Networking Cisco AVVID with 3300

[kwbMitel]

I have inquired on this subject before and the response was to use SIP to network these systems together.

Assuming latest software on both and appropriate licensing, has anyone actually done this?

I have looked for How-To docs on Mitel's website without success. Lots of SIP trunking with other systems but not Cisco.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

I'm developing a solution and open to almost anything. (keep it clean)

It works with Cisco 2651 with a voice module and 7200 as IP-IP gateway (VoIP carrier have not allowed trunking with Mitel because it's not certified with them). There is nothing special. NAT traversal is not tested. Actually I had no major problems with Mitel SIP trunking

I just did one with a cisco customer 2 weeks ago. I did not do the cisco but it was working in 15 min.

M1tel,

I also have the option, licenses and NSU to set up PRI with Qsig. I've never gone with SIP and am much more comfortable with PRI programming.

It doesn't seem that very many people have tried the SIP solution.

As a result, I am very much leaning towards the PRI solution due to fact that SIP is still in development.

Thanks for the feedback.

Mitel implemented all major SIP recommendations (RFCs) and known for good interopration with other major manufacturers on SIP market. SIP is about 10 years old technology as it ready for production use. I was working with SIP in 2001, so Mitel has adopted this technology when it became de-facto standard on VoIP market. It is up to you to select the technology, but I'm sort of disagree about SIP being under development The whole VoIP is under development and nobody really wants to invest in ISDN while it's working good enough when the whole market is shifting from channel switching to packet (message) switching.
