Method and System for providing a VoIP-service by making use of a MGCP controlled CPE

摘要

The method involves producing a broadband connection on a communication channel (5) between a media gateway control protocol (MGCP)-controlled access terminal (3) and a network access server (4). Identification information of the access terminal is transmitted to the server during the configuration of the broadband connection. The access terminal is authenticated by evaluating the transmitted identification information by the server. An independent claim is also included for a mechanism for providing a voice over internet protocol (VoIP) service over a media gateway control protocol (MGCP)-controlled access terminal.
