Reid,<br>
We were early adopters of the Motorola Vanguard VoIP solution, and
were dismayed when the product line faded. Quite frankly, I can't
imagine why you'd want to integrate the two solutions. To my memory,
Motorola offered only H.323 support, no SIP or IAX. Further, the
codecs are probably not supported by *. <br>
As I write this, I'm trying to imagine what you have in mind.
Bring FXO's and FXS's into the Motorola and .....convert the traffic to
H.323 to talk to Asterisk? To do what that the Motorola can't do
natively? <br>
Really, I think you'd never be happy with the solution. We're
moving from the Motorola gear to * for the more advanced features, and
improved codecs.. and to combine everything the Motorolas did into one
box. <br>
You could pick up an Adtran 750 on ebay, and buy a T1 card from
Digium and you're in business.... and don't have to mess with the
codecs and all that...<br>

style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Has anyone
had any luck using Vanguard
routers with Asterisk? We’re considering using Motorola / Vanguard
6560’s
with FXO and FXS cards with Asterisk for a (very small) office phone
system. I’m
completely new to Asterisk, so I’m afraid I can’t get any more
specific than that. We just happen to have access to some of this
equipment and
thought it might be a good alternative to buying other hardware.</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" color="navy" face="Arial"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Looking
through Vanguard’s
documentation, it looks like the 6560 will support H.323 with a
gatekeeper.
Does this sound like something worth pursuing?</span></font></p>
