A softswitch combines two elements: a call agent or

call feature server for call control, routing and

signalling, and a media gateway or access gateway for

processing media streams. These two elements can

be co-located on a single piece of hardware, or

located on separate hardware where one call agent or

call feature server can control one or more gateways.
