Command Modes

Global configuration (config)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced on the Cisco AS5300.

Usage Guidelines

This command brings back the original behavior of the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA). NAS-Port on VoIP interfaces. By default this feature is disabled.

Examples

The following example shows how to return to the original behavior of the AAA NAS-Port:


aaa nas port voip

Related Commands


Command	Description
aaa nas port extended	Replaces the NAS-port attribute with RADIUS IETF attribute 26 and displays extended field information.

aaa username

To determine the information with which to populate the username attribute for Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA). billing records, use the aaa username command in SIP user agent configuration mode. To achieve default capabilities, use the no form of this command.

aaa username {calling-number | proxy-auth}

no aaa username

Syntax Description


calling-number	Uses the FROM: header in the SIP INVITE (default value). This keyword is used in most implementations.
proxy-auth	Parses the Proxy-Authorization header. Decodes the Microsoft Passport user ID (PUID) and password, and then populates the PUID into the username attribute and a "." into the password attribute. The username attribute is used for billing, and the "." is used for the password, because the user has already been authenticated before this point.

Command Default

calling-number

Command Modes

SIP user agent configuration (config-sip-ua)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(2)XB	This command was introduced on the Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3600 series, Cisco 7200 series, Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, and the Cisco AS5400.
12.2(8)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T. This command does not support the Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, and Cisco AS5400 in this release.
12.2(11)T	This command was integrated Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)T and was implemented on the Cisco AS5850. This command is supported on the Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5800 in this release.

Usage Guidelines

Parsing the Proxy-Authorization header, decoding the PUID and password, and populating the username attribute with the PUID must be enabled through this command. If this command is not issued, the Proxy-Authorization header is ignored.

The keyword proxy-auth is a nonstandard implementation, and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) gateways do not normally receive or process the Proxy-Authorization header.

Examples

The following example enables the processing of the SIP username from the Proxy-Authorization header:


Router(config)# sip-ua
Router(config-sip-ua)# aaa username proxy-auth

Related Commands


Command	Description
show call active voice	Displays sactive call information for voice calls or fax transmissions in progress.

access-list (voice source-group)

To assign an access list to a voice source group, use the access-list command in voice source-group configuration mode. To delete the access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number

no access-list access-list-number

Syntax Description


`access` -`list` -`number`	Number of an access list. The range is from 1 to 99.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Voice source-group configuration (cfg-source-grp)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced in voice source-group configuration mode.

Usage Guidelines

An access list defines a range of IP addresses for incoming calls that require additional scrutiny. Two related commands are used for voice source groups:

Use the access-list access-list-number {deny | permit } source [source-wildcard ] [log ] command in global configuration mode to define the contents of the access list.
Use the access-list access-list-number command in voice source-group configuration mode to assign the defined access list to the voice source group.

The terminating gateway uses the source IP group to identify the source of the incoming VoIP call before selecting an inbound dial peer. If the source is found in the access list, then the call is accepted or rejected, depending on how the access list is defined.

The terminating gateway uses the access list to implement call blocking. If the call is rejected, the terminating gateway returns a disconnect cause to the source. Use the disconnect-cause command to specify a disconnect cause to use for rejected calls.

Use the show access-lists privileged EXEC command to display the contents of all access lists.

Use the show ipaccess-lis t privileged EXEC command to display the contents of one access list.

Examples

The following example assigns access list 1 to voice source-group alpha. Access list 1 was defined previously using another command. An incoming source IP group call is checked against the conditions defined for access list 1 and is processed based on the permit or deny conditions of the access list.


Router(config)# voice source-group alpha
Router(cfg-source-grp)# access-list 1

Related Commands


Command	Description
carrier-id (dial-peer)	Specifies the carrier as the source of incoming VoIP calls (for carrier ID routing).

Syntax Description


neighbors-only	(Optional) Requires that a neighbor be configured.

Command Default

Border elements accept any and all requests if service relationships are not configured.

Command Modes

Annex G configuration (config-annexg)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Border elements accept any and all requests if service relationships are not configured. The access-policy command eliminates arbitrary requests from unknown border elements, and is a required prerequisite for configuring service relationships.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the service relationship between border elements:


Router(config-annexg)# access-policy neighbors-only

accounting method MethListName [out-bound]

no accounting method MethListName [out-bound]

Syntax Description


`MethListName`	Defines an accounting method list name.
out-bound	(Optional) Defines the outbound leg.

Command Default

When this command is not used to specify an accounting method, the system uses the aaa accounting connection h323 command as the default . If the method list name is not specified, the outbound call leg uses the same method list name as the inbound call leg

Command Modes

Voice class AAA configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced on the Cisco 3660, Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, Cisco AS5800, and Cisco AS5850.

Usage Guidelines

This command sets the accounting method for dial peers in voice class AAA configuration mode. To initially define a method list, refer to the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide, Release 12.2.

If the outbound option is specified, the outbound call leg on the dial peer uses the method list name specified in the command. If the method list name is not specified, by default, the outbound call leg uses the same method list name as the inbound call leg.

Examples

The following example sets the dp-out method for the outbound leg:


voice class aaa 1 
 accounting method dp-out out-bound

Related Commands


Command	Description
aaa accounting connection h323	Defines the accounting method list H.323 with RADIUS, using stop-only or start-stop accounting options.
voice class aaa	Enables dial-peer-based VoIP AAA configurations.

accounting suppress

To disable accounting that is automatically generated by a service provider module for a specific dial peer, use the accounting suppress command in voice class AAA configuration mode. To allow accounting to be automatically generated, use the no form of this command.

accounting suppress [in-bound | out-bound]

no accounting suppress [in-bound | out-bound]

Syntax Description


in-bound	(Optional) Defines the call leg for incoming calls.
out-bound	(Optional) Defines the call leg for outbound calls.

Command Default

Accounting is automatically generated by the service provider module.

Command Modes

Voice class AAA configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced on the Cisco 3660, Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, Cisco AS5800, and Cisco AS5850.

Usage Guidelines

If a call leg option is not specified by the command, accounting is disabled for both inbound and outbound calls. For accounting to be automatically generated in the service provider module, you must first configuregw-accounting aaa command in global configuration mode before configuring dial-peer-based accounting in voice class AAA configuration mode.

Examples

In the example below, accounting is suppressed for the incoming call leg.


voice class aaa 1
 accounting suppress in-bound

Related Commands


Command	Description
gw-accounting aaa	Enables VoIP gateway accounting.
suppress	Turns off accounting for a call leg on a POTS or VoIP dial peer.
voice class aaa	Enables dial-peer-based VoIP AAA configurations.

accounting template

To allow each dial peer to choose and send a customized accounting template to the RADIUS server, use the accounting template command in voice class AAA configuration mode. To disable the dial peer from choosing and sending a customized accounting template, use the no form of this command.

accounting template acctTempName [out-bound]

no accounting template acctTempName [out-bound]

Syntax Description


`acctTempName`	Defines an accounting template name.
out-bound	(Optional) Defines the outbound leg.

Command Default

The dial peer does not choose and send a customized accounting template to the RADIUS server.

Command Modes

Voice class AAA configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced on the Cisco 3660, Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, Cisco AS5800, and Cisco AS5850.

Usage Guidelines

By default, non-RFC-mandatory vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) are not included in accounting records if you do not configure the accounting template. The accounting template enables you to manage accounting records at a per-VSA level. When an accounting template is used for customizing the accounting record, the VSA name release source has to be included in the template file so that it is included in the accounting record and sent to the RADIUS server.

This command overrides the acct-template command in gateway accounting AAA configuration mode when a customized accounting template is used.

If you use a Tool Command Language (Tcl) script, the Tcl verbaaa accounting start [-tacctTempName ] takes precedence over theaccounting template command in voice class AAA configuration mode.

Examples

The following example sets the template temp-dp for the outbound leg


voice class aaa 1
 accounting template temp-dp out-bound

Related Commands


Command	Description
acct-template	Sends a selected group of voice accounting VSAs.
voice class aaa	Enables dial-peer-based VoIP AAA configurations.

acc-qos

To define the acceptable quality of service (QoS) for any inbound and outbound call on a VoIP dial peer, use the acc-qos command in dial-peer configuration mode. To restore the default QoS setting, use the no form of this command.

acc-qos {best-effort | controlled-load | guaranteed-delay} [audio | video]

no acc-qos

Syntax Description


best-effort	Indicates that Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) makes no bandwidth reservation. This is the default.
controlled-load	Indicates that RSVP guarantees a single level of preferential service, presumed to correlate to a delay boundary. The controlled load service uses admission (or capacity) control to ensure that preferential service is received even when the bandwidth is overloaded.
guaranteed-delay	Indicates that RSVP reserves bandwidth and guarantees a minimum bit rate and preferential queueing if the bandwidth reserved is not exceeded.
audio	(Optional) Configures acceptable QoS for audio traffic.
video	(Optional) Configures acceptable QoS for video traffic.

Command Default

RSVP makes no bandwidth reservations.

Command Modes

Dial-peer configuration (config-dial-peer)

Command History


Release	Modification
11.3(1)T	This command was introduced on the Cisco 3600 series routers.
12.1(5)T	The description of the command was modified.
12.3(4)T	The audio and video keywords were added.
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.3S	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 3.3S.

Usage Guidelines

This command is applicable only to VoIP dial peers.

When VoIP dial peers are used, the Cisco IOS software uses RSVP to reserve a certain amount of bandwidth so that the selected QoS can be provided by the network. Call setup is aborted if the RSVP resource reservation does not satisfy the acceptable QoS for both peers.

To select the most appropriate value for this command, you need to be familiar with the amount of traffic this connection supports and what kind of impact you are willing to have on it. The Cisco IOS software generates a trap message when the bandwidth required to provide the selected quality of service is not available.

If audio or video is not configured, the bearer capability information element (IE) is not checked against max values during SETUP.

You must use the iprsvpbandwidth command to enable RSVP on an IP interface before you can specify RSVP QoS.

In order to use this command, you have to have the "req-qos" statement present.

Examples

The following example selects guaranteed-delay as the acceptable QoS for inbound and outbound audio calls on VoIP dial peer 10:


dial-peer voice 10 voip
 acc-qos guaranteed-delay

The following example selects controlled-load as the acceptable QoS for audio and video:


dial-peer voice 100 voip
 acc-qos controlled-load audio
 acc-qos controlled-load video

Related Commands


Command	Description
req-qos	Requests a particular QoS using RSVP to be used in reaching a specified dial peer in VoIP.
ip rsvp bandwidth	Enables Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) for IP on an interface.

acct-template

To select a group of voice attributes to collect in accounting records, use the acct-template command in gateway accounting AAA or gateway accounting file configuration mode. To disable collection of a group of voice attributes, use the no form of this command.

acct-template {template-name | callhistory-detail}

no acct-template {template-name | callhistory-detail}

Syntax Description


`template-name`	Name of the custom accounting template.
callhistory-detail	Collects all voice vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) for accounting.

Command Default

No voice attributes are collected.

Command Modes

Gateway accounting AAA configuration (config-gw-accounting-aaa)
Gateway accounting file configuration (config-gw-accounting-file)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced.
12.4(15)XY	This command was added to gateway accounting file configuration mode.
12.4(20)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(20)T.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to collect only the voice attributes that are defined in an accounting template. The accounting template is a text file that you create by selecting specific attributes that are applicable to your billing needs. Use the call accounting-template voice command to define your accounting template before using theacct - template command.

The show call accounting-template voice master command displays all the voice attributes that can be filtered by accounting templates.

Use the callhistory-detail keyword to send all voice VSAs to the accounting server. For a description of supported voice VSAs, see the "VSAs Supported by Cisco Voice Products" section in the RADIUS VSA Voice Implementation Guide .

When you send only those VSAs defined in your accounting template, the default call-history records that are created by the service provider are automatically suppressed.

Examples

The example below uses the acct-template command to specify temp-global, a custom template.


gw-accounting aaa
 acct-template temp-global

address-family (tgrep)

To set the global address family to be used on all dial peers, use the address-family command in TGREP configuration mode. To change back to the default address family, use the no form of this command.

address family {e164 | decimal | penta-decimal}

no address family {e164 | decimal | penta-decimal}

Syntax Description


e164	E.164 address family.
decimal	Digital address family.
penta-decimal	Pentadecimal address family.

Command Default

E.164 address family

Command Modes

TGREP configuration (config-tgrep)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.3(1)	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The E. 164 address family is used if the telephony network is a public telephony network. Decimal and pentadecimal options can be used to advertise private dial plans. For example, if a company wants to use TRIP in within its enterprise telephony network using five-digit extensions, then the gateway would advertise the beginning digits of the private numbers as a decimal address family. These calls cannot be sent out of the company’s private telephony network because they are not E.164-compliant.

The pentadecimal family allows numbers 0 through 9 and alphabetic characters A through E and can be used in countries where letters are also carried in the called number.

Examples

The following example shows that the address family for itad 1234 is set for E.164 addresses:


Router(config)# tgrep local-itad 1234
Router(config-tgrep)# address family e164

Related Commands


Command	Description
tgrep local-itad	Enters TGREP configuration mode and defines an ITAD.

address-hiding

To hide signaling and media peer addresses from endpoints other than the gateway, use the address-hiding command in voice service voip configuration mode. To allow the peer address known to all endpoints, use the no form of this command.

address-hiding

no address-hiding

Syntax Description

There are no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

Signaling and media addresses are visible to all endpoints.

Command Modes

Voice service voip configuration (config-voi-serv)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.4(9)T	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

All SIP methods or messages must terminate at IP-to-IP gateway and re-originate with IP-to-IP gateway address, address-hiding makes the peer address known only to the IP-to-IP gateway. Hiding address in flow-through mode is required for SIP-to-SIP in an IP-to-IP gateway network.

This command modifies specific supplementary service headers and changes them appropriately from the in-leg to the out-leg.

Those headers include the following:

Refer-To
Referred-by
3xx response contact header
History-Info
Diversion

In these headers, an inside IP would be silently passed from the in-leg to the out-leg by an IP-to-IP gateway resulting in inside IP being sent to the ITSP/Public Internet. When configured with address-hiding the IP-to-IP gateway specifically looks for and changes those headers appropriately to mask the inside IP with its own.

Note

Distinctive ringing headers include ringing information and server address where the ringtone can be obtained. These headers are forwarded as is to the peer side even if address hiding is enabled.

Examples

The following example shows address-hiding being configured for all VoIP calls:

Router(config)# voice service voip 
Router(config-voi-serv)# address-hiding

Related Commands


Command	Description
voice service	Enters voice service configuration mode.

Command History


Release	Modification
12.3(1)	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

If you specify e164 , decimal or penta-decimal for the address family, you can stipulate whether the related carrier or trunk-group parameters are advertised. If you stipulate carrier or trunk-group for the address family, you can stipulate that the related address family prefix is advertised. If you stipulate carrier or trunk-group for the address family, you cannot stipulate carrier or trunk-group attributes for advertising.

When the no version of this command is used, it turns off the advertisement of that particular address family altogether.

Examples

The following example shows that the E.164 address family with call success rate, available circuits, total circuits, and trunk group attributes is being advertised for ITAD 1234:


Router(config)# tgrep local-itad 1234
Router(config-tgrep)# advertise e164 csr ac tc trunk-group

no anat system

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

ANAT is enabled on SIP trunks.

Command Modes

Voice service voip-sip configuration (conf-serv-sip)

Dial peer configuration (config-dial-peer)

Voice class tenant configuration (config-class)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.4(22)T	This command was introduced.
15.6(2)T and IOS XE Denali 16.3.1	This command was modified to include the keyword: system . This command is now available under voice class tenants.

Usage Guidelines

Both the Cisco IOS SIP gateway and the Cisco Unified Border Element are required to support Session Description Protocol (SDP) ANAT semantics for SIP IPv6 sessions. SDP ANAT semantics are intended to address scenarios that involve different network address families (for example, different IP versions). Media lines grouped using ANAT semantics provide alternative network addresses of different families for a single logical media stream. The entity creating a session description with an ANAT group must be ready to receive or send media over any of the grouped "m" lines.

By default, ANAT is enabled on SIP trunks. However, if the SIP gateway is configured in IPv4-only or IPv6-only mode, the gateway will not use ANAT semantics in its SDP offer.

Examples

The following example enables ANAT on a SIP trunk:


Router(conf-serv-sip)# anat

The following example shows ANAT being configured per tenant:

Router(config-class)# anat system

ani mapping

To preprogram the Numbering Plan Area (NPA), or area code, into a single Multi Frequency (MF) digit, use the ani mapping command in voice-port configuration mode. To disable Automatic Number Identification (ANI) mapping, use the no form of this command.

ani mapping npd-value npa-number

no ani mapping

Syntax Description


`npd-value`	Value of the Numbering Plan Digit (NPD). Range is 0 to 3. There is no default.
`npa-number`	Number (area code) of the NPA. Range is 100 to 999. There is no default value.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Voice-port configuration (config-voiceport)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(11)T	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The ani mapping command table translates the NPA into a single MF digit. The number of NPDs programmed is determined by local policy as well as by the number of NPAs that the public service answering point (PSAP) serves. Repeat this command until all NPDs are configured or until the NPD maximum range is reached.

Examples

The following example shows the voice port preprogramming the NPA into a single MF digit:


voice-port 1/1/0
 timing digit 100
 timing inter-digit 100
 ani mapping 1 408
 signal cama KP-NPD-NXX-XXXX-ST
!
voice-port 1/1/1

answer-address

To specify the full E.164 telephone number to be used to identify the dial peer of an incoming call, use the answer-address command in dial-peer configuration mode. To disable the configured telephone number, use the no form of this command.

answer-address [+]string [T]

no answer-address

Syntax Description

+

(Optional) Character that indicates an E.164 standard number.

string

Series of digits that specify a pattern for the E.164 or private dialing plan telephone number. Valid entries are the digits 0 through 9, the letters A through D, and the following special characters:

The asterisk (*) and pound sign (#) that appear on standard touch-tone dial pads.
Comma (,), which inserts a pause between digits.
Period (.), which matches any entered digit (this character is used as a wildcard).
Percent sign (%), which indicates that the preceding digit occurred zero or more times; similar to the wildcard usage.
Plus sign (+), which indicates that the preceding digit occurred one or more times.

Note

The plus sign used as part of a digit string is different from the plus sign that can be used in front of a digit string to indicate that the string is an E.164 standard number.

Circumflex (^), which indicates a match to the beginning of the string.
Dollar sign ($), which matches the null string at the end of the input string.
Backslash symbol (\), which is followed by a single character, and matches that character. Can be used with a single character with no other significance (matching that character).
Question mark (?), which indicates that the preceding digit occurred zero or one time.
Brackets ( [ ] ), which indicate a range. A range is a sequence of characters enclosed in the brackets; only numeric characters from 0 to 9 are allowed in the range.
Parentheses ( ( ) ), which indicate a pattern and are the same as the regular expression rule.

T

(Optional) Control character that indicates that the destination-pattern value is a variable-length dial string. Using this control character enables the router to wait until all digits are received before routing the call.

Command Default

The default value is enabled with a null string

Command Modes

Dial peer configuration Router (config-dial-peer)

Command History


Release	Modification
11.3(1)T	This command was introduced on Cisco 3600 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

Use the answer-address command to identify the origin (or dial peer) of incoming calls from the IP network. Cisco IOS software identifies the dial peers of a call in one of two ways: by identifying either the interface through which the call is received or the telephone number configured with the answer-address command. In the absence of a configured telephone number, the peer associated with the interface is associated with the incoming call.

For calls that come in from a plain old telephone service (POTS) interface, the answer-address command is not used to select an incoming dial peer. The incoming POTS dial peer is selected on the basis of the port configured for that dial peer.

There are certain areas in the world (for example, certain European countries) where valid telephone numbers can vary in length. Use the optional control characterT to indicate that a particular answer-address value is a variable-length dial string. In this case, the system does not match the dialed numbers until the interdigit timeout value has expired.

Note

Cisco IOS software does not check the validity of the E.164 telephone number; it accepts any series of digits as a valid number.

Examples

The following example shows the E.164 telephone number 555-0104 as the dial peer of an incoming call being configured:


dial-peer voice 10 pots
 answer-address +5550104

Related Commands


Command	Description
destination-pattern	Specifies either the prefix or the full E.164 telephone number to be used for a dial peer.
port (dial peer)	Associates a dial peer with a specific port.

application (dial-peer)

To enable a specific application on a dial peer, use the application command in dial-peer configuration mode. To remove the application from the dial peer, use the no form of this command.

application application-name [out-bound]

no application application-name [out-bound]

Syntax Description


`application-name`	Name of the predefined application that you wish to enable on the dial peer. See the "Usage Guidelines" section for valid application names.
out-bound	(Optional) Outbound calls are handed off to the named application. This keyword is used for store-and-forward fax applications and VoiceXML applications.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Usage Guidelines

Use this command when configuring interactive voice response (IVR) or any of the IVR-related features to associate a predefined session application with an incoming POTS dial peer and an outgoing Multimedia Mail over IP (MMoIP) dial peer. Calls that use the incoming POTS dial peer and the outgoing MMoIP dial peer are handed off to the specified predefined session application.

Note

In Cisco IOS Release xx.x(x)X and later releases, the application name default refers to the application that supports OSP, call transfer, and call forwarding. The default session application in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T and earlier releases has been renamed default.old.c and can still be configure for specific dial peers through the application command or globally configured for all inbound dial peers through the call application global command.

For Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) and Simple Gateway Control Protocol (SGCP) networks, enter the application name in uppercase characters. For example, for MGCP networks, you would enter MGCPAPP for the application-name argument. The application can be applied only to POTS dial peers. Note that SGCP dial peers do not use dial-peer hunting.

Note

In Cisco IOS Release 12.2, you cannot mix SGCP and non-SGCP endpoints in the same T1 controller, nor can you mix SGCP and non-SGCP endpoints in the same DS0 group.

Note

MGCP scripting is not supported on the Cisco 1750 router or on Cisco 7200 series routers.

For H.323 networks, the application is defined by a Tool Command Language/interactive voice response (Tcl/IVR) filename and location. Incoming calls that use POTS dial peers and outgoing calls that use MMoIP dial peers are handed off to this application.

For Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) networks, use this command to associate a predefined session application. The default Tcl application (from the Cisco IOS image) for SIP is session and can be applied to both VoIP and POTS dial peers.

Examples

The following example defines an application and applies it to an outbound MMoIP dial peer for the fax on-ramp operation:


call application voice fax_on_vfc_onramp http://santa/username/clid_4digits_npw_3.tcl
dial-peer voice 3 mmoip
 application fax_on_vfc_onramp out-bound
 destination-pattern 57108..
 session target mailto:$d$@mail-server.cisco.com

The following example applies the MGCP application to a dial peer:


dial-peer voice 1 pots
 application MGCPAPP

The following example applies a predefined application to an incoming POTS dial peer:


dial-peer voice 100 pots
 application c4

The following example applies a predefined application to an outbound MMoIP dial peer for the on-ramp operation:


dial-peer voice 3 mmoip
 application fax_on_vfc_onramp_ap out-bound
 destination-pattern 57108..
 session target mailto:$d$@mail-server.cisco.com

The following example applies the predefined SIP application to a dial peer:


dial-peer voice 10 pots
 application session

For Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T, MCID was added as a valid application-name argument. The following is a sample configuration using the MCID application name:


call application voice mcid http://santa/username/app_mcid_dtmf.2.0.0.28.tcl

Command History


Release	Modification
11.3(6)Q,	This command was introduced.
11.3(7)NA	This command was introduced.
12.0(3)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(3)T.

Usage Guidelines

Use the arqreject-unknown-prefix command to configure the gatekeeper to reject any incoming ARQs for a destination E.164 address that does not match any of the configured zone prefixes.

When an endpoint or gateway initiates an H.323 call, it sends an ARQ to its gatekeeper. The gatekeeper uses the configured list of zone prefixes to determine where to direct the call. If the called address does not match any of the known zone prefixes, the gatekeeper attempts to hairpin the call out through a local gateway. If you do not want your gateway to do this, then use the arqreject-unknown-prefix command. (The term hairpin is used in telephony. It means to send a call back in the direction from which it came. For example, if a call cannot be routed over IP to a gateway that is closer to the target phone, the call is typically sent back out through the local zone, back the way it came.)

This command is typically used to either restrict local gateway calls to a known set of prefixes or deliberately fail such calls so that an alternate choice on a gateway’s rotary dial peer is selected.

Examples

Consider a gatekeeper configured as follows:


zone local gk408 cisco.com
zone remote gk415 cisco.com 172.21.139.91
zone prefix gk408 1408.......
zone prefix gk415 1415.......

In this example configuration, the gatekeeper manages a zone containing gateways to the 408 area code, and it knows about a peer gatekeeper that has gateways to the 415 area code. Using the zoneprefix command, the gatekeeper is then configured with the appropriate prefixes so that calls to those area codes hop off in the optimal zone.

If the arqrequest - unknown - prefix command is not configured, the gatekeeper handles calls in the following way:

A call to the 408 area code is routed out through a local gateway.
A call to the 415 area code is routed to the gk415 zone, where it hops off on a local gateway.
A call to the 212 area code is routed to a local gateway in the gk408 zone.

If the arqreject-unknown-prefix command is configured, the gatekeeper handles calls in the following way:

A call to the 408 area code is routed out through a local gateway.
A call to the 415 area code is routed to the gk415 zone, where it hops off on a local gateway.
A call to the 212 area code is rejected because the destination address does not match any configured prefix.

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(4)T	This command was introduced.
12.2(11)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)T and support was added for the Cisco AS5300 platform.
12.2(13)T1	This command was implemented on the Cisco AS5850.
12.2(15)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release xx.x(x)X and implemented on the Cisco 2420, Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3600 series, and Cisco 3700 series; Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 network access server (NAS) platforms.

Usage Guidelines

A maximum of two local IP addresses can be specified. (Note that SCTP has built-in support for multihomed machines.)

Note

All of the ASPs in an application server must be removed before an application server can be unconfigured.

The default value of the SCTP streams is determined by the hardware that you have installed. The value of the failover timer is found in the showiuaasall command output.

The number of streams to assign to a given association is implementation dependent. During the initialization of the IUA association, you need to specify the total number of streams that can be used. Each D channel is associated with a specific stream within the association. With multiple trunk group support, every interface can potentially be a separate D channel.

At startup, the IUA code checks for all the possible T1, E1, or T3 interfaces and sets the total number of inbound and outbound streams supported accordingly. In most cases, there is only a need for one association between the gateway (GW) and the Media Gateway Controller (MGC). For the rare case that you are configuring multiple AS associations to various MGCs, the overhead from the unused streams would have minimal impact. The NFAS D channels are configured for one or more interfaces, where each interface is assigned a unique stream ID.

The total number of streams for the association needs to include an additional stream for the SCTP management messages. So during startup, the IUA code adds one to the total number of interfaces (streams) found.

You have the option to manually configure the number of streams per association. In the backhaul scenario, if the number of D channel links is limited to one, allowing the number of streams to be configurable avoids the unnecessary allocation of streams in an association that is never used. For multiple associations between a GW and multiple MGCs, the configuration utility is useful in providing only the necessary number of streams per association. The overhead from the streams allocated but not used in the association is negligible.

If the number of streams is manually configured through the CLI, the IUA code cannot distinguish between a startup event, which automatically sets the streams to the number of interfaces, or if the value is set manually during runtime. If you are configuring the number of SCTP streams manually, you must add one plus the number of interfaces using the sctp-streams keyword. Otherwise, IUA needs to always add one for the management stream, and the total number of streams increments by one after every reload.

When you set the SCTP stream with the CLI, you cannot change the inbound and outbound stream support once the association is established with SCTP. The value takes effect when you first remove the IUA AS configuration and then configure it back as the same application server or a new one. The other option is to reload the router.

Examples

An application server and the application server process (ASP) should be configured first to allow a National ISDN-2 with Cisco extensions (NI2+) to be bound to this transport layer protocol. The application server is a logical representation of the SCTP local endpoint. The local endpoint can have more than one IP address but must use the same port number.

The following is an example of an application server configuration on a gateway. The configuration shows that an application server named as5400-3 is configured to use two local IP addresses and a port number of 2577:


Router(config-iua)# as as5400-3 10.1.2.34 10.1.2.35 2577

The following output shows that the application server (as1) is defined for backhaul:


AS as1 10.21.0.2 9900

no asp asp-name

Syntax Description


`asp-name`	Names the current ASP.
as	The application server to which the ASP belongs.
`as-name`	Name of the application server to which the ASP belongs.
`remoteip1`	(Optional) Designates the remote IP address for this Simple Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) association.
`remoteip2`	Designates the remote IP address for this SCTP association.
remote-sctp-port	Connects to a remote SCTP port rather than the IUA well-known port.
ip-precedence	(Optional) Sets IP Precedence bits for protocol data units (PDUs). IP precedence is expressed in the type of service (ToS) field of theshowipsctpassociationparameters output. The default type of service (ToS) value is 0. Valid precedence values range from 0 to 7. You can also use the default IP precedence value for this address by choosing the default option.
sctp-keepalives	(Optional) Modifies the keepalive behavior of an IP address in a particular ASP. Valid keepalive interval values range from 1000 to 60000. The default value is 500 ms (see the showipsctpassociationparameters output under heartbeats ).

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(4)T	This command was introduced.
12.2(8)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T and support was added for the Cisco AS5300.
12.2(11)T1	This command was implemented on the Cisco AS5850.
12.2(15)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T and implemented on the Cisco 2420, Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3600 series, and Cisco 3700 series; and Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 network access server (NAS) platforms.

Usage Guidelines

This command establishes SCTP associations. There can be only a maximum of three ASPs configured per AS. IP precedence is expressed in the ToS field of showipsctpassociationparameters output. The default ToS value is 0.

Note

All of the ASPs in an application server must be removed before an application serever can be unconfigured.

You can configure the precedence value in IUA in the range of 0 to 7 for a given IP address. Within IUA, the upper three bits representing the IP precedence in the ToS byte (used in the IP header) is set based on the user input before passing down the value to SCTP. In turn, SCTP passes the ToS byte value to IP. The default value is 0 for "normal" IP precedence handling.

The asp-name argument specifies the name of this ASP. Theip-precedence keyword sets the precedence and ToS field. The remote-ip-address argument specifies the IP address of the remote end-point (the address of MGC, for example). The number argument can be any IP precedence bits in the range 1 to 255.

The no form of the command results in precedence bits not being explicitly set by SCTP.

In the case of a hot-standby Cisco PGW2200 pair, from the gateway (GW) perspective there is usually one ASP active and another in the INACTIVE state. The ASP_UP message is used to bring the ASP state on the GW to the INACTIVE state, followed by the ASPTM message, ASP_ACTIVE to ready the IUA link for data exchange. (Eventually the QPTM Establish Request message actually initiates the start of the D channel for the given interface.) In the event that the GW detects a failure on the active ASP, it can send a NTFY message to the standby ASP to request that it become active.

Examples

An ASP can be viewed as a local representation of an SCTP association because it specifies a remote endpoint that is in communication with an AS local endpoint. An ASP is defined for a given AS. For example, the following configuration defines a remote signaling controller asp-name at two IP addresses for AS as1. The remote SCTP port number is 2577:


Router(config-iua)# as as1 10.4.8.69, 10.4.9.69 2477
Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as as1 10.4.8.68 10.4.9.68 2577

Multiple ASPs can be defined for a single AS for the purpose of redundancy, but only one ASP can be active. The ASPs are inactive and only become active after fail-over.

In the Cisco Media Gateway Controller (MGC) solution, a signaling controller is always the client that initiates the association with a gateway. During the initiation phase, you can request outbound and inbound stream numbers, but the gateway only allows a number that is at least one digit higher than the number of interfaces (T1/E1) allowed for the platform.

The following example specifies the IP precedence level on the specified IP address. This example uses IP precedence level 7, which is the maximum level allowed:


Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as ip-precedence 10.1.2.345 7

The following example specifies the IP address to enable and disable keepalives:


Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as sctp-keepalive 10.1.2.34

The following example specifies the keepalive interval in milliseconds. In this example, the maximum value of 60000 ms is used:


Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as sctp-keepalive 10.10.10.10 60000

The following example specifies the IP address for the SCTP maximum association and the maximum association value. In this example, a maximum value of 20 is used:


Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as sctp-max-association 10.10.10.10 20

The following example specifies the IP address for the SCTP path retransmission and the maximum path retransmission value. In this example, a maximum value of 20 is used:


Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as sctp-path-retransmissions 10.10.10.10 10

The following example specifies the IP address for SCTP T3 timeout and specifies the T3 timeout value in milliseconds. In this example, the maximum value of 60000 is used:


Router(config-iua)# asp asp1 as sctp-t3-timeout 10.10.10.10 60000

audio

To enable the incoming and outgoing IP-IP call gain/loss feature for audio volume control on the incoming dial peer and the outgoing dial peer, enter the audio command in dial-peer configuration mode. To disable this feature, use theno form of this command.

audio {incoming | outgoing} level adjustment value

no audio {incoming | outgoing} level adjustment value

Syntax Description


incoming	Enables the incoming IP-IP call volume control on either the incoming dial peer or the outgoing dial peer.
outgoing	Enables the outgoing IP-IP call volume control on either the incoming dial peer or the outgoing dial peer.
`value`	Range is -27 to 16.

Command Default

This command is disabled by default, and there is no volume control available.

Command Modes

Dial peer configuration (config-dial-peer)

Command History


Release	Modification
15.0(1)M	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

This feature enables the adjustment of the audio volume within a Cisco Unified Border Element (Cisco UBE) call. As with codec repacketization, dissimilar networks that have different built-in loss/gain characteristics may experience connectivity problems. By adding the ability to control the loss/gain within the Cisco UBE, you can more easily connect your networks.

The DSP requires one level for each stream, so the value for audio incoming level-adjustment and the value for audio outgoing level-adjustment will be added together. If the combined values are outside of the limit the DSP can perform, the value sent to the DSP will be either the minimum (-27) or maximum (+16) supported by the DSP.

Caution

For gain/loss control, be aware that adding gain in a network with echo can generate feedback loud enough to cause hearing damage. Always exercise extreme caution when configuring gain into your network.

To configure IP-IP Call Gain/Loss Control on a voice gateway, you must configure the incoming and outgoing VoIP dial peers.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure audio incoming level to 5 and the audio outgoing level to -5:


Router(config-dial-peer)# audio incoming level-adjustment 5
Router(config-dial-peer)# audio outgoing level-adjustment -5

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)T. This command is supported on the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, Cisco AS5800, and Cisco AS5850 in this release.

12.4(15)T

The name argument was modified to accept an HTTPS server URL.

Usage Guidelines

The first time the interactive voice response (IVR) application plays a prompt, it reads it from the URL (or the specified location for the .au file, such as Flash or FTP) into RAM. Then it plays the script from RAM. An example of the sequence of events follows:

When the first caller is asked to enter the account and personal identification numbers (PINs), the enter_account.au and enter_pin.au files are loaded into RAM from Flash memory.
When the next call comes in, these prompts are played from the RAM copy.
If all callers enter valid account numbers and PINs, the auth_failed.au file is not loaded from Flash memory into RAM.

The router loads the audio file only when the script initially plays that prompt after the router restarts. If the audio file is changed, you must run this privileged EXEC command to reread the file. This generates an error message if the file is not accessible or if there is a format error.

Examples

The following example shows how to load the enter_pin.au audio file from Flash memory into RAM:


audio-prompt load flash:enter_pin.au

The following example shows how to load the hello.au audio file from an HTTPS server into RAM:


audio-prompt load https://http-server1/audio/hello.au

authenticate redirecting-number

To enable a Cisco IOS voice gateway to authenticate and pass Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) credentials based on the redirecting number when available instead of the calling number of a forwarded call, use the authenticateredirecting-number command in voice service SIP configuration mode or voice class tenant configuration mode. To return a Cisco IOS voice gateway to the default setting so that the gateway uses only the calling number for SIP credentials, use the no form of this command.

authenticate redirecting-number system

no authenticate redirecting-number

Syntax Description


system	Specifies that the authenticate redirecting-number use the global forced CLI setting. This keyword is available only for the tenant configuration mode.

Command Default

The Cisco IOS voice gateway uses only the calling number of a forwarded call for SIP credentials even when the redirecting number information is available for that call.

Command Modes

Voice service SIP configuration (conf-serv-sip)

Voice class tenant configuration (config-class)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.4(24)T	This command was introduced.
15.6(2)T and IOS XE Denali 16.3.1	This command was modified to include the keyword: system . This command is now available under voice class tenants.

Usage Guidelines

When an INVITE message sent out by the gateway is challenged, it must respond with the appropriate SIP credentials before the call is established. The default global behavior for the gateway is to authenticate and pass SIP credentials based on the calling number and all dial peers on a gateway default to the global setting. However, for forwarded calls, it is sometimes more appropriate to use the redirecting number and this can be specified at either the global or dial peer level (configuring behavior for a specific dial peer supersedes the global setting).

Use the authenticateredirecting-number command in voice service SIP configuration mode to globally enable a Cisco IOS voice gateway to authenticate and pass SIP credentials based on the redirecting number when available. Use the no form of this command to configure the gateway to authenticate and pass SIP credentials based only on the calling number of forwarded calls unless otherwise configured at the dial peer level:

Use the voice-classsipauthenticateredirecting-number command in dial peer voice configuration mode to supersede global settings and force a specific dial peer on the gateway to authenticate and pass SIP credentials based on the redirecting number when available.
Use the no form of the voice-classsipauthenticateredirecting-number command in dial peer voice configuration mode to supersede global settings and force a specific dial peer on the gateway to authenticate and pass SIP credentials based only on the calling number regardless of the global setting.

The redirecting number is present only in the headers of forwarded calls. When this command is disabled or the redirecting number is not available (nonforwarded calls), the gateway uses the calling number for SIP credentials.

Examples

The following example shows how to globally enable a Cisco IOS voice gateway to authenticate and pass the redirecting number of a forwarded call when a SIP INVITE message is challenged:


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(conf-voi-serv)# sip
Router(conf-serv-sip)# authenticate redirecting-number

The following example shows how to authenticate a re-directed number in the voice class tenant configuration mode:

Router(config-class)# authenticate redirecting-number system

authentication username username password { 0| 6| 7} password [realm realm [challenge]]

no authentication {username username password { 0| 6| 7} password [realm realm [challenge]] | all}

Syntax Description

username

Specifies the username for the user who is providing authentication.

username

A string representing the username for the user who is providing authentication. A username must be at least four characters.

password

Specifies password settings for authentication.

0

Specifies encryption type as cleartext (no encryption).

realm

(Optional) Specifies the domain where the credentials are applicable.

realm

(Optional) A string representing the domain where the credentials are applicable.

all

(Optional) Specifies all the authentication entries for the user (dial-peer).

Command Default

Command History


Release	Modification
12.3(8)T	This command was introduced.
15.1(3)T	This command was modified. The challenge keyword was added.
15.2(3)T	This command was modified. The all keyword was added to the no form of the command.
IOS XE 16.11.1a	Secure reversible encryption for passwords using type 6 Advanced Encryption Scheme (AES) was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The following configuration rules are applicable when enabling digest authentication:

Only one username can be configured per dial peer. Any existing username configuration must be removed before configuring a different username.
A maximum of five password or realm arguments can be configured for any one username.

The username and password arguments are used to authenticate a user. An authenticating server/proxy issuing a 407/401 challenge response includes a realm in the challenge response and the user provides credentials that are valid for that realm. Because it is assumed that a maximum of five proxy servers in the signaling path can try to authenticate a given request from a user-agent client (UAC) to a user-agent server (UAS), a user can configure up to five password and realm combinations for a configured username.

Note

The user provides the password in plain text but it is encrypted and saved for 401 challenge response. If the password is not saved in encrypted form, a junk password is sent and the authentication fails.

The realm specification is optional. If omitted, the password configured for that username applies to all realms that attempt to authenticate.
Only one password can be configured at a time for all configured realms. If a new password is configured, it overwrites any previously configured password.

This means that only one global password (one without a specified realm) can be configured. If you configure a new password without configuring a corresponding realm, the new password overwrites the previous one.

If a realm is configured for a previously configured username and password, that realm specification is added to that existing username and password configuration. However, once a realm is added to a username and password configuration, that username and password combination is valid only for that realm. A configured realm cannot be removed from a username and password configuration without first removing the entire configuration for that username and password--you can then reconfigure that username and password combination with or without a different realm.
In an entry with both a password and realm, you can change either the password or realm.
Use the no authentication all command to remove all the authentication entries for the user.

It is mandatory to specify the encryption type for the password. If a clear text password (type 0 ) is configured, it is encrypted as type 6 before saving it to the running configuration.

If you specify the encryption type as 6 or 7 , the entered password is checked against a valid type 6 or 7 password format and saved as type 6 or 7 respectively.

Type-6 passwords are encrypted using AES cipher and a user-defined primary key. These passwords are comparatively more secure. The primary key is never displayed in the configuration. Without the knowledge of the primary key, type 6 passwords are unusable. If the primary key is modified, the password that is saved as type 6 is re-encrypted with the new primary key. If the primary key configuration is removed, the type 6 passwords cannot be decrypted, which may result in the authentication failure for calls and registrations.

Note

When backing up a configuration or migrating the configuration to another device, the primary key is not dumped. Hence the primary key must be configured again manually.

To configure an encrypted preshared key, see Configuring an Encrypted Preshared Key.

Note

The encryption type 7 is supported in IOS XE Release 16.11.1a, but will be deprecated in the later releases. Following warning message is displayed when encryption type 7 is configured.

Warning: Command has been added to the configuration using a type 7 password. However, type 7 passwords will soon be deprecated. Migrate to a supported password type 6.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the digest authentication:


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# dial-peer voice 1 pots
Router(config-dial-peer)# authentication username MyUser password 6 MyPassword realm MyRealm.example.com

The following example shows how to remove a previously configured digest authentication:


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# dial-peer voice 1 pots
Router(config-dial-peer)# no authentication username MyUser 6 password MyPassword

Specify a RADIUS server before using the accounting command.

There are three different methods of accounting. The H.323 method sends the call detail record (CDR) to the RADIUS server, the syslog method uses the system logging facility to record the CDRs, and the VSA method collects VSAs.

Examples

The following example enables the gateway to report user activity to the RADIUS server in the form of connection accounting records:


aaa accounting connection start-stop group radius
gatekeeper
 accounting

The following example shows how to enable VSA accounting:


aaa accounting connection start-stop group radius
gatekeeper
 accounting exec vsa

The following example configures H.323 accounting using IETF RADIUS attributes:


Router(config-gk)# accounting 
username
 h323id

The following example configures H.323 accounting using VSA RADIUS attributes:

Router(config-gk)# accounting vsa
