Introduction
Interoperability between the old world TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) networks and the new world packet networks is an essential part of the technology adoption life cycle for packet networks. This release of the Cisco PGW 2200 PSTN Gateway provides the bridge between the legacy public switched telephone network (PSTN) and next-generation packet networks - supporting SS7 interconnect for dial and H.323 and SIP networks and intelligent call control and routing for media gateway control protocol (MGCP), session initiation protocol (SIP) and H.323 networks.
The Cisco PGW 2200 provides a consistent and unified interconnection that can handle dialup services, MGCP, SIP, and H.323, as well as future standards. The PGW 2200 allows service providers to deploy and operate multiple network solutions while maintaining a stable interconnection to the PSTN.
Platform Support
For a list of supported platforms refer to the following documents:
•
Cisco Media Gateway Controller Hardware Installation Guide
Chapter 1, Table 1-1, Cisco MGC Host Configurations, at the following url:•
Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide
(Chapter 1) at the following url:Software Required
For a list of required software, refer to Chapter 1 of the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide at the following url:
Required Swap Space
For the Cisco MGC software, you need to partition 4 GB of swap space. Setting swap space at installation is recommended; however, you can change swap space at a later date by adding a swap file or repartitioning the swap space using the format menu (for example, reassigning how many cylinders are in each partition). The swap space requirement is determined by the amount of traffic. As traffic increases, you should use the top command in UNIX to see how much swap space is being used; you should then decide if more is needed. You can use the MML command rtrv-ne-health to obtain information from the UNIX top from within MML.
Host Hardware Requirements
Host Minimum Server Requirements
Refer to the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Hardware Installation Guide for the host minimum hardware requirements. Before using the minimum hardware configuration, consult with your Cisco representative to determine the hardware that will give you the best performance results based on your network configuration, proposed traffic, and desired processing power.
Media Gateway Hardware Requirements
Table 1 lists URLs for release notes that document media gateways.
Local Area Network Switch
Your application might use one or more local area network (LAN) switches from the Cisco Catalyst Switch family to connect the Cisco MGC host to the MGWs and to the Cisco SLTs.
Note
User documentation refers to the Cisco Catalyst 5500 switch family (NEBS-compliant). The Cisco Catalyst 2900 XL is another NEBS-compliant LAN switch that can be used for a small configuration, but current MGC user documentation does not address the Cisco Catalyst 2900 XL. Refer to the Cisco Catalyst 2900 XL documentation for information about this switch.
Note
A LAN switch is not provided with the Cisco MGC.
Supported Features
The features listed in Table 2 were inherited from earlier releases of the Cisco MGC Software, and are still supported in Release 9.3(2).
Cisco MGC Management
Table 3 provides an overview of the management components of the Cisco MGC.
Switching Protocols Supported
The Cisco SS7 PRI Gateway solution supports the SS7 and ISDN PRI (ANSI, ITU, and ETSI).

nn—indicates the protocol family
vvv—indicates the version level of the patch
Note
For more information on determining your patch level refer to the Software Patches section (page 35) of this document.
New Features in This Release
Israeli ISUP
This featurette (CSCdy26193) adds support for the Israeli ISUP based on the existing base implementation for the ETS 300 356 standard. A new MDO (ISUPV2_ISRAEL.mdo/ISUPV2_ISRAEL.so) has been created. Major deviations from the existing base implementations are:
•
Support for charging mechanism defined in Israel ISUP; this involves handling of new charge related messages and parameters.
•
Support to hide the visibility of unsupported messages and parameters in base implementation.
•
Changes to accommodate the maximum number of circuits in Circuit group blocking and Circuit Group Reset Messages (31 instead of 32 in base version).
•
Additional support for rerouting requirements specific to Israeli ISUP.
•
Since the charge messages are ignored in Type A and transparently passed in Type B, the measurements of these messages are ignored for the current implementation.
Note
This featurette was introduced in this release in patches CSCOnn003.
Support for ANSI 2000
This featurette (CSCeb22888) adds ANSI 2000 ISUP support on the PGW for transit scenarios. This includes switched, call-control solution (using EISUP), and nailed, signaling mode solutions using GTD.
The following changes were made:
•
Support added for Application Transport Message (for transit scenario)
•
Support added for Segmentation messages
•
Support added for Parameter Compatibility and message compatibility procedures
•
Support added for the following parameters:
–
Application Transport
–

–
Redirect Counter
–
Redirect Forward Info
–
Redirect Status
•
Support added to EISUP and GTD for above parameters and messages
•
Support added for new cause codes
•
The Pre-release message is not supported (not required)
Note
There are no changes to circuit related procedures from the base ANSI 1995.
Note
Since number portability related changes are already supported by the ANSI implementation (ANSI 1995) in PGW, no changes have been made to those parameters/procedures.
The following two new mdl files were created for ANSI 2000:
•
ansiSS7_2k.mdl
•
ansiSS7_2k_type.mdl
Calling Party Number (CgPN) Incomplete Indicator
This featurette (CSCec06961) provides a configurable option to set the Calling Party Number Incomplete Indicator field within IAM to Incomplete for all calls. A new sigPath property (*.cgpnForceIncomplete) has been created to enable this functionality. This property is read by the protocol when packing the Calling Party Number parameter in an outgoing message. If the property is set, then the protocol overrides the Call Context value so that the Incomplete Indicator is Incomplete (1).
Valid values are: 0-(default) (disable function and allow the protocol to set its value normally) and 1-(incomplete)
This newly patched property is only available in properties.dat in the /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/CONFIG_LIB/new directory. To enable this featurette on existing 9.3(2) and 9.4(1) configurations, do one of the following:
•
Provision from new
•
Contact TAC to have properties.dat (located in /opt/CiscoMGC/etc and /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/active_link) edited. This requires a switchover in order for the system to read the new property.
Note
Customers upgrading to release 9.5(1) and above can provision this property normally from MML.
Note
This featurette only affects the ISUP protocols that use the Incomplete Indicator as part of the Calling Party Number parameter. These include all variants of: Q721, Q761, Q767, and EISUP.
Note
This featurette was introduced in this release in patches CSCOnn027 and CSCOgs024.
Netra 20+ and ce Ethernet PCI card support
This featurette (CSCeb42446 and CSCeb42459) provides support for the Netra 20+ platform along with the ce Ethernet interface PCI card.
PCI & MCI Support for UK ISUP
This featurette (CSCea43347) enhances the UK ISUP featurette (on the PGW 2200) to support sending and receiving the Parameter Compatibility Information (PCI) and Message Compatibility Information (MCI).
Overdecadic Digit Support for Finnish ISUP
This featurette (CSCea14531) extends the Finnish ISUP to add 32 digit and overdecadic digit (A-F) support.
Note
This featurette was added in patch CSCOnn010.
Note
32 digit support has been removed from ISUPV2_FINNISH96. This option was removed from this software release in patch CSCOnn026. For more information, refer to DDTS ticket number CSCec30533 and to the Remove 32 Digit Support from ISUPV2_FINNISH96 section of Known Issues and Operational Recommendations in this document.
Nigerian ISUP
This featurette (CSCea64093) implements the ISUP variant for Nigeria. The Nigerian ISUP featurette supports the services defined in Q.767 and additionally supports the transit of the following supplementary services messages:
•
Call forwarding unconditional (CFU)
•
Call forwarding busy (CFB)
•
Call forwarding on no reply (CFNR)
The following mdl files were created for the Nigerian ISUP:
•
q767_nigerian.mdl—contains the source code.
•
q767_nigerian_type.mdl—contains the type definitions for various messages, parameters, etc.
The following new messages were implemented for the Nigerian ISUP:
•
Charge Information Message (CRG)
•
Trunk Offer Message (TOF)
The following new parameters were implemented for the Nigerian ISUP:
•
Charge Band Number—valid values are:
–
000 (no charge)
–
001-058 (periodic pulse metering or multi metering)
–
059-060 (spare)
–
061-070 (initial multi metering)
–
071-080 (periodic pulse metering)
–
081-100 (spare)
–
101-110 (initial multi metering)
–
111-255 (spare)
•
Number of Charging Units—valid values are: 0 (spare) and 1 (number of charging units)
•
National Forward Call Indicator
Note
This featurette was introduced in patch CSCOnn023.
Configurable Charge Number Change Request
This featurette (CSCeb37486) allows outgoing IAM messages to be populated with a configurable charge number for calls originating in the VoIP network.
Complete the following procedure to implement this featurette:
Step 1
Stop the MGC software on the standby system (hereafter referred to as MGC#1).
Step 2
Using an editor, such as vi, add the *.VoipOrigChargeNum parameter to XECfgParm.dat. This parameter should be equal to the desired charge number. For example:
*.VoipOrigChargeNum=7034843000Step 3
Restart the MGC software.
Step 4
Switchover so that MGC#1 is the active system.
Step 5
Stop the MGC software on the standby system (MGC#2).
Step 6
Using an editor, such as vi, add the *.VoipOrigChargeNum parameter to XECfgParm.dat.
Step 7
Restart the MGC software.
Note
The *.VoipOrigChargeNum parameter must be added to XECfgParm.dat before restarting the MGC software. Cisco recommends adding the parameter after loading patches CSCOnn020 and CSCOgs017.
Note
The *.VoipOrigChargeNum parameter must be added to XECfgParm.dat on both the active and standby systems. This parameter will not be migrated.
Note
If you do not want to implement this functionality you must either delete the property from XECfgParm.dat or comment it out. Setting the property to zero does not stop the replacement of the calling party number.
CDR Enhancements for 1110 CDB Featurette
This featurette (CSCea23294) adds the following new fields to the existing 1110 CDB:
•
Origination Point Code (OPC)
•
Destination Point Code (DPC)
•
Circuit Identification Code (CIC)
For more information refer to Table 14 New/Enhanced Tags.
Note
For proper operation of this featurette, both the active and standby systems must have patches CSCOnn011 and CSCOgs010 installed.
Remove Total Number of Dialplans Limitation Featurette
This featurette (CSCdz39481) removes the limitation of the number of dialplans that can be supported on the PGW 2200.
•
You can configure up to 98 dialplans provided only installed and mml configured files are present in your /opt/CiscoMGC/CONFIG_LIB/CFG_<dirname> directory.
•
During patch upgrade you must ensure that there are no more than 127 files in your /opt/CiscoMGC/CONFIG_LIB/CFG_<dirname> directory before upgrading the active and standby systems to the same patch level.
The following new error messages have been created:
Global Screening Database Table
This featurette (CSCuk37673) provides a single global screening table that is accessible from every dialplan without specific definition. It allows you to handle screening from a single database table instead of using multiple copies of screening tables by constructing a global database with a customer group id (GLBL) that can be searched from any dialplan.
Note
For existing customers (customers with existing screening entries), the file digitanalysis.dat must be updated so that the engine acknowledges the new (GLBL.dialplan) dialplan file.
Note
The prov-export command has been modified to extract global screening data (if any exists) from the TimesTen database after all dialplans are processed.
Global screening data is stored in the following files:
•
GLBL.awhite
•
GLBL.ablack
•
GLBLbwhite
•
GLBLbblack
Screening includes the following new values:
•
dw1 value 3—global whitelist screening
•
dw1 value 4—global blacklist screening
Note
These values indicate that the global database table is being used to process a screening request. The customer group id submitted to TimesTen is GLBL regardless of the customer group id of the active dialplan. These values are verified during provisioning validation.
Note
If the data word value indicates that global screening is used, then the current customer group id is ignored and the request is submitted with the customer group id of GLBL.
Overdecadics Support in SSUTR2 (Q767_RUSS)
This featurette (CSCdz07399) provides overdecadics support for ITU Cause 14.
New Log Types Window in Log Viewer
This featurette (CSCdz01440) gives you quicker access to the different log types. A new window, File Type, has been added to Toolkit. The File Type window allows you to select the mml or platform log that you want to search.
Configurable ISUP Timers
This featurette (CSCdv04363) enables you to modify the settings of the local ISUP timers. Other timers cannot be changed.
Note
If a specified timer value is out-of-range or null, the default value for that timer (per specification) is used.
The default values and valid ranges for each of the timers can be found in the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Provisioning Guide at the following url:
A list of the configurable ISUP timers and their associated protocols and the procedure for modifying and verifying the values used for the ISUP timers can be found in the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Operations, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting Guide at the following url:
SIP to SIP Calling (Hairpinning)
This featurette (CSCdx12460) allows the PGW 2200 to support the network clearing house concept for SIP-to-SIP calls. SIP-to-SIP calling includes SIP-to-SIP calls on the same PGW 2200 and SIP-to-SIP calls that traverse between PGWs over EISUP. The SIP-SIP calls can traverse EISUP for basic calls.
The PGW 2200 acts as a proxy in the network. It stays in the loop of signaling, using the Record-Route header for billing purposes. As a proxy function, SIP messages are not modified; only the Via and Route headers. SIP-to-SIP calls are preserved through failover.
For more information on SIP-to-SIP calling refer to the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Operations, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting Guide at the following url:
Seamless Upgrade
This featurette provides seamless software upgrade/downgrade on the MGC Host. Existing services, such as active calls, sigpath states, and provisioning information are not impacted. The following restrictions apply to this featurette:
•
Some MML provisioning commands are restricted during software upgrade (based on software releases), for example, the PROV-STA and PROV-SYNC commands.
•
Other non-session oriented MML provisioning commands, (TimeTens related) are restricted during software upgrade (7.4(11) and 7.4(12) releases only).
Table 6 lists the minimum patch level that must be installed on your system before using the seamless upgrade feature.
Note
The latest version of a patch is always required. Refer to CCO to determine the latest patch version available.
CautionWhen migrating from release 9.2(2) to release 9.3(2), you must backup your /opt/SW/ directory and then remove the files located in that directory before performing the upgrade. For more information, refer to DDTS ticket number CSCea04008.
Advice of Charge Support of the Charge Generation Point
This featurette (CSCdx30151) validates received information and sends an APM message with positive or negative charging acknowledgement information (CRGA) back to the succeeding exchange or network when the PGW2200's Terminating Call Control (TCC) side of a call receives an APM message with the charging tariff information (CRGT), the add-on charging information (AOCRG), or the charging acknowledgement information (CRGA) from a succeeding exchange or network.
Additionally, if the APP parameter received in another backward message (ACM, ANM...) contains charging information in its EAI octets, then the same validation and acknowledgement takes place. The TCC side's protocol is the German ISUP.
This featurette requests the capability to act as a CGP only to the extent of verifying that the Charging/Add-on Tariff Information (CRGT / AOCRG) message has the correct syntax and that its values are within range and send an acknowledgement back to the CDP. If the information supplied in the APP is incorrect, the PGW 2200 sends a negative acknowledgement. This will allow the PGW 2200 to pass German interconnect tests.
Note
The actual charging of the calling subscriber is not based on the information from the CRGT. Charging is generated by the local services call control.
H.323 Call Forwarding Support
This featurette (CSCdx30169) is a portion of the overall requirement to meet German SS7 interconnect certification. It defines the H.323 Call Forwarding support for the PGW-HSI via an Application gatekeeper partner interaction. It uses GTD to transport the call forwarding signaling elements between the H.323 Gatekeeper and the PGW.
To support the function of call forwarding, BUSY, NO REPLY and UNCONDITIONAL, in the H323 network, the PGW HSI supports some new parameters and messages including the support of GTD to pass information to and from the H323 network.
Note
This featurette was coded in anticipation of the feature being added to H.323. It is not usable until the corresponding H.323 development is complete.
Range Checking of Properties
This featurette (CSCdx12503):
•
provides basic validation when entering LinkSet, SigPath, and TrunkGroup properties. It verifies that property data is within specified ranges. The current implementation verifies the type (string or int), but does no centralized bounds checking.
•
simplifies the process of adding properties to VSPT. It provides the information to automate the checking of integer ranges and provides a list of strings allowed for a given property.
•
relocates the reading/writing of properties.dat from the POL to the DA in order to have one mechanism for accessing the file.
Note
Existing user configurations that have properties that are not valid will not be impacted until changed; validation is done only as data is entered or modified. Data is stored to match the case of the properties and values but will be matched in a case insensitive manner.
New Package—CSCOga005.pkg
To meet requirements of the Range Checking of Properties feature and the need for an Oracle/XML parser, package CSCoga005.pkg has been added. Two directories, nlsdata and mesg, have been added under CiscoMGC/local.
Note
Files contained in the nlsdata and mesg directories should not be handled by the user.
Improved SIP Failover Support
This featurette (CSCdw81250) uses a single IP address (and Domain Name) for SIP signaling. On failover, the newly active host activates the SIP IP address and the previously active host deactivates the SIP IP address.
This featurette assumes that the ipAddrLocalA local address defined in XECfgParm.dat is the same as IP_Addr1 local address. It also assumes ipAddrLocalB local address is the same as IP_Addr2 local address. The MGC_Setup program always configures IP_Addr1 equal to ipAddrLocalA and IP_Addr2 equal to ipAddrLocalB. This convention should be followed when configuring IP addresses.
CautionDo not use IP_Addr3 and IP_Addr4 for SESSIONSET objects of TYPE equal to BSMV0 or SIPLNK objects.
Dual CLI Interworking With VoIP Network (Switched)
This featurette (CSCdx05882) (in cases where the VoIP network endpoints only support a single CLI) provides the option for the PGW 2200 in a switched configuration to replace the Calling Party Number parameter with the information from the Generic Number (Additional Calling Party Number) when interworking to an H.323 or SIP network.
A configurable property for sigpath/trunkgrp is used to indicate if the Dual CLI feature is supported. If this property says supporting dual CLI, and the Additional Calling Party Number is presented in the Generic Number parameter of an incoming IAM message, then the Additional Calling Party Number is used as the Calling Party Number and is passed to the access network. This is applicable to all ITU ISUP variants that support the generic number parameter.
Dual CLI Interworking With VoIP Network (Nailed)
This featurette (CSCdw70479) (in cases where the VoIP network endpoints only support a single CLI) provides the option for the PGW 2200 in a nailed configuration to replace the Calling Party Number parameter with the information from the Generic Number (Additional Calling Party Number) when interworking to an H.323 or SIP network.
A configurable property for sigpath/trunkgrp is used to indicate if the Dual CLI feature is supported. If this property says supporting dual CLI, and the Additional Calling Party Number is presented in the Generic Number parameter of an incoming IAM message, then the Additional Calling Party Number is used as the Calling Party Number and is passed to the access network. This is applicable to all ITU ISUP variants that support the generic number parameter.
Support for Individual Supervision Messages
This featurette (CSCdx44266) allows you to configure the PGW to send group or individual circuit supervision messages to a DPC. The following circuit supervision messages are impacted:
•
Circuit Blocking
•
Circuit Reset
•
Circuit Unblocking
•
Circuit Query
This featurette uses the SigPath property CGBA2 which has a default value of 0.
0—PGW sends Group Circuit Supervision Messages to indicate the range of circuits affected by the action in the message.
1—PGW sends Individual Circuit Supervision Messages to indicate the range of circuits affected by the action in the message.
Note
If the CGBA2 property is set to 1, range is not allowed in query-cic MML command.
Note
The CGBA2 property does not affect SigPaths that do not support group circuit supervision messages, for example, TUP, BTNUP, ISDNPRI, and EISUP.
Note
The CGBA2 property has no impact on the ability of the PGW to receive and process both group and individual circuit supervision messages.

Allow Multiple PCIs in All Protocols
Previously, if the PGW 2200 received a message with more than one PCI parameter, an error was generated and the call was dropped. This featurette (CSCdx60152) modifies the PGW 2200 to allow multiple PCIs in a message for all protocols that support PCI. Only the first PCI is used, all other PCIs are ignored.
Invite Without Session Description Protocol
This featurette (CSCdx83968) provides the following SIP enhancements:
•
Support for Invite (or re-invite) without Session Description Protocol (SDP). Includes accepting the SDP in a subsequent 200 OK or ACK message. This feature allows a B2BUA connected to a PGW 2200 to originate and transfer calls to support features such as click to dial.
•
Support for Serial 18x response with or without SDP. The PGW 2200 can interwork with a B2BUA executing call forward no answer from devices that require remote ringback to devices that support local ringback or announcements.
•
Support for 302 response with a contact (first SIP URL) having a SIP URL other than the PGW domain name. The PGW issues a new invite to the SIP URL without going through number analysis.
Note
The Session Description Protocol is used to pass information between the Media Gateways so they know how to talk to each other.
Geographic Separation of Active and Standby MGC Hosts
This featurette (CSCdx12526) enables the geographic separation of the active and standby hosts of the PGW 2200.
Note
Supported connectivity between the active and standby host is currently limited to local area networks (LANs) only.
•
End to end delay (one way) must be less than 150 ms.
•
Packet loss must not exceed 1%.
•
For packet loss rates below 0.5%, increase the RUDP receive window size (*. rudpWindowSz) to 64 for increased performance.
•
If Improved SIP Failover support is enabled both PGW 2200s should be on the same subnet.
Codec Selection
This featurette provides the ability to detect and effect routing based on Calling Party Category (CPC), Transmission Medium Requirements (TMR), and Transit Network Selection (TNS).
Codec selection can be applied for different call scenarios. The following call scenarios are supported:
•
Call originating on TDM (SS7) network and terminating on either TDM or VoIP network.
•
Call originating on VoIP network having no SDP and terminating on TDM network.
•
Call originating on VoIP network having SDP with Codec List/Codec and terminating on DM network.
ISUP PCI and MCI Support
This featurette (CSCdz76331) enables the PGW2200 to support the sending and receiving of the Parameter Compatibility Information (PCI) and the Message Compatibility Information (MCI) parameters.
New Cause Code for Call Re-Attempts
This featurette (CSCeb19790) determines how calls are released from the PGW when the following scenarios occur:
•
Glare on non-control circuit
•
Circuit Block after IAM before ACM
•
Circuit Reset after IAM before ACM
•
COT failure
The following entry must be manually added to the configurable parameter section of XECfgParm.dat using a UNIX editor (such as vi):
*.GlareReattemptCauseValue=44Valid values are 1-127; the default value is 44.
Note
This featurette is for nailed solutions only.
Features Implemented in Release 9.3(1)T
NOA, Cause14, 32 and Overdecadic Digit Support for Spain/Italy/Belgium
This featurette (CSCdx74306) implements the following features on three ITU protocols (Spanish, Italian, and Belgium ISUP). Valid values are:
•
1—country specific NOA values for ported calls
Italy=1, Belgium=2, Spain=126
•
2—Cause 14 for QoR
•
3—32 and Overdecadic Digits support (Spain requires both; Italian and Belgium ISUP already support Overdecadics)
NOA, Cause14, 32 and Overdecadic Digit Support for Spain
This featurette (CSCdy32946) implements the following features on three ITU protocols (Spanish ISUP). Valid values are:
•
1—country specific NOA values for ported calls
•
2—Cause 14 for QoR
•
3—32 and Overdecadic Digits support
NOA, Cause14, 32 Digit Support for Sweden
This featurette (CSCdx68011) implements the following features:
•
Mapping and generation of country specific NOA values for ported calls
•
Mapping of cause 14 for QoR
•
Support for 32 Digits
Support for ANSI E1
GTD PRN support has been extended to include the ANSISS7_E1 variant to allow interwork/transparency using NI2C and GTD in a nail-up configuration.
The following files have been updated:
•
switchTypes.h—This is a common include file for library source code. The existing ioSwitchTP enum definition has been extended to have the following information.
–
SwANSIE1_32 = 23
–
Variant.dat : ANSISS7_E1 SS7_ANSI 23
•
tpTrunkGroupInd.cpp file—used by MML provisioning functionality in switchmode provisioning. The following function currently check for 0 and 20 swtichType and we need to enhance it to support new switchType 23.
•
int tpTrunkGroupInd::validateSigSvc()—this function has been enhanced to support new switchType 23.
Israel ISUP Support
Support for Israel ISUP has been added. The following implementations are added:
•
Support for the charging mechanism defined in Israel ISUP which includes the handling of new charge related messages and parameters.
•
Support to hide the visibility of unsupported messages and parameters in base implementation.
•
Changes to accommodate the maximum number of circuits in Circuit group blocking and Circuit Group Reset Messages to 31 instead of 32 in base version.
•
Additional support for rerouting requirements specific to Israeli ISUP.
•
Since the charge messages are ignored in Type A and transparently passed in Type B, the measurements of these messages are ignored for the current implementation.
Disable MGCP-NTFY Response Timer to Allow VPDN Tunnel Support
This feature removes the MGCPDial_Auth_Timer timer and the MGCPDIALauthtimeralarm alarm. As a result, the Cisco MGC does not wait for NTFY [O: au, ax, of, etc.] and allows the gateways to handle authorization. The PGW does not release the call because of a NTFY response timer expiry, but allows the call to continue.
New Version of Times Ten Database Software
Note
If you are migrating from MGC software Release 9.1(5), the requirement to migrate the Times Ten Database information was fulfilled during the 9.1(5) installation and no longer applies when installing this release.
If you are migrating from a MGC software release prior to 9.1(5), prior to uninstalling the previous release of the MGC software, you must run the following command:
/opt/TimesTen32/32/bin/ttMigrate -c DSN=howdydb /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/migrate.ttdbIf you do not run the migrate command before uninstalling the previous release, the following message displays when you install the new release:
A backup file was found for the database, but no migration file.A migration file is required before you can upgrade to the latest release of Times Ten. If the previous message displays, complete one of the following procedures.
Option 1
Step 1
Reinstall the previous release of the MGC and run the following command:
/opt/TimesTen32/32/bin/ttMigrate -c DSN=howdydb /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/migrate.ttdb
Step 2
Uninstall the previous release.
Step 3
Reinstall the software.
Option 2
Step 1
If you do not want to save the data from the previous release, remove the file:
/opt/CiscoMGC/etc/export.ttdb
Step 2
Reinstall the software.
Note
After upgrading the software on both machines, run the setup_replication.sh script on the standby MGC.
Solaris 8 Run Time Environment
Release 9.3(2) can only be installed on a platform loaded with the Solaris 8 operating system using a clean installation or upgrade procedure.
Protocol File Rename
This featurette (CSCdv65596) renames existing protocols (removes customer names) using a generic naming scheme.
Advice Of Charge Support for India ISUP
This featurette (CSCdv77879) implements Advise of Charge (AOC) for India ISUP. It:
•
generates a charge message with a charge band number and sends it to a preceding exchange—passes the charge message generated by the terminating switch back to the originating switch.
•
passes a charge message from a succeeding exchange to a preceding exchange—generates the charge message and sends it to the originating switch.
Requests are passed using generic transparency descriptor (GTD) support. GTD transports ISUP messages and parameters, using a generic format, between the ingress and egress SC2200 Signaling Controllers.
The following criteria is used in the design and implementation of this featurette:
•
The outgoing (o/g) destination is equivalent to the called party number (CDPN) or B-number.
•
The incoming trunk category (group) is determined by the customer group ID, which in turn determines the dial plan.
•
The resulting dial plan is used to perform the B-number analysis in order to determine the charge band number (CHBN).
•
The CHBN is not calculated based on the time of day and type of day, it is a provisioned value in the dial plan.
•
In order for the PGW2200 to act as a charge determination point (CDP), the existing AOC enabled/disabled property has to be enabled.
•
The pass on capability of the received CRG message by the PGW2200 to the preceding exchange requires that the ISUP transparency disabled property be false or have a value of zero (0).
Provisioning of Dual CLI
This featurette (CSCdw72061) provides PC-to-phone capabilities from Microsoft XP SIP Clients and enables you to populate Dual CLI fields in an outgoing IAM message. Both CLIs are fixed values for all SIP clients and overwrite any CLI information received in the SIP invite message.
This featurette adds two new trunk group parameters, Default Presentation CLI and Presentation CLI APRI Handling and support for populating the generic number CLI in transmitted IAM messages for UK-ISUP with the presentation CLI .
•
Default Presentation CLI—Numeric string affecting calls ingressing on a designated trunk group.
•
Presentation CLI APRI Handling— Valid values are:
–
Match Network CLI—Causes the restriction indicator on the presentation CLI to duplicate the value for the Network CLI.
–
Always Present—Causes the restriction indicator to always be set to Present regardless of the Network CLI setting. This parameter is applicable to the egress trunk group (UK-ISUP in this case).
Software Inventory Control
This featurette detects incompatible software versions residing on test systems in the various Cisco testing facilities. Each software release provides a file containing checksum information for all the libraries and executables being installed. The Software Inventory Control utility generates checksums on the production system then compares those checksums with the values in the installation master file. A discrepancy indicates that the software on the box does not match the software that was originally installed.
Note
This featurette does not identify the source of a problem or the correct software to install. It does indicate if a problem exists prior to the testing of incompatible software.
CautionThe Software Inventory Control feature uses a 32-bit CRC to calculate checksums. A 32-bit CRC can give over 4 billion possible CRC values (232 or 4,294,967,296). With so many CRC values it is possible for two different pieces of data to have the same CRC.
Software Inventory Control Feature Modification
The Software Inventory Control feature has been modified to be less restrictive on the Solaris patches.
•
Patches that are installed but not in the input patch list or in the input patch list but not installed are treated as warnings—they may or may not cause problems for the MGC Software.
•
Patches that are installed but have a version number different from the version number in the input patch list are reported as errors.
•
Warning messages are only displayed if the verbose option (-v) is set.
Note
The Software Inventory Control feature requires the Solaris patch cluster version 2.0(4) or higher due to changes in the input data files.
Route and Advance and Redirection on Cause Code
This featurette (CSCdv89959) provides the PGW with the capability to support route advance (redirection) as a result of cause analysis. Cause analysis is provoked when a release message is received from the gatekeeper or subsequent TDM switch that supplies a specific reason to invoke analysis.
It invokes a trunk group or route advance (backward indication/request for redirection) when a call enters a cause analysis (the previous call attempt failed). If the previous call failure returns a new destination number (redirection number or new CdPN), the new number is used in analysis to determine a new destination (return to analysis result type is encountered).
Circuit Reservation
This featurette (CSCdw60619) provides the capability to reserve a percentage of the trunks in a trunk group for incoming calls. When the specified percentage is reached any new outgoing traffic that would normally be routed to the trunk group is routed to the next available alternate trunk group. This featurette is dynamically reconfigurable.
MGCP Dial Package—Enhanced MGCP Controlled Hairpinning
This featurette enables the PGW 2200 to control 5300, 5350/5400, and 5850 platforms using Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) to initiate TDM switching (also referred to as TDM hairpinning).
Previously, calls that ingressed and subsequently egressed using the same MGW engaged two DSP's in the signal path. This featurette removes the DSP's from the circuit when a call's ingress and egress point is on the same MGW. It requires that the PGW 2200 to signal via MGCP using the Local Connection Option (L) Network Type (nt) LOCAL value when a call ingresses and subsequently egresses via trunk groups existing on the same MGW.
Network Access Server (NAS) Package for MGC Protocol
This feature adds support for the Network Access Server (NAS) Package for Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) package on the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 universal gateways. With this implementation, data calls can be terminated on a trunking media gateway that is serving as a NAS. Trunks on the NAS are controlled and managed by a call agent that supports MGCP for both voice and data calls. The call agent must support the MGCP NAS package.
These capabilities are enabled by the universal port functionality of the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850, which allows these platforms to operate simultaneously as network access servers and voice gateways to deliver universal services on any port at any time. These universal services include dial access, real-time voice and fax, wireless data access, and unified communications.
The MGCP NAS package implements signals and events to create, modify, and tear down data calls. The events include signaling the arrival of an outbound call (IP to Public Switched Telephone Network [PSTN]) to the media gateway controller (call agent), reporting carrier loss and call authorization status, and receiving callback requests. The following types of calls can be terminated as data calls:
•
Data within the voice band (analog modem)
•
ISDN data (digital modem)
•
Data over voice when using a call agent that recognizes this call type and delivers these calls as digital data to the NAS
The NAS package provides MGCP capabilities for data calls on the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 that support all the dial-in and dial-out services, including the following:
•
Virtual Private Network (VPN) with Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)
•
Scalable Multichassis Multilink PPP (MMP) across multiple channels
•
MGCP 1.0 and MGCP 0.1
•
Call preauthentication with MGCP dial calls
INAP for Pre-Paid Services
This featurette (CSCdw28224) implements an IN interface that supports prepaid calling services on the PGW 2200. You can preselect a carrier or manually insert a Carrier Access Code (calling party) when dialing the destination. This service is combined with a prepaid accounting function to ensure effective and efficient revenue collection.
Note
The PGW does not have the capability to preserve IN transactions after failover of the platform. PGW aborts all IN transactions after failover. IN calls in answer state are released either immediately after failover or are carried on until the normal call clearing procedures release them.
Support for IRI/ORI in Q.767
A new .mdo file, Q767_SINGAPORE.mdo, has been created to support the Q767 Singapore IRI/ORI featurette (CSCdv77873).
Mandatory CLI Over Trunk Group
This featurette (CSCdw43415) causes the SC2200 and gateways to generate an Information Request (INR) back to the preceding switch to request the Calling Line ID (CLI) if it is not received on a particular incoming trunk group (TKG). The INR can be sent by an exchange while the call is in progress to request additional information from another exchange, for example, SC2200 back to the PSTN switch.
The preceding switch (from PSTN switch back to the SC2200) responds with an INF, or information message, and provides additional information back to the original requesting switch (the SC2200). One of the optional parameters returned in the INF is the calling party number, which is what is required as the CLI.
The INR query must only be sent if the Trunk Group on the route server has been configured to request a calling number if it is missing. If the calling number is not returned in the INF or a if INF is not returned then the call may be released, routed to an announcement or continued normally based on Trunk Group configuration.
Note
When using this featurette, the existing clipess property on the SC2200 must be set to 0 (disable) for the sigpath.
BTNUP 3.1 KHz Custom Configuration
This featurette (CSCdx05822) extends the function of the existing defaultBC property to include BTNUP-based trunk groups. The property can be set to SPEECH or 3_1_KHZ. The default setting is SPEECH.
If the property is set to 3_1_KHZ, PGW converts the outgoing ISDN 3.1KHz (CAT3) call over the BTNUP TrunkGroup to ISDN speech (CAT2) call. This property has no impact on outgoing ISDN data (CAT1) and speech (CAT2) calls over the BTNUP TrunkGroup.
LNP Enhancements to Q.761_Portugal Protocol
This featurette (CSCdx21249) adds enhancements required to certify the PGW 2200 for interconnect with the PTT to the Portuguese ISUP variant in the Media Gateway Controller (MGC) code. The enhancements are:
•
Support for Overdecadic Digits—if a number is ported, the SCP provides a prefix that must be passed outbound to the PTT to allow the correct OLO to receive the call for the subscriber. The format of the prefix to send to the PTT is DXXXYYY<called party number>. The overdecadic D is sent in front of the number. As a requirement, the PGW must support all overdecadic digits (A-F) in Q761_Portugal protocol.
•
Mapping of Cause Value 14 in Portugal—switches must act on or generate external cause 14 releases to pass interconnect. The PGW must map external cause 14 releases to an internal release cause code. The PGW must support number portability when operating as an originating switch, transit switch, recipient switch, or donor switch supporting the following scenarios:
–
PGW is the Transit Switch and receives a cause 14 from a donor switch. PGW passes the cause 14 to the originating switch which performs the LNP lookup
–
PGW is the Donor Switch and after recognizing the number has been ported, generates a cause 14 and passes the cause 14 to the originating switch witch performs the destination LNP lookup.
–
PGW is the Originating Switch and receives a cause 14 from a donor switch. PGW performs the destination LNP lookup.
–
PGW is the Recipient Switch and routes the ported call.
•
Do Not Reject Calls if ACM Contains Multiple PCI (parameter compatibility indicators) Option—currently, the PGW either fails the call with a cause 95 or completes the call but sends CFN messages. The PGW cannot fail calls if the ACM contains multiple options (multiple PCI parameters). As a requirement, because the PCI is not a repeatable parameter, the PGW should act on the first PCI parameter, and ignore the subsequent parameters. This applies to all messages that contain PCI parameters.
New Shared Memory Segment
The /etc/system file has been updated to support an upgrade to the Times Ten packaging. The update causes the install to prompt you for a reboot the first time the software release is installed.
36 GB Disk Drive Upgrade
This featurette enables you to upgrade your system from a 18 GB to a 36 GB disk drive. This patch should only be installed if you want to use a 36 GB disk drive.
This featurette provides changes to the following packages:
•
Log and Spool Package (CSCOh005) — This package is used by both Solaris 8 and Solaris 2.6 based MGC platforms to partition the second disk and mount it on the file system at /opt/CiscoMGC/var/log and /opt/CiscoMGC/var/spool. The following modifications were made to package CSCOh005:
–
CSCOh005 has been modified to work with arbitrary disk sizes.
–
A check has been added to ensure that DiskSuite is not using a second disk. If a second disk is used, the installation aborts and you are prompted to disable DiskSuite's use of the second disk. This allows you (if using a Cisco configured system) to use the Log and Spool Package to increase the usable disk space.
–
User prompts have been added for the mount points of the two partitions being created. This allows you to use the second disk when the base directory of the MGC software is changed. The default is the current hard coded values /opt/CiscoMGC/var/log and /opt/CiscoMGC/var/spool. This also allows you to change the default base directory during the MGC application installation.
–
The ration this package uses to divide up the second disk between the log and spool directories has been changed. Currently each directory gets 50%. This has been changed to use 40% of the disk for the log directory and 60% for the spool directory. This provides more room for CDRs.
•
CSCOh006—Veritas Volume Manager 2.6 Package— This package installs version 2.6 of the Veritas Volume Manager software on Solaris 2.6 based MGCs. It does not contain disk size dependencies.
•
CSCOh000—Veritas Volume Manager 3.1 Package— This package installs version 3.1 of the Veritas Volume Manager software on Solaris 2.6 based MGCs. It does not contain disk size dependencies.
•
Solaris 8 Operating System Installation modifications (ENG-92194) — The Solaris 8 and Solstice DiskSuite installation instructions engineering documents have been modified to include the following:
–
Added partition table for 36G disk drive for PGW host platform.
–
Added partition table for 36G disk drive for BAMS platform (first and second disk).
–
Added partition table for 36G disk drive for HSI platform (with input from HSI team).
–
Modified the upgrade procedure to indicate when to replace hard drives if replacing disks at the same time as OS and MGC application.
–
Added upgrade procedure for replacing hard drives without upgrading OS and MGC application.
–
Added a section explaining how to uninstall DiskSuite or disable its use of the second disk. This allows the second disk to be used for the log and spool directories.
•
Solaris 2.6 Operating System Installation change (ENG-54205)
–
Added partition table for 36G disk drive for MGC Host platform
–
Added upgrade procedure for replacing hard drives without upgrading OS and MG application.
The following configurations are not supported:
•
More than two disks in a Netra t 1400/1405
•
Mixed disk sizes in the same chassis
•
External disks other than the st A1000 disk array with eight 36G drives for the BAMS product only
B-Digit Modification Enhancement
For Hong Kong Local Number Portability (LNP), if a number is ported, the corresponding Gateway Number (GN) is appended to the called party number (CdPN) in the IAM. The PGW 2200 uses the European number portability configuration (E_PORTED_NUM) which gives the number as GN+CdPN. Another result type is created to allow the B-digit modification to delete the CdPN portion and send out just the GN.
In Hong Kong, there are currently 650k ported numbers, each with a unique GN. Since this number has a variable length (between 2 and 12 digits long), this implementation could not be used. This featurette (CSCdy25786) strips the E_PORTED_NUM out put of GN+CdPN from the last digit backward, since the CdPN has a fixed number of digits.

Software Patches
Patches are located in the following directory:
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/mgc-932
The protocol packaging has been improved so that you need only load and install protocols that you need. Previously, the entire protocol suite was packaged and delivered together. With the improved packaging protocol:
•
The standard installation script allows you to specify which protocol set(s) are required on your platform.
•
Only packages containing the desired protocols are installed as part of the standard installation.
The same number of packages available with the initial release still exists; however, they have a new nomenclature that is required to support patching later in the release life cycle and you have the option to install only the packages containing required protocols.
The protocol packages are labeled CSCOnnvvv:
nn—indicates the specific protocols you need for your environment
vvv—indicates the version level of the patch
For example, at the time of the release you are given protocol patch CSCO01000.pkg. The 01 indicates a specific protocol applicable to your environment; 000 indicates the revision level. The next time a set of protocol patches are built, the 000 is incremented by 1 (001).
Note
You must always install the 00 protocol package when upgrading a protocol patch level. If the 00 protocol package is not installed, the upgrade attempt fails. The Protocol file missing alarm displays.
Use the patch script (new shell script provided with the standard installation) located in your /opt/SW directory (created during the initial base software installation) to confirm which patch packages you need to install (using the patch status command), and then copy these packages into your local directory (/opt/SW)from the release directory where you can use the script to install the patches.
Note
If the patch script located in the release directory is newer than the patch script that you have on your system, copy the newer patch script to your /opt/SW directory below installing patches.
The installation script requires one of the following options:
•
Option 1—patch status retrieves the status of the system. Use this option to determine which set of protocol packages are currently installed on your system. The installed protocol packages are required (must be downloaded) to update the software. The exception is if you need a new protocol that was not previously delivered. In this case, you need to download an extra package (the package that the new protocol is delivered in).
•
Option 2—patch all automatically searches the local directory (/opt/SW) and the installed system to determine the most recent available patch and automatically updates the system with that patch level. This applies to protocol and system patches. All uninstall and install activities are handled by the script. The command for this is:patch all. The all command does not require a second argument.
•
Option 3—patch system [latest |<alternate patch number>] specifies the exact patch level for system patches you choose to install on the system. You can specify any available patch level to be installed. All uninstall and install activities are handled by this script. This option requires one of the following arguments:
–
latest —installs the most recently downloaded patch. This argument should be used with the system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
–
<number> —indicates the patch number <vvv> that you want to install. This argument should be used with the system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
•
Option 4—patch protocol [latest |<alternate patch number>] specifies the exact patch level for protocol patches you choose to install on the system. You can specify any available patch level to be installed. All uninstall and install activities are handled by this script. This option requires one of the following arguments:
–
latest —installs the most recently downloaded patch. This argument should be used with the system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
–
<number> —indicates the patch number <vvv> that you want to install. This argument should be used with the system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
The following is sample output of option 2, patch all which automatically searches the local directory and the installed system to determine the most recent available patch located in /opt/SW (protocol and system) and automatically updates the system with that patch level.

[y] [y,n,?,q]System Level Equivalency
Table 8 provides the system level equivalency for each protocol patch. For example, after installing CSCOnn001, release 9.3(2) is equivalent to release 9.2(2) patch level CSCOgp022 (contains all patches and features included in release 9.2(2) up to patch CSCOgp022).
Table 9 provides the system level equivalency for each system patch. For example, after installing CSCOgs001, release 9.3(2) is equivalent to release 9.2(2) patch level CSCOgs021 (contains all patches and features included in release 9.2(2) up to patch CSCOgs021).
Note
For information on the patches included in Release 9.2(2), refer to the Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.2(2) at the following url:

Patch Test Combinations
Table 10 provides a list of the patch combinations that were used when testing. Use this list to determine which protocol and system patches should be installed before you run the MGC software. It does not matter which patch (protocol or software) is installed first.

A new XECfgParm.dat parameter engine .SendHardwareBlock has been added. Valid values are true or false. If set to true, the PGW sends hardware oriented blocking messages for any blocks that originate from the media gateways. If set to false, the PGW only sends maintenance oriented blocking messages for all blocking cases.
This parameter must be added manually (using a UNIX editor such as vi) on release 9.3 and 9.4 systems. The di script automatically adds this parameter (if not already existing), to release 9.5 systems and above.

Known Issues and Operational Recommendations
This section contains information about known issues and the corresponding workarounds in the
Cisco MGC software release 9.3(2).
Note
For more information about Cisco IOS issues and workarounds, see the Cisco IOS release notes for your platform.
Routing Distribution Not Supported in SIP to SIP Calls
SIP to SIP calls fail when Distribute in outgoing SIP routelist is set to on.
Workaround: Turn off Distribute option or upgrade to 9.4(1) patch CSCOnn031.
Note
For more information see CDETS ticket number CSCsd02950.
This issue is resolved in Release 9.4(1) patch CSCOnn031.
Note
For more information, see CDETS ticket number CSCee71269.
PGW Should Support the Option of Sending Hardware Block Messages
A new XECfgParm.dat parameter engine .SendHardwareBlock has been added. Valid values are true and false (default). If set to true, the PGW sends hardware oriented blocking messages for any blocks that originate from the media gateways. If set to false, the PGW only sends maintenance oriented blocking messages for all blocking cases.
Note
This parameter must be added manually (using a UNIX editor such as vi) on release 9.3 and 9.4 systems. The di script automatically adds this parameter (if not already existing), to release 9.5 systems and above.
Note
This parameter was introduced in the CSCOnn048/CSCOgs042 patch combination.
Note
For more information, refer to DDTS ticket number CSCeg83496.
Link and Call States for New Object Not Synchronized to Standby After prov-copy/prov-sync
When you provision and add new signaling links or new CICS using the PROV-CPY command, you must reboot the system to synchronize the new objects in the active system to the standby. Not rebooting can cause loss of calls after a switchover.
Upgrading to Release 9.6(1)
When upgrading to release 9.6(1), the Times Ten database is upgraded to version 5.0.x.
Upgrading From Releases 9.3, 9.4, and 9.5:
Before uninstalling a previous release, if using the database, run the delete_replication.sh script. After installing release 9.6 on both the active and standby, run the setup_replication.sh script on both PGWs.
The delete_replication.sh script should be run as mgcusr. The script is located in /opt/CiscoMGC/local, but if run as mgcusr, can be run from any location.
The setup_replication.sh script should be run as mgcusr. The script is located in /opt/CiscoMGC/local, but if run as mgcusr, can be run from any location.
Note
For more information on running these scripts, refer to the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide at the following url:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps1913/products_installation_and_configuration_guide_book09186a008007df76.html
Note
Provisioning must not be done during the upgrade until both PGWs (active and standby) have release 9.6 installed and the setup_replication.sh script has been run (on active and standby).
For more information, refer to DDTS ticket number CSCec77087.
Japanese Point Code Transmission
Point codes are used in SS7 networks as addresses for each element. There are three different point code address lengths used in SS7 networks:
•
14-bit address
•
16-bit address
•
24-bit address
Each point code addressing type has unique formats that are used to provide a structure for the network, where the lowest order bits in the address identify a particular signaling point, the highest order bits identify the wider "zone", and the bits in-between identify an "area" or "network." For example, ANSI SS7 uses 24-bit addresses with a format of 8-bits for each field (8-8-8).
Note
An exception to this is found in Japanese ISUP, in which the order is reversed (that is, the lowest order bits identify the wider "zone" and the highest order bits identify a particular signaling point).
For more information, refer to the following documents:
•
Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Provisioning Guide
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/sc/rel9/prvgde/index.htm•
Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Operation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting Guide
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/sc/rel9/omts/index.htmSimple Resource Control Protocol
The Simple Resource Control Protocol (SRCP) commands and alarms are no longer supported in the Media Gateway Controller (MGC) software effective in this software release. SRCP was developed as an optional extension to the MGCP control protocol. It provided an additional heartbeat mechanism between the Call Agent and Media Gateways to ensure that the configuration and parameters were synchronized. When the SRCP heartbeat was enabled, the Call Agent and Media Gateways would exchange information and the Call Agent would provide an alarm if IP addresses, Slot Numbers, Control Protocols/Versions and other parameters were not synchronized.
The SRCP audit mechanism was developed by Cisco Systems when the MGCP protocol was still in draft version and has never been adopted by any Standards bodies (ITU, ETSI) or other equipment suppliers.
Improved SIP Failover Support
The original failover strategy relied on a SIP element to detect a PGW 2200 failover by the absence of any SIP responses from the PGW 2200 after a failover. The SIP device gets the IP address of the newly active PGW 2200 host from a DNS SRV query or an internal cache of a previous query.
The new failover strategy uses two virtual IP addresses for SIP signaling, one for each VLAN. Upon a failover, the newly active host activates the virtual SIP IP addresses and the previously active host deactivates the SIP Virtual IP addresses.
Note
For more information, refer to the Improved SIP Failover Support feature in the New Features in This Release section of this document.
Validation Rules of Cisco Solaris Packages Are Incomplete (mgcrestore/mgcbackup)
The mgcrestore script validates the version of the installed Solaris packages but does not ensure that the install script was executed. If there is a mismatch between when the backup file was created and the time of the restore, the restore is not allowed. For example, if the security package was not installed when the backup was created, but is installed when the restore is attempted, then the restore is not allowed. Because the script does not validate whether the script was executed, the restore validation rules might pass, yet the restore could cause system problems.
Workaround: When Cisco Packages are added and removed, ensure the install and uninstall scripts are executed.
Note
For more information, see CDETS ticket number CSCdx78398.
Remove 32 Digit Support from ISUPV2_FINNISH96
32 digit support has been removed from ISUPV2_FINNISH96. This option was removed from this software release in patch CSCOnn026.
Note
For more information, see CDETS ticket number CSCec30533.
CDR Does Not Show Tech Prefix in Tag 4014
Called_Num (CDR tag 4014) is not updated when the BnationalPrefix, (CC_DIG)BDigitCCPrefix, and BInternationalPrefix properties are provisioned.
Note
Called_Num_NatOfAddr (tag 3007) is updated accordingly. The tag value shows the post-analysis number without the prefixing.
Note
Charged_Num (tag 4011) in CDR is updated when the AnationalPrefix, (CCOrigin)ADigitCCPrefix, and AInternationalPrefix properties are provisioned.
Workaround: Upgrade your system to release 9.4(1).
Note
For more information, refer to DDTS ticket number CSCea69207.
Taking a Signal Path Resource Out Of Service
During maintenance, system administrators should not use the set-dest-state and set-spc-state MML commands to take a signal path resource out of service (OOS). These commands are used to take a signal path resource OOS and causes all active calls served by the signal path to drop immediately.
To take a signal path resource OOS, use the set-admin-state MML command; this command blocks the resources associated with a signal path.
Note
The set-dest-state and set-spc-state commands should only be used during dynamic provisioning.
Note
For more information, refer to DDTS ticket number CSCdx32140.
Provisioning From a New Configuration
You can use "new" as the source configuration only when there is no existing, active set of provisioning data in the configuration library. Therefore, "new" cannot be used as the source configuration once a provisioning session has been saved and activated by using prov-cpy or prov-dply. Once you have saved and activated a set of data, you must use either "active" or the name of the set of provisioning data as the source configuration.
Note
Effective as of release 9.3(2) patch number CSCOgs012, a provisioning session will not be initiated if the active_link is pointing to a configuration directory other than "New".
Complete the following steps to provision from new (prov-sta::srcver="new") when there is already an active configuration:
Step 1
Stop the standby PGW (Host B).
Step 2
Stop the active PGW (Host A).
Step 3
Copy XECfgParm.dat to XECfgParm.dat.<backupname> on Host A and Host B.
Step 4
Copy /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/CONFIG_LIB/new/* to /opt/CiscoMGC/etc on Host A and Host B.
Step 5
Copy XECfgParm.dat.<backupname> to XECfgParm.dat on both Host A and Host B.
Step 6
Remove the active_link and prov_link on Host A.
Step 7
Start Host A.
Step 8
Provision Host A from new.
Step 9
Ensure that standby PGW (Host B) has pom.dataSync set to True.
Step 10
Start Host B and allow Host A and Host B to synchronize.
Note
Provisioning from new resets a system to its default settings instead of provisioning the system from an active configuration.
For more information, refer to DDTS number CSCea64945.
Using prov-cpy/prov-sync To Commit Configuration Changes on a Fault-Tolerant System
When using the prov-cpy/prov-sync combination to commit configuration changes on a fault-tolerant system the standby might not fully synchronize with the active which results in the second switchover failing. The following non-service affecting workarounds can be used if this problem occurs:
•
Use prov-dply, instead of the prov-cpy/prov-sync combination to commit each phase of provisioning on a fault-tolerant system. The prov-dply command ensures that both sides are completely synchronized.
•
After using the prov-cpy/prov-sync combination to commit configuration changes, stop and restart the standby. Restarting the standby resynchronizes all states correctly.
Note
For more information refer to DDTS number CSCdw63484.
SIP Redundancy Feature Might Cause PGW Nodes to Show Same IP Address
When the PGW is set up to allow SIP redundancy, the virtual interface (hme0:1) might appear on both the active and standby PGW. This might confuse the Cisco MNM because it sees two devices with the same IP address, causing it (MNM) to discard all the alarms received against that object.
Carrier Table Migration From Release 9.2(2) to Release 9.3(2)
If your 9.3(2) configuration contains Carrier Table, you must run the migration script manually after installing patches CSCOnn010 and CSCOgs009 so that the Carrier Table data is properly migrated.
Use the following command to check if carriertbl is already provisioned on a 9.2(2) system:
prov-rtrv:carriertblExample output of a release 9.2(2) system that has carriertbl provisioned:

Step 1
Stop the standby system.
Step 2
Upgrade to 9.3(2) patch level CSCOgs009/CSCOnn010 or later.
Step 3
Execute the following command to correct migration:
migrate /opt/CiscoMGC etc/CONFIG_LIB/CFG_migrated etc/CONFIG_LIB/CFG_re-migratedStep 4
Set XECfgParm.dat:pom.dataSync=false.
Step 5
Restart the application.
Step 6
Bring down the active system.
Step 7
Upgrade to 9.3(2) at the equivalent patch level.
Step 8
Set XECfgParm.dat:pom.dataSync=true.
Step 9
Restart the application
The new standby should sync up to have a new active_link of CFG_re-migrated.

Provisioning Command carriertbl Not Supported in Release 9.3(2)
When exporting data and reprovisioning using a batchfile after migrating from release 9.2(2) to release 9.3(2), prov-copy fails. Failure is due to the carriertbl provisioning command. This command exists in release 9.2(2) but has been removed in release 9.3(2). For more information refer to DDTS number CSCea24173.
Note
This issue was resolved in patch CSCOgs009. For more information refer to DDTS number CSCea24986.
DefaultCARIDNetId Field Entries Are Validated In Release 9.3(2)
In release 9.3(2), the trunk group property Default Carrier Identifier Network Identifier (DefaultCARIDNetId) has a field length of two to four digits. Provisioning of existing migrated data from release 9.2(2) might fail because this field was not validated in previous releases. In this case, if your provisioning fails, edit the mml batchfile to change the number of digits for this parameter to a two to four digit number.
Note
For more information refer to DDTS number CSCea24175.
Modifying the OPC of an SS7 Route
When prov-ed is used to modify the OPC of an SS7ROUTE or SS7PATH, the PGW software must be stopped and restarted before changes take affect. Stopping and restarting the system results in a service-affecting outage. To make a change without stopping and restarting the PGW, complete the following procedure:
Step 1
Start a provisioning session on the active machine.
Step 2
Use prov-dlt to remove the following components:
•
SS7ROUTE,
•
all associated trunks to the SS7PATH
•
SS7PATH
•
DPC
Step 3
Execute the prov-dply command.
Step 4
Start a second provisioning session on the active machine.
Step 5
Use prov-add to add the following components:
•
DPC
•
SS7PATH
•
all associated trunks to the SS7PATH
•
SS7ROUTE (with the new OPC and linkset changes)
Step 6
Execute the prov-dply command.
Migration of Dialplans Failed From 7.4(x) to 9.3(x)
The software upgrade from 7.4(x) to 9.3(x) involves upgrading the operating system (OS) from Solaris 2.6 to Solaris 2.8. The configuration and TimesTen databases are saved before the OS upgrade and then migrated to 9.3(x) as part of 9.3(x) installation. During migration the following error message is issued and the system does not come up in the standby state.
Migration dialplan file:0102.dialPlan:Error message: error reading from /opt/CiscoMGC/etc/CONFIG_LIB/tmp_migrate_8.0//digitAnalysis.datError code: 5001Error migrating dialPlanIf you receive this error during migration, refer to the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide, Chapter 5, Upgrading to Cisco MGC Software Release 9.3(2), at the following url:

Conditional Routing Name Validation in Release 9.2(2)
Conditional routing name validation did not occur in release 9.2(2) prior to patch CSCOgs021. Therefore, there is a potential of having some invalid conditional routing names.
If an invalid conditional routing name was used in release 9.2(2) and you attempt to upgrade to a newer release (9.3(2) and beyond), the migration will fail because the validation of the conditional route name fails.
