Glossary 
machine, or analog phone attached to a gateway. Examples include 
1000, 24231, and so on. 
DNIS 
Dialed Number Identification Service. 
DNS 
Domain Name System. System used in the Internet for translating 
names of network nodes into addresses. 
DRQ 
Disengage Request. 
DTMF 
Dual tone multifrequency. Use of two simultaneous voice-band tones for 
dialing (such as touch tone). 
Flow 
Stream of data traveling between two endpoints across a network (for 
example, from one LAN station to another). Multiple flows can be 
transmitted on a single circuit. 
Full duplex 
Capability for simultaneous data transmission from both a sending 
station and a receiving station. 
G.711 
Describes the 64-kbps PCM voice coding technique. In G.711, encoded 
voice is already in the correct format for digital voice delivery in the 
PSTN or through PBXs. Described in the ITU-T standard in its G-series 
recommendations. 
G.729 
Describes CELP compression where voice is coded into 8-kbps 
streams. There are two variations of this standard (G.729 and G.729 
Annex A) that differ mainly in computational complexity; both provide 
speech quality similar to 32-kbps ADPCM. Described in the ITU-T 
standard in its G-series recommendations. 
H.225 
An ITU standard that governs H.225 session establishment and 
packetization. H.225 actually describes several different protocols: 
RAS, use of Q.931, and use of RTP. 
H.245 
An ITU standard that governs H.245 endpoint control. 
H.323 
Extension of ITU-T standard H.320 that enables videoconferencing over 
LANs and other packet-switched networks, as well as video over the 
Internet. 
Half Duplex 
Capability for data transmission in only one direction at a time between 
a sending station and a receiving station. BSC is an example of a half-
duplex protocol. 
Hookflash 
Short on-hook period usually generated by a telephone-like device 
during a call to indicate that the telephone is attempting to perform a 
dial-tone recall from a PBX. Hookflash is often used to perform call 
transfer. 
ICCP 
Intra-Cluster Control Protocol 
ISDN 
Integrated Services Digital Network. Communication protocol, offered 
by telephone companies, that permits telephone networks to carry data, 
voice, and other source traffic. 
Jitter 
The variation in the arrival times of voice packets. 
µ-law (“mu-law”) 
Companding technique commonly used in North America. µ-law is 
standardized as a 64-kbps codec in ITU-T G.711. 
MGCP 
Media Gateway Control Protocol. A protocol for Cisco CallManager to 
control VoIP gateways (MGCP endpoints). 
MTP 
Media Termination Point. 
Partition 
A Partition is a logical grouping of Directory Numbers and Route 
Patterns with similar reachability characteristics. For simplicity, these 
are usually named for their characteristic, such as "NYLongDistance", 
"NY911", etc. When a DN or Route Pattern is placed into a certain 
partition, this creates a rule for who can call that device or Route List. 
PBX 
Private Branch Exchange. Digital or analog telephone switchboard 
located on the subscriber premises and used to connect private and 
public telephone networks.
