Toolpack version 2.5
New Features
Toolpack version 2.5 provides the following new features:
Support for Media Leg API
This release of Toolpack allows the use of the media resources (TDM channels, RTP streams), without having to use the signaling stacks provided by TelcoBridges. This allows customers to use their own SIP stack, and use the high-performance RTP and vocoding from TelcoBridges. The same can be done with SS7 and Sigtran on the TDM network. The Media Leg API can be used in conjunction with the Call Leg API, thus having a hybrid system.
Support for H.248
This allows the Tmedia platform to be controlled by a SoftSwitch
Support for CAS R2 in Toolpack
This adds a new signalling protocol to Toolpack. CAS R2 in Toolpack works on all TelcoBridges platforms which have IVR DSP devices. This makes a complete TDM offering with SS7, Sigtran and ISDN-PRI.

Toolpack version 2.5 also improve usability and ease-of-use by adding the following enhancements:
Web Portal Host-control
