[Freeswitch-users] MP2

[Michael Jerris]

For any hope to achieve this we are going to needs some more info... preferably in the way of specifications.  It's maybe possible if you can capture the isdn traffic from working equipment using this that you could decode it (Wireshark does a decent job of this) and see what exactly its signaling.
