This document describes how to bulk import both the device and line level configuration of the Voice Gateway (VG). VG 224 and VG350 configurations normally have many ports. The addition of the device and line level configuration for all the ports becomes a tedious process in huge deployments.
See the "Add Cisco VG224 gateways using BAT" procedure documented in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Bulk Administration Guide for information on how to import multiple VGs. However, it does not provide a way to import the line level configuration for all the ports.
Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of the Bulk Administration Tool.
The information in this document is based on Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) Release 10.5.2.
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.
If the VG is already added in CUCM and the requirement is only to update the device and line level configuration of the ports, then go to the section "Update the Device and Line Level Configuration of Ports of the Current VG".
If the requirement is to insert the VG and also to update the device and line level configuration on the ports, then begin with the section "Insert Gateway".
In order to insert the gateway, complete these steps:
In order to update the configurations, complete these steps:
Use this section to confirm that your configuration works properly.
This section provides information you can use to troubleshoot your configuration.
If the job fails with an error that the header is missing, then make sure that the updated .csv file is saved in the same folder where you exported the gateway configuration.
Make sure that the filename mentioned in the header file is same as that of the actual .csv file.
In Step 9 of the section "Update the Device and Line Level Configuration of Ports of the Current VG", if you do not see the option 'Gateway' then most likely the endpoint description has a special character. This is because Windows saves the .csv file in 'ANSI' format by default. When you save the .csv file, choose UTF-8 from the Encoding drop-down list as shown in this screenshot.
