To investigate the interoperability of H.323 and B-ISDN signalling environments with a view to identifying possible standardization activities in this area is the purpose of this Technical Report. The following aspects of interoperability are investigated: connection of remote H.323 environments via B-ISDN; interworking of H.323 and B-ISDN environments, both separated and combined, via a gateway; use of H.323 annex C (H.323 on ATM), including the co-existence of H.323 annex C and B-ISDN signalling in the same network and possible future enhancement of annex C; application of the B-ISDN separated call control protocol to gatekeeper-to-gatekeeper communication and the impact of H.323 on future mobility protocols.
