[OSL | CCIE_Voice] MVA partial match issue

2013-03-25 Thread donny f
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.  I heard this is bug,

Any suggestion for the work around if still want to use partial match ?

 Greetings,
 I think you are doing everything right just need a few tweaks.  Place a
 call from the PSTN line 2 to 3033300 and do debug isdn q931 on gateway.
  What digits do you see for the calling number.  7 or 10?  If seeing 7
 digits inbound change your Remote Destination Number to 525, without
 the 9.  If you are seeing 10 digits inbound the NPA, NXX, TNTN change your
 remote destination number to XXX525, in other words match what you're
 seeing in the isdn debug for calling party and make that you're Remote
 Destination Number.


 Do NOT require the prefix of 9 on the Remote Destination Number.  Also,
 under Remote Destination Information make sure you are putting a tick in
 Mobile Phone checkbox and a tick in the Enable Mobile Connect checkbox.

 Otherwise your configuration looks good.  Hope you find this helpful.

 Hello All,


 I have been trying this config for MVA  for close to 2 weeks now and it
 does not work . Here are the details


 The Issue :
 ==

 I am trying to Intiate a Call from PSTN phone to site B gateway (H323)
 3033300 it should ask for
 authentication once authenticated press 1 to make any 4 digit calls if it
 is from SB phone 1 . Make sure to display 4 digits number for calling
 number along with calling name SB Phone 1 they can use local gateway to
 make the call.

 Also 2nd line on PSTN phone should be used to dial 3033300 and you will
 prompted to login.



 Details:
 =

 My config is following

 1) The dial-peers are set in the following way

 dial-peer voice 102 voip
  preference 2
  destination-pattern 3300
  session target ipv4:ip address of the CUCM Pub  dtmf-relay
 h245-alphanumeric  codec g711ulaw  no vad !
 dial-peer voice 5 pots
  service cmm
  incoming called-number 3300
  no digit-strip


 2) here is the MVA service url
 !
 application
 service cmm http://ip address of the CUCM
 Pub:8080/ccmivr/pages/IVRMainpage.vxml
 !


 3) I am stripping 3033300 coming from pstn to last  4 digits  using a
 translation-rule on the voice-port level . That is 3033300 becomes 3300
 when it reaches CUCM.


 4) On CUCM in the service parameters...

 Enable Mobile Voice access is set to True Mobile voice access number is
  3300 Matching caller id with Remote Destination is Partial Match Number of
 digits of Caller ID Partial Match is 7

 5) The Mobility softkey has been added for on hold and connected at
 the softkey template level and applied to the phone ( SB PH1)


 6)At the User  SB phone 1  I have enabled Enable Mobility and Enable
 Mobile Voice Access
 also selected the MAC address of the phone


 7) Created a Remote Dest profile and selected user id of sb ph1 and the
 correct calling search space for the phone


 8) Added a Remoted Destination number of 9525


 9) Also went to device  phone  and selected the Owner User ID of SB Ph1


 10) Cisco Unified Mobile Voice Access Service is running on both Sub and
 Pub on CUCM



 Questions :
 

 1) I now dial from the pstn line 9525 on the pstn phone to 3033300 .
 The prompt I get asks me for a pin .
 I enter 1 and the call drops . I Even tried entering 12345 ( which the pin
 for user SB Phone 1) and still the call drops after the prompt.
 Anything wrong the above config? Anything missing in the config ? Any
 suggestions?


 2) I am strip the number to last 4 digits ( as in step 3) . Is this
 correct procedure?


 3) There is also no QOS setup in the config for now . Anything related to
 Bandwidth here?




 Please help!

 Hi, thanks for your help

 yes I have the type on the ephone, the way that I found to fix the problem
 is copyin the configuraton on notepad, removing the telephony-service and
 putting back again the configuration in the router, the line appears again
 on the phone and the ephone template takes effect.

 2013/3/24 Steve Keller skeller...@gmail.com

 
  Bug you do not want to reset phones in SRST mode. It is for this reason
  that it would be recommended to test your SRST early in the lab , write
  mem, reload and not do SRST again.
 
  CME as SRST was new in these releases and is known to be very buggy.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] MVA partial match issue

2013-03-25 Thread Justin Carney
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.

hi William,

Thanks for your reply.

I have now added the following for step (b) and added (c) ,(d),(e)

-start
-accept
-play prompt ( welcome prompt)
-menu( triggering contact , operator.wav)
-option 1:-
   a) call redirect to 4001
   b) If successful terminate
   c) if busy goto queueloop
   d) if Invalid goto queueloop
   e) if Unsuccessful goto queueloop
- Under Select Resource ( triggering contact - from CSQ) :-
   a)queueLoop:

1) Now when I call 4000 it says Thank you for calling this number ...if
you dialled this number by mistake please press 1 else someone will be with
you shortly

 Tests done:-
i I press 1 it goes to 4001 correctly  - This works
ii If I don't press any key and wait for timeout  the same prompts  I hear
with are u still there ?4 times and then it goes to the agents 4101
and 4102  - not clear whether this is right
ii If I press any other key other than 1  it says please dial again  and
I need to press the same key ( for example digit 3 on the keypad) atleast 3
times before it goes to the queue  -  not sure if this is the correct
method.

Please let me know if this is correct?

Thanks once again.

 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. If you successfully redirect the
 contact then the script logic shouldn't go to the queueLoop. You should
 terminate.

the full match, always work.

Just when we do partial , it never , and always ask for RD number  after we

I did exactly you suggest below.

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

is it best practice to always use Full Match, and the we hv to modify using

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Network side vs User side clocking !

2013-03-25 Thread Tony Zunt
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.

 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 *

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Network side vs User side clocking !

2013-03-25 Thread Suresh Bhandari
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.

 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.
