Paul,
it's good to know that I am not the only person that considers the use of a MAC address as an "alias" as being useful. It therefore strikes me as being somewhat odd that this is not included in the massive amount of options that H.323 already has. Any ideas why this was never included?

Frank,
Yes, I have, and there are very valid cases for doing this.

Today, there are many possibilities for a H.323 User/Terminal to register
with a GK. Many of these
Aliases are an alias for the user. When the MobileUIM structure is used,
it is also possible to specify
an equipment identifier. Has anybody ever given any thought to the
possibility of specifying the MAC
address of Terminal as an Alias?
Regards,
Frank
