I know
someone that's gotten an Asterisk to talk to a Nortel BCM using H.323, but never
to an M1.
If you want
to connect to an ITG card you'd have to use the H.323 protocol since Nortel is
stuck in the last century. Something like this:
[Asterisk]---H.323-----(VPN tunnel)-----H.323---[ITG card in
M1]
No
guarantees it'll work, and don't count on much support from Nortel - you'll
get none.
I'd
recommend using an Asterisk at both ends and run IAX trunks between them.
Then connect the Asterisk at the M1 end into the PBX via PRI. Like
this:
[Asterisk]---IAX-----(VPN tunnel)-----IAX---[Asterisk]===PRI===[M1
PBX]
Avoid the
ITG like the plague, or you will have a nightmare of a time troubleshooting -
the ITG is a mighty buggy animal, and even Nortel doesn't seem to know how
to make it work properly.
Nortel PBXs
do not do standards-based VoIP well at all. Talk to them using what they do well
- PRI.
You will be
much happier.
Regards,
Jim
