As shown in the diagram, the SIP trunk makes telephone calls over an Internet
connection. The use of SIP trunks does not require modification to your existing
telephony system or Internet connections and does not require PRI hardware or
telephony system upgrades. Only outbound SIP trunks are required; the number of
trunk channels used can be scaled to your needs. For information on capacity
planning, refer to the
EasyCall Gateway Administrator’s Guide
.

The following screens show a sample trunk configuration. The sample configuration
screens are from the Alcatel Omni management interface. The default values required
