1.2 H.248 Protocol Introduction
Mc Interface Introduction
 Media Gateway Control (MGC)：
 Responsible for maintaining the connecting and controlling status of media
channel in MGW.
 Media Gateway (MGW)：
 Responsible for media streams exchanging and format-converting. For
example, MGW convert the messages format transmitted in TDM bearer to
other formats which can be transmitted in IP network.
MSC Server GMSC Server
(MSOFTX3000) (MSOFTX3000)  Mc interface is a new
interface determined in
Nc
3GPP R4, which is a
standard interface between
MSC Server (or GMSC Server)
Mc Mc and MGW.
 ATM or IP is provided in
Nb
physical connection on Mc
MGW interface
MGW
Mc Interface Function
 The Mc interface provides the capabilities of the static and dynamic
resources for the MSC Server (GMSC Server) controlling the various
transmission modes (IP/ATM/TDM) in the MGW in the call processing
procedure, such as terminal property, terminal connection switching
relationship, MGW borne media streams.
 The Mc interface also provides the call independent MGW status

maintenance and management capability.

1.2 H.248 Protocol Introduction
H.248 Protocol Introduction
 H.248/MEGACO has been jointly developed within the ITU-T and the
IETF. It is named H.248 by the ITU-T and MEGACO by the IETF.
 H.248 is a kind of Media Gateway Control Protocol, in separated

Gateway model of Soft Switch Network, H.248 protocol is used for
the communication between a media gateway controller (MGC) and a
media gateway (MGW), implementing the function of the MGC
controlling MGWs.
 As one of the application layer protocols in OSI, H.248 protocol

supported by three kinds of transport protocol (UDP, SCTP, MTP3B),
and only SCTP and MTP3B used in Mobile Network.
H.248 Protocol Application
 As one of Media Gateway Control Protocols, the H.248
protocol is applied on the Mc interface in UMTS core network.

H.248 Protocol Stack
 H.248 protocol is one of application layer protocol, which can be transported
on IP (as shown in Figure a) or ATM (as shown in Figure b). At present we
usually use IP to transport H.248 protocol.

H.248 Code Format
 In H.248 protocol, one information unit is called a message,
which is coded by binary format or text format.
 MGC must support both formats, while MGW support either

one. All H.248 messages have same structure.
Questions
 What is Mc interface? and which protocol is applied on
Mc interface?
 How many kinds of code format are used in H.248

protocol?
Summary
 We have introduced some concepts and related protocols
about Mc interface data configuration.

configuration in MSOFTX3000.
Steps Commands
1．Configure information about MGW ADD MGW
2．Configure the SCTP association from MGC to MGW ADD H248LNK
3．Modify SCTP association parameters (optional) SET SCTPPARA
