Has anyone got Packetcable 1.5 or 2.0 MTAs cable modems working with Asterisk or something similar (I'm on Debian/Linux)?
I've currently got Arris TM602G's and TM604G's working in SIP firmware mode with Asterisk 14 and HYBRID.2 provisioning (using snmptrapd / snmpset).
The MGCP drivers in Asterisk seem to have NCS options, but I haven't tried it and I'm not sure what to do with all the Kerberos stuff.
I've never used Kerberos before. I downloaded and compiled the MIT Kerberos server, but now I'm stumped as to what to do next.
Hi,
I suggest you to keep SIP and leave MGCP if you are going to use Asterisk. As far as I know, the MGCP code in Asterisk is quite old and you can hit a bug here and there that will lead you to an unpleasant journey through the source code in order to fix it.
Regarding the Kerberos stuff, you really don't need it unless you want the SECURE provisioning. From the PKTC specs: "The Hybrid Flows are essentially the Secure flow with the Kerberos message exchanges removed, and SNMPv2c substituted for SNMPv3.".
Hope it helps.
Regards,
MS
