Pro MGCP: MGCP signals the PBX for every keypress, allowing the PBX to do quick matching and change dialtones etc. This is more like the classical telephone people expect. In some SIP phones, this is nicely covered, but not in all. Con MGCP: MGCP does not appear to have a widely supported method of authentication other than MAC-address or IP-address based.
