RE: how to hook up an IP phone

Correct. You need to have a CallManager somewhere that the IP Phones
can register with. You would use an FXS port to hook up a plain ol'
analog telephone, and an FXO port to hook into either the PSTN or an
analog PBX coonection.

The IP Phones themselves will plug into the Ethernet network behind your
router. You will need to have either the CallManager or another device
handing out DHCP addresses that the phones will utilize to come on-line.

Any other questions on this, ask me off-list and I'll be happy to help.
IP Phones and CallManager probably aren't a topic yet on the CCIE lab.

Probably. :-)

I may be wrong but I don't think IP phones would come up without the
presence of a MCS (Media Convergence Server) because the MCS deals with
the initial connection of call throughout skinny and then it's all RTP
from there, but as I said that's my vague knowledge. Would some one care
to enlighten us here?
