Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] 911 calls by mistake

2014-05-26 Thread probert...@gmail.com
Hi,

You could use Unity Connection to intercept 911 calls.
In few cases where this was becoming a big issue I setup a call handler
that would play a message: If you are trying to reach 911 press 1 or just
stay on the phone, if you dialed 911 by mistake hang up now.

CSS on most phones --911 -- CFA to VM
CSS on Unity--911-- PSTN

911CallHandler -- DTMF1 -- 911
 After Greeting --911

HTH,
Robert

 Guys,
 Our users are dialing 911 by mistake and cops are responding to the calls
 i think the reason being we use 9 to dial out.
 For long distance it is 91 and international it is 9011 . i thought about
 using 8 instead of 9 to dial out but we have some DNs that start with 8.
 Some of the guys suggest to use secondary dial tone when we press 9. Below
 are the route patterns that start with  9. Any idea how to solve this ?

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Question about CCIE Written Exam

2013-12-05 Thread probert...@gmail.com
Hi,

Here is a quote from cisco site:
You must make an initial attempt of the CCIE lab exam within 18-months of
passing the CCIE written exam. If you do not pass the lab exam within three
years of passing the written exam, you must retake the written exam before
being allowed to attempt the lab exam again.

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] AXL servers and CUC

2013-10-25 Thread probert...@gmail.com
This is also what I wonder about. I know it looks like the voicemail should
be easy but there must be more to it. That's why I started looking closer
at the AXL servers and CUC.
My guess would be to have pub always as the first choice, add sub as a
backup and make sure that AXL is active on sub.

 In this instance, best practice is a relative concept. Many applications
 leverage AXL to retrieve information and you can leverage that API to
 retrieve information on any node in the cluster. Applications that push
 configurations should be leveraging the publisher to do so. That said, I
 would think that you could send a SQL update, addphone, updateuser, etc.
 AXL command to a subscriber node. Of course, it would only succeed if the
 publisher node is on line.

 Anyway, my policy is to enable a secondary AXL server in the cluster if I
 have applications that are leveraging AXL to pull information. Like CUxAC,
 CUC, UCM IM/P, etc. CCX actually writes using the AXL API. Not that having
 a redundant AXL server would hurt but if I just have CCX and UCM, I
 typically go with a single AXL instance.

 IMO, you will not harm your cluster if you enable AXL on subsequent
 nodes in the cluster. You must have it on the first node (pub) if you are
 going to have it at all.

 In the IE lab, at least the current blue print, you will want to enable
 the AXL service on both Pub and Sub. If for no other reason than to avoid
 goofy issues during initialization of CUE in a scenario where CUE registers
 directly to UCM.

 HTH.

 Hi,

 I have few questions related to AXL servers and CUC. Should CUC be
 configured to use both sub and pub as AXL servers?

 According to doc:

 Cisco AXL Web Service

 Activate on the first node only. Failing to activate this service causes
 the inability to update Cisco Unified Communications Manager from
 client-based applications that use AXL.

 But as far as I know CUC will not be updating anything on CUCM using AXL
 it is just used to read data during the user import.   So since AXL can be
 activated on SUB can we use it with CUC? I know it works I just want best
 practice, if we don't than we have no redundancy. I guess this also applies
 to UCCX.

 Should we activate AXL on sub in the lab and should we configure CUC to
 use both AXL servers in the lab?

 Thanks!

Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Base configs and Dial Plan mapping

2013-10-17 Thread probert...@gmail.com
Hi,

I think my strategy will be to set all Service Parameters to default before
making changes. This way I can avoid and undesirable presets.
Let me know your thoughts on this.

Also why are you setting DSCP for Phone Configuration and DSCP for Cisco
CallManager to Device Interface to AF31? Default CS3 should be good, let me
know if I'm wrong on this?

 I have also been building base router configs for h323, gatekeeper, mgcp,

 One of the things I haven't really been keeping track of are some of the

  Granted we all know that taking any CCIE Written will allow us to remain
 CCIE's even if Voice is retired, but I think the frustration is Voice and
 Collaboration are not THAT far apart and no matter how you look at it, it
 all falls under Cisco Unified Communications, which is what the name of the
 new CCIE really should be anyway.  The core of the Voice blueprint is still
 there. The Collaboration equipment list looks like a refresh of current
 products, not a forklift of one technology replacing another.
 
  In my opinion this was too harsh of a move to retire Voice and start
 over again with Collaboration.  There are too many similarities between the
 two.

  Ranting about it won't change anything.  I read on line that when they

  That seems to be a difficult pill to swallow but it would not be the
 first from my reading.  Storage had this happen earlier this year as have
 several others.  See here with the snippet.  Now the second is a wiki so we
 would want official confirmation.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisco_Career_Certifications#Retired_CCIE_
  tracks
  Retired CCIE tracks
 
  Some previously awarded CCIE specializations have been retired by Cisco.
 These are:
 
   *   WAN Switching CCIE (Essentially a specialisation focusing on the
 IGX/BPX switch products, which had been acquired as part of the StrataCom
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StrataCom acquisition)
   *   ISP Dial CCIE
   *   SNA/IP Integration CCIE (aka CCIE Blue)
   *   Design CCIE (NOTE: The CCIE Design and CCDE are completely
 different design tests in format and subjects examined)
 
  People who hold these now-retired certifications can remain CCIEs,
 provided they continue to take recertification exams. They now hold the
 title CCIE, rather than CCIE Security, or some other specialization.
 
  So if we can get official confirmation that we won't be stripped of CCIE
 if you pass the voice lab, it might be good, for those of us that have
 already passed we don't get a chance to change our minds for those that
 have yet to pass, this might be incentive to change your goal.

  A 2nd grader can pass RS/Sec/SP much much easier than Voice IE. Voice is

 If Cisco has lost faith in re-cert, that should apply to every track, not
 just Voice.
 
  Naturally, they should have renamed Certification to Voice/Collaboration
 or Voice/Video etc  introduced new version. If they had to do this
 retiring thing, why didn't they do when they introduced V3 from V2 ? Old
 days of Call Manager based on Windows  literally everything based on
 windows, Analog endpoints/VGs/ATAs etc. Retiring CCIE Voice makes no sense
 whatsoever whether be it from marketing point of view or any other.  Why
 can't big buck makers at Cisco just rename a Cert rather than do something
 completely rubbish.
 
  With just one announcement, they have made many people lose faith in
 Certification process. I am sure Voice labs will be the most deserted labs
 until Feb 2014.
 
  At the end of day, we can only request Cisco to re-consider this
 decision. I hope folks concerned collaborate   put their suggestions
 forward on Cisco Support
