Modification

12.1(5)XM

This command was introduced on the Cisco 3660.

12.2(4)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)T.

12.2(2)XB

The slot keyword was replaced by the nm keyword and the wic keyword and the wic-slot argument were added.

12.2(8)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T.

12.2(15)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T with support for the Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, and Cisco 3745. Clocks can be synchronized on two ports. The aim keyword was added. The nm keyword was replaced by the slot keyword.


Usage Guidelines

This command is used for ATM segmentation and reassembly or digital signal processing and Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, and Cisco 3745 routers.

This command applies to any network module with T1/E1 controllers to provide clocks from a central source (MIX module for the Cisco 3660) to the network module and to the port on the network module. Then that port can be selected as the clock source with the network-clock-select command to supply clock to other ports or network modules that choose to participate in network clocking with the network-clock-participate command. This command synchronizes the clocks for two ports.

On the Cisco 3700 series, you must use the network-clock-participate command and either the wic wic-slot keyword and argument or the slot slot-number keyword and argument.


Note If the AIM takes its clock signals from a T1 or E1 controller, it is mandatory to use the network-clock-select and network-clock-participate commands for ATM. The clocks for the ATM and voice interfaces do not need to be synchronous, but improved voice quality may result if they are.



Note The only VWICs that can participate in network clocking are digital T1/E1 packet voice trunk network modules (NM-HDV), and Fast Ethernet network modules (NM-2W, NM-1FE. and NM-2FE).


Examples

The following example configures the network module in slot 5 to participate in network clocking on a Cisco 3660 with a MIX module:

network-clock-participate slot 5
network-clock-select 1 e1 

The following example on a Cisco 3700 series router specifies that the AIM participates in network clocking and selects port E1 0/1 to provide the clock signals.

Router(config)# network-clock-participate wic 0
Router(config)# network-clock-participate aim 0
Router(config)# network-clock-select 2 E1 0/1

The following example on a Cisco 3660 specifies the slot number that participates in network clocking and selects port E1 5/0:

Router(config)# network-clock-participate slot 5
Router(config)# network-clock-select 1 E1 5/0

12.2(15)T

This command was implemented on the Cisco 2600XM, Cisco 2691, Cisco 3725, and Cisco 3745.


Usage Guidelines

When an active clock source fails, the system chooses the next lower priority clock source specified by this command. When a higher-priority clock becomes available, the system automatically reselects the higher-priority clock source.

Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3660, and Cisco 3700 series

This command is used on Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 2600XM with AIMs installed or on the Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, or Cisco 3745 with Multiservice Interchange (MIX) modules installed. This command names a controller to provide clocking signals to the backplane, which then provides the names to all the network modules that are participating in network clocking.

Cisco MC3810

This command applies to Voice over Frame Relay, Voice over ATM, and Voice over HDLC on the Cisco MC3810. Use the network-clock-select command to establish the clock-selection priority when there are multiple sources of line (network) clocking in a Cisco MC3810. Possible sources of line clocking for the Cisco MC3810 are the BRI voice module (BVM), the multiflex trunk module (MFT), and a serial port configured for clock rate line.


Note If the BRI backup port (BRI 0) is installed and becomes active, it automatically recovers network clock for as long as it remains active. However, you can not give port BRI 0 a clock-selection priority.


Examples

Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3660, and Cisco 3700 series

The following example shows how to select the controller in slot 5, port 1, to provide the clock at priority 3 on a Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 2600XM, Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, or Cisco 3745:

network-clock-select 3 t1 5/1

Cisco MC3810

The following example sets the priority of four network clock sources. When the clock source with the highest priority (controller T1 0) fails, the Cisco MC3810 switches the clock source to the second highest priority (controller T1 1).

network-clock-select 1 T1 0
network-clock-select 2 T1 1
network-clock-select 3 serial 0
network-clock-select 4 system

The following example sets a possible clock selection priority in a Cisco MC3810 with a BRI voice module (BVM) installed:

network-clock-select 1 T1 0 
network-clock-select 2 bvm 
network-clock-select 3 serial 0 
network-clock-select 4 system

This command was introduced on the Cisco 3600 series.

12.2(13)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T and implemented on platforms that support the extended G.168 echo canceller (EC):

Cisco 1700 series, Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 2600XM, Cisco 3600 series, Cisco 3700 series, Cisco 7200 series, Cisco 7500 series, Cisco ICS7750, Cisco MC3810, and Cisco VG200


Usage Guidelines

The function enabled by this command is also generally known as residual echo suppression. This command is associated with the echo canceller operation. The echo-cancel enable command must be enabled for this command to take effect. Use this command to shut off any signal if no near-end speech is detected.

The Cisco G.165 EC is enabled by default with the echo suppressor turned off. The echo suppressor can be turned on only when the default Cisco G.165 EC is used. The default echo suppressor command is still visible when the extended EC is selected, but it does not do anything.

Enabling the non-linear command normally improves performance, although some users might perceive truncation of consonants at the end of sentences when this command is enabled.

Examples

The following example enables nonlinear call processing on the Cisco 3600 series router:

voice-port 1/0/0

12.2(2)XT

This command was implemented on the Cisco 1750 and Cisco 1751.

12.2(8)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T and was implemented on the Cisco 3725 and Cisco 3745.

12.2(8)T1

This command was implemented on the Cisco 2600-XM and Cisco 2691.

12.2(11)T

This command was implemented on the Cisco 1760.


Usage Guidelines

This command configures a valid number for the Cisco IP phone. The secondary keyword allows you to associate a second telephone number with an ephone-dn so that the Cisco IP phone line can be called by dialing either the main or secondary phone number. The secondary number may contain wildcards; for example, 50.. (number 50 followed by wildcards). The no-reg keyword specifies an E.164 number in the dial peer to not register to the gatekeeper. If you do not specify either both or primary after the no-reg keyword, only the secondary number is not registered.

Examples

The following example sets 5001 as the primary extension number for a Cisco IP phone, and 0 as the secondary number. This allows the telephone number 5001 to act as a regular extension number and also to act as the operator line such that callers who dial 0 are routed to the phone line with extension number 5001.

Router(config)# ephone-dn 1
Router(config-ephone-dn)# number 5001 secondary 0

The following example sets 5001 as the primary extension number for a Cisco IP phone, and "500." (the number 500 followed by a decimal point) as the secondary number. This allows any calls to extension numbers from range 5000 to 5009 to be routed to extension 5001 if the actual extension number dialed cannot be found. For example, IP phones may be active in the system with lines that correspond to 5001, 5002, 5004, 5005, and 5009. A call to 5003 or 5006 to 5009 would be unable to locate a phone with extensions 5003 or 5006 to 5008, so the call would be routed to extension 5001.

Router(config-ephone-dn)# number 5001 secondary 500.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to define how to expand a particular set of numbers (for example, a telephone extension number) into a particular destination pattern. With this command, you can bind specific extensions and expanded numbers together by explicitly defining each number, or you can define extensions and expanded numbers using variables. You can also use this command to convert seven-digit numbers to numbers containing less than seven digits.

Use a period (.) as a variable or wildcard, representing a single number. Use a separate period for each number that you want to represent with a wildcard—for example, if you want to replace four numbers in an extension with wildcards, type in four periods.

Examples

The following example expands the extension number 55541 to the number 14085555541:

num-exp 55541 14085555541

The following example expands all five-digit extensions beginning with 5 such that the 5 is replaced with the digits 1408555 at the beginning of the extension number:

num-exp 5.... 1408555....
