Abstract

   This document defines the protocol used between elements of a
   physically decomposed multimedia gateway, i.e. a Media Gateway and a
   Media Gateway Controller.  The document is common text with ITU-T
   Recommendation H.248 and is a result of applying the changes in RFC
   2886 to the text of RFC 2885.

   The protocol presented in this document meets the requirements for a
   media gateway control protocol as presented in RFC 2805.
