[Asterisk-Users] Patton SmartNode

[Guido Hecken]

Actually we 're running the sip protocol but in the past we did also use
h323 in combination with tedas phoneware server (german voip solution). Both
ran on SmartNode side very stable. Caller ID Name with sip/h323 should not
be a problem, but here in Germany I'm not really shure, if the telco (T-COM)
does support this feature on the PSTN side. I guess the SmartNodes should do
the job anyway.
