Cisco VGD 1T3 Voice Gateway Software Configuration Guide
MGCP uses endpoints and connections to construct a call. Endpoints are sources of or destinations for
data and can be physical or logical locations identifying a device. The voice ports on the Cisco MGCP
gateway are its endpoints. Connections can be point-to-point or multipoint. Cisco Unified
Communications Manager acts as the MGCP call agent, managing connections between endpoints and
controlling how the Cisco IOS gateway functions.
Figure 1
shows a typical MGCP gateway that is controlled by an MGCP call agent.

The MGCP gateway receives most of its required configuration from the call agent. To configure an
MGCP gateway, you simply identify the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server associated with
the gateway and identify the gateway to the call agent. The MGCP gateway handles the translation
between voice signals and the packet network and interacts with the Cisco Unified Communications
Manager server. The server performs signal and call processing.
