created ringing
                                                                                                                                    &nb sp;            |
       SG{cg/rt} ringback tone modify<---------------180 received    -----      180 ringing <--------------------------
 
Some staright forward cases that are not clear
1) When the modify has to happen for providing ringing / ringback tone in case of PRACK scenario ??
should this be PRACK and its 200 OK ???
 
2) When is modify the RTP be open for speech be done - 200 OK sending or reception of ACK ???
 
3) How to handle re-answer scenario (called party onhook and offhook) - just a internal treatment of timer
and then a BYE - or some SIP inbetween?
 
4) SDP negotiations ???????????????????????????????
 
Please let me know some standard for SIP-Megaco interworking and let me also know your opinion.
 
Thanks & Best Regards,
Gopalarathnam.
