Basic SRST Configuration on MGCP Gateway

This is the first blog entry of a series of SRST configuration samples that I'm planning.  Within this series, I will discuss many of the most popular SRST features and illustrate them with useful sample configurations.

Part 1: Basic SRST Configuration
Part 2: SRST Configuration:  IP Phone Clock, Date, and Time Formats
Part 3: SRST Configuration:  IP Phone Language Display
Part 4: SRST Configuration:  IP Phone Customized System Messages
Part 5: SRST Configuration:  Secondary Dial-Tone
Part 6: SRST Configuration:  Dual and Octo Line Phones


Often, I know that I just need to review a sample config quickly to jar my memory.  So, here is an SRST configuration on an MGCP gateway.  Please note that the "service" command config is valid for IOS 12.3(14)t or later.

I've highlighted in yellow the configurations that are specific to SRST.  Check out the full SRST admin guide for many more options and details related to SRST ( it's 280 pages of pure unadulterated SRST fun).
