[OSL | CCIE_Voice] OFF TOPIC: Avaya ACS integration.
To All, I apologize for distracting you from your studying. I'm looking for some input from anyone with Avaya ACS experience. I'm trying to provide CME to Avaya Partner ACS integration while we migrate to CME. I currently have VIC-4FXO and VIC2-FXO connected to extension ports on the avaya. I'm able to call to the PSTN without issue, but can not dial internal two digit extensions. As I understand it , the user must press the intercom button prior to dialing an internal extension. A quick look at the avaya documentation indicates the system supports single-line pots phones and should be able to dial internal extensions by using a switch hook signal before dialing. I'm trying to figure out if this switch hook support needs to be enabled and also if enabling the flash button in CME would be the same as a switch hook to the avaya. Any ideas or opinions are greatly appreciated. ___ Free CCIE RS, Collaboration, Data Center, Wireless Security Videos :: iPexpert on YouTube: www.youtube.com/ipexpertinc
[OSL | CCIE_Voice] CUE voiceview authentication headache :)
Hi group, I have my CUE configured with CUCM. I can call into CUE voicemail and check messages, so I know my PIN is good. I've subscribed my phone to the voiceview service and can get the authentication url to show on the phone. I login in with username scphX (thats the username) and the pin, but I get login failed everytime. Can anyone help me understand where the voiceview app is referencing for authentication? Does it change if the CUE module it integrated to CME or CUCM ?

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Question regarding dialing NATIONAL calls outside the U.S.
Hi All, It's probably a silly question, but it's some I struggle with more often than I like. Can some clarify for me how a LOCAL and NATIONAL call generally need to be dialed / presented outside the U.S. In all the practice labs I've done, dialing international is usually straight forward - something like 90014085551212. But my head spins when trying to understand what is a national call verus a local call. Lets say I have a International e164 phone number at +743 2202 4xxx at my Site C location. Is a local number anything in the format? What would a National number in this example ? It seems to me anything other than , would be a International call. So I don't see where National fits in. Also , when I see a number like XX on the PSTN phone, is that automatically a International call ? - Lab Rat ___ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com Are you a CCNP or CCIE and looking for a job?

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] MVA -Your call can not be completed as dialed
Actually, the MVA Prompt was working. I believe the issue was a owner/device mismatch actually. I did try to adjust the re-route CSS but it didn't change the behavior. I actually deleted the user (which surprising wipes all the remote destination info for the user also) and recreated it. It's all working as expected now. Thanks for the clarification regarding Re-routing CSS. I didn't think it would apply here.

Therefore, you've to check if the number you're dialing is in a route pattern that the configured CSS in the remote destination profile can reach.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] UCCX and transcoding
So if that is the case, I guess it makes sense that the RP would need to be in the HQ device pool , to force the call to g.729 based on the GW being in the SiteB region and the RP being in the HQ region. I will test that today. Strange thing is if I call the RP from a phone in SiteB , the codec gets set properly.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] UCCX and transcoding
As I spend more time thinking about this, I think I'm complicating the whole scenario. As you mention, the RP is simply forwarding the call to a CTI Port. The only time a transcoder would have to be invoked is for the aef script when playing prompts. Otherwise the handoff to an agent would follow the normal regions/codec rules.

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] WAN qos question
I ran into a problem the other day that has me confused. I ran auto qos on the hq side, changed values as needed and pasted the modified policy in the hq router. I then took the same policy and pasted it into the SB router config and bound it to the dlci. All seemed to be ok until I tried to get phones registered. I could get a dhcp address but never register. I knew something with the WAN qos was screwed up. I've done it to myself in practice and in the real lab. It turns out that I didn't have frts on the physical interface. Once I put it on, everything started working. My questions are: 1.) I thought IOS would refuse attaching a class to a dlci without frts on the physical interface. 2.) Without frts configured on the physical interface, wouldn't the class assignment on the dlci (384k) effectively be ignored? I know what the config problem was, but I understand what it was actually causing to happen at the Pvc level. ___ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com Are you a CCNP or CCIE and looking for a job?

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] WAN QOS Strategy Question.
Hey everyone, I can confirm after A LOT of testing, if you are given a QOS requirement for only one of the two Frame PVCs, and you use Auto QOS, you will have a problem. Auto QOS will automatically config Frame-relay Traffic shaping on the physical WAN interface and then configure the PVC you are QOS'ing to the bandwidth that is noted under the sub interface. The other sub interface gets left with the default frame-relay traffic shaping behavior which is to drop CIR to 56k on the PVC. Do a Show Frame PVC dlci# on both PVC's after running auto qos. I think this could be an intended Rat hole on the exam. If you only have to configure Hq-SB QOS and you don't know much more the to run autoqos and tweak a couple parameters, your SC communications will start to fail with a PVC CIR of 56k.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] WAN QOS Strategy Question.
Thanks for clarifying this Vik. I wasn't aware of the crtp one way audio trap. But I'll keep it in mind. One question : I thought we could avoid having the frame relay traffic shaping on the physical interface if we did generic traffic shaping via class-map within the frame-relay map-class. Is this not the case? I vaguely remember what you are talking about where I wasn't able to apply a class to a DLCI and it prompted a message asking for traffic shaping to be enabled. Just wondering if there is work around or is it a hard and fast rule that Frame traffic shaping MUST be on the physical interface. On Sat, Dec 3, 2011 at 4:15 PM, Vik Malhi vma...@ipexpert.com wrote: This is correct. It's not AutoQoS that causes the problem- its because you MUST have FRTS enabled in order for the map-class to be attached to the DLCI. And this must happen since the service policy is inside the map-class. I recommend you run AutoQoS on all routers when doing WAN QoS or at the very least attach a map-class to all DLCI's. Also be careful if you are using cRTP. You should ensure that if you are using cRTP that both ends of the pipe are configured with cRTP otherwise you will experience one way audio.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Need some help with GK/CUBE Remote Zone call debugging.
Hi Ash, Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. I would really like to understand all the pieces to this scenario. The debug I posted was from the HQ router/GK/CUBE, I'm not sure how to read it yet, so I can't say what call leg it represents. We are talking about the same scenario you mention in your reply. CUCM via GK-0Trunk (No MTP configured) (Wait for H245 unchecked) GK configured with a Remote Zone using a outvia to local CUBE. CUBE is configured with One inbound dial-peer 011! with a fixed codec of g.711 and an outbound dial-peer targeting RAS (default g.729) The call setup works and I can answer the call but the rtp never works. Please confirm my understanding of the problem. 1.) CUCM does ARQ/setup via GK 2.) GK sends LRQ to BBGK and gets LCF that it's a routable DN 3.) GK tells CUCM to target CUBE for H.323 call setup because of Outvia config for BBGK Zone. 4.) CUCM sends H.225 to CUBE which triggers CUBE to do H.225 to endpoint in BBGK Zone. 5.) CUBE waits for h.245 TCS and doesn't send H.225 connect back to CUCM 6.) BBGK Endpoint doesn't send any TCS and causes CUBE to wait /timeout for H.245 7.) Call fails with CUBE disconnecting both BBGK call leg and CUCM call leg. I think this is due to the fact that CUCM (without MTP) is forced to do slow start , while CUBE will automatically do fast start. As I understand , CUBE can't compensate for the difference between slow/fast start call legs. So is the only option to have an MTP configured at CUCM side? Can the CUBE be forced to do slow start? Would that fix the issue?

On the CUBE you have inbound dial-peer with codec G711 and outbound dial-peer with G729 and then you have transcoder to fix this in the cube , but on the remote GK you have dial-peer with G711u call only, if any of the above is not what you have please correct me , Ash On Thu, Dec 1, 2011 at 2:53 PM, ccielabrat ccielab...@gmail.com wrote: ok, I'm getting to understand this better.

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Question about Called Number displayed on phone.
Can someone help me understand what determines what gets displayed on the phone display when calling outbound. I have a setup where I have a h323 Gw and MGCP Gw in a single RL. I create a route pattern of 9.2345678 and assign it to the RL. If it goes to the H323 GW , I don't drop the 9 prefix in the RL and it displays 92345678 on the phone. If it goes to the MGCP GW, the 9 prefix is dropped in the RL and it displays 2345678 on the phone. So I figured the display value must be based on what gets sent to the GW, but this doesn't seem to be true either. If I adjust my dial-peers on H323 to match on 2345678 (no 9 prefix) , and drop the 9 in the RL , I still see the 9 prefix as dialed on the phone. ___ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com Are you a CCNP or CCIE and looking for a job?

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Question about CUBE Gatekeepers
I need clarification about Gatekeepers using outvia to a CUBE zone. I've always thought a CUBE config needed the underlying Telephony-service config to be operational. Is that the case? I suppose if the call setup is using g.729 in/out of the CUBE , there is no need to have anything but a matching dial-peer and the allow h323 to h323 in the voice service voip. Can someone confirm or correct my understanding.

Now that I am ready to schedule my lab exam, I need to ask it again. How are successful exam takers breaking down and grouping the tasks that make up the lab to allow for time savings ? My natural approach so far is to take a sheet of paper and divide it into 4 boxes (HQ, BR1, BR2, CUCM) Then I read through the practice exam and note the task # (i.e. 1.1 ) and a 1-3 word description in the device box that it relates to. If a task includes or impacts multiple devices, it goes in multiple boxes. I also note DN's in each location box and call restrictions for each dn in shorthand. In the CUCM box, I keep an area that notes service parameters that need attention , in addition to the more general stuff. In trying this a couple times, it seems I can get a straw man topology working in short order. But I'm concerned that it leaves me in a position where I will end up jumping around to fine tune devices/locations multiple times. I know the common strategy that was used in the prior version of the lab (Touch each device once) is generally not the way with the new format. Maybe with the troubleshooting in the exam now, my approach is flawed. Any opinion or insight is appreciated.

Hi All, I'm working on a better understanding of the options with MOH from CME. I have one endpoint registered as SCCP and one as SIP. Questions: 1.) Does the SIP phone configuration for MOH get defined in the telephony-service area? 2.) And does multicast MOH to sip endpoints work the same as SCCP ? 3.) If multicast moh is configured , is there any option for the phone to fallback to unicast if it can't join the multicast? What I have now is a call from SIP to SCCP works and if the SIP phone holds the call, I do get moh on the SCCP. If the SCCP phone holds the call, I get beeps on the SIP phone.

Randall Roger, Are you kidding me?

In the time it took to reply, both of you could have deleted it and moved on with your day. I don't see either of you replying back to morons who blatantly ask for NDA information. *Your arrogance is laughable*, to think either of you have a place to suggest what does or doesn't belong on this mailing list. If you have a problem with it , take it up with the mailer admin. Or email me a picture of your mailer police badge , and then I'll consider your email.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Converting SCCP phones to SIP
Looks like I'm right back in the same mess again. Now I can't seem to get the CIPC currently running SIP to run as a SCCP phone. I even changed the TFTP away from CME and pointed it to CUCM thinking that would force the phone to register as an SCCP phone. No good. Is there a factory reset' type action available on CIPC ? Looking at the logs , phone is simply requesting the SIP config file from CUCM and failing with an unprovisioned message on the phone. I've tried to configure the CIPC endpoint as SCCP and SIP without getting either to work. I'm in the weeds without a plan. If anyone can point me in any direction, I'd appreciate it .

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Expensive Lunch
Just my 2 cents. I had a very similar experience as you in terms of scoring. Some items I know where working got no points. It's my impression (and others I've spoken with) is that once the proctor gets to -21 on your score, they simply stop any further testing in most cases. I could be wrong and I would suspect they are instructed by Cisco to score the whole exam but I don't believe they do.

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Clarifying VPM Broadcast setup
I think I have the VPIM Broadcast config straight now.But I want to confirm I'm doing it the normal way. CUE is configured with it's location VPIM-Broadcast ID as 852. I'm creating a VPIM subscriber with an remote mailbox of 852 and assigning it to the cue vpim location. I'm creating a PDL and including all HQ and SB phones and VPIM user 852 in it. From Unity Broadcast admin , i'm selecting as a PDL and leaving the message. What I'm noticing is that the message is delivered as a normal VM to the HQ and SB sites but as a true broadcast to the CUE users. It seems to work (MWI, etc.) , just curious if there is a variant on the config . Also, I'm assuming the same basic scenario is used for CUE to Unity Broadcast ? But Unity doesn't light an MWI for broadcast delivery right ?

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] What is the difference between VPIM delivery ?
I'm testing VPIM delivery from Unity to CUE using a PDL with an extension of 666. If I send a vm directly to PDL ext 666 , the message goes through and the MWI light goes on for CUE extensions. If I send a vm via Broadcast Manager to PDL 666 , the message doesn't go through and the MWI light doesn't go on (obviously). The only difference I can see is the subject line in the VPIM trace on CUE reads Broadcast Message instead of From x...@xxx.xxx ?

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] CME Transfer
I'm trying to setup a quick transfer to voicemail option. I'd like to have a scenario as follows: Extension 5001 receives a call. A speed dial is configured on the second button of this ephone (*5002) The user on 5001 presses transfer and the speed dial button for *5002. Pressing Transfer again is NOT needed. The call should go directly to voicemail greeting for 5002. I have the whole vmdirect thing setup with translation patterns so if I simply press the speed-dial on 5001, the call goes directly to 5002's greeting. I can't get a call from PSTN to be directly transferred to 5002's Voicemail greeting though. The PSTN call simply gets disconnected when I press the speed-dial button. I've tried a couple of options with call-forward and transfer pattern, but nothing works. Any ideas?

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Lab attack order.
I'm curious how people have approached the order of completing a lab.

I know Vik and Mark have their own opinions on this, but I wanted to throw it out to the more general audience for feedback.
Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Lab attack order.
Chris , Great layout and exactly what I was looking for. Thanks On Tue, Mar 3, 2009 at 10:27 PM, Chris Parker cpar...@cparker.us wrote: I think everyone has their own way of doing it, but here's how I go about it: STEP ZERO - read the whole lab carefully. It's hard to do when you are nervous. Try and pay attention the the details and look for tricks. Then work things out like what partitions and css you'll need, how the gatekeeper will work. Do you need multicast. Try and get you head around the lab as much as possible. 1. Gather info This is where I log into everything and look at CDP to get the MAC addresses of the phones and of the 6608 devices. I put all of this info into notepad for easy cut and paste. I hardly use any paper in the lab everything goes into notepad for easy access and no retyping. 2. 6500 Next I set up the 6500. I do all the vlans, aux vlans, voice ports, muulticast, and any QoS 3. HQ Here I set up interfaces, NTP, timezone, DHCP if need be, multicast if needed, QoS and the basic Gatekeeper config. I like doing all the QoS at the beginning of the lab, and by doing it on HQ first it helps with time because you can just cut and paste what you do on HQ to BR1 and BR2. I set up the GK enough so that I know the CME and UCM will register in the correct zones. Also if I see I need VIA-GK I go ahead and set up IPIPGW, dial peers and transcoder (as needed) on HQ. I go back and tweak the GK config later after I have set up UCM and CME. 4. BR1 I paste in QoS config copied from HQ, create the vlans, create interfaces, set helper address and multicast if needed, set up switch ports, set up dhcp if needed, set up ntp and timezone, set isdn switchtype, configure PRI for MGCP or H323, tweak isdn settings on serial, set up mgcp if needed, set up translation rules, set up CoR if needed, configure dial peers if needed for H323 and/or SRST, config transcoder and conf bridge if needed, set up SRST. 5. BR2 I paste in QoS config copied from HQ, create interfaces, set helper address and multicast if needed, set up dhcp if needed, set up ntp and timezone, set isdn switchtype, configure PRI, tweak isdn settings on serial, set voice service to allow h323 to sip, set up translation rules, set up CoR if needed, configure dial peers (these can often be copied with minor tweaks from BR1), config transcoder and conf bridge if needed (another section copied fro BR1), run telephony service setup, paste mac address from step 1 to appropriate ephone, set up H323 gateway and confirm registered to HQ, set voip dial peers for HQ GK and CUE, add ephone-dns for MWI, set up BACD, add any hunt groups as needed. 6. CUE I normally do this step while doing something else at the same time like setting up the 3550. There's alot of waiting in this step while CUE just does its thing. Once CUE is up and ready to be configured, I normally do the basic setup with the GUI (this will set up mwi, and your sip triggers and applications) and then do user creation from the CUE CLI. 7. 3550 Here I do vlans and set up ports, and do any QoS. 8. CME Testing So at this point 90% of the CLI work is done and all the CME/CUE stuff is complete. So here I do some quick testing on CME dialing in / out to PSTN, CUE MWI, and BACD. 9. Callmanager Basic So here Im doing all the CM stuff I can think of except call routing and phones. I go into serviceability first and turn on whatever services I need. Then I go back to admin. I use the Top Left to Right method. So System menu first and usually touch everything except Device Defaults. Then in Route Plan I do AAR, Partitions, CSS, and I try to do any translation patterns that I think I'll need. Then I jump over to the Device menu. I do any custom soft keys or button templates. I set up EM profiles if I need them. I set up all my gateways and make sure they register, I set up the GK and trunk I set up any CTI route points I need. I DO NOT set up the phones yet however. Then I move to the Feature Menu. I setup my phone services, voice mail, and park or pickup if need be. Then I go to the services menu. I setup all the media resources, lists and groups and make sure everything is registered and in the right device pool. After the media stuff is done I go back to the device pools and assign the MRGL. I always do IPMA or AC later after the phones are set up. 10. Eat Lunch Yep all the stuff listed above needs to be done before lunch. 11. Callmanager routing and Phones So this part is all about the Route Groups, Route Lists, and Route Patterns. I plan most of this out in step zero or at lunch. Once thats all done I start setting up the phones and users. If I did everything right in step 9 and I can do everything I need to on every phones without going back and add partitions or what not. When this is done I do some quick basic testing with the PSTN. 12. Gatekeeper Now that everything is built on CCM and CME

My question is the CSS that is assigned to the actual VM PILOT DN. As I see it, the PILOT DN wouldn't be used for outbound calling. - Scott On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 11:55 AM, Cliff McGlamry cl...@mcglamry.net wrote: You're making an outbound call from the port when you transfer to that last number.

Jose, The CSS was set correctly, but I never reset the ports :) It's all working now. BTW: On a semi-related note, What is the significance of the CSS assigned to the VM Pilot number? I can't see how that DN would ever be leveraged for outbound service. - Scott On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 10:46 AM, Jose Gregorio Linero (jlinero) jlin...@cisco.com wrote: Hi: Take a look at the CSS configuration in Unity ports.

I'm trying to get a Poor mans hunt group working by using Unity Call Handlers to ring a couple of extensions and then ultimately forward the call out to a PSTN phone. I've gotten everything working but the last forward out to a PSTN number (91408xxx) I've checked and changed the default restriction table in Unity , so I think the call should be allowed. Where can I look to troubleshoot this? The call viewer application doesn't show any good information. Thanks Scott
[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Device Pool Question
I had been struggling with getting the IPIPGW scenario working (Task 4.9) in the IPEXPERT workbook. The specific problem was making an H.323 call from CME and have it delivered via SIP Trunk to CM. I found , although I had an MRGL assigned to the trunk, the MTP within the MRGL wasn't in the same Device Pool as the trunk. Once I assigned the MTP to the same Device Pool as the Trunk (DP_711only) , the call completed. This doesn't make sense to me. The MTP was in a device pool called Default which contained a region called default The Trunk was in a device pool called DP_711only which contained a region called g711 The regions were configured to use G.711 between each other. What am I not understanding here? What would require the MTP to be in the same Device pool? - Scott

Thanks for the reply Mark.I'll give it a try. On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 1:16 PM, Mark Snow ms...@ipexpert.com wrote: Well with all as you said, it 'should' have worked fine. That being said, maybe at one time there was another DP assiged or a different R within one of the DPs. Sometimes the UCM 4 DB had to be 'bumped' to get it to reconize some changes and possibly your change did just that. If all is as you say then I would imagine that changing it back would also result in a completed call. HTH, Mark Snow Sr Technical Instructor IPexpert, Inc.

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Transcoding Question.
I need to get a better understanding of how transcoding is invoked. I've setup an IPIPGW on the HQ Router. I'm trying to setup H.323(g711) - SIP (g729) calls to/from Hq/SiteC I've configured a transcoder and registered it to the telephony service on the HQ RT. I've noticed in the IPExpert proctor guide that the HQ router is registered as a HW transcoder in the UCM. Is that needed? I assumed the a g711 from UCM would come into the IPIPGW and the IPIPGW would invoke a transcoder. I didn't think the UCM needed anything for this. Can someone help me out? - Scott
[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Correction: Transcoding Question.
After some review, I see that the MTP being configured is a software MTP . It is being assigned to the device pool that will be used for the ICT trunk going to the IPIPGw. -- Forwarded message -- From: ccielab...@gmail.com Date: Sat, Jan 3, 2009 at 11:17 AM Subject: Transcoding Question.
