Hi Mark/David, In CCIE Lab I think we should use h.225 GK Trunk only. Could you please correct me if I am wrong? Thanks, Bala.
Mark Snow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Thanks David - exactly correct. Also keep in mind what is on the other end of the GK or NonGK Trunk. If it is a CCM or a CME - then best in real life to use a ICT (GK or nonGK controlled) as this will provide you with the best integration. If it is a non-Cisco H323 GW - then obviously a H323 if no GK is involved - or if a GK is involved - a H225 GK Trunk. As David said - for the lab - do whatever it says or if it doesn't specify - then use what we outlined above to make your decision.

You might think about implementing a GateKeeper (GK). Gatekeeper is basically a trafiic cop for H.323 gateways. So if you have a Gatekeeper select #1 or #3 below depending on the type of trunk you need to setup. Oerwise select #2 below. David L.
