PRI T1 MGCP or H323 ? When connecting to CCM 3.2.2c

[tringwelski_2]

The PRi is connected to IOS 3640 gateway, I have configured several H323 gateways, with IOS 12.2.11T, the ios seems stable enough to run the PRI, I also have the HDA-FXS/FXO module which is configured via MGCP in the same router. I am running in to registration issues with the PRI, and thinking of resorting back to H323 for this T1.

If you are using BRI, then it is not supported by MGCP still.

But if you are using it as PRI, then I guess it should work.

Check it out.

This works fine either way. I have had success using MGCP to control the PRI. Do you have the PRI configured for backhaul ISDN support? You need to let MGCP configure the ISDN, not the router. Sorry I don't have an example config, but there is a new tech document on CCO that covers this config along with MGCP fall-back. Fallback works fine as well, and you can now have the router pull a TFTP config for the voice functions after it boots.

The document I am refering to addresses troubleshooting for registration problems.
