Examples are given in best faith – ensure that you check the capabilities of systems before
deploying them, especially the functionality of devices not designed and delivered by VegaStream.
•
Consider VPN between sites as this:
- removes any issues with firewalls / NAT
- encrypts audio and management data
• Vega gateways use the ECMA 333 standard for tunnelling QSIG
User experience
• There is no change to the existing user experience. The information provided between
PBXs is identical, so the PBXs see no change at all.
•
The user experience is defined only by the PBX capabilities.
USPs
•
QSIG signalling and QSIG-like signalling are supported by the Vega
Considerations
• Point-to-point trunking

rather than fully meshed
2
connection of Vega gateways may be
needed if:
- the protocol is QSIG-like and not fully QSIG compatible (some manufacturers use QSIG
as a basis for their inter-PBX connectivity, but retain certain proprietary elements)
- PBXs send calls for specific destination PBXs to specific trunks
• QSIG from different manufacturers may have proprietary elements. If QSIG PBXs would
not talk together when connected with a leased line, they will not operate together when
connected using VegaStream QSIG tunnelling.

‘point-to-point trunking’ means that all calls on a specific Vega trunk will be routed to a specific destination trunk on a specific
destination Vega gateway
2
‘fully meshed’ indicates that on a call by call basis the Vega gateway can select the appropriate IP endpoint to send the QSIG
data to.
