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.

unbundle vfc

To unbundle DSPWare from the VCWare and configure the default file and capability lists with default values, use the unbundle vfc command in privileged EXEC mode.

unbundle [high-complexity | medium-complexity] vfc slot-number

Syntax Description

high-complexity	(Optional) Unbundles the high-complexity firmware set.
medium-complexity	(Optional) Unbundles the medium-complexity firmware set.
slot-number	Voice feature card (VFC) slot number.

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Privileged EXEC

Command History

Release	Modification
11.3(2)NA	This command was introduced on Cisco AS5300.
12.0(2)XH	The high-complexity and medium-complexity keywords were added.
12.0(3)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(3)T.

Usage Guidelines

VFCs come with a single bundled image, VCWare, stored in VFC Flash memory. Use the unbundle vfc command to unbundle this bundled image into separate files, which are then written to Flash memory. When VCWare is unbundled, it automatically adds DSPWare to Flash memory, creates both the capability and default file lists, and populates these lists with the default files for that version of VCWare. The default file list includes the files to be used to boot up the system. The capability list defines the available voice codecs for H.323 capability negotiation. These files are used during initial card configuration and for subsequent firmware upgrades.

Before unbundling a VFC software image that you have just copied over to VFC Flash, use the clear vfc command. Unbundling a DSP firmware set rewrites the default-file and capabilities lists. After unbundling, you must reload the router for any changes to take effect.

Examples

The following example unbundles the high-complexity firmware set into slot 2:

Router# unbundle high-complexity vfc 2

Related Commands

Command	Description
copy flash vfc	Copies a new version of VCWare from the Cisco AS5300 motherboard to VFC Flash memory.
copy tftp vfc	Copies a new version of VCWare from a TFTP server to VFC Flash memory.

url

To configure the Internet service provider (ISP) address, use the url command in settlement configuration mode. You can configure the address type multiple times. To disable the address, use the no form of this command.

url url-address

no url url-address

Syntax Description

url-address

URL address. A valid URL address is as follows: http://fully qualified domain name[:port]/[URL]

Command Default

No default behavior or values

Command Modes

Settlement configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
12.0(4)XH1	This command was introduced on Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3600 series, and Cisco AS5300.
12.1(1)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)T.
12.2(11)T	The settlement configuration for this command was modified. The settlement provider must be shutdown before the url command is entered.

Usage Guidelines

You can configure the address type multiple times. If you configure multiple URLs for the settlement server, the gateway attempts to send the request to each URL in the order in which you configured these addresses.

If the first URL is unsuccessful, the gateway tries the next URL. If the first URL becomes available, the gateway does not switch back until it loops through the list of URLs, for example:

url http://servicepoint1.com

url http://servicepoint2.com

url http://servicepoint3.com

If http://servicepoint1.com fails, the gateway sends the request to http://servicepoint2.com. If http://servicepoint1.com comes back online, the gateway continues to send requests to http://servicepoint2.com. Later on, if http://servicepoint2 is down, the gateway sends requests to http://servicepoint3.com.

When http://servicepoint3.com is down the gateway routes its requests back to http://servicepoint1.com.

Examples

The following example shows four URLs configured for the settlement server:

settlement 0

 url http://1.2.3.4/

 url http://1.2.3.4:80/

 url https://1.2.3.4:4444/

 url https://yourcompany.com:443/

Command Modes

SIP configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
12.2(2)XB	This command was introduced.
12.2(2)XB1	This command was implemented on the Cisco AS5850.
12.2(8)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T. Support for the Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 was not included in this release.
12.2(11)T	This command was implemented on Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, and Cisco AS5400 patforms.
12.4(6)T	The sips keyword was added to the command.

Usage Guidelines

This command affects only user-agent clients (UACs), because it causes the use of a SIP, SIPS, or TEL URL in the request line of outgoing SIP INVITE requests. SIP URLs indicate the originator, recipient, and destination of the SIP request; TEL URLs indicate voice call connections.

The voice-class sip url command, in dial peer configuration mode, takes precedence over the url command in SIP global configuration mode. However, if the voice-class sip url command is configured with the system keyword, the gateway uses what was globally configured under the url command.

Enter SIP configuration mode after entering voice-service VoIP configuration mode, as shown in the Examples section.

Examples

The following example generates URLs in SIP format:

voice service voip

sip

 url sip

The following example generates URLs in SIPS format:

voice service voip

sip

 url sips

The following example generates URLs in TEL format:

voice service voip

sip

 url tel

use-proxy

To enable proxy communications for calls between local and remote zones or the H.225 Annex G border element, use the use-proxy command in gatekeeper configuration mode. To remove either a proxy configuration entry for a remote zone or the H.225 Annex G border element, to disable proxy communications between local and remote zones or H.225 Annex G border element, use the no form of this command.

use-proxy local-zone-name {default | h323-annexg | remote-zone remote-zone-name} {inbound-to | outbound-from} {gateway | terminal}

no use-proxy local-zone-name {default | h323-annexg | remote-zone remote-zone-name} [{inbound-to | outbound-from} {gateway | terminal}]

Syntax Description

local-zone-name	Name or zone name of the gatekeeper, which is usually the fully domain-qualified host name of the gatekeeper.
default	Default proxy policy for all calls that are not defined by a use-proxy command with the remote-zone keyword or h323-annexg keyword.
h323-annexg	Proxy policy for calls to or from the H.225 Annex G border element co-located with the gatekeeper.
remote-zone remote-zone-name	Proxy policy for calls to or from a specific remote gatekeeper or zone.
inbound-to	Proxy policy as it applies to calls that are inbound to the local zone from a remote zone. Each use-proxy command defines the policy for only one direction.
outbound-from	Proxy policy as it applies to calls that are outbound from the local zone to a remote zone. Each use-proxy command defines the policy for only one direction.
gateway	Type of local device to which the policy applies. The gateway option applies the policy only to local gateways.
terminal	Type of local device to which the policy applies. The terminal option applies the policy only to local terminals.

Command Default

The local zone uses proxy for both inbound and outbound calls to and from the local H.323 terminals only. Proxy is not used for both inbound and outbound calls to and from local gateways. For releases prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T, both inbound and outbound calls using the H.225 Annex G border element do not use the proxy.

Command Modes

Gatekeeper configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
12.0(5)T	This command was introduced on the Cisco AS5300.
12.1(5)XM2	The command was implemented on the Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400.
12.2(4)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)T. Support for the Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, and Cisco AS5400 is not included in this release.
12.2(2)XB1	This command was implemented on the Cisco AS5850.
12.2(11)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)T.
12.3(7)T	The h323-annexg keyword was added.

Usage Guidelines

This command replaces the zone access command used in previous versions of the gatekeeper. When a previous version of a gatekeeper is upgraded, any zone access commands are translated to use-proxy commands. You can use the show gatekeeper zone status command to see the gatekeeper proxy configuration.

If the domain name is cisco.com, the gatekeeper name might be gk1.cisco.com. However, if the gatekeeper is controlling multiple zones, the name of the gatekeeper for each zone should be a unique string.

Examples

In the following example, the local zone sj.xyz.com is configured to use a proxy for inbound calls from remote zones tokyo.xyz.com and milan.xyz.com to gateways in its local zone. The sj.xyz.com zone is also configured to use a proxy for outbound calls from gateways in its local zone to remote zones tokyo.xyz.com and milan.xyz.com.

use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone tokyo.xyz.com inbound-to gateway

use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone tokyo.xyz.com outbound-from gateway

use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone milan.xyz.com inbound-to gateway

use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone milan.xyz.com outbound-from gateway

Because the default mode disables proxy communications for all gateway calls, only the gateway calls listed above can use the proxy.

In the following example, the local zone sj.xyz.com uses a proxy for only those calls that are outbound from H.323 terminals in its local zone to the specified remote zone germany.xyz.com:

no use-proxy sj.xyz.com default outbound-from terminal

use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone germany.xyz.com outbound-from terminal

---

Note Any calls inbound to H.323 terminals in the local zone sj.xyz.com from the remote zone germany.xyz.com use the proxy because the default applies.

---

The following example removes one or more proxy statements for the remote zone germany.xyz.com from the proxy configuration list:

no use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone germany.xyz.com

This command removes all special proxy configurations for the remote zone germany.xyz.com. After you enter a command like this, all calls between the local zone (sj.xyz.com) and germany.xyz.com are processed according to the defaults defined by any use-proxy commands that use the default option.

To prohibit proxy use for inbound calls to H.323 terminals in a local zone from a specified remote zone, enter a command similar to the following:

no use-proxy sj.xyz.com remote-zone germany.xyz.com inbound-to terminal

This command overrides the default and disables proxy use for inbound calls from remote zone germany.xyz.com to all H.323 terminals in the local zone sj.xyz.com.

In the following example, the local zone sj.xyz.com is configured to use a proxy for inbound calls and outbound calls that use the H.225 Annex G border element co-located with the gatekeeper:

use-proxy sj.xyz.com h323-annexg inbound-to gateway 

use-proxy sj.xyz.com h323-annexg outbound-from gateway 

In the following example, the local zone sj.xyz.com is configured not to use a proxy for inbound calls and outbound calls that use the H.225 Annex G border element co-located with the gatekeeper:

no use-proxy sj.xyz.com h323-annexg inbound-to terminal

no use-proxy sj.xyz.com h323-annexg outbound-from terminal

The following example removes one or more proxy statements for the H.225 Annex G border element from the proxy configuration list:

no use-proxy sj.xyz.com h323-annexg

user-id

To match a call based on the user-id field in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) uniform resource identifier (URI), use the user-id command in voice URI class configuration mode. To remove the match pattern, use the no form of this command.

user-id username-pattern

no user-id

Syntax Description

username-pattern

Cisco IOS regular expression pattern to match against the user-id field in a SIP URI. Can be up to 32 characters.

Command Default
