H.323 Recommendation published by ITU • Ties together a number of protocols to allow multimedia transmission through an unreliable packet-based network • 1996: approved by ITU • 2003: Version 5 • H.323 Architecture • H.323 Terminal • Gateway • Gatekeeper • Multipoint Control Units (MCU)
H.323 Control Protocols • H.225 (RAS)- protocol between terminal and gatekeeper (if present) allows terminals to join/leave zone, request/return bandwidth, provide status updates, … • H.245 (Call Control) - Media Control Protocol Allows terminals to negotiate connection parameters (codec, bit rate, ..) • Q.931 (Call Signalling) - Manages call setup and termination
