Cisco VoiP (Voice over IP)

Call Manager Debug

• On Router MGCP controlled
  • #sh rtp statistics

Cisco phones

7911

• Configures for sccp. (Not using SIP yet)
• Boot process
  1. DHCP gives phone ip, and option 150 gives it the CM ip's.
  2. Phone tftp's to CM option 150 ip to retrieve config file SEP.cnf.xml
     • From wireshark trace,
       1. CTLSEP001F9EABA0F3.tlv (File not found on CM) and then
       2. SEP001F9EABA0F3.cnf.xml (See phone mac ?) (includes, CM ip and code to load e.g. SCCP11.8-5-2S )
       3. English_United_States/tc-sccp.jar
       4. United_States/g3-tones.xml
       5. sccp login on tcp port 2000 to ip from config above.

CCMX Notes

• Cisco Unified CCX. Cisco Unified CCX Premium.
  • QM and AQM are available only with Cisco Unified CCX Premium.

• Note: Voice monitoring and recording are supported only on IPCC Express Enhanced and Premium Edition, not on Standard Edition.

• The VoIP silent monitoring server must be on the same VLAN as the agent phones and requires an available SPAN port.

• Cisco VoIP call recording with CallRex Call Recording™ software can be achieved through either packet-sniffing via port mirroring or with forked audio using the Built-in Bridge in selected Cisco IP-based telephones.

• Call recording can be achieved using the Built-in Bridge (BIB) option on selected Cisco IP phones.

  • Packet size, VAD

• VoiP Bandwidth savings.

  1. Codec: G.711 (64 Kbps) , G.729 (8 Kbps - Voice)(24 Kbps - with serial overhead) (32kbps - on ethernet)

  2. Changing Voice Payload Sizes
     • G.729 call with voice payload size of 20 bytes (20 ms):= 24 Kbps 40 bytes (40 ms):= 16 Kbps
       • Note: L2 headers are not considered in this calculation.
  3. RTP Header-Compression or Compressed RTP (cRTP)
     • Compressed Real-Time Protocol (cRTP) reduces the IP/UDP/RTP headers to 2or 4bytes (cRTP is not available over Ethernet).

• Call Admission Control

  • Locations, for systems with centralized call processing. Bandwidth (kbps)
  • Regions define the type of compression (G.711, G.723, or G.729) that is used on the link, and locations define the amount of available bandwidth for the link.
  • You assign each device in the system to both a region (by means of a device pool) and a location.

DSP

• check DSP Keepalive status in Cisco Voice gateways.

  • Voice-GW#test voice driver
  • # sh voice dsp
  • # show call resource voice stats

    • If above gives 0, you have not enabled dsp services dspfarm under the voice-card

• Setup BRI at remote site for breakout using central callmanager, H.323
