Feature Overview

Digital E1 packet voice trunk network modules for Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers allow enterprises or service providers, using the equipped routers as customer premises equipment, to deploy digital voice and fax relay. These modules receive constant bit-rate telephony information over E1 interfaces and can convert that information to a compressed format, so that it can be transmitted as Voice over IP (VoIP), Voice over Frame Relay (VoFR), and Voice over ATM (VoATM).

Cisco IOS software configuration allows you to set up a variety of applications. Here are a few examples:

•Compressed voice over WANs

•Routing of dialed variable-length digits collected from the public switched telephone network or PBX for VoIP, VoFR, and VoATM.

•Support for FRF.12 fragmentation and queuing in a VoIP over Frame-Relay network

•Drop and Insert of E1 channels on a E1 trunk to allow some PBX channels to be directed to the PSTN while others are used for compressed VoIP

For more information about these applications, see "Configuration Example" on page 40.

•Dynamic bandwidth allocation using voice activity detection (VAD)

•Drop-and-Insert capability, allowing the interchange of time-division multiplexing (TDM) slots between the ports on a two-port E1 multiflex trunk voice/WAN interface card installed in a digital E1 packet voice trunk network module

•Support for a wide range of International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) G-series compression specifications, including:

•G.711 A Law at 64,000 bps

•G.711 u Law at 64,000 bps

•G.723.1 Annex A at 5,300 bps

•G.723.1 Annex A at 6,300 bps

•G.723.1 at 5,300 bps

•G.723.1 at 6,300 bps

•G.726 at 16,000 bps

•G.726 at 24,000 bps

•G.726 at 32,000 bps

•G.728 at 16,000 bps

•G.729 at 8,000 bps

•G.729 Annex A at 8,000 bps

•G.729 Annex B at 8,000 bps

•G.729 Annex B with Annex A at 8,000 bps

•Depending on codec complexity, either 30 or 60 channels of compressed voice

•High-quality voice endpoint-standard features, such as high-quality echo cancellation, silence suppression, comfort noise generation, and DTMF relay

•Group 3 fax relay

Benefits

Digital E1 packet voice trunk network modules allow Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers to provide E1 connectivity to private branch exchanges (PBXs) or to a central office (CO). With digital E1 connectivity, Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers can provide greater voice density for enterprise and service provider VoIP networks than they could before. A digital E1 packet voice trunk network module is a complete solution, made up of a network module with installed packet voice data modules (PVDMs), and one E1 multiflex trunk voice/WAN interface card with either one or two E1 ports.

E1 Timing, Signaling, Framing, and Line Encoding

With the introduction of the digital E1 packet voice trunk network modules for the Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers, you must set timing, signaling, framing, and line encoding. Digital E1 packet voice trunk network modules can connect to either a PBX (or similar telephony device) or to a Central Office (CO) in order provide PSTN connectivity.

The differences that set E1 digital configuration apart from analog configuration are as follows:

•Timing. Analog interfaces do not require specific timing configuration. Digital E1 interfaces require not only that you set timing but that you consider the source of the timers.

•Framing. Analog interfaces do not require specific framing configuration. Digital E1 interfaces require that you configure for cyclic redundancy checking 4 (CRC-4) framing. Set the framing format to match that of the PBX or CO that connects to the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module.

•Line Encoding. Analog interfaces do not require specific line encoding configuration. Digital E1 interfaces require that you configure for High Density bipolar 3 (HDB3) encoding (similar to alternative mark inversion, or AMI). Set the line encoding to match that of the PBX or CO that connects to the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module.

Timing

This section describes the five basic timing scenarios that can occur when a digital E1 packet voice trunk network module is connected to a PBX, CO, or both. In all of the examples below, the PSTN (or Central Office) and the PBX are interchangeable for the purposes of providing or receiving clocking.

The digital E1 module has an on-board PLL (Phase-Lock Loop) chip that can either provide a clock source to both E1s or receive clocking that can drive the second E1 in the same digital E1 packet voice trunk network module. All timing commands are E1 controller configuration commands.

Single E1 Port Provides Clocking

In this scenario, the digital E1 module is the clock source for the connected device. The PLL generates the clock internally and drives the clocking on the E1 line.

Figure 1 Single E1 Port Providing Clock

The following configuration sets up this clocking method:
controller E1 1/0
framing crc4
linecoding hdb3
clock source internal
pri-group timeslots 1-31
Note Generally this method is useful only when connecting to a PBX, key system or channel bank. A Cisco VoIP Gateway rarely provides clocking to the CO, because CO clocking provides a higher Stratum level.

Single E1 Port Receiving Clock from the Line

In this scenario, the digital E1 module receives clocking from the connected device (CO or PBX). The PLL clocking is driven by the clock reference on the receive (Rx) side of the E1 connection.

Figure 2 Single E1 Receiving Clock from Line

The following configuration sets up this clocking method:
controller E1 1/0
framing crc4
linecoding b8zs
clock source line
pri-group timeslots 1-31
Dual E1s, Both Receive Clocking from the Line

In this scenario, the digital E1 has two reference clocks, one from the PBX and another from the CO. Since the PLL can only derive clocking from one source, this case is more complex than the two preceding examples.

Before looking at the details, consider two important concepts that underlay the clocking method:

•Looped-Time Clocking. The E1 port takes the clock received on its Rx (receive) pair and regenerates it on its Tx (transmit) pair. While the port receives clocking, the port is not driving the PLL on the card but is "spoofing" the E1 so that the connected device has a viable clock and does not see slips. PBXs are not designed to accept slips on a E1 line and such slips cause a PBX to drop the link into failure mode. While in looped-time mode, the router often sees slips, but because these are controlled slips, they usually do not force failures of the router's E1 port.

•Slips. These messages indicate that the E1 port is receiving clock information that is out of phase, that is, out of synch. Because the router has only a single PLL, it can experience controlled slips while it receives clocking from two different time sources.

The router can usually handle controlled slips because its single PLL architecture anticipates them.

Note Physical layer issues, such as bad cabling or faulty clocking references, can also cause slips. Eliminate these slips by addressing the physical layer or clock reference problems.

Figure 3 Dual E1s Receiving Line Clocking

In this scenario, the PLL derives clocking from the CO and puts the E1 port connected to the PBX into looped-time mode. This is usually the best method because the CO provides an excellent clock source (and usually requires that it provide that source) and a PBX usually must receive clocking from the other E1.

The following configuration sets up this clocking method:
controller E1 1/0 << description - connected to the CO
framing crc4
linecoding hdb3
clock source line primary
pri-group timeslots 1-31
!
controller E1 1/1 << description - connected to the PBX
framing crc4
linecoding hdb3
clock source line
pri-group timeslots 1-31
The clock source line primary command tells the router to use this E1 port to drive the PLL. All other E1 ports configured as clock source line are then put into an implicit loop-timed mode. If the primary E1 port fails or goes down, the other E1 instead receives the clock that drives the PLL. In this configuration, E1 1/1 may see controlled slips, but these should not force it down. This method prevents the PBX from seeing slips.

Dual E1s, One Receives Clocking and One Provides Clocking

In this scenario, the digital E1 module receives clocking for the PLL from E1 0 and uses this clock as a reference to clock E1 1. If E1 0 fails, the PLL internally generates the clock reference to drive E1 1.

Figure 4 Dual E1s, One Receiving and One Providing Clocking

The following configuration sets up this clocking method:
controller E1 1/0
framing crc4
linecoding hdb3
clock source line 
pri-group timeslots 1-31
!
controller E1 1/1
framing crc4
linecoding hdb3
clock source internal
pri-group timeslots 1-31
Dual E1s, Both Clocks from Router

In this scenario, the router is "Master of the Timing Universe," generating the clock for the PLL and therefore for both E1s.

Figure 5 Dual E1s, Both Clocks from Router

The following configuration sets up this clocking method:
controller E1 1/0
framing crc4
linecoding hdb3
clock source internal
pri-group timeslots 1-31
!
controller E1 1/1
framing esf
linecoding b8zs

pri-group timeslots 1-31

VoIP Quality of Service

This section explains the quality issues that you should consider when building Voice over IP (VoIP) networks and offers a few tips about configuring VoIP with the appropriate Quality of Service (QoS):

•Delay. Delay is the time it takes for VoIP packets to travel between two endpoints and you should design networks to minimize this delay. However, because of the speed of network links and the processing power of intermediate devices, some delay is expected. The human ear normally accepts up to about 150 milliseconds (ms) of delay without noticing problems (the ITU's G.114 standard recommends no more than 150 ms of one-way delay). Once delay exceeds 150 ms, a conversation becomes more and more like a walkie-talkie interchange, where one person must wait for the other to stop speaking before beginning to talk. This type of delay is often evident on international long-distance calls. You can measure delay fairly easily by using ping tests at various times of the day with different network traffic loads. If network delay is excessive, reduce it before deploying VoIP networks.

•Jitter. While delay can cause unnatural starting and stopping of conversations, variable-length delays (also known as jitter) can cause a conversation to break and become unintelligible. Jitter is not usually a problem with public switched telephone network (PSTN) calls, because the bandwidth of calls is fixed. However, in VoIP networks where existing data traffic might be bursty, jitter can become an issue. Cisco voice gateways have built-in de-jitter buffering to compensate for a certain amount of jitter, but if jitter is constant on a network, identify the source and control it before deploying a VoIP network.

•Serialization. Serialization is a term that describes what happens when a router attempts to send both voice and data packets out of an interface. In general, voice packets are very small (80 to 256 bytes), while data packets can be very large (1,500 to 18,000 bytes). On relatively slow links, such as WAN connections, large data packets can take a long time to transmit onto the wire. When these large packets are mixed with smaller voice packets, the excessive transmission time can lead to both delay and jitter. You can use fragmentation to reduce the size of the data packets so that the voice delay and jitter also decrease.

•Bandwidth Consumption. Traditional voice conversations consume 64 Kb of network bandwidth. When this voice traffic is run though a VoIP network, it can be compressed and digitized by digital signal processors (DSPs) built into the routers. This compression can reduce the calls to sizes as small as 5.3 Kb for voice samples. Once the packets go onto the IP network, the appropriate IP/UDP/RTP headers must be added, and this can add a significant amount of bandwidth to each call (about 40 bytes per packet). Technologies such as Compressed Real-Time Protocol (CRTP), however, can reduce the IP header overhead to about 4 bytes. In addition, VAD (voice activity detection) does not send any packets unless there is active speech.

Prerequisites

Digital E1 packet voice requires specific service, software, and hardware:

•Obtain E1 service from your service provider or PBX.

•Install Cisco IOS Software Release 12.0(7)XK or a later release. The minimum DRAM memory requirements to support digital E1 packet voice trunk network modules are as follows:

•48 Mb with one or two E1s

•64 Mb with three to eight E1s

•128 Mb with 9 to 12 E1s

The memory required may be greater than listed above for high-volume applications.

Support for digital E1 packet voice trunk network modules is included in Plus feature sets. The IP Plus feature set requires 16 Mb of flash memory.

•Install one of the following high-density E1 network modules in the router chassis:

•Single-Port 30 Channel E1 High-Density Voice Network Module (NM-HDV-1E1-30)

•Single-Port Enhanced 30 Channel E1 High-Density Voice Network Module (NM-HDV-1E130E)

•Dual-Port 60 Channel High-Density Voice Network Module (NM-HDV-2E1-60)

Note You can install one module in a Cisco 2600 series router or a Cisco 3620 router. A Cisco 3640 router can support three modules, and you can install as many as six modules in a Cisco 3660 router.

•Install at least one packet voice data module (PVDM-12) in the high-density digital E1 network module if it is not already equipped. The digital E1 packet voice trunk network module contains five 72-pin SIMM sockets or banks, numbered 0 through 4, for PVDMs. Each socket can be filled with a single 72-pin PVDM. A digital E1 packet voice trunk network module can support the following numbers of channels:

•When the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module is configured for high-complexity codec mode, up to six voice or fax calls can be completed per PVDM-12, using the following codecs: G.711, G.726, G.729, , G729 Annex A, G.729 Annex B, G.723.1, G.728, and fax relay.

•When the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module is configured for medium-complexity codec mode, up to twelve voice or fax calls can be completed per PVDM-12, using the following codecs: G.711, G.726, G.729 Annex A, G.729 Annex B with Annex A, and fax relay.

Note Each PVDM holds three digital signal processors (DSPs). With five PVDM slots populated, a total of 15 DSPs are provided. High-complexity codecs support two simultaneous calls on each DSP, while medium-complexity codecs support four calls on each DSP.

•Install at least one dual-mode voice/WAN interface card (VWIC) for a voice connection if a VWIC was not included with the network module. You can install one VWIC (providing one or two line interfaces) in the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module. Only the one- and two-port E1 multiflex trunk interface cards (VWIC-1MFT-E1, VWIC-2MFT-E1, VWIC-2MFT-E1-DI) are supported.

For Drop-and-Insert capability, you must install a two-port Drop-and-Insert E1 multiflex trunk voice/WAN interface card (VWIC-2MFT-E1-DI). To install a VWIC in a network module, see Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide.

•Install at least one other network module or WAN interface card to provide the connection to the IP LAN or WAN.

•Establish a working IP, frame relay, or ATM network. For more information about configuring IP, see "IP Overview," "Configuring IP Addressing," and "Configuring IP Services" chapters in the Cisco IOS Release 12.0 Network Protocols Configuration Guide, Part 1.

•Complete your company's dial plan.

•Establish a working telephony network based on your company's dial plan.

Voice, Video, and Home Applications Configuration Guide and Voice, Video, and Home Applications Command Reference for Cisco IOS Release 12.0 provide information about setting up voice networks.

Configuration Tasks

Perform the following tasks to configure a digital E1 packet voice trunk network module:

•Set up voice cards and E1 controllers.

•Configure serial and LAN interfaces.

•Set up voice ports.

•Configure voice dial peers.

Configuring Voice Card and E1 Controller Settings

The following steps specify codec settings for voice cards and set up E1 controllers for clocking and other E1 parameters, as well as for DS0 groups that define the channels for compressed voice and TDM groups for Drop-and-Insert capability.
Step

Command

Purpose
1
Router# configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
2
Router(config)# voice-card slot
Enter voice card interface configuration mode and specify the slot location by using a value from 0 to 5, depending upon your router.
3
Router(config-voice-ca)# codec complexity {high | 
medium}
Specify the codec complexity based on the codec standard you are using. High-complexity codecs support lower call density than do medium-complexity codecs. The number of channels supported is based on the number of PVDMs installed and the codec complexity. Here is a guideline:

•When the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module is configured for high-complexity codec mode, up to six voice or fax calls can be completed per PVDM-12, using the following codecs: G.711, G.726, G.729, G.729 Annex B, G.723.1, G.723.1 Annex A, G.728, and fax relay.

•When the digital E1 packet voice trunk network module is configured for medium-complexity codec mode, up to twelve voice or fax calls can be completed per PVDM-12, using the following codecs: G.711, G.726, G.729 Annex A, G.729 Annex B with Annex A, and fax relay

All voice cards in a router must use the same codec complexity setting.

The keyword that you specify for codec complexity affects the choice of codecs available using the codec dial-peer configuration command. See Step 7 in "Configuring Voice Dial Peers" on page 19.

Note You cannot change codec complexity while DS0 groups are defined. If they are already set up, use the no ds0-group command before resetting the codec complexity. For more information about the pri-group command, see Step 9.
4
Router(config)# controller E1 slot/port
Enter controller configuration mode for the E1 controller at the specified slot/port location. Valid values for slot and port are 0 and 1.
5
Router(config-controller)# clock source {line [primary] 
| internal}
Configure controller E1 1/0 to specify the clock source. The line keyword specifies that the clock source is derived from the active line—rather than from the free-running internal clock. This is the default setting and is generally more reliable. These rules apply to clock sourcing on the E1 controller ports:

•When both ports are set to line clocking with no primary specification, port 0 is the default primary clock source and port 1 is the default secondary clock source.

•When both ports are set to line and one port is set as the primary clock source, the other port is by default the backup or secondary source and is loop-timed.

•If one port is set to clock source line or clock source line primary and the other is set to clock source internal, the internal port recovers clock from the clock source line port if the clock source line port is up. If it is down, then the internal port generates its own clock.

•If both ports are set to clock source internal, there is only one clock source—internal.

See E1 Timing, Signaling, Framing, and Line Encoding for more information about configurations for clocking.
6
Router(config-controller)# framing crc4
Set the framing according to your service provider's instructions. Choose cyclic reduncancy check 4 (CRC4) format.
7
Router(config-controller)# linecode hdb3
Set the line encoding according to your service provider's instructions. E1 uses High Density bipolar 3 (HDB3) encoding (similar to alternative mark inversion, or AMI).
8
Router(config-controller)# cablelength long {gain26 | 
gain36} {-15db | -22.5db | -7.5db | 0db}
or
cablelength short {133 | 266 | 399 | 533 | 655}
(E1 interfaces only) The cable length setting must conform to the actual cable length you are using. For example, if you attempt to enter the cablelength short command on a long-haul E1 link, the command is rejected.

To set a cable length longer than 655 feet for a E1 link, use the cablelength long command. The keywords are as follows:

•gain26 specifies the decibel pulse gain at 26. This is the default pulse gain.

•gain36 specifies the decibel pulse gain at 36.

•-15db specifies the decibel pulse rate at -15 decibels.

•-22.5db specifies the decibel pulse rate at -22.5 decibels.

•-7.5db specifies the decibel pulse rate at -7.5 decibels.

•0db specifies the decibel pulse rate at 0 decibels. This is the default pulse rate.

To set a cable length 655 feet or less for a E1 link, use the cablelength short command. There is no default for cablelength short. The keywords are as follows:

•133 specifies a cable length from 0-133 feet.

•266 specifies a cable length from 134-266 feet.

•399 specifies a cable length from 267-399 feet.

•533 specifies a cable length from 400-533 feet.

•655 specifies a cable length from 534-655 feet.

If you do not set the cable length, the system defaults to a setting of cablelength long gain26 0db.
9
Router(config-controller)# pri-group timeslots 
timeslot-list
Enter a single timeslot number, a single range of values. For E1, the allowable values are from 1 to 31.
10
Router(config-controller)# no shutdown
Activate the controller.
11
Router(config-controller)# exit
Exit controller configuration mode. Skip the next step if you are not setting up Drop and Insert.
Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for each voice card.

Repeat Steps 4 through 11 for each controller.

Verifying Voice Card and Controller Settings

To verify the configuration of voice card and controller settings, follow these steps:

Step 1 Enter the show running-config command to display the current voice-card setting. If no codec complexity is shown, the default of medium complexity is set. The following example shows an excerpt from the command output:
Router# show running-config
.
.
.
hostname router-alpha 
voice-card 1
 codec complexity high 
.
.
.
Step 2 The privileged EXEC show controllers E1 command displays the status of E1 controllers and displays information about clock sources and other settings for the E1 ports:
Router# show controller E1 1/0
E1 1/0 is up.
  Applique type is Channelized E1
  Cablelength is short 133
  Description: E1 WIC card Alpha
  No alarms detected.
  Framing is CRC4, Line Code is HDB3, Clock Source is Line Primary.
  Data in current interval (1 seconds elapsed):

Configuring Serial Interfaces

The way you set up serial and LAN interfaces depends on your application. To configure VoIP, you must at least set up IP addresses for serial interfaces. When a user dials enough digits to match a configured destination pattern, the telephone number is mapped to an IP host through the dial plan mapper. The IP host has a direct connection to either the destination telephone number or a PBX that completes the call to the configured destination pattern.

This document does not explain all possible serial interface configuration options, nor does it show LAN interface configuration. For complete information, see the Cisco IOS Release 12.0 Cisco IOS Interface Configuration Guide and the Cisco IOS Interface Command Reference.

The "Configuration Example" section shows a sample configuration that sets up VoIP over Frame Relay. For more information about setting up voice networks, see Voice, Video, and Home Applications Configuration Guide for Cisco IOS Release 12.0.

Note For information about monitoring serial interfaces in order to trigger a busyout condition on a voice port when an interface is down, see "Configuring Voice Ports" on page 17.

Configuring Voice Ports

Follow these steps to set up voice ports to support the local and remote stations. Not all possible commands are shown here. To learn more, see Voice, Video, and Home Applications Configuration Guide and Voice, Video, and Home Applications Command Reference for Cisco IOS Release 12.0.
Step

Command

Purpose
1
Router# configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
2
Router(config)# voice-port slot/port:pri-group-no
Enter voice-port configuration mode.

slot is the router location where the voice module is installed. Valid entries are from 0 to 3.

port indicates the voice interface card location. Valid entries are 0 or 1.

There is only one voice port per controller for QSIG.

Note This voice-port command syntax does not apply to analog voice network modules and voice interface cards. The latter are specified using slot/subunit/port, designating the router slot for the voice network module, the location of the voice interface card in the network module, and the port on the voice interface card.
3
Router(config-voice-port)# busyout monitor interface 
interface number
(Optional) This command allows you to specify a LAN or WAN interface that will be monitored, and, when it is down, trigger a busyout (offhook) state on the voice port. This allows rerouting of calls. Busyout state for QSIG voice port implies that both the voice port and the signaling line is down. You can issue the command repeatedly to specify as many interfaces, virtual interfaces, and subinterfaces as are required for a voice port.

For example, if you issue the command three times so that three interfaces are monitored, the voice port only goes into busyout state when all three interfaces are down. When any one of the interfaces is operational, the busyout state is removed.
4
Router(config-voice-port)# comfort-noise
(Optional) This parameter is enabled by default. It creates subtle background noise to fill silent gaps during calls when VAD is enabled on voice dial peers. If comfort noise is not generated, the silence can be unsettling to callers.
5
Router(config-voice-port)# echo-cancel enable
(Optional) This setting is enabled by default. Echo cancellation adds to the quality of voice transmissions by adjusting the echo that occurs on the interface due to impedance mismatches. Some echo is reassuring; echo over 25 milliseconds can cause problems.
6
Router(config-voice-port)# echo-cancel coverage {16 | 24 
|32 | 8}
(Optional) This command adjusts the echo canceller by the specified number of milliseconds; the default is 16.
7
Router(config-voice-port)# exit
Exit voice-port configuration mode.

Repeat Steps 2 through 7 for each DS0 group you create.
8
Router # compand type [a-law | u-law ]
This command converts between analog and digital signals in PCM format. Specifying u-law is the North American mu-law ITU-T PCM encoding standard. Specifying a-law is the European a-law ITU-T PCM encoding standard.
9
Router # cp-tone 
This command specifies a regional analog voice interface-related tone, ring, and cadence setting. the locale keyword specifies one of the following countries: argentina, australia, austria, belgium, brazil, china, colombia, czechrepublic, denmark, finland, france, germany, greece, hongkong, iceland, israel, italy, japan, korea, luxembourg, malaysia, netherlands, newzealand, northamerica, norway, peru, philippines, poland, portugal, russia, singapore, slovakia, southafrica, spain, sweden, switzerland, taiwan, thailand, turkey, unitedkingdom, and venezuela.

Configuring Voice Dial Peers

Follow these steps to set up voice dial peers to support the local and remote stations. Not all possible commands are shown here. To learn more, see Voice, Video, and Home Applications Configuration Guide and Voice, Video, and Home Applications Command Reference for Cisco IOS Release 12.0.
Step

Command

Purpose
1
Router# configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
2
Router(config)# dial-peer voice number pots
Enter dial-peer configuration mode and define a local dial peer that will connect to the plain old telephone service (POTS) network.

number is one or more digits identifying the dial peer. Valid entries are from 1 to 2147483647.

pots indicates a peer using basic telephone service.
3
Router(config-dialpeer)# destination-pattern 
string [T]
Configure the dial peer's destination pattern so that the system can reconcile dialed digits with a telephone number.

string is a series of digits that specify the E.164 or private dialing plan phone number. Valid entries are the digits 0 through 9 and the letters A through D. The plus symbol (+) is not valid. The following special characters can be entered:

•The star character (*) that appears on standard touch-tone dial pads can be in any dial string but not as a leading character (for example, *650).

•The period (.) acts as a wildcard character.

•The comma (,) can be used only in prefixes and inserts a one-second pause.

When the timer (T) character is included at the end of the destination pattern, the system collects dialed digits as they are entered—until the interdigit timer expires (10 seconds, by default)—or the user dials the termination of end-of-dialing key (default is #).

Note The timer character must be a capital T.
4
Router(config-dialpeer)# prefix string
(Optional) Include a dial-out prefix that the system enters automatically instead of people dialing it.

string is a value from 0 to 9, and you can use a comma (,) to indicate a pause.

Note There are other digit manipulation commands available to handle such situations as prefixes for special services, ignoring some digits, and dialing into remote PBXs as though they are local.
5
Router(config-dialpeer)# port 
slot/port:ds0-group-no
This command associates the dial peer with a specific logical interface.

slot is the router location where the voice module is installed. Valid entries are from 0 to 3.

port indicates the voice interface card location. Valid entries are 0 or 1.

Each defined DS0 group number is represented on a separate voice port. This allows you to define individual DS0s on the digital E1 card.
6
Router(config)# dial-peer voice number voip
Enter dial-peer configuration mode and define a remote VoIP dial peer.

number is one or more digits identifying the dial peer. Valid entries are from 1 to 2147483647.

voip indicates a VoIP peer using voice encapsulation on the IP network.
7
Router(config-dialpeer)# codec {g711alaw | g711ulaw 
| g723ar53 | g723ar63 | g723r53 | g723r63 | g726r16 
| g726r24 | g726r32 | g728 | g729r8 [pre-ietf] | 
g729br8 } [bytes] 
The voice-card configuration codec complexity command sets the codec options that are available when you execute this command. See Step 3 of the "Configuring Voice Card and E1 Controller Settings" section.

If you do not set codec complexity, g729r8 with IETF bit-ordering is used.

If you set codec complexity to high, the following options are available:

•g711alaw—G.711 A Law 64,000 bps

•g711ulaw—G.711 u Law 64,000 bps

•g723ar53—G.723.1 Annex A 5,300 bps

•g723ar63—G.723.1 Annex A 6,300 bps

•g723r53—G.723.1 5,300 bps

•g723r63—G.723.1 6,300 bps

•g726r16—G.726 16,000 bps

•g726r24—G.726 24,000 bps

•g726r32—G.726 32,000 bps

•g728—G.728 16,000 bps

•g729r8---G.729 8,000 bps (default)

•g729br8—G.729 Annex B 8,000 bps

If you set codec complexity to medium, the following options are valid:

•g711alaw—G.711 A Law 64,000 bps

•g711ulaw—G.711 u Law 64,000 bps

•g726r16—G.726 16,000 bps

•g726r24—G.726 24,000 bps

•g726r32—G.726 32,000 bps

•g729r8—G.729 Annex A 8,000 bps

•g729br8—G.729 Annex B with Annex A 8,000 bps

The optional bytes parameter sets the number of voice data bytes per frame. Acceptable values are from 10 to 240 in increments of 10 (for example, 10, 20, 30, and so on). Any other value is rounded down (for example, from 236 to 230).

If you specify g729r8, then the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) bit-ordering is used. For interoperability with a Cisco 2600, 3600, or AS5300 router running a Cisco IOS release prior to Release 12.0(5)T or12.0(4)XH, you must specify the additional key word pre-ietf after g729r8.
8
Router(config-dialpeer)# vad
(Optional) This setting is enabled by default. It activates voice activity detection (VAD). VAD allows the system to reduce unnecessary voice transmissions caused by unfiltered background noise.
9
Router(config-dialpeer)# dtmf-relay [cisco-rtp] 
[h245-signal] [h245-alphanumeric]
(Optional) Dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF) describes the tone that sounds in response to a keypress on a touch-tone phone. DTMF tones are compressed at one end of a call and decompressed at the other end.

If a low-bandwidth codec, such as a G.729 or G.723, is used, the tones can sound distorted. The dtmf-relay command transports DTMF tones generated after call establishment out-of-band by using a method that transmits with greater fidelity than is possible in-band for most low-bandwidth codecs. Without DTMF relay, calls established with low-bandwidth codecs may have trouble accessing automated phone menu systems, such as voicemail and interactive voice response (IVR) systems.

A signaling method is supplied only if the remote end supports it, and the options are: Cisco proprietary (cisco-rtp), standard H.323 (h245-alphanumeric), and H.323 standard with signal duration (h245-signal).
10
Router(config-dialpeer)# fax-rate {2400 | 4800 | 
7200 | 9600 | 12000 | 14400 | disable | voice}
(Optional) Specify the transmission speed of a fax to be sent to this dial peer. disable turns off fax transmission capability, and voice specifies the highest possible fax speed supported by the voice rate.
11
Router(config-dialpeer)# destination-pattern 
string [T]
See Step 3 in this procedure.
12
Router(config-dialpeer)# session target 
{ipv4:destination-address | dns:[$s$. | $d$. | $e$. 
| $u$.] host-name}
Configure the IP session target for the dial peer.

ipv4:destination-address indicates IP address of the dial peer.

dns:host-name indicates that the domain name server will resolve the name of the IP address. Valid entries for this parameter are characters representing the name of the host device.

There are also wildcards available for defining domain names with the keyword by using source, destination, and dialed information in the host name. For complete command syntax information, see Voice, Video, and Home Applications Command Reference for Cisco IOS Release 12.0.
13
Router(config-dialpeer)# forward-digit [all ] 
default | extra | .. ]
Configure the interface to forward digits for voice calls.
14
Router(config-dialpeer)# huntstop 
Disable hunting by the interface for dial peers.
15
Router(config-dialpeer)# exit
Exit interface configuration.

Debug Commands

This section illustrates some of the EXEC mode debug commands that are useful when analyzing and troubleshooting your system. Note that important information appears in bold, and bold text preceded by the "<<" characters explains the process.

The debug isdn q931 command displays information about call setup and teardown of ISDN network connections (Layer 3) between the local router (user side) and the network.

The debug voip ccapi inout EXEC command traces the execution path through the call control API, which serves as the interface between the call-session application and the underlying network-specific software.

During the capabilities exchange shown in the command output, both sides agree on what compression to use, and the debug voip ccapi inout output helps you determine what each side is negotiating.

You can use the output from these command to understand how calls are being handled by the router. This command shows how a call flows through the system. By using this debug level, you can see the call setup and teardown operations performed on both the telephony and network call legs:

Modification

12.0(2)T

The command was introduced for the Cisco MC3810 multiservice access concentrator.

12.0(7)XK

The command was introduced for the Cisco 2600 and 3600 series with a different name and some keyword modifications.

Usage Guidelines

The pri-group command applies to the configuration of Voice over Frame Relay, Voice over ATM, and Voice over HDLC on the Cisco MC3810 multiservice concentrator and the Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Before you enter the pri-group command, you must specify an ISDN-PRI switch type and an E1 or T1 controller. Only one pri group can be configured on a controller.

Example

The following example configures ISDN-PRI on all timeslots of controller E1 1 on a Cisco 2600 series router:

Glossary

AAL—ATM Adaptation Layer. Service-dependent sublayer of the data link layer. The AAL accepts data from different applications and presents it to the ATM layer in the form of 48-byte ATM payload segments. AALs consist of two sublayers: convergence sublayer (CS) and segmentation and reassembly (SAR). AALs differ on the basis of the source-destination timing used, whether they use constant bit rate (CBR) or variable bit rate (VBR), and whether they are used for connection-oriented or connectionless mode data transfer. At present, the four types of AAL recommended by the ITU-T are AAL1, AAL2, AAL3/4, and AAL5.

AAL1—ATM adaptation layer 1. One of four AALs recommended by the ITU-T. AAL1 is used for connection-oriented, delay-sensitive services requiring constant bit rates, such as uncompressed video and other isochronous traffic.

AMI—alternate mark inversion. Line-code type used on T1 and E1 circuits. In AMI, zeros are represented by 01 during each bit cell, and ones are represented by 11 or 00, alternately, during each bit cell. AMI requires that the sending device maintain ones density. Ones density is not maintained independent of the data stream. Sometimes called binary coded alternate mark inversion.

ATM—Asynchronous Transfer Mode. International standard for cell relay in which multiple service types (such as voice, video, or data) are conveyed in fixed-length (53-byte) cells. Fixed-length cells allow cell processing to occur in hardware, thereby reducing transit delays. ATM is designed to take advantage of high-speed transmission media such as E3, SONET, and T3.

B8ZS—binary 8-zero substitution. Line-code type, used on T1 and E1 circuits, in which a special code is substituted whenever 8 consecutive zeros are sent over the link. This code is then interpreted at the remote end of the connection. This technique guarantees ones density independent of the data stream.

CAS—channel-associated signaling. Trunk signaling (for example, in a T1 line) in which control signals, such as those for synchronizing and bounding frames, are carried in the same channel along with voice and data signals.

CBR—constant bit rate. QoS class defined by the ATM Forum for ATM networks. CBR is used for connections that depend on precise clocking to ensure undistorted delivery.

CCS—common channel signaling. Trunk signaling (for example, using Primary Rate Interface) in which a control channel carries signaling for separate voice and data channels.

CES—circuit emulation service. Enables users to multiplex or concentrate multiple circuit emulation streams for voice and video with packet data on a single high-speed ATM link without a separate ATM access multiplexer.

CO—central office. Local telephone company office to which all local loops in a given area connect and in which circuit switching of subscriber lines occurs.

codec—Coder-decoder. Device that typically uses pulse code modulation to transform analog signals into a digital bit stream and digital signals back into analog.

DTMF—Dual-tone multifrequency. Use of two simultaneous voice-band tones for dialing (such as touch tone).

Drop and Insert—(also called TDM Cross-Connect) Allows DSO channels from one T1 or E1 facility to be digitally cross-connected to DS0 channels on another T1 or E1. Using this method, channel traffic is sent between a PBX and CO PSTN switch or other telephony device, so that some PBX channels are directed for long-distance service through the PSTN while the router compresses others for interoffice VoIP calls. In addition, Drop and Insert can cross-connect a telephony switch (from the CO or PSTN) to a channel bank for external analog connectivity.

DSP—digital signal processor, same as PVDM

E1—European digital carrier facility used for transmitting data through the telephone hierarchy. The transmission rate for E1 is 2.048 megabits per second (Mbps).

E&M—rEceive and transMit, or Ear and Mouth. Type of signaling originally developed for analog two-state voltage telephony using the ear and mouth leads; in digital telephony, uses two bits.

ESF—Extended Superframe. Framing type used on T1 circuits that consists of 24 frames of 192 bits each, with the 193rd bit providing timing and other functions. ESF is an enhanced version of SF format.

FXO—Foreign Exchange Office. A voice interface emulating a PBX trunk line to a switch or telephone equipment to a PBX extension interface.

FXS—Foreign Exchange Station. A voice interface for connecting telephone equipment, emulates the extension interface of a PBX or the subscriber interface for a switch.

IETF—Internet Engineering Task Force

ISDN—Integrated Services Digital Network. Communication protocol, offered by telephone companies, that permits telephone networks to carry data, voice, and other source traffic.

IVR—interactive voice response. Term used to describe systems that provide information in the form of recorded messages over telephone lines in response to user input in the form of spoken words or more commonly DTMF signaling. Examples include banks that allow you to check your balance from any telephone and automated stock quote systems.

packet—Logical grouping of information that includes a header containing control information and (usually) user data. Packets are most often used to refer to network layer units of data.

POTS—plain old telephone service

PDVM—packet data voice module

PSTN—Public Switched Telephone Network. General term referring to the variety of telephone networks and services in place worldwide.

QoS—quality of service. Measure of performance for a transmission system that reflects its transmission quality and service availability.

SF—Super Frame. Common framing type used on T1 circuits. SF consists of 12 frames of 192 bits each, with the 193rd bit providing error checking and other functions. SF is superseded by ESF, but is still widely used. Also called D4 framing.

SNMP—Simple Network Management Protocol. Network management protocol used almost exclusively in TCP/IP networks. SNMP provides a means to monitor and control network devices, and to manage configurations, statistics collection, performance, and security.

T1—Digital WAN carrier facility. T1 transmits DS 1-formatted data at 1.544 Mbps through the telephone switching network, using alternate mark inversion or B8ZS coding.

T1 trunk—Digital WAN carrier facility. See T1.

TDM—time-division multiplexing

Trunk—Physical and logical connection between two switches across which network traffic travels. A backbone is composed of a number of trunks.

UNI—User-Network Interface. ATM Forum specification that defines an interoperability standard for the interface between ATM-based products (a router or an ATM switch) located in a private network and the ATM switches located within the public carrier networks. Also used to describe similar connections in Frame Relay networks.

VAD—voice activity detection
