[SC.LUG] Port 1765 & CFT

[Andy Roffe]

Geoff,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what CFT is?

These ports are probably used to settle H323 or SIP registration on the 
gateway.
Although, that is really just a guess based on a bit of voip development 
we've been doing recently.
The avaya system is proprietary and all of those "closed" voip systems 
have a nasty habit of
hijacking port numbers to communicate with their own kit.

If you can run ethereal and get a dump of the actual traffic, we can 
probably tell you what it is.

I wouldn't bet on it being rfc compliant (ie: actually cft ) but it may be.

Most commercial voip systems make M$ look postively pleasant about 
vendor lock in.
We just priced a siemens system at over well over 6 figures or 
marginally cheaper than ISDN costs.
I can't think why :o|
