[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk as H323 client?

[ygroups at exemail.com.au]

Greetings,

I have a VoIP provider that uses H323. Basically they provide a
proprietary win32 client for you to login with a username and password.
I've ran ethereal through it and have sort of figured out how it works,
but I know very little about H323.

What I want to do is, to have asterisk register as a H323 client to that
service and integrate it into my least-cost routing plan to use with my
sipura. I have the gatekeeper and login details and can login using
hphone, but haven't been able to place calls.

My question is: How do I get asterisk to register as a H323 client? (I've
tried google, and found too little to be useful. I've also had some people
say it won't work and some say it will).

If it's not possible to reg as client, can I set up asterisk as a gateway
to interact with their gatekeeper (I know very little about 323).

Thanks!

Jason.

PS (Pardon any grammatical incoherencies - been up all night trying to
figure it out. :-( )
