Asterisk doesn't have G.723 due to some licensing issues. G.729 is available
for Asterisk, but is supplied separately and subject to a licence fee.

I believe G.726 can be used between Grandstream and Asterisk, but haven't
yet tried it.

Grandstream will soon be releasing firmware that supports ILBC.

(Anyone seen it yet? 1.0.4.55 doesn't appear to have it)

Cheers,
