Requirements

The Cisco CallManager integration supports configurations of the following components:

Phone System

•A Cisco IP telephony applications server consisting of Cisco CallManager 4.0(x), running on a Cisco Media Convergence Server (MCS) or customer-provided server meeting approved Cisco configuration standards.

•IP phones for the Cisco CallManager extensions.

•A LAN connection in each location where you will plug an IP phone into the network.

•For multiple Cisco CallManager clusters, the capability for users to dial an extension on another Cisco CallManager cluster without having to dial a trunk access code or prefix.

Cisco Unity Connection Server

•Cisco Unity Connection installed and ready for the integration, as described in the Cisco Unity Connection Installation Guide at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6509/prod_installation_guides_list.html.

•The applicable Cisco Unity-CM TSP, installed. For details on compatible versions of the TSP, refer to the Compatibility Matrix: Cisco Unity, the Cisco Unity-CM TSP, Cisco Unified CM, and Cisco Unified CM Express at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/unity/compatibility/matrix/cutspmtx.html.

•A license that enables the appropriate number of voice messaging ports.

Integration Description

The Cisco CallManager integration uses the LAN to connect Cisco Unity Connection and the phone system. The gateway provides connections to the PSTN. Figure 1 shows the connections.

Figure 1 Connections Between the Phone System and Cisco Unity Connection

Call Information

The phone system sends the following information with forwarded calls:

•The extension of the called party

•The extension of the calling party (for internal calls) or the phone number of the calling party (if it is an external call and the system uses caller ID)

•The reason for the forward (the extension is busy, does not answer, or is set to forward all calls)

Cisco Unity Connection uses this information to answer the call appropriately. For example, a call forwarded to Cisco Unity Connection is answered with the personal greeting of the user. If the phone system routes the call to Cisco Unity Connection without this information, Cisco Unity Connection answers with the opening greeting.

Integration Features

The Cisco CallManager integration with Cisco Unity Connection provides the following features.

Call forward to personal greeting

When an incoming call is routed to an unanswered extension, the call is forwarded to the voice mail of the user. The caller then hears the personal greeting of the user and can leave a message.

Call forward to busy greeting

When an incoming call is routed to a busy extension, the call is forwarded to the voice mail of the user. The caller then hears the busy greeting (if the user enabled it) and can leave a message.

Caller ID

Cisco Unity Connection receives caller ID information from the phone system (if available). This information appears in the subject line of the message in the desktop messaging application.

Easy message access

A user can retrieve messages without entering an ID. Cisco Unity Connection identifies a user based on the extension from which the call originated. A password may be required.

Identified user messaging

Cisco Unity Connection automatically identifies a user who leaves a message during a forwarded internal call, based on the extension from which the call originated.

Message waiting indication

When a message is waiting for a user, Cisco Unity Connection notifies Cisco CallManager to activate the message waiting indicator (MWI) on the user extension.

When a Cisco Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST) router is part of the network and the Cisco SRST router takes over call processing functions from Cisco CallManager (for example, because the WAN link is down), phones at a branch office can continue to function. In this situation, however, the integration features have the following limitations:

•Call forward to busy greeting—When the Cisco SRST router uses FXO/FXS connections to the PSTN and a call is forwarded from a branch office to Cisco Unity Connection, the busy greeting cannot play.

•Call forward to internal greeting—When the Cisco SRST router uses FXO/FXS connections to the PSTN and a call is forwarded from a branch office to Cisco Unity Connection, the internal greeting cannot play. Because the PSTN provides the calling number of the FXO line, the caller is not identified as a user.

•Call transfers—Because an access code is needed to reach the PSTN, call transfers from Cisco Unity Connection to a branch office will fail.

•Identified user messaging—When the Cisco SRST router uses FXO/FXS connections to the PSTN and a user at a branch office leaves a message or forwards a call, the user is not identified. The caller appears as an unidentified caller.

•Message waiting indication—MWIs are not updated on branch office phones. So MWIs will not correctly reflect when new messages arrive or when all messages have been listened to. We recommend resynchronizing MWIs after the WAN link is reestablished.

•Message notification—Because an access code is needed to reach the PSTN, message notifications from Cisco Unity Connection to a branch office will fail.

•Routing rules—When the Cisco SRST router uses FXO/FXS connections to the PSTN and a call arrives from a branch office to Cisco Unity Connection (either a direct or forwarded call), routing rules will fail.

When the Cisco SRST router uses PRI/BRI connections, the caller ID for calls from a branch office to Cisco Unity Connection may be the full number (exchange plus extension) provided by the PSTN and therefore may not match the extension of the Cisco Unity Connection user. If this is the case, you can let Cisco Unity Connection recognize the caller ID by using alternate extensions (for instructions, see the "Appendix: Using Alternate Extensions and MWIs" section).

Redirected Dialed Number Information Service (RDNIS) needs to be supported when using SRST.

For information on setting up Cisco SRST routers, refer to the "Integrating Voice Mail with Cisco SRST" section of the "Cisco SRST System Administrator Guide," available at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122limit/122z/122zj15/index.htm.

Impact of Non-Delivery of RDNIS on Voice Mail Calls Routed via AAR

RDNIS needs to be supported when using Automated Alternate Routing (AAR).

AAR can route calls over the PSTN when the WAN is oversubscribed. However, when calls are rerouted over the PSTN, RDNIS can be affected. Incorrect RDNIS information can impact voice mail calls that are rerouted over the PSTN by AAR when Cisco Unity Connection is remote from its messaging clients. If the RDNIS information is not correct, the call will not reach the voice mail box of the dialed user but will instead receive the auto-attendant prompt, and the caller might be asked to reenter the extension number of the party they wish to reach. This behavior is primarily an issue when the telephone carrier is unable to ensure RDNIS across the network. There are numerous reasons why the carrier might not be able to ensure that RDNIS is properly sent. Check with your carrier to determine whether it provides guaranteed RDNIS delivery end-to-end for your circuits. The alternative to using AAR for oversubscribed WANs is simply to let callers hear reorder tone in an oversubscribed condition.

Integrations with Multiple Phone Systems

Cisco Unity Connection can be integrated with multiple phone systems at one time. For the most recent information on and instructions for integrating Cisco Unity Connection with multiple phone systems, refer to the Multiple Phone System Integration Guide at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6509/products_installation_and_configuration_guides_list.html.

Planning How the Voice Messaging Ports Will Be Used by Cisco Unity Connection

Before programming the phone system, you need to plan how the voice messaging ports will be used by Cisco Unity Connection. The following considerations will affect the programming for the phone system (for example, setting up the hunt group or call forwarding for the voice messaging ports):

•The number of voice messaging ports installed.

•The number of voice messaging ports that will answer calls.

•The number of voice messaging ports that will only dial out, for example, to send message notification, to set message waiting indicators (MWIs), and to make telephone record and playback (TRAP) connections.

Table 1 describes the voice messaging port settings in Cisco Unity Connection that can be set on Telephony Integrations > Port of Cisco Unity Connection Administration.

Table 1 Settings for the Voice Messaging Ports

Field

Considerations

Enabled

Check this check box to enable the port. The port is enabled during normal operation.

Uncheck this check box to disable the port. When the port is disabled, calls to the port get a ringing tone but are not answered. Typically, the port is disabled only by the installer during testing.

Extension

Enter the extension for the port as assigned on the phone system.

Answer Calls

Check this check box to designate the port for answering calls. These calls can be incoming calls from unidentified callers or from users.

Perform Message Notification

Check this check box to designate the port for notifying users of messages. Assign Perform Message Notification to the least busy ports.

Send MWI Requests

Check this check box to designate the port for turning MWIs on and off. Assign Send MWI Requests to the least busy ports.

Allow TRAP Connections

Check this check box so that users can use the phone as a recording and playback device in Cisco Unity Connection web applications and e-mail clients. Assign Allow TRAP Connections to the least busy ports.

Outgoing Hunt Order

Enter the priority order in which Cisco Unity Connection will use the ports when dialing out (for example, if the Perform Message Notification, Send MWI Requests, or Allow TRAP Connections check box is checked). The highest numbers are used first. However, when multiple ports have the same Outgoing Hunt Order number, Cisco Unity Connection will use the port that has been idle the longest.

The Number of Voice Messaging Ports to Install

The number of voice messaging ports to install depends on numerous factors, including:

•The number of calls Cisco Unity Connection will answer when call traffic is at its peak.

•The expected length of each message that callers will record and that users will listen to.

•The number of users.

•The number of ports that will be set to dial out only.

•The number of calls made for message notification.

•The number of MWIs that will be activated when call traffic is at its peak.

•The number of TRAP connections needed when call traffic is at its peak. (TRAP connections are used by Cisco Unity Connection web applications and e-mail clients to play back and record over the phone.)

•The number of calls that will use the automated attendant and call handlers when call traffic is at its peak.

It is best to install only the number of voice messaging ports that are needed so that system resources are not allocated to unused ports.

The Number of Voice Messaging Ports That Will Answer Calls

The calls that the voice messaging ports answer can be incoming calls from unidentified callers or from users. Typically, the voice messaging ports that answer calls are the busiest.

You can set voice messaging ports to both answer calls and to dial out (for example, to send message notifications). However, when the voice messaging ports perform more than one function and are very active (for example, answering many calls), the other functions may be delayed until the voice messaging port is free (for example, message notifications cannot be sent until there are fewer calls to answer). For best performance, dedicate certain voice messaging ports for only answering incoming calls, and dedicate other ports for only dialing out. Separating these port functions eliminates the possibility of a collision, in which an incoming call arrives on a port at the same time that Cisco Unity Connection takes the port off-hook to dial out.

The Number of Voice Messaging Ports That Will Only Dial Out, and Not Answer Calls

Ports that will only dial out and will not answer calls can do one or more of the following:

•Notify users by phone, pager, or e-mail of messages that have arrived.

•Turn MWIs on and off for user extensions.

•Make a TRAP connection so that users can use the phone as a recording and playback device in Cisco Unity Connection web applications and e-mail clients.

Typically, these voice messaging ports are the least busy ports. They also have the highest port numbers for the phone system.

Caution In programming the phone system, do not send calls to voice messaging ports in Cisco Unity Connection that cannot answer calls (voice messaging ports that are not set to Answer Calls). For example, if a voice messaging port is set only to Send MWI Requests, do not send calls to it.

Preparing for Programming the Phone System

When multitenant services are not enabled on Cisco CallManager, leave this field blank.

When multitenant services are enabled, each tenant uses its own voice mail profile and must create a mask to identify the extensions (directory numbers) in each partition that is shared with other tenants. For example, one tenant can use a mask 972813XXXX, while another tenant can use the mask 214333XXXX. Each tenant also uses its own translation patterns for MWIs.

Make This the Default Voice Mail Profile for the System

Check this check box to make this voice mail profile the default.

When this check box is checked, this voice mail profile replaces the current default voice mail profile.

Step 4 Click Insert.

To Set Up the Voice Mail Server Service Parameters

Step 1 In the Cisco CallManager Administration, click Service > Service Parameters.

Step 2 On the Service Parameters Configuration page, in the Server field, click the name of the Cisco CallManager server.

Step 3 In the Service list, click Cisco CallManager. The list of parameters appears.

Step 4 Under Clusterwide Parameters (Feature - General), locate the Multiple Tenant MWI Modes parameter.

Step 5 If you use multiple tenant MWI notification, click True.

When this parameter is set to True, Cisco CallManager uses any configured translation patterns to convert voice mail extensions into directory numbers when turning on or off an MWI.

Step 6 If you changed any settings, click Update. Then shut down and restart the Cisco CallManager service.

Note You can use alternate extensions to create multiple line appearances, enable easy message access from cell phones, and simplify addressing messages to users at different locations in Cisco Unity Connection. When you enable alternate MWIs, Cisco Unity Connection can turn MWIs on at more than one extension. For details, see the "Appendix: Using Alternate Extensions and MWIs" section.

Setting Up the Gateways That Service Cisco Unity Connection

In certain situations, DTMF digits are not recognized when processed through VoIP dial-peer gateways. To avoid this problem, certain gateways must be configured to enable DTMF relay. The DTMF relay feature is available in Cisco IOS software version 12.0(5) and later.

Cisco IOS software-based gateways that use H.245 out-of-band signaling must be configured to enable DTMF relay.

The Catalyst 6000 T1/PRI and FXS gateways enable DTMF relay by default and do not need additional configuration to enable this feature.

To Enable DTMF Relay

Step 1 On a VoIP dial-peer servicing Cisco Unity Connection, use the following command:
dtmf-relay h245-alphanumeric
Step 2 Create a destination pattern that matches the Cisco CallManager voice mail port numbers. For example, if the system has voice mail ports 1001 through 1016, enter the dial-peer destination pattern 10xx.

Step 3 Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 for all remaining VoIP dial-peers servicing Cisco Unity Connection.

Adding a Cisco CallManager Express Server to a Cisco CallManager Phone System Integration

Cisco Unity Connection can integrate a Cisco CallManager phone system integration that has a port group of Cisco CallManager servers and a port group of a Cisco CallManager Express server. This configuration is typically used to ensure call processing functionality at a branch office when the WAN link is down.

There are, however, the following considerations:

•The version of Cisco Unified CallManager Express and the version of the Cisco Unity-CM TSP must be a supported combination in the Compatibility Matrix: Cisco Unity, the Cisco Unity-CM TSP, Cisco Unified CM, and Cisco Unified CM Express at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/unity/compatibility/matrix/cutspmtx.html.

•The Cisco CallManager phone system integration is typically already created before adding the Cisco CallManager Express server.

•The Cisco CallManager Express server is in its own port group, which is separate from the port group for the Cisco CallManager servers.

•The Cisco CallManager Express port group has its own voice messaging ports that connect only to the Cisco CallManager Express server.

To add a Cisco CallManager Express server to a Cisco CallManager phone system integration, do the following procedure.

Appendix: Using Alternate Extensions and MWIs

Alternate Extensions

On the New Phone Number page for a user, you can assign up to nine alternate extensions for the user. (The primary extension is the one that you assign to each user when the user is added to Cisco Unity Connection.)

Reasons to Use Alternate Extensions

There are several reasons that you may want to specify alternate extensions for users. For example, if you have more than one Cisco Unity Connection server that accesses a single, corporate-wide directory, you may want to use alternate extensions to simplify addressing messages to users at the different locations. With alternate extensions, the number that a user enters when addressing a message to someone at another location can be the same number that the user dials when calling. You may also want to use alternate extensions to:

•Handle multiple line appearances on user phones.

•Offer easy message access on direct calls from a cell phone, home phone, or phone at an alternate work site (assuming that the phone number is passed along to Cisco Unity Connection from these other phone systems). In addition, when such phones are used as alternate extensions, and are set to forward to Cisco Unity Connection, callers can listen to the user greeting and leave messages for the user just as they would when dialing the primary extension for the user.

•Enable URL-based extensions in Cisco Unity Connection for an integration with a SIP phone system.

How Alternate Extensions Work

Before you set up alternate extensions, review the following list for information on how alternate extensions work:

•Alternate extensions cannot exceed 30 characters in length. By default, each administrator-defined alternate extension must be at least 3 characters in length, while user-defined alternate extensions must be at least 10 characters.

•Cisco Unity Connection Administration will not accept an extension that is already assigned to another user (either as a primary or alternate extension), or to a public distribution list, call handler, directory handler, or interview handler. Cisco Unity Connection verifies that each alternate extension is unique—up to the dialing domain level, if applicable—before allowing either an administrator or a user to create it.

•All alternate extensions use the same transfer settings as the primary extension.

•In many cases, Cisco Unity Connection can activate a message waiting indicator (MWI) for an alternate extension. However, depending on the phones and phone systems involved, some additional phone system programming may be required to set this up.

Setting Up Alternate Extensions

Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is "down," or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
