The GNU Gatekeeper (GnuGk) is a full featured H.323 gatekeeper,
available freely under GPL license.
It forms the basis for a free IP telephony system (VOIP).
Please read the manual (especially the tutorial) and the FAQ for general information
what a gatekeeper does or take a look at some
VOIP and H.323 books to get into the subject.

Features
The GNU Gatekeeper is very stable.
It is being used commercially by many organizations to provide VOIP services.
- we provide executables for Linux, Windows, MacOS X, Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD
- can be run as a Windows service
- accounting and call authorization via SQL database, Radius, file or external application
- flexible call routing
- number rewriting (calling and called)
- support for NAT traversal
- full H.323 proxy
- TCP interface to applications
- CTI functions (eg. VOIP call-center, call transfers)
- gatekeeper clustering support (neighbors, parent/child, alternates)
- H.235 security
- graphical user interface
- it's free, including source code
There are also lots of ideas for new features.
Compatibility
The interoperability list shows
a lot of equipment GnuGk has been used with.
In addition to the general settings explained in the manual there are some specific configuration notes
how to configure gateways from some major vendors for use with GnuGk.
