asterisk users - May 2011 - Asterisk SIP Trunking with Cisco UC 560

Hello,

I'm interested in knowing if anyone out there has successfully connected
Asterisk to a Cisco UC 560 via SIP trunking? We have a client of ours that
we put in an Asterisk install, one of their sister companies who we don't
control is putting in a Cisco UC 560. From my looking I think it can be
done, but the vendor is telling them it can't. Thought I'd ask around
here
and see if anyone has done it? Thanks.

Cheers,

Darrin Henshaw

I see no reason why it can't be done in principle;  the vendor or VAR is 
just being dismissive of open-source, lest the customer suspect they 
might be able to do everything the UC560 can do with open-source 
components without paying for a UC560.

The only sticking point is whether this endpoint, like Cisco Call 
Manager, by default does SDP offer in the 200 OK and answer in the ACK. 
  This is an SDP offer-answer flow prescribed by RFC 3261 as valid but 
not supported by Asterisk, as best as I can tell, even in 1.8.
