Abstract: Megaco is a device control protocol defining a general framework for physically decomposed media gateway, where the intelligence of the gateway is in a master node called the media gateway controller, and the actual switching and media transfer is performed in one or more slave nodes called the media gateway(s). In order to enable transfer of group-related information from the media gateway controller to the media gateway, a group termination for the group-related information is created in the media gateway. The group termination is non-member-specific and associated with the group, and the media streams to the group are directed to the group termination.

Abstract: Megaco is a device control protocol defining a general framework for physically decomposed media gateway, where the intelligence of the gateway is in a master node called the media gateway controller and the actual switching and media transfer is performed in one or more slave nodes called the media gateway(s). In order to enable to transfer user-related information from the media gateway controller to the media gateway a user termination for the user's user-related information is created in the media gateway, the user termination being non-call-specific and associated with the user; and the media streams to and from the user are directed via the user termination.
