asterisk-oh323 adds H.323 support to the ASTERISK soft PBX. It does this by interfacing the OpenH323 library to ASTERISK through a loadable module. The package provides the channel driver as well as a wrapper in a shared library form. It is able to initiate and receive calls to and from H.323 endpoints, and has been successfully tested with the H.323 terminals on the OpenH323 site (ohphone, openphone), GnomeMeeting, Microsoft NetMeeting, Cisco routers, H.323 Snom phones, and other hardware and software H.323 IP phones.

No changes have been submitted for this release.


Changes: This version includes many stability fixes, automatic gatekeeper re-registration, and correct updating of the DIALSTATUS variable. A new build option enables the generation of a channel driver that has statically linked the OpenH323/Pwlib/oh323wrap libraries.


Changes: This release fixes a bug in the installation of the wrapper library.


Changes: This release fixes the call indications (RINGING, BUSY, etc.) for the H.323 channels. Additionally, it fixes the setup of the OH323 channel variables (such as remote IP address and remote application) for incoming calls, enabling the implementation of user-specific authentication mechanisms.


Changes: The usage of multiple codecs was fixed and a certain codec can be selected on outgoing calls through the dialplan using a special channel variable. An experimental call rate limiter was included, which can improve the stability of the driver under conditions of high call load.
