VCM Usage 3
- Thread starter AJ22
- Start date
both sides need to have direct media enabled for it to drop the VCM channel(s)
it will still need a VCM channel to establish the connnection

If both sides use the same codec but not direct media the connection will be 'RTP relay'. As far as I understand that IPO just forwards the packets but has no real work with that process like converting from one codec to another.
SSA will tell you how many VCM channels are used but I see a chance that VCM is only used to initiate the connection.

I can tell you that with a SIP trunk and H323 phones you do not need a VCM.
Once I replaced an IPO500 server, and forgot to swap the VCM module.
The customer was already making phone calls, when I discoverd that voicemail did not work.
Then I found out that I forgot about the VCM module..

Thanks Okkie
I remember that you cannot even start a call is you have no VCM channels but apparently that has changed somewhere in the releases.
