call actually uses G.729a. If the G.729a resource is already allocated and since only one G.729a resource
is allowed per device, no other low-bit-rate codec may be allocated for subsequent calls; the only choices
are G711a and G711u. On the other hand, two G.723.1/G.726 resources are available per device.
Therefore it is important to disable the use of G.729a in order to guarantee the support of two
simultaneous uses of the G.723/G.726 codecs.
Field Description
