My best advice would be "don't do it, it will only cause headaches". It is completely different than * with different terminology, design considerations, etc.

Hello list, Slightly off the list topic, but I hope I'll get some help here. Somebody wants me to implement for his project a Cisco based VoIP system. I told him that I specialize in Asterisk based systems, but he is not even aware of Asterisk. The requirement of project is such that chances are slim that this firm will consider Asterisk based system. So I told him that though not experienced specifically in Cisco, if they hire me I'll setup their VoIP on Cisco system. Now I have no previous experience with Cisco systems and don't want to screw up anything. Are they much different than Asterisk based systems? I guess the underlying VoIP technology is the same for both the systems so it shouldn't be hard to set it up on Cisco. Any ideas, suggestions. I'd appreciate your help as what to look for, where to start from. My experience with Cisco is limited to their networking equipment, IOS, their 7960 series phones and making them work with asterisk, and also using Cisco press's wonderful book 'Taking charge of Your VoIP Project'.
