SIGTRAN. CAMEL, INAP, MAP makes more sense, but in that case you should only

<br>
<br>
That is unless you plan an integrated SRP solution.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
For Asterisk I would consider M2UA because that allows an Asterisk to benefit
from the redundancy and failover in M2UA + you could stack a SS7 that run's
over several boxes - thought the value is a bit limited.<br>
<br>
<br>
What do you use for SCCP, TCAP and CAMEL/MAP?<br>

<br>
Most interesting article.<br>
<br>
SCCP over M3UA is straight forward, but how would you do ISUP?<br>
<br>
What I mean is that ISUP contains reference to CIC's and basically is an
instruction to connect a voice channel - but what will you use to actually
connect to the voice channel ? Asterisk acting as an AS can be on a different box
than the SG, meaning that if you run a proper SG you will need to connect the
voice out from that box as well.<br>
<br>
Are you using the LGPL M3UA stack?<br>
