[OSL | CCIE_Voice] MVA partial match issue
hi, I config the Service parameter for MVA , using partial match 7 digit . However when I dial the RD using 7 digit ,it never works. seem like UCM only take Full match.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] MVA partial match issue
You can have the rd with 7 digits only and without the 9 for pstn access - use either application dial rules (match 7 digits, prefix 9) or a translation pattern to modify the rd to match your existing local route pattern. I'm not sure if there's an MVA bug in this version of cucm, but its pretty easy to configure it so that you always have a full match since you will likely have only one rd. This is what I do for the lab. A real world (for nanp) example of MVA partial match would be using e164 address for all rd (+1 npa-nxx-) and set partial match to 10 or 7 depending on whether all sites receive inbound ani as 10d for local calls or if any sites receives only 7d. This would also work for lab, but takes extra steps if you aren't already required to use + dialing For partial match to work, the rd must be longer than the inbound ani (ani 7d and rd +11d). You cannot use partial match with an ani longer than the rd (ani 10d and rd 7d), in this case your options would be to apply inbound transformation on the gateway to make rd ani shorter (ie match the rd) or make your rd longer and manipulate outbound dnis to make it route.

My question is what is preventing it from ringing 4101 and 4102 even though the agents are in a Ready state? Given the way you presented your script logic this behavior is expected. You are asking the contact to press 1 and handling the transfer action prior to the Select Resource step. 2) The resources set for 4101 and 4102 are in Resource group name S and the CSQ for this is named as CSQ. The resource criteria is Longest Available. Is this correct? Longest Idle == Longest Available 3) Any other parameter that needs to be checked under the Resource group or the CSQ? Can't say. Assuming you have configured your resources and CSQ correctly and you have properly employed either Resource Group or Skills based routing then I think you are OK. If you have failed to configure resources/CSQ/etc. correctly then you are not OK. 4)Is the configuration steps correct ? What steps are missing if any and how do we correct it? Is the script correct? Is something not behaving the way you want or expect it to? If yes, then something is provisioned incorrectly. Your script has a logic flaw. -option 1:- a) call redirect to 4001 b) If successful goto queueLoop Step (b) doesn't make sense to me.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Network side vs User side clocking !
Since no one responded, I guess I'll be the geek for now. The difference between using network-side clocking and user-side clocking is similar to the DCE / DTE difference. PRI and E1 are implementations of the ISDN protocol over T1 à a point-to-point, synchronous circuit. Synchronous circuits require timing, so one end should operate as the master of the clock and the other end should recover the clock/timing/synchronization from the master. One of the amazing things about T1 design is that one doesn’t necessarily have to setup clocking correctly to get the circuit to work. However, you must configure it correctly to get the circuit to work well. When I started out, clocking was rudely referred to as master/slave, but fortunately many vendors like Cisco adopted more politically-correct terminology. Network = Master (usually telco side). User side is the other end. In Cisco's case the clock master is defined under the controller T1 x/x/x as 'clock source internal.' Usually a PRI handoff from the PSTN in the real world would be set as so for you on whatever equipment they use to provide you your T1 span. I'd expect your controllers on the PSTN router in the lab to be set ‘clock source internal.’ Don't know for sure if Cisco does it that way in the lab; I assume they would if they wanted it to bear any resemblance to the real world. Therefore, the site A,B C controllers would normally be set opposite to network side, which would be to say, ‘clock source line.’ Since this is the default, the command becomes invisible in the config. A good way someone told me to remember this is, You set the controller to ‘clock source line’ if you want it to look up the line for the clock. The part in your question about layer 1 and layer 2 doesn't exactly pertain to clocking. The 4-wire T1 is layer 1, pins 1-2/4-5. Q.921 is layer 2. Q.931 is layer 3. Without going into much detail, what you can do with the network-clock-participate and network-clock-select command is to inform the router about your preferences as to what to do with the clock timing(s) it recovers on its various T1 controllers. For example in the real world, it is possible to have a PRI from carrier X and another span from carrier Y. In this case you might want to use network-clock-select to control the relative priority of the two clock sources. It is a best practice to set network-clock-select explicitly even if you have only one PRI/E1, as doing so avoids slips. Network-clock-participate informs the router that it may be possible to gather a clock source on a particular wic, and the network-clock-select informs the router as to which one of those to use to sync the backplane of the router. Your PVDM2s that provide the DSPs for the PRIs are probably installed on the backplane, so it would probably be nice if they had benefit to the same clock synchronication. This has nothing to do with NTP. Different kind of clock. Use the following command to check your T1 clocking. 2951R2#show network-clocks Network Clock Configuration --- Priority Clock SourceClock State Clock Type 1 T1 0/0/0GOODT1 2 T1 0/1/0GOODT1 10 Backplane GOODPLL Current Primary Clock Source --- Priority Clock SourceClock State Clock Type 1 T1 0/0/0GOODT1 https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/189145 Thanks On Sat, Mar 23, 2013 at 6:07 PM, CCIEing aboaz...@gmail.com wrote: Hi geeks :) What is the difference between using Network side clocking and User Side clocking.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Network side vs User side clocking !
Really good explanation from Tony. As an addendum to him, you can use show controllers command to verify that the controller is set to clock source line, which, as Tony already mentioned, is hidden being default.

I'd expect your controllers on the PSTN router in the lab to be set ‘clock source internal.’ Don't know for sure if Cisco does it that way in the lab; I assume they would if they wanted it to bear any resemblance to the real world. Therefore, the site A,B C controllers would normally be set opposite to network side, which would be to say, ‘clock source line.’ Since this is the default, the command becomes invisible in the config. A good way someone told me to remember this is, You set the controller to ‘clock source line’ if you want it to look up the line for the clock. The part in your question about layer 1 and layer 2 doesn't exactly pertain to clocking. The 4-wire T1 is layer 1, pins 1-2/4-5. Q.921 is layer 2. Q.931 is layer 3. Without going into much detail, what you can do with the network-clock-participate and network-clock-select command is to inform the router about your preferences as to what to do with the clock timing(s) it recovers on its various T1 controllers. For example in the real world, it is possible to have a PRI from carrier X and another span from carrier Y. In this case you might want to use network-clock-select to control the relative priority of the two clock sources. It is a best practice to set network-clock-select explicitly even if you have only one PRI/E1, as doing so avoids slips. Network-clock-participate informs the router that it may be possible to gather a clock source on a particular wic, and the network-clock-select informs the router as to which one of those to use to sync the backplane of the router. Your PVDM2s that provide the DSPs for the PRIs are probably installed on the backplane, so it would probably be nice if they had benefit to the same clock synchronication. This has nothing to do with NTP. Different kind of clock. Use the following command to check your T1 clocking. 2951R2#show network-clocks Network Clock Configuration --- Priority Clock SourceClock State Clock Type 1 T1 0/0/0GOODT1 2 T1 0/1/0GOODT1 10 Backplane GOODPLL Current Primary Clock Source --- Priority Clock SourceClock State Clock Type 1 T1 0/0/0GOODT1 https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/189145 Thanks On Sat, Mar 23, 2013 at 6:07 PM, CCIEing aboaz...@gmail.com wrote: Hi geeks :) What is the difference between using Network side clocking and User Side clocking. Regarding the exam, do they ask us to use any one of the both in particular ? I saw practice question informing that the PRI circuit layer 2 should be user side where as it will be a network side clocking for layer 1 as for the last sentence (network site), I would assume that we will use *network-clock- participate wic X* * * *Waiting your valuable input * ___ 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?
