This chapter contains commands to configure and maintain Cisco IOS voice applications. The commands are presented in alphabetical order. Some commands required for configuring voice may be found in other Cisco IOS command references. Use the command reference master index or search online to find these commands.

For detailed information on how to configure these applications and features, refer to the Cisco IOS Voice Configuration Guide.

signal

To specify the type of signaling for a voice port, use the signal command in voice-port configuration mode. To reset to the default, use the no form of this command.

FXO and FXS Voice Ports

signal {loop-start | ground-start}

no signal {loop-start | ground-start}

E&M Voice Ports

signal {wink-start | immediate | delay-dial}

no signal {wink-start | immediate | delay-dial}

Centralized Automatic Message Accounting (CAMA) Ports

signal {cama {kp-0-nxx-xxxx-st | kp-0-npa-nxx-xxxx-st | kp-2-st | kp-npd-nxx-xxxx-st}
|
groundstart | loopstart}

no signal {cama {kp-0-nxx-xxxx-st | kp-0-npa-nxx-xxxx-st | kp-2-st | kp-npd-nxx-xxxx-st} | groundstart | loopstart}

Syntax Description

cama

Selects and configures the port for 911 calls.

delay-dial

The calling side seizes the line by going off-hook on its E-lead. After a timing interval, the calling side looks at the supervision from the called side. If the supervision is on-hook, the calling side starts sending information as DTMF digits; otherwise, the calling side waits until the called side goes on-hook and then starts sending address information. Used for E&M tie trunk interfaces.

ground-start

Ground start signaling. Used for FXO and FXS interfaces. Ground start signalling allows both sides of a connection to place a call and to hang up.

immediate

The calling side seizes the line by going off-hook on its E-lead and sends address information as DTMF digits. Used for E&M tie trunk interfaces.

kp-0-npa-nxx-xxxx-st

10-digit transmission. The E.164 number is fully transmitted.

kp-0-nxx-xxxx-st

7-digit ANI transmission. The Numbering Plan Area (NPA) or area code is implied by the trunk group and is not transmitted.

kp-2-st

Default transmission when the CAMA trunk cannot get a corresponding NPD digit in the look-up table, or when the calling number is fewer than 10 digits. (NPA digits are not available.)

kp-npd-nxx-xxx-st

8-digit ANI transmission, where the Numbering Plan Digit (NPD) is a single MF digit that is expanded into the NPA. The NPD table is preprogrammed in the sending and receiving equipment (on each end of the MF trunk); for example: 0= 415, 1=510, 2=650, 3=916

05551234 = (415) 555-1234, 15551234 = (510) 555-1234, and so on. NPD range is from 0 to 3.

loop-start

Loop start signaling. Used for Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) and Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) interfaces. With loop start signaling, only one side of a connection can hang up. This is the default setting for FXO and FXS voice ports.

wink-start

The calling side seizes the line by going off-hook on its E-lead then waits for a short off-hook "wink" indication on its M-lead from the called side before sending address information as dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) digits. Used for E&M tie trunk interfaces. This is the default setting for E&M voice ports.


Defaults

FXO and FXS interfaces: loop-start
E&M interfaces: wink-start
CAMA interfaces: loop-start

Command History

Modification

11.3(1)T

This command was introduced on the Cisco 3600 series.

12.2(11)T

This command was modified to support ANI transmission.


Usage Guidelines

This command applies to analog voice ports only.

Using the signal command for an FXO or FXS voice port changes the signal value for both voice ports on a voice port module (VPM) card.


Note If you change the signal type for an FXO voice port on Cisco 3600 series routers, you need to move the appropriate jumper in the voice interface card of the voice network module. For more information about the physical characteristics of the voice network module, refer to the installation documentation, Voice Network Module and Voice Interface Card Configuration Note, that came with your voice network module.


Configuring this command for an E&M voice port changes only the signal value for the selected voice port. In either case, the voice port must be shut down and then activated before the configured values take effect.

Some PBXs miss initial digits if the E&M voice port is configured for immediate signaling. If this occurs, use delay-dial signaling instead. Some non-Cisco devices have a limited number of DTMF receivers. This type of equipment must delay the calling side until a DTMF receiver is available.

To specify which VIC-2CAMA ports are designated as dedicated CAMA ports for emergency 911 calls, use the signal cama command. No two service areas in the existing North American telephony infrastructure supporting E911 calls have identical service implementations, and many of the factors that drive the design of emergency call handling are matters of local policy and therefore outside the scope of this document. Local policy determines which ANI format is appropriate for the specified PSAP location.

The following four types of ANI transmittal schemes are based on the actual number of digits transmitted toward the E911 tandem or the PSAP. In each instance, the actual calling number is proceeded with a key pulse (KP) followed by an information field (I) or a Numbering Plan Digit (NPD), which is then followed by the Automatic Number Identification (ANI) calling number, and finally followed by a start pulse (ST). The value 0 indicates that the single digit information field (I). ANI was provided by the private branch exchange (PBX). The value 2 indicates that ANI was not provided by the PBX.

7-digit transmission (kp-0-nxx-xxxx-st):

The calling phone number is transmitted, and the NPA is implied by the trunk group and not transmitted.

8-digit transmission (KP-npd-nxx-xxxx-st):

The I field consists of single-digit NPD-to-NPA mapping. When the calling party number of 415-555-2222 places a 911 call, and the Cisco 2600 series or Cisco 3600 series has an NPD (0) to NPA (415) mapping, the NPA signaling format is received by the selective router at the central office (CO).


Note NPD values greater than 3 are reserved for signifying error conditions.


10-digit transmission (kp-0-npa-nxx-xxxx-st):

The E.164 number is fully transmitted.

kp-2-st transmission (kp-2-st):

kp-2-st transmission is used if the PBX is unable to out-pulse the ANI. If the ANI received by the Cisco router is not as per configured values, kp-2-st is transmitted. For example, if the voice port is configured for outpulsing a 10-digit ANI and the 911 call it receives has a 7-digit calling party number, the router transmits kp-2-st.


Note Emergency 911 calls are not rejected for an ANI mismatch. The call establishes a voice path. The E911 network, however, does not receive the ANI.


Examples

The following example configures ground start signaling on the Cisco 3600 series as the signaling type for a voice port, which means that both sides of a connection can place a call and hang up:

voice-port 1/1/1
 signal ground-start

The following example configures a 10-digit ANI transmission:

Router(config)# voice-port 1/0/0
Router(config-voiceport)# signal cama kp-0-npa-nxxx-xxxx-st

12.1(3)T

This command was implemented on the Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3600 series.


Usage Guidelines

Before configuring the signaling pattern, you must use the voice-class permanent command in global configuration mode to create a voice class for the Cisco trunk or FRF.11 trunk. After you define the voice class, you assign it to a dial peer.

Idle Patterns

An idle state is generated if the router detects an idle signaling pattern coming from either direction. If an idle pattern is configured for only one direction (transmit or receive), an idle state can be detected only in the configured direction. Therefore, you should normally enter both the idle receive and the idle transmit keywords.

To suppress voice packets whenever the transmit or receive trunk is in the idle state, use the idle receive and idle transmit keywords in conjunction with the signal timing idle suppress-voice command.

OOS Patterns

An OOS state is generated differently in each direction under the following conditions:

If the router detects an oos transmit signaling pattern sent from the PBX, the router transmits the oos transmit signaling pattern to the network.

If the signal timing oos timeout timer expires and the router receives no signaling packets from the network (network is OOS), the router sends an oos receive signaling pattern to the PBX. (The oos receive pattern is not matched against the signaling packets received from the network; the receive packets indicate an OOS condition directly by setting the AIS alarm indication bit in the packet.)

To suppress voice packets whenever the transmit or receive trunk is in the OOS state, use the oos receive and oos transmit keywords in conjunction with the signal timing oos suppress-voice command.

To suppress voice and signaling packets whenever the transmit or receive trunk is in the OOS state, use the oos receive and oos transmit keywords in conjunction with the signal timing oos suppress-all command.

PBX Busyout

To "busy out" a PBX if the network connection fails, set the oos receive pattern to match the seized state (busy), and set the signal timing oos timeout value. When the timeout value expires and no signaling packets are received, the router sends the oos receive pattern to the PBX.

Use the busy seized pattern only if the PBX does not have a specified pattern for indicating an OOS state. If the PBX has a specific OOS pattern, use that pattern instead.

Examples

The following example, beginning in global configuration mode, configures the signaling bit pattern for the idle receive and transmit states:

voice class permanent 10 
 signal keepalive 3 
 signal pattern idle receive 0101 
 signal pattern idle transmit 0101 
 exit
dial-peer voice 100 vofr
 voice-class permanent 10

The following example, beginning in global configuration mode, configures the signaling bit pattern for the out-of-service receive and transmit states:

voice class permanent 10 
 signal keepalive 3 
 signal pattern oos receive 0001 
 signal pattern oos transmit 0001
 exit
dial-peer voice 100 vofr
 voice-class permanent 10

The following example restores default signaling bit patterns for the receive and transmit idle states:

voice class permanent 10 
 signal keepalive 3 
 signal timing idle suppress-voice 
 no signal pattern idle receive 
 no signal pattern idle transmit 
 exit
dial-peer voice 100 vofr
 voice-class permanent 10

The following example configures nondefault signaling bit patterns for the receive and transmit out-of-service states:

voice class permanent 10 
 signal keepalive 3 
 signal pattern oos receive 0001 
 signal pattern oos transmit 0001
 exit
dial-peer voice 100 vofr
 voice-class permanent 10

Usage Guidelines

Before configuring the idle or OOS signaling patterns to be sent, you must use the voice class permanent command in global configuration mode to create a voice class for the Cisco trunk or FRF.11 trunk. After you finish defining the voice class, you assign it to a dial peer.

Use the signal sequence oos command to specify which signaling pattern) to send. Use the signal pattern idle receive or the signal pattern oos receive command to define the bit patterns of the signaling patterns if other than the defaults.

12.1(3)T

This command was implemented on the Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3600 series.


Usage Guidelines

Before configuring the signal timing idle suppress-voice timer, you must use the voice class permanent command in global configuration mode to create a voice class for the Cisco trunk or FRF.11 trunk. The voice class must then be assigned to a dial peer.

The signal timing idle suppress-voice command is used when the signal-type command is set to transparent in the dial peer for the Cisco trunk or FRF.11 trunk connection. The router stops sending voice packets when the timer expires. Signaling packets are still sent.

To detect an idle trunk state, the router or concentrator monitors both transmit and receive signaling for the idle transmit and idle receive signaling patterns. These can be configured by the signal pattern idle transmit or signal pattern idle receive command, or they can be the defaults. The default idle receive pattern is the idle pattern of the local voice port. The default idle transmit pattern is the idle pattern of the far-end voice port.

Examples

The following example, beginning in global configuration mode, sets the signal timing idle suppress-voice timer to 5 seconds for the idle state on voice class 10.

voice class permanent 10
 signal keepalive 3 
 signal pattern idle receive 0101 
 signal pattern idle transmit 0101 
 signal timing idle suppress-voice 5
 exit
 dial-peer voice 100 vofr
 voice-class permanent 10
 signal-type transparent

The following example defines voice class 10, sets the idle detection time to 5 seconds, configures the trunk to use the default transmit and receive idle signal patterns, and applies the voice class configuration to VoFR dial peer 100.

voice class permanent 10
 signal keepalive 3 
 signal timing idle suppress-voice 5

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(4)T.

12.1(3)T

This command was implemented on the Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3600 series.


Usage Guidelines

Before configuring signal timing OOS parameters, you must use the voice class permanent command in global configuration mode to create a voice class for the Cisco trunk or FRF.11 trunk. After you finish defining the voice class, you assign it to a dial peer.

If no signaling packets are received for the specified delay period, the slave port returns to its initial standby state. The signal timing oos slave-standby command is valid only if both of the following conditions are true:

The signal timing oos timeout command is enabled, which controls the start time for the OOS state. The timer for the signal timing oos slave-standby command does not start until the trunk is OOS.

The voice port is configured as a slave port with the connection trunk digits answer-mode command.

Examples

The following example, beginning in global configuration mode, creates a voice port as a slave voice port, creates voice class 10, sets the OOS timeout time to 60 seconds, and sets the return-to-slave-standby time to 120 seconds:

voice-port 1/0/0
 connection trunk 5559262 answer-mode

signaling forward

To enable a Cisco IOS gateway to forward the Generic Transparency Descriptor (GTD) payload to another gateway or gatekeeper system-wide, use the signaling forward command in global configuration mode. To disable forwarding, use the no form of this command.

signaling forward {conditional | unconditional | none}

no signaling forward

Syntax Description

conditional

Changes the forwarding behavior on the basis of the target defined in the session target command. If the target is a non-Registration, Admission, and Status (RAS) target, the original signaling payload is forwarded to the H.323 endpoint using H.225 messages.

unconditional

Tunnels the GTD payload in the H.225 SETUP message to the final endpoint in the network. The gatekeeper sends its own GTD back to itself in this situation.

none

Prevents the gateway from forwarding the GTD payload to endpoints in the network.


Defaults

Signaling forwarding is conditional.

Command Modes

12.2(11)T

This command was introduced on the Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5850.


Usage Guidelines

This command is used with the Cisco PGW 2200 in the Cisco SS7 Interconnect for Voice Gateways solution. You must configure the Cisco PGW 2200 to encapsulate SS7 ISUP messages in GTD format before using this command on the Cisco gateway.

If the target is a RAS target, for a non-GTD signaling payload, the original payload is forwarded. For a GTD signaling payload, the payload is encapsulated in an admission request (ARQ)/disengage request (DRQ) message and sent to the originating gatekeeper. The gatekeeper conveys the payload to the Gatekeeper Transaction Message Protocol (GKTMP) and external route server for a flexible route decision based upon the ISDN User Part (ISUP) GTD parameters. The gateway then conditionally forwards the GTD payload on the basis of the instruction from the route server.

This command does not prevent sending the GTD to a gatekeeper. Any GTD on the originating gateway is sent to the gatekeeper for use in routing decisions. To prevent GTD creation, the signal-end-to-end command-line interface (CLI) option on the R2 interfaces should be disabled, and the Cisco PGW 2200 should be configured not to send GTD to the gateway.

Examples

The following example sets unconditional signal forwarding on a system-wide basis, where the GTD payload is tunneled in H.225 SETUP messages to endpoints:

Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(conf-voi-serv)# signaling forward unconditional
Router(conf-voi-serv)# ^Z

To set the signaling type to be used when connecting to a dial peer, use the signal-type command in dial-peer configuration mode. To reset to the default, use the no form of this command.

signal-type {cas | cept | ext-signal | transparent}

no signal-type

Syntax Description

cas

North American EIA-464 channel-associated signaling (robbed bit signaling). If the Digital T1 Packet Voice Trunk Network Module is installed, this option might not be available.

cept

Provides a basic E1 ABCD signaling protocol. Used primarily for E&M interfaces. When used with FXS/FXO interfaces, this protocol is equivalent to MELCAS.

ext-signal

External signaling. The digital signal processor (DSP) does not generate any signaling frames. Use this option when there is an external signaling channel, for example, CCS, or when you need to have a permanent "dumb" voice pipe.

transparent

On the Cisco MC3810, selecting this option produces different results depending on whether you are using a digital voice module (DVM) or an analog voice module (AVM).

For a DVM: The ABCD signaling bits are copied from or transported through the T1/E1 interface "transparently" without modification or interpretation. This enables the Cisco MC3810 to handle arbitrary or unknown signaling protocols.

For an AVM: It is not possible to provide "transparent" behavior because the Cisco MC3810 must interpret the signaling information in order to read and write the correct state to the analog hardware. This option is mapped to be equal to cas.

12.1(2)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(2)T.


Usage Guidelines

This command applies to Voice over Frame Relay (VoFR) and Voice over ATM (VoATM) dial peers. It is used with permanent connections only (Cisco trunks and FRF.11 trunks), not with switched calls.

This command is used to inform the local telephony interface of the type of signaling it should expect to receive from the far-end dial peer. To turn signaling off at this dial peer, select the ext-signal option. If signaling is turned off and there are no external signaling channels, a "hot" line exists, enabling this dial peer to connect to anything at the far end.

When you connect an FXS to another FXS, or if you have anything other than an FXS/FXO or E&M/E&M pair, the appropriate signaling type on Cisco 2600 and Cisco 3600 series routers is ext-signal (disabled).

If you have a digital E1 connection at the remote end that is running cept/MELCAS signaling and you then trunk that across to an analog port, you should make sure that you configure both ends for the cept signal type.

If you have a T1 or E1 connection at both ends and the T1/E1 is running a signaling protocol that is neither EIA-464, or cept/MELCAS, you might want to configure the signal type for the transparent option in order to pass through the signaling.

Examples

The following example disables signaling on a Cisco 2600series or Cisco 3600 series router or on a Cisco MC3810 for VoFR dial peer 200, starting from global configuration mode:

dial-peer voice 200 vofr

12.2(11)T

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


Usage Guidelines

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) on Cisco VoIP gateways uses DNS SRV queries to determine the IP address of the user endpoint. The query string has a prefix in the form of "protocol.transport." (RFC 2052) or "_protocol._transport." (RFC 2782). The selected string is then attached to the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the next hop SIP server.

By choosing the value of 1, this command provides compatibility with older equipment that supports only RFC 2052.

Examples

The following example sets up the srv version command in the RFC 2782 style (underscores surrounding the protocol):

Router(config)# sip-ua
Router(config-sip-ua)# srv version 2

ss7 session

To create a Reliable User Datagram Protocol (RUDP) session and explicitly add an RUDP session to a Signaling System 7 (SS7) session set, use the ss7 session command in global configuration mode. To delete the session, use the no form of this command.

ss7 session session-id address destination-address destinaion-port local-address local-port [session-set session-number]

no ss7 session session-id

Syntax Description

session-id

SS7 session number. Valid values are 0 and 1. You must enter a hyphen with no space following it after the session keyword.

address destination-address

Specifies the SS7 session IP address.

destination-address

The local IP address of the router in four-part dotted-decimal format.

The local IP address for both sessions, 0 and 1, must be the same.

destination-port

The number of the local UDP port on which the router expects to receive messages from the media gateway controller (MGC). Specify any UDP port that is not used by another protocol as defined in RFC 1700 and that is not otherwise used in your network.

The local UDP port must be different for session 0 and session 1.

Valid port ranges are from 1024 to 9999.

local-address

The remote IP address of the MGC in four-part dotted-decimal format.

local-port

The number of the remote UDP port on which the MGC is configured to listen. This UDP port cannot be used by another protocol as defined in RFC 1700 and cannot be otherwise used in the network. Valid port ranges are from 1024 to 9999.

12.1(1)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)T.

12.2(15)T

The session-set keyword and the session-number argument were added.


Usage Guidelines

For the Cisco 2600-based SLT, you can configure a maximum of four sessions, two for each Cisco SLT. In a redundant VSC configuration, session 0 and session 2 are configured to one VSC, and session 1 and session 3 are configured to the other. Session 0/1 and session 2/3 run to the Cisco SLT.

The VSC must be configured to send messages to the local port, and it must be configured to listen on the remote port. You must also reload the router whenever you remove a session or change the parameters of a session.

This command replaces the ss7 session-0 address and ss7 session-1 address commands, which contain hard-coded session numbers. The new command is used for the new dual Ethernet capability.

The new CLI supports both single and dual Ethernet configuration by being backward compatible with the previous session-0 and session-1 commands so that you can configure a single Ethernet instead of two, if needed.

For the Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400-based SLT, you can configure a maximum of two sessions, one for each signaling link. In a redundant MGC configuration, session 0 is configured to one MGC and session 1 is configured to the other.

The MGC must be configured to send messages to the local port, and the MGC must be configured to listen on the remote port.

You must reload the router whenever you remove a session or change the parameters of a session.

By default, each RUDP session must belong to SS7 session set 0. This allows backward compatibility with existing SS7 configurations.

If the session-set keyword is omitted, the session is added to the default SS7 session set 0. This allows backward compatibility with older configurations. Entering the no form of the command is still sufficient to remove the session ID for that RUDP session.

If you want to change the SS7 session set to which a session belongs, you have to remove the entire session first. This is intended to preserve connection and recovery logic.

Examples

The following example sets up two sessions on a Cisco 2611 and creates session set 2:

ss7 session-0 address 172.16.1.0 7000 172.16.0.0 7000 session-set 2
ss7 session-1 address 172.17.1.0 7002 172.16.0.0 7001 session-set 2

Note The example above shows how the local IP addresses in session-0 and session-1 must be the same.

Usage Guidelines

The cumulative acknowledgment timer determines when the receiver sends an acknowledgment. If the timer is not already running, it is initialized when a valid data, null, or reset segment is received. When the cumulative acknowledgment timer expires, the last in-sequence segment is acknowledged. The RUDP typically tries to "piggyback" acknowledgments on data segments being sent. However, if no data segment is sent in this period of time, it sends a standalone acknowledgment.

Examples

The following example sets up two sessions and sets the cumulative acknowledgment timer to 320 ms for each one:

ss7 session-0 address 255.255.255.251 7000 255.255.255.254 7000
ss7 session-0 cumack_t 320

12.1(1)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)T.


Usage Guidelines

The null segment timer determines when a null segment (keepalive) is sent by the client Cisco 2600 series router. On the client, the timer starts when the connection is established and is reset each time a data segment is sent. If the null segment timer expires, the client sends a keepalive to the server to verify that the connection is still functional. On the server, the timer restarts each time a data or null segment is received from the client.

The value of the server's null segment timer is twice the value configured for the client. If no segments are received by the server in this period of time, the connection is no longer valid.

To disable keepalive, set this parameter to 0.

Examples

The following example sets up two sessions and sets a keepalive of 1,800 ms for each one:

ss7 session-0 address 255.255.255.251 7000 255.255.255.254 7000

Usage Guidelines

The cumulative acknowledgment counter records the number of unacknowledged, in-sequence data, null, or reset segments received without a data, null, or reset segment being sent to the transmitter. If this counter reaches the configured maximum, the receiver sends a standalone acknowledgment (a standalone acknowledgment is a segment that contains only acknowledgment information). The standalone acknowledgment contains the sequence number of the last data, null, or reset segment received.

If you set this parameter to 0, an acknowledgment is sent immediately after a data, null, or reset segment is received.

Examples

The following example sets up two sessions and in each session sets a maximum of two segments for receipt before acknowledgment:

ss7 session-0 address 255.255.255.251 7000 255.255.255.254 7001

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)T.


Usage Guidelines

The out-of-sequence acknowledgment counter records the number of data segments that have arrived out of sequence. If this counter reaches the configured maximum, the receiver sends an extended acknowledgment segment that contains the sequence numbers of the out-of-sequence data, null, and reset segments received. When the transmitter receives the extended acknowledgment segment, it retransmits the missing data segments.

If you set this parameter to 0, an acknowledgment is sent immediately after an out-of-sequence segment is received.

Examples

The following example sets up two sessions and sets a maximum number of four out-of-sequence segments for each session:

ss7 session-0 address 255.255.255.251 7000 255.255.255.254 7001

12.1(1)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)T.


Usage Guidelines

The retransmission timer is used to determine whether a packet must be retransmitted and is initialized each time a data, null, or reset segment is sent. If an acknowledgment for the segment is not received by the time the retransmission timer expires, all segments that have been transmitted—but not acknowledged—are retransmitted.

This value should be greater than the value configured for the cumulative acknowledgment timer by using the ss7 session cumack_t command.

Examples

The following example sets up two sessions and specifies 550 ms as the time to wait for an acknowledgment for each session:

ss7 session-0 address 255.255.255.251 7000 255.255.255.254 7001

12.2(15)T

This command was introduced. This command replaces the ss7 set failover-timer command.


Usage Guidelines

The failover-timer keyword and the ft-value argument specify the number of seconds that the Session Manager waits for the active session to recover or for the standby MGC to indicate that the SLT should switch traffic to the standby session and to make that session the active session. If the failover timer expires without recovery of the original session or if the system fails to get an active message from the standby MGC, the signaling links are taken out of service.

The no form of this command restores the failover timer to its default value of 5. Omitting the optional session-set keyword implicitly selects SS7 session set 0, which is the default.

Examples

The following example sets the failover timer to four seconds without using the session-set option:

Usage Guidelines

This optional command is configured on FXS voice ports that are used to originate on-net calls. The information entered is displayed by the telephone attached to the FXS port at the far end of the on-net call. It can also be configured on the FXO port of a router on which caller ID information is expected to be received from the Central Office (CO), to suit situations in which a call is placed from the CO, then goes through the FXO interface, and continues to a far-end FXS port through an on-net call. In this case, if no caller ID information is received from the CO telephone line, the far-end call recipient receives the information configured on the FXO port.


Note This feature applies only to caller ID name display provided by an FXS port connection to a telephone device. The station name is not passed through telephone trunk connections supporting Automatic Number Identification (ANI) calls. ANI supplies calling number identification only and does not support calling number names.


Do not use this command when the caller ID standard is dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF). DTMF caller ID can carry only the calling number.

If the station name, station number, or a caller-id alerting command is configured on the voice port, caller ID is automatically enabled, and the caller-id enable command is not necessary.

Examples

The following example configures a Cisco 2600 series or Cisco 3600 series router voice port from which caller ID information is sent:

11.3(1)MA

This command was introduced on the Cisco MC3810.


Usage Guidelines

This command indicates whether supervisory disconnect signaling is available on the FXO port. Supervisory disconnect signaling is a power denial from the switch lasting at least 350 ms. When this condition is detected, the system interprets this as a disconnect indication from the switch and clears the call.

You should configure no supervisory disconnect on the voice port if there is no supervisory disconnect available from the switch.


Note If there is no disconnect supervision on the voice port, the interface could be left active if the caller abandons the call before the far end answers. After the router collects the dialed digits but before the called party answers, the router starts a tone detector. Within this time window, the tone detector listens for signals (such as a fast busy signal) that occur if the originating caller hangs up. If this occurs, the router interprets those tones as a disconnect indication and closes the window.


Examples

The following example configures supervisory disconnect on a Cisco 3600 series voice port:

voice-port 2/1/0
 supervisory disconnect

The following example configures supervisory disconnect on a Cisco MC3810 voice port:

voice-port 1/1
 supervisory disconnect

supervisory disconnect anytone

To configure a Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) voice port to go on-hook if the router detects any tone from a PBX or the PSTN before an outgoing call is answered, use the supervisory disconnect anytone command in voice-port configuration mode. To disable the supervisory disconnect function, use the no form of this command.

supervisory disconnect anytone

12.2(2)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)T and implemented on the Cisco 1750.


Usage Guidelines

Use this command to provide disconnect if the PBX or PSTN does not provide a supervisory tone. Examples of tones that trigger a disconnect include busy tone, fast busy tone, and dial tone.

This command is enabled only during call setup (before the call is answered).

You must enable echo cancellation; otherwise, ringback tone from the router can trigger a disconnect.

This command replaces the no supervisory disconnect signal command. If you enter this command, the supervisory disconnect anytone feature is enabled, and the message supervisory disconnect anytone is displayed when show commands are entered.

If you enter either the supervisory disconnect anytone command or the no supervisory disconnect signal command, answer supervision is automatically disabled.

Examples

The following example configures voice ports 1/4 and 1/5 to go on-hook if any tone from the PBX or PSTN is detected before the call is answered:

voice-port 1/4
 supervisory disconnect anytone
 exit
voice-port 1/5
 supervisory disconnect anytone
 exit

The following example disables the disconnect function on voice port 1/5:

voice-port 1/5
 no supervisory disconnect anytone
 exit
