COURSE OVERVIEW

The 2-day Media Gateway Control Protocol Training (MGCP) provides in-depth coverage of VoIP and MGCP. MGCP is a protocol used for controlling Voice over IP (VoIP) Gateways from external call control elements. Media Gateway Control Protocol is an emerging protocol that is receiving wide interest from both the voice and data industries. MGCP and Megaco / H.248 are control protocols designed to be used between a Media Gateway Controller (MGC) or call agent and a media gateway (MG).
