Details on installing, managing and using the Voice Gateways and the Wireless
Networking Gateway are provided separately in the relevant manuals.
These Gateways incorporate an advanced protocol (DRAP) for automatic
registration and allocation of wireless link resource.
1.4.1 DRAP (Dynamic Resources Allocation
Protocol)
DRAP is a protocol based on IP/UDP between the Gateway (installed behind the
SU) and the BreezeMAX system. The protocol provides an auto-discovery
mechanism for the Gateway, so no specific configuration is required and the
Gateway can automatically locate and register with the BreezeMAX base station.
The protocol uses a few simple messages enabling a Voice Gateway to request
resources when calls are made, and the BreezeMAX to dynamically allocate them.
Using the DRAP solution has the following advantages:
