Dear All,

I was learning VoIP technology, but for implementation,  i still confuse for some following problems :

1. If we have H.323 based network, and we want to combine with the Megaco. How can H.323 accommodate that?

2. What's the advantage of point 1 (combination of Megaco-H.323) compare with H.323 total solution.

3. How is the flow of call set-up from point 1.

4. Can Megaco used as stand alone protocol in the VoIP network, cause we know that Megaco has handset, DTMF, and RTP packages, address translation and routing function that can handle until end user. 

5. If we have Megaco based network, and we want to use SIP as a call set-up protocol, how to combine SIP protocol as part of Megaco. Is that combination will become the specific package or there is another mechanism in MGCP that accommodate that issue?

6. Do you have a comparation between :

  a. Combination H.323 and Megaco

  b. Combination SIP and Megaco

  c. H.323 total solution

Which one is technically the best ?

Your kind explanation on the questions above would be highly appreciated. Your answers are very important for me.

Thank you very much for your cooperation and attention. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards

Bagus.
