A method for call processing and link test in a Voice over Internet
Protocol (VoIP) Gateway and system thereof. When a Gateway with
Gatekeeper is operated in manual Registration/Admission/Status (RAS)
mode, the link test is selectively performed depending on the status of
the Gatekeeper according to an access code, whereby traffic of the
Gatekeeper can be dispersed. In addition, when the Gateway with
Gatekeeper is operated in manual RAS mode, depending on the status (i.e.
enable or disable) of the Gatekeeper according to the access code, VoIP
call processing or call routing service is divided into public VoIP
service for charging a VoIP call and local VoIP service with free of
charge. In case there is no routable Gateway during the VoIP call
service, the call is detoured to Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)
network for processing. As a result, service reliability of VoIP network
is greatly improved.
