Re: H.323/H.245 interworking (H.248.12); RE: H.248 using RFC2833/RFC2198 and SRTP/MIKEY

Hello Tomas,

There's no description on how to map H.245 TCS to H.248 as I think that 
it is commonly assumed that the MGC will receive the H.245 TCS directly 
or tunnelled through the MG (as provided by by H.248.12). The MGC will 
apply what ever logic is required and then issue the appropriate H.248 
commands. There is not necessary a 1:1 mapping of the information.

For example "receiveRTPAudioTelephonyEventCapability" broadly maps into 
H.248 ability to set events to detect tones (e.g. H.248.1  annex E.6) 
and to send signals to initiate tones (e.g. H.248.1 annex E.7). The 
method to indicate these is the same whether text or binary is used. The 
payload type can be specified by H.248.1 annex C.1 "rtppayload".

I do note that there have been a number of additions to H.245 in recent 
years to address additions to SDP. Neither H.248.1 Annex C nor H.248.12 
has been updated specifically for these. So any proposals for 
enhancements are welcome.


Regards, Christian
