SG16 members,

I have been reading the Proposed Recommendation H.341 (December 1998)and have now some questions.

1) I want to specify a PRI-interface to PSTN in the Gateway. Which MIB's or part of MIB' do I use ? Could or should the H.320 MIB (or parts of) be used in any way (together with the H.320 parts in the H.323 Gateway MIB) ? or should only the PSTN parts of the H.323 Gateway MIB be used ? or is the PRI part not covered in the H.341 ?

2) How do I specify the "real" PRI-interface e.g. channels ? is the intension of H.341 to be used with other MIB's, e.g. RFC2127 and RFC2495 to specify the "real" PRI interface ?

3) In the H.323 Gateway MIB there is a H323GwCapabilitiesH320Table. This table contain an attribut called H323GwCapabilitiesH320CapsTableIndex which point out an table in the H.320 Entity MIB. What is the relation between these tables ? Do you have one row of the H323GwCapabilitiesH320Table and only one row in the H320CapsTable or can you have many rows of the H323GwCapabilitiesH320Table, each pointing to a unique row in the H320CapsTable or ? The text describing the H320CapsTable says that "The number of rows will be equal to the number of H320 entities in the MCU and the H320/H323 Gateway". The relation between these tables are not clear to me.

4) Chapter 6.2 H.323 Systems. The text says "In an H.320/H.323 gateway, both the H.320 Entity and Terminal MIBs are required". The text in chapter 8.2 H.320 indicate something else, i.e. that only the H.320 Entity MIB is required. Is that a correct interpretation ?

5) I am missing some kind of Entity Relation or object model of each entity. e.g the Gateway. Something that describes the relation between the MIBs and tables (e.g. ports, cennections and calls). Do the SG16 have the intenstion to add something like that to the Recommendation ?
