---

Revised on: July 15, 2010, OL-22328-02

Introduction

The Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch is a class-independent software switch (softswitch) that provides next generation integrated voice and data switching solutions for packet networks.

Release 7.0 focuses on broadband and cable providers in the emerging markets, by providing H.248 protocol features for line-side access support. Release 7.0 also includes functionalities to increase the scalability of BTS 10200 by implementing a 64-bit architecture, business features and functionalities for next generation VoIP networks, such as call pickup (CPU) and multiline hunt group (MLHG) enhancements, session initiation protocol (SIP) based enhancement such as compliance to SIPconnect standards, and so on.

This document describes the new features and enhancements in Release 7.0. Maintenance (Vxx) releases may be issued after a major release. Vxx releases include release notes only if new information is added. For more information about BTS 10200, refer to the documents available in the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch documentation page:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vcallcon/ps531/tsd_products_support_series_home.html

Warning Sun Explorer is installed as part of the Release 7.0 builds as a requirement from Sun Microsystems for resolving hardware issues, but is left disabled. Sun Explorer should not be enabled to run using cron because this is an untested and unsupported configuration. Sun Explorer is CPU intensive and may cause issues with the real-time processes running on active and standby BTS 10200 platforms. Sun Explorer should be run only when the BTS 10200 platform is OOS (for example, after a platform stop all command is executed).

64-bit architecture enhancements	This feature includes enhancement of some of the call processing modules and associated libraries to 64-bit architecture to facilitate support for large memory model.
Audit of CA/FS to CA/FS nodes	This feature provides the functionality to compare (audit) the IDX database on both the CA/FS nodes. The dbm_audit program is the executable file that user needs to execute on any EMS node to perform CA/FS to CA/FS IDX audit. This feature is executed from the Unix command shell on any EMS node. The executable file of this feature is named dbm_audit, and it is installed in the /opt/bts/bin directory on all BTS nodes. The audit report is generated in the /opt/ems/report directory on the EMS node. The following is the command usage: dbm_audit  -table <value1>  -platform <value2>  -type <value3> where the -table parameter can have the following values: •all •a static table name The "all" value is the default value if the -table parameter is not specified. where the -platform parameter can have the following values: •CA •FSAIN •FSPTC •"all" for all the above platforms. The "all" value is the default value if the -platform parameter is not specified. where the -type parameter can have the following values: •full •row_count The "row_count" value is the default value if the -type parameter is not specified.

If this field is NULL, data is not captured for the corresponding record. •173—Specifies the centrex-group identity of the subscriber on which the call terminates. If this field is NULL, data is not captured for the corresponding record.
	The following fields have been reserved for future use in CDR: •271—Specifies the trunk context associated with an incoming call. •272—Specifies the trunk context associated with an outgoing call. •273—Specifies the ID of a VPN group. Other fields that have been reserved for future use are 276, 277, 278, 279, and 280. For more details on the new and modified fields, see the "Billing Enhancements" section.
Call Pickup	This feature allows a service provider to create a Call Pickup (CPU) group to facilitate a subscriber of a CPU group to pick up a call intended for any other subscriber in the group. The subscriber must dial the feature access code to answer a call on another line. Note that a subscriber can pick up a call only if the call is within the same CPU group. This feature is available to centrex and SIP centrex subscribers.
H.248 Line-Side Access Control	This feature enables BTS 10200 to use H.248 line-side signaling to communicate with H.248 protocol-based network elements. This feature also enables BTS 10200 to provide protocol interworking between H.248 and SIP. The support for H.248 Protocol renders the necessary protocol interworking to complete voice-over-packet calls. The H.248 Line-Side Access Control provides Class-5 features to subscribers behind H.248 media gateways (MGWs) interfacing with BTS 10200 using the H.248 protocol. In Release 7.0, the following features are supported as part of the H.248 Line-Side Access Control: Features and Functionalities: •Basic calls originating from and terminating to subscribers using H.248 protocol. •Codec selection and negotiation. Codecs that are currently supported in BTS 10200 are also supported in the H.248 network. •Codec upspeed due to feature interaction such as call waiting, three-way call, and so on. •Ringback on connection from terminating subscriber, and local ringback from originating subscriber. •DSCP marking H.248 signaling messages. •Redundant Call Agent with virtual IP address as seen by the gateways. •Support for redundant MGWs with the same configured IP address. •Audit for endpoint state synchronization after failover. •Media Gateway keep-alive functionality. •DTMF relay/passthrough support –Enabling passthrough using G.711 –Using RFC-2833 (implicit authorization) specific to GW implementation. –Using RFC-2833 (call agent authorization). •Fax and Modem—GW autonomous passthrough (supported only if both gateways can automatically switch to G.711 protocol). •Text/TDD—GW autonomous passthrough (supported only if both gateways can automatically switch to G.711 protocol). •Call agent overload handling. •VoIP metrics—RTP/analog port metrics. •Gateway DNS caching. •LCFO/OSI signaling support for H.248 endpoints.
	Protocol-specific features: •Megaco/H.248 protocol to communicate with access gateways using line-side signaling and bearer path management. •H.248 version 2 capabilities and procedures as specified in ITU-T H.248.1 standard, for example, context, descriptors, packages, and so on. Audit capability command and topology descriptors are not supported in Release 7.0. •Text encoding of H.248/Megaco protocol (as described in H.248.1 standard, Annex B). •Support for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as transport protocol (as specified in H.248.1 standard, Annex D). •Automatic calculation of timeout for outstanding transactions based on the methods suggested in Annex D.1.3, D.1.4, and D.1.5 of H.248 standard. •Guarantee consistent operation of the Media Gateway (ordering of commands, and so on) as defined in H.248.1 standard, section 9.1. •Megaco/H.248 error and reason code as specified in ITU H.248.8 standard.
	Subscriber and Network features: •Anonymous Call Rejection (ACR) •Caller ID for –Calling Number Delivery (CND) –Calling Number Delivery Blocking (CNDB) –Calling Name Delivery •Call waiting (single-connection based) •Three-way calling (single-connection based) with external Media Server. •Call Forwarding Busy (CFB) •Call Forwarding Unconditional (CFU) •Call Forwarding No Answer (CFNA) •Call Hold (single-connection based) and other centrex features (CND, CNDB, CFU, CFB, CFNA, CW, CT, TWC, ACR, DND, COS). •Call Transfer (CT) (single-connection based). •Class of Service (COS) screening •Do Not Disturb (DND) •Vertical Service Codes (VSCs). (The valid formats for VSC ASCII strings are listed in the VSC table in the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch CLI Database. To view the current VSC values provisioned on your system, use the show vsc CLI command. To provision VSCs, see the VSC provisioning procedure in the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Provisioning Guide.) •Voicemail (VM) and Voicemail Always (VMA) •Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) and Visual Message Waiting Indicator (VMWI) •Announcements for H.248 subscribers are provided using MGCP-Controlled Announcement Servers. •Multiline Hunt Group (MLHG) •Centrex group For details on the features listed above, see the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Network and Subscriber Feature Descriptions Guide.
	CALEA features - •Reporting call data to the delivery function (DF) server. Support for PacketCable 1.5 specifications based CALEA operation for full call identifying information (call data), as implemented for other signaling protocols. •Reporting call content to DF server. Support for capturing call-content is through service independent intercept (SII) architecture. For more information about SII architecture, refer to the "General Description of Lawful Intercept Implementation" section in the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Network and Subscriber  Feature Description Guide.
	Protocol interworking between •H.248 subscriber and H.248 subscriber. •H.248 subscriber and SIP subscriber. •H.248 subscriber and SIP trunk. •SIP subscriber and H.248 subscriber. •SIP trunk and H.248 subscriber. •H.248 subscriber to MGCP based Announcement Server. The H.248 Line-Side Access Control feature module document can be accessed from the following page: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/bts/7.0/feature/module/H248_Support_r70.html
Identification of Business Digital Voice Subscribers (both NCS and SIP) in billing record	This feature enables a service provider to identify in a billing record if a call is made from a business subscriber or a residential subscriber. To identify the subscriber type, a new sub_type token, which can be set to either BUSINESS or RESIDENTIAL, has been added in the subscriber table. In Addition, two fields have been added in billing record namely, originating_sub_type (field number 266) and terminating_sub_type (field number 267). These fields identify the originating and terminating subscriber type, respectively.
Enhanced MLHG feature	The following enhancements have been made to the MLHG feature: •Hunt for available terminals when the currently ringing terminal is not answered for a configured period. •Call rollover to voicemail when the last called terminal in MLHG group does not answer or is busy. Note that voicemail must be configured for the last terminal for this feature to be enabled. Note In Release 7.0, the above MLHG enhancements are not supported for H.248 subscribers.
Naming character expansion from 16 to 32 characters	This feature enables a user to use up to 32 characters to name the identifiers (ID) in the following tables: •POP •LSA •LSA_PROFILE The following commands refer to POP_ID token in CLI. •POLICY_POP •SUBSCRIBER_PROFILE •TRUNK_GRP The following commands refer to the LSA_ID token in CLI: •POP •SUBSCRIBER_PROFILE
SIP Connect Standards Compliance	This feature enables BTS 10200 to comply with SIPconnect standards. SIPconnect is an industry-wide, standards-based approach to direct IP peering between SIP-enabled IP PBXs and VoIP service provider networks. For more information on SIPconnect, see the SIPconnect forum page at: http://www.sipforum.org/sipconnect
Service impacting commands restricted to authorized users in CLI	This feature restricts the use of the following service commands, and enables the authorized users to run these commands only with the ciscouser login: •download database •delete transaction_queue •change db_size
Third-party software tool version support	The following versions of third-party tools are supported and used in Release 7.0 of BTS 10200: •JRE version 6u7 (i.e 1.6.0_07-b06) •Xerces 2.9.1 •ECS 1.4.2 •Apache 2.2.8 •PHP 5.0.4
Treatment of AMR and EVRC codecs in BTS 10200	This feature treats unrecognized codecs such as AMR and EVRC to be passed transparently by BTS 10200 during codec negotiation. Support for AMR and EVRC is limited to SIP. AMR and EVRC is not supported in conjunction with MGCP (including NCS and TGCP), H.323 and H248. Note that Call Admission Control (CAC) or Quality of Service (QoS) calculations are not performed corresponding to these codecs. These codecs cannot be provisioned as QoS codecs. An unrecognized codec that is passed to an MGCP (or TGCP or NCS) or H.248 endpoint or returned by an MGCP (or TGCP or NCS) or H.248 endpoint as part of an AuditEndpoint response is likely to be ignored.
Use of Flash button or hookswitch to connect to a waiting call when centrex subscribers have both CW and CHD features	This feature allows a centrex subscriber to connect to a waiting call using the Flash button or hookswitch, without having to dial the vertical service code (VSC) for CHD.
