A dials C digits + SEND, normal call setup

A & C voice stream set up by MSC / Media Gateway / BSC


over EVRC
A presses SEND to bring B back

The MSC cannot handle more than 2 ports in a call. Therefore it


takes down A-B and A-C voice streams and passes control
to the Call Conferencing Server. The logical facility manager (LFM)
INVITE A, call ID = 1
in the MSC sends SIP INVITE messages to the Call Conferencing
Server to conference A, B and C together.

The Call Conferencing Server acts as a bridge and uses RTP to stream and
mix voice between A, B, and C by communicating directly with
the Media Gateway and BSC(s). INVITE C, call ID = 1
