<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>Hi All,<BR><BR> I've been spending the
last month experimenting with Asterisk, and I must say that all results
point<BR>to a very positive outcome. <BR><BR> Now, i've been asked the
following question: Is it possible to put an Asterisk box between 2
Cisco<BR>routers or other SIP complianet equiment, then routing SIP/H.323 calls
between the two routers?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2> Here's a drawing that will
explain:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>The question here is this:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>A phone call is is made to the router in
location A.<BR>The Cisco router routes the call via SIP to the Asterisk Box at
Location B.<BR>According to a set of rules on the Asterisk box, the box would
route the SIP/H.323<BR>to one of the the other Cisco boxes, in order to
terminate the call.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>What do you think, is this
possible?</FONT></DIV>
