IP Call Scenarios
Note that in some cases it is possible to enable streaming in one direction significantly earlier than
in the other direction. To take full advantage of this fact, the Global Call IP call control library
initially enables a temporary unidirectional connection, then modifies the connection to be full
duplex as soon as that is possible.
3.1.3.1 H.323 FastStart Mode
The library’s default for H.323 operation enables the Global Call FastStart mode, in which the
channel capability information is embedded in a fastStart element (indicated in the figure as
“FSE”) that can be sent within the messages of the H.225 Setup exchange rather than using the
H.245 messages. (This minimizes the number of round-trip message exchanges and avoids the
latency of H.245 channel establishment.) As a calling endpoint, the Dialogic
®
Global Call API
library enables media after Alerting is received if the called endpoint supports the fastStart mode.
As a called endpoint, the Global Call library enables media in a fastStart connection after the
application calls gc_AcceptCall( ).
If the calling endpoint sets the MediaWaitForConnect element in the Setup message, the Dialogic
®
Global Call API library does not enable media transmission for a called endpoint until the Connect
message is sent.
