TDMoE is just a method of taking the 8000Hz, 8-bit ulaw/alaw audio from a TDM interface and stuffing them into raw ethernet frames. The destination MAC must obviously be on the same ethernet network. Different segments are fine since any competent switch will be able to get the frames to their destination. In a nutshell. Take a raw ethernet frame. You have the ethernet header and the payload. Take the destination MAC and put it in the header, and take the TDM data and put it in the payload. There may be a little more in the payload (timestamps I would suspect). Send it out to the card. That's it. -A. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
