I'm out of my element here, but its my *impression* that it can come to a decision whether the gw must terminate the media or not. If it can use out of band dtmf on the sip side, and map it to H.245 on the other side, then it may be able to avoid terminating the media, which could save resources for other purposes.

Is it the gateway is doing DTMF -> H.245 mapping, or is it just for doing compressed codec transport?

I know next to nothing about H.323. My understanding is that it thinks DTMF must travel in the signaling path for H.323, and I gather that means using H.245.

    I think I have heard that SIP-H.323 GWs fall into this category.

    (As well as gateways to some other more proprietary protocols that shall
    remain unnamed here.)
