Removing Call Routing Rules That Were Changed or Added as a Workaround
Do the procedures in this section if you are currently running AV-Cisco TSP version 1.0(0.28) and if you used one of the following workarounds for caveat number CSCae08089 (subscribers hear the opening greeting instead of the logon conversation if the first voice messaging port is in use):
•
Changed the default routing rules with AvRulerEditor.exe. This workaround was posted to Cisco Unity Online Support Forums, at http://avforums.isomedia.com/cgi-bin/wwwthreads.pl.
•
Added one or more routing rules that applied to calls forwarded from voice messaging ports and that sent forwarded calls to the subscriber logon conversation.
The routing rules must be reset to their default values (which deletes any non-default routing rules).
If you did the procedures during the installation of AV-Cisco TSP version 1.0(0.32), you can skip this section.
To locate valid routing rules
Step 1
In the Cisco Unity Administrator, go to Call Management > Call Routing > Forwarded Calls.
Step 2
Make a note of the settings for each non-default routing rule. If a routing rule has the following values, it was added for the workaround and should not be recreated after you reset routing rules to their default values:
Forwarding StationOne or more of the ports assigned to Cisco Unity. This value may include the * wildcard character.
Send Call ToAttempt Sign-In.
To reset routing rules to their default values and delete non-default routing rules
Step 1
Run <drive>:\CommServer\ConfigMgr.exe.
Step 2
In the ConfigMgr dialog box, click Browse and select the file CommServer\Localize\Default Configuration\<language folder>\DefaultRules.dcs.
Step 3
Click Run Rules Configuration DCS Script.
Step 4
Click Run.
Step 5
When the message "Default rules configured successfully" appears, close the ConfigMgr dialog box. If any errors appeared while ConfigMgr.exe was running, call Cisco TAC.
To recreate valid routing rules
Step 1
In the Cisco Unity Administrator, go to Call Management > Call Routing > Forwarded Calls.
Step 2
Recreate the routing rules by using the values that you noted in the first procedure. For more information, see the Cisco Unity Administrator Online Documentation.

Avoiding Collisions Between MWIs and Incoming Calls
Collisions between MWIs and incoming calls are not possible when ports are dedicated to handle only MWIs or incoming calls.
Although all known collision problems are fixed in AV-Cisco TSP Release 1.0(0.36), there may be other collision issues that have not yet been discovered. Therefore, we recommend dedicated MWI ports.
