Hi List,

I noticed someone in this list asked how many G.729 codec license he should purchase 
for his Asterisk box. I am new to VoIP and Asterisk. Why do we need to buy codec 
licenses for th Asterisk? I thought codecs are built into the SIP phones. If a call is 
made from one SIP phone to another SIP phone, shouldn't the codecs inside those two 
phones take care of things. The only situation I can think of needing codec license is 
when a call is make from a SIP phone through Asterisk to the PSTN network. In that 
case the Asterisk box wil handle the codec functions. Am I correct?

Also, if I need to buy the G.729 license who and where can I buy them?

Thanks.

Oliver Shaw
