[Etts, Russell]

Thank you Jim 
 
I put everything back to H323 and everything is working now.  I
appreciate all the advice!

Russell,
Check check very carefully what is and is not supported on the MGCP and
2801..
There are some VWIC combo's that require H323 on the 2801 with CCM...

Hi Bill
 
Thank you so much for your answer!  I just want to be clear on this - if
I use H323, I'm not hurting anything, but I get better monitoring with
MGCP.  The reason I'm asking is this:
 
We had an H323 enabled before and everything seemed to be working
properly.  I enabled MGCP and now nothing works - the calls just get
kicked back to the operator at the remote location.  I think this might
be a configuration issue with the remote PBX, but I can't be sure.
 
Thanks
 
Russ

Usually more feature available with H323 (CallerID), but MGCP is managed
via CallManager.  Because CCM manages calls to the MGCP gateway, you get
better monitoring statistics (current # of Calls, channels in use,
etc.).
 
My rule of thumb is, use MGCP when you can, H323 when you have to.

	Hi everyone 

	I'm in the process of setting up a CCM (4.1) and 2801s.  What is
the advantage/ disadvantage between using a trunk between the CCM and
the 2801 (uses MGCP) and a regular H323 gateway?

	Thanks 
	
	Russ
