Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Q Signaling Configuration

The Q Signaling (QSIG) protocol is a series of international standards that define services and signaling protocols for Private Integrated Services Networks (PISNs). In Cisco IP Communications Release 5.0(2) testing, a Cisco Unified CallManager cluster was connected through the QSIG to third-party PBXs and to another CallManager cluster.

This chapter provides an overview of the provisioning and configuration required for these connections. It also describes how calls are routed in a QSIG environment.

This chapter does not describe how QSIG features such as Call Back or Path Replacement work, nor does it explain why particular configuration values were used. It also does not provide detailed configuration instructions for third-party PBXs.

For additional information about QSIG, refer to the "Understanding IP Telephony Protocols" chapter in Cisco Unified CallManager System Guide, which is available at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_callmg/5_0/sys_ad/5_0_2/ccmsys/index.htm

This chapter includes the following topics:

•Overview

•Data Required to Provision QSIG PBXs

•Call Routing in a QSIG Environment

•Configuring QSIG Links and QSIG Intercluster Trunks

Overview

A Cisco Unified CallManager cluster was connected through QSIG to the following components:

•Third-party PBXs—Connection made via QSIG links (all PBXs interwork via Cisco Unified CallManager clusters)

•Another Cisco Unified CallManager cluster—Connection made via a QSIG intercluster trunk (QSIG ICT)

Figure 13-1 illustrates these connections.

Figure 13-1 QSIG Connections to a Cisco Unified CallManager Clusters

Data Required to Provision QSIG PBXs

Table 13-1 describes the information that was used to provision third-party QSIG PBXs.

The PBX 1 and PBX 2 columns in this table show information for two sample QSIG PBXs. This information demonstrates the routing features that are available in a QSIG environment. The Cisco Unified CallManager column shows corresponding information that applies to the Cisco Unified CallManager in the Large Multi-Site Centralized with SRST site model (CDG).

Note Local 4 digit dialling is limited to within the node. All calls between nodes must have the node number sent to route the call.

The "Call Routing in a QSIG Environment" section explains how calls are routed based on this information.

Call Routing in a QSIG Environment

The following sections describe how various calls are routed in a QSIG environment:

•Call from PBX 1 to PSTN

•Call from PBX 1 to Cisco Unified CallManager Cluster 1

•Call from PBX 1 to PBX 2

Call from PBX 1 to PSTN

A user in the PBX 1 domain can call the PSTN by dialing 9 and then the PSTN number

If the local PSTN connection is down or congested, or if the PBX does not have local PSTN access, the PSTN call can be routed via a designated alternate node through the QSIG trunk. In this case, only the PSTN number with the "9" prefix is sent across the QSIG trunk. Node numbers are not sent to route the call.

Call from PBX 1 to Cisco Unified CallManager Cluster 1

A user in the PBX 1 can call a user in the Cisco Unified CallManager Cluster 1 domain by dialing the node number followed by the extension. The call is routed directly to Cisco Unified CallManager Cluster 1 via the QSIG link 1.

If the direct QSIG link is down or congested, calls can be routed via a designated alternate node through the QSIG trunk. Node numbers are not sent to route the call.

Call from PBX 1 to PBX 2

A user in the PBX 1 domain can call a user in the PBX 2 domain by dialing the node number and extension in the PBX2 domain. The call is routed directly to PBX 2.

If the direct QSIG link is down or congested, calls can be routed via a designated alternate node through Cisco Unified CallManager. Node numbers are not sent to route the call.

Configuring QSIG Links and QSIG Intercluster Trunks

A Cisco Unified CallManager cluster in a QSIG environment is connected to other components in the following ways:

•QSIG link—Connects a Cisco Unified CallManager cluster to a third-party PBX

•QSIG intercluster trunk—Connects a Cisco Unified CallManager cluster to another Cisco Unified CallManager cluster

Table 13-2 lists the general procedures and references for configuring QSIG links.

Table 13-3 lists the general procedures and references configuring QSIG intercluster trunks.

Cisco Unified CallManager Configuration for QSIG-Related Service Parameters

You must configure QSIG-related service parameters whether you use QSIG link or QSIG intercluster trunk connections.

To access the Cisco Unified CallManager Administration web pages for configuring service parameters, choose Service > Service Parameters from the Cisco Unified CallManager Administration application. Then select the appropriate server and select Cisco CallManager as the service.

Table 13-4 describes the configuration settings in the Service Parameters Configuration page. Fields not shown in this table were set to the suggested values that are shown in the Service Parameters Configuration page.

Note The Path Replacement feature uses the PINX ID, which you configure in the Service Parameters Configuration page. A call pickup group also must be configured for this feature.

Cisco Catalyst 6500 Switch Configuration for QSIG Links

The Cisco Unified CallManager cluster is configured to connect to a QSIG PBX via a QSIG link. The connection to the QSIG PBX was made via a Cisco Communication Media Module (CMM) card located in a Cisco Catalyst 6500 switch. QSIG links from the QSIG PBX were connected to the CMM card.

This section shows a configuration file for the Cisco Catalyst 6500 switch that was used for the QSIG inks.

Cisco Unified CallManager Configuration for QSIG Links

The following sections describe the configurations that were made in Cisco Unified CallManager Administration for QSIG link connections:

•Gateway Configuration

•Route Group Configuration

•Route List Configuration

•Route Pattern Configuration

Note You must configure required partitions and calling search spaces before configuring the items that are described in the following sections. For additional information, see "Cisco Unified CallManager Configuration."

Gateway Configuration

The CMM card installed in the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Switch serves as the gateway through which the QSIG link to the QSIG PBX is connected. This section shows how the CallManager cluster was configured to control the CCM card.

To access the Cisco Unified CallManager Administration web pages for adding and configuring gateways, choose Device > Gateway from the Cisco Unified CallManager Administration application.

Table 13-5 describes how a the CMM card was configured in the Gateway Configuration page.

After the gateway is configured, configure the interfaces where the QSIG links to the PBX are connected on the gateway. Three such interfaces were configured: S1/DS1-3, S1/DS1-4, and S1/DS1-5. Table 13-6 describes how the S1/DS1-3 interface was configured. The other interfaces were configured similarly.

Cisco Unified CallManager Configuration for QSIG Intercluster Trunks

This sections describes the configurations that were made in Cisco Unified CallManager Administration for QSIG intercluster trunk connections.

To access the Cisco Unified CallManager Administration web pages for configuring trunks, choose Device > Trunk from the Cisco Unified CallManager Administration application.

Table 13-9 describes how the intercluster trunk was configured in the Trunk Configuration page.

A similar intercluster was configured in Cisco Unified CallManager Cluster 2. This configuration includes the IP addresses of the Cisco Unified CallManager Cluster 1 servers in the Remote Cisco Unified CallManager Information fields.
