> Abstract:
> MEGACO defines the protocols used between elements of a physically
> decomposed multimedia gateway.  There are no functional differences from
> a system view between a decomposed gateway, with distributed sub-
> components potentially on more than one physical device, and a monol-
> ithic gateway such as described in H.246. This document does not define
> how gateways, multipoint control units or integrated voice response
> units (IVRs) work.  Instead it creates a general framework that is suit-
> able for these applications.
>
> Packet network interfaces may include IP, ATM or possibly others.  The
> interfaces will support a variety of SCN signalling systems, including
> tone signalling, ISDN, ISUP, QSIG, and GSM. National variants of these
> signalling systems will be supported where applicable.
>
> The protocol definition in this document is common text with ITU Recom-
> mendation H.248.
