Hello Richard,

you would do this like the following in the dialplan:
      <action application="set" data="PEER_IP=200.100.200.100"/>
      <action application="bridge" data="h323/012345678@${PEER_IP}"/>

The PEER_IP is the remote Server you would like to place a call to. Thus with every dialplan you can call a different h323 server.

With inbound H323 from an external server, you can just route by destination_number. I am not sure, but I think you will have to have the external H.323 server IP in you domains section of the acl.conf.xml. We also had to rewrite some number fields, but this can be a problem of the other side of the line.

We use H.323 with Freeswitch this since more than 2 years in a productive environment with lots of traffic. It's just running like a charm. We only had problemes on the opposite part of the line (a legacy PBX).

Best regards
Peter

Peter,

Thanks for your reply.
Basically, what I am trying to achieve is to connect FreeSWITCH to an existing PBX that has H323 connectivitiy. It is a traditional PBX with ISDN trunks and H323 (for it's VoIP end points).
I am trying to expand it by adding FreeSWITCH to it, so that extensions on both systems will be able to call each other, and I am now at the early stages of working out how each of the systems should be configured, that is, do I need to specifically tell FreeSWITCH the IP address of the H323 card in the traditional PBX? 

Thanks for your time

Richard

This is the Freeswitch IP for the mod_h323 module (e.g. if the Freeswitch machine has multiple IPs).

This parameter is very useful, if you want to run e.g. the Freeswitch as an SBC(resp. h323/SIP Gateway) with the H323 leg in one network and the SIP leg in another network.

Best regards

Hi,

Within the h323.config.xml file there is an entry for:
<listeners>
   <listener name="default">
     <param name="h323-ip" value="$${local_ip_v4}"/>
     <param name="h323-port" value="1720"/>
   </listener>
 </listeners>

is the "h323-ip" value the IP address of the H323 server?

Richard
