Bug

R. Prabhu,
if this is home work , You have missed FAQ and rules of this site. check them out first.
Simply speaking , pstn networks can use unix "gateways" to transmit voice over I.P.
that is if u have backbone for pstn ready , than this is what happens:
caller A picks up a phone , gets dial tone (from PSTN backbone)
dial a no of reciver B. The gateway server uses TCP /IP , which sends this signal as packet based ,to another Gateway node in IP world , which than looks at this package , decides which destination gateway can handle this package (or telephone no),
forwards it there , than that gateway sends that package to reciver B. and call is completed. As I.P is Packed based ,there is no dedicated connection , that is every one can use same connection . where as in PSTN pure network , one a link is established , it can not be used untill free.
regarding coding , i dont know. But You got to write a code , how to connect to or "dial in" ( i think using cu "tel no" command)to a getway server.
good luck
raju

ISDNTELCTL(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					     ISDNTELCTL(8)

NAME
isdntelctl -- control isdn4bsd telephone sound format conversion SYNOPSIS
isdntelctl [-c] [-g] [-u unit] [-A] [-U] [-N] DESCRIPTION
isdntelctl is part of the isdn4bsd package and is used to configure the sound format conversion facilities of the /dev/isdntel interfaces. The following options are available: -c Clear the telephone input queue. -g Get the sound format currently in use. -u Set the /dev/isdntel unit number. The default value is zero to access device /dev/isdntel0. -A Do A-law (ISDN line) -> mu-law (userland) conversion. -U Do mu-law (ISDN line) -> A-law (userland) conversion. -N Set sound conversion to do no format conversion. The telephony data stream comes out of the line in a bit-reversed format, so the isdntel(4) driver does the bit-reversion process in any case. Additionally, the user can specify to do A-law to mu-law, mu-law to A-law or no conversion at all in the isdntel driver by using the isdntelctl utility. FILES
/dev/isdntel<n> EXAMPLES
The command isdntelctl -g displays the currently used sound format for device /dev/isdntel0. SEE ALSO
isdntel(4), isdnd.rc(5), isdnd(8) STANDARDS
A-law and mu-law are specified in ITU Recommendation G.711. AUTHORS
The isdntelctl utility and this man page were written by Hellmuth Michaelis <hm@kts.org>. BSD
