We noticed that too. Which brings up the question: do the phones only do SIP or do they also do SCCP (Skinny) and other VoIP protocols? We use Asterisk in a lot of places but our main call control is via a set of Vocal Data servers (now owned by Tekelec).
I'm sure that Cisco is supporting Asterisk to the point that they support the SIP standard. But really Asterisk development is so much faster than Cisco's that Asterisk has already adapted to use most of Cisco's hardware. I wouldn't look to Cisco to adapt to Asterisk. :-) Jon Carnes FeatureTel On Fri, 2005-10-07 at 13:45, BJ Weschke wrote: > The phone has a look alot more like the 79XX series phones from Cisco > than the old SPA-841 which I think is going to go a long way towards > gaining a greater acceptance in the business markets. > > On 10/7/05, Garrett Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > We did extensive testing with the unit and our Asterisk server > and it took about 5 minutes to configure; extremely similar to > the 841.
