Modification

12.2(2)XA

This command was introduced.

12.2(4)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)T.

12.2(11)T

This command implemented on the Cisco AS5300 and Cisco AS5850.


Usage Guidelines

This command is used when configuring values for an MGCP profile.

The default (MGCP profile) command instructs the MGCP profile to use the default value of the specified command whenever the profile is called. This has the same effect as using the no form of the specified command, but the default command clearly specifies which commands are using their default values.

To use the default values for more than one command, enter each command on a separate line.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure the default values for three MGCP profile commands:

Router(config)# mgcp profile newyork
Router(config-mgcp-profile)# default max1 retries
Router(config-mgcp-profile)# default timeout tdinit
Router(config-mgcp-profile)# default timeout tone mwi

Usage Guidelines

Before you use this command, configure the voice class by using the voice class uri command.

This command applies new rules for dial-peer matching. Table 16 shows the rules and the order in which they are applied when the destination uri command is used. The gateway compares the dial-peer command to the call parameter in its search to match an outbound call to a dial peer. All dial peers are searched based on the first match criteria. Only if no match is found does the gateway move on to the next criteria.

Table 16 Dial-Peer Matching Rules for Outbound URI

Match Order
Cisco IOS Command
Outgoing Call Parameter

1

destination uri and carrier-id target

Application-provided URI and target carrier ID associated with the call

2

destination-pattern and carrier-id target

Called number and target carrier ID associated with the call

3

destination uri

Application-provided URI

4

destination-pattern

Called number

5

carrier-id target

Target carrier ID associated with the call



Note Calls whose destination is an E.164 number, rather than a URI, use the previously existing dial-peer matching rules. For information, see the Dial Peer Configuration on Voice Gateway Routers document, Cisco IOS Voice Library.


Examples

The following example matches the destination URI in the outgoing call by using voice class ab100:

dial-peer voice 100 voip
 destination uri ab100

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.

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T and implemented on the Cisco 2600XM, the Cisco ICS7750, and the Cisco VG200.


Usage Guidelines

Use the destination-pattern command to define the E.164 telephone number for a dial peer.

The pattern you configure is used to match dialed digits to a dial peer. The dial peer is then used to complete the call. When a router receives voice data, it compares the called number (the full E.164 telephone number) in the packet header with the number configured as the destination pattern for the voice-telephony peer. The router then strips out the left-justified numbers that correspond to the destination pattern. If you have configured a prefix, the prefix is appended to the front of the remaining numbers, creating a dial string, which the router then dials. If all numbers in the destination pattern are stripped out, the user receives a dial tone.

There are certain areas in the world (for example, certain European countries) where valid telephone numbers can vary in length. Use the optional control character T to indicate that a particular destination-pattern 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.

dial-peer outbound status-check pots

To check the status of outbound POTS dial peers during call setup and to disallow, for that call, any whose status is down, use the dial-peer outbound status-check pots command in privileged EXEC mode. To disable status checking, use the no form of this command.

dial-peer outbound status-check pots

Modification

12.3

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Use this command to disallow, during call setup, outbound POTS dial peers (except those for e-phones) whose endpoints (voice ports or trunk groups) are down.

When the dial-peer outbound status-check pots command is configured, if the voice-port configured under an outbound POTS dial-peer is down, that dial-peer is excluded while matching the corresponding destination-pattern. Therefore, if there are no other matching outbound POTS dial-peers for the specified destination-pattern, the gateway will disconnect the call with a cause code of 1 (Unallocated/unassigned number), which is mapped to the "404 Not Found" SIP response by default. When the no form of this command is configured, the outbound POTS dial-peer is matched even if the voice-port configured under is down and the gateway disconnects the call with a cause code of 34 (No circuit/channel available), which is mapped to the "503 Service Unavailable" SIP response by default.


Note "503 Service Unavailable" was the default behavior before the dial-peer outbound status-check pots command was introduced. Users who need the original behavior should configure the no form of this command.


Table 19 shows conditions under which an outbound POTS dial peer may be up or down.

Table 19 Conditions Under Which an Outbound POTS Dial Peer Is Up or Down

If a Dial Peer's,,,
And If...
Then the Dial Peer Is...

Operational state is up

Its voice port is up

Up

Its trunk groups and any associated trunks are up

To show or verify the status (up or down) of all or selected dial peers, use the show dial-peer voice command.

Examples

The following examples of output for the related show dial-peer voice command show the status of all or selected dial peers. You can use the dial-peer outbound status-check pots command to disallow the outbound POTS dial peers that are down.

Usage Guidelines

Use the dial-peer voice global configuration command to switch to dial-peer configuration mode from global configuration mode and to define a particular dial peer. Use the exit command to exit dial peer configuration mode and return to global configuration mode.

After you have created a dial peer, that dial peer remains defined and active until you delete it. To delete a dial peer, use the no form of this command. To disable a dial peer, use the no shutdown command in dial peer configuration mode.

In store-and-forward fax on the Cisco AS5300, the POTS dial peer defines the inbound faxing line characteristics from the sending fax device to the receiving Cisco AS5300 and the outbound line characteristics from the sending Cisco AS5300 to the receiving fax device. The Multimedia Mail over Internet Protocol (MMoIP) dial peer defines the inbound faxing line characteristics from the Cisco AS5300 to the receiving Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail server. This command applies to both on-ramp and off-ramp store-and-forward fax functions.


Note On the Cisco AS5300, MMoIP is available only if you have modem ISDN channel aggregation (MICA) technologies modems.


Examples

Usage Guidelines

Use the dial-type command to specify an out-dialing type for a Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) or E&M voice port interface. This command specifies the tone type for digit detection and out-pulsing. This command is not applicable to Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) voice ports because the ports do not generate out-dialing. This command also specifies the detection direction. Multifrequency tone dialing is not supported for FXS and FXO.

Voice ports can always detect DTMF and pulse signals. This command does not affect voice port dialing detection.

The dial-type command affects out-dialing as configured for the dial peer.

If you are using the dial-type command with E&M Wink Start signaling, use the dtmf or mf option.

SGCP 1.1+ does not support pulse dialing.

Examples

The following example shows a voice port configured to support a rotary (pulse tone) dialer:

Router(config)# voice-port 1/1
Router(config-voice-port)# dial-type pulse

The following example shows a voice port configured to support a DTMF (touch-tone) dialer:

Modification

12.4(6)T

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

This command is used with the STC application, which enables features on analog FXS endpoints that use Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP) for call control.

This command determines the number of digits that can be configured for speed-dial codes using the speed dial and voicemail commands. Use this command only if you want to change the number of digits from its default, which is 1. If you modify the value of this command, the speed dial and voicemail commands are reset to their defaults. If you set the value to 2 and then try to configure a single-digit speed-dial code, the system converts the speed-dial code into two digits.

Note that the phone numbers that are stored with various speed-dial codes are configured on the call-control device, such as Cisco CallManager or a Cisco CallManager Express router.

Examples

The following example sets the number of digits for speed-dial codes to two. It also sets a speed-dial prefix of one pound sign (#) and a speed-dial code range from 5 to 25. After these values are configured, a phone user presses #10 on the keypad to dial the number that was stored with code 10.

Usage Guidelines

The digital-filter command has an effect on an ear and mouth (E&M) voice port only if the signal type for that port is Land Mobile Radio (LMR). The digital filter improves voice quality by preventing transmission of the guard tone with the voice packet from the LMR system to the VoIP network. The guard tone is configured with the inject guard-tone command. The digital filter can be configured to filter out either 2175 Hz or 1950 Hz. Only one of these frequencies can be filtered out at a time. Filtering is performed by the DSP.

Examples

The following example specifies that 1950 Hz guard tone be filtered out of the voice packet before it is sent from the DSP to the network:

voice class tone-signal mytones
