| Hi folks,
I'm pretty new to setting up gateways with callmanager, up until now
all i've had the chance to mess with has been 6608 cards.. have a
question about some older hardware if anyone has any ideas:
I have 2 clusters configured in the lab, one is "WVU", the other is
"Potomac State". WVU has a 2611XM router with a NM-HDV/1MFT-T1 VWIC,
configured as a MGCP gateway and setup for PRI. everything looks good
on it from what I can tell. register on CCM, PRI Backhaul connection
is up, it sees the mgcp enpoints, etc etc.
"Potomac State" has a VG200 with a NM-HDV/1MFT-T1 VWIC also. i'm
running IOS 12.2(16a) on it right now. have the gateway T1 interfaces
connected with a T1 crossover cable, have a green CD light and the sho
isdn command indicates that the d-channels are up.
"Potomac State" CCM shows the VG200 as registered, and sho ccm-manager
confirms that. but, IOS will not take the command "isdn bind-l3
ccm-manager" on the serial interface.. which is what the documentation
tells me to do to get the PRI backhaul to callmanager working. also I
see errors in trace files saying something about tcp connection not
open, which is making me think the PRI backhaul isnt working. I see
minimal messages when i turn on debug mgcp packets, one or two intial
messages and then the vgw just keeps updating CCM with "nothing is
happening" messages, but nothing else, no messages from CCM back to
the gateway other than "200 OK" type messages. Trying to call out from
Potomac State to WVU using a route pattern pointed at the gateway just
gets me reorder, nothing even seems to show up on the VG200 debug.
Any ideas? neither "isdn bind-l3 ccm-manager" nor "ccm-manager config"
seem to work on this VG200 no matter which IOS i put on it, I also
tried the latest IOS but I couldnt even get the mgcp endpoints to come
up with that version. probably something very obvious that im missing
here.
Happy Holidays,

| Hi Ed,
According to the Feature Navigator 12.2(16a) on the VG200 does not
support MGCP PRI backhaul to CCM. You will need to use a 12.2T version
or a 12.3 version on the VG200.
You can search by feature from here:
http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/CFN/jsp/index.jsp
Look for the feature "MGCP PRI backhaul and T1-CAS support for Call
Manager (IP-PBX)". Then select the VG200. This will give you all your
options and you can determine which IOS will best fit your needs.
Also for a back to back config don't forget to but the "isdn
protocol-emulate network" command on the serial interface of one of the
routers to bring up layer 2.
HTH,
Kevin

| Kevin,
Turns out none of the VG200's I have came with enough flash memory to
upgrade to any versions supporting MGCP PRI backhaul.. they are all
8MB flash and the lowest version of 12.2T that hasnt been removed from
CCO (that I could find) is just a bit bigger than 8MB. All the 8MB
versions have been removed, too old I guess. I'll try to get H323
working for this test instead.
I hadn't used the feature navigator before, thanks for showing me.

| Hey Ed, I remember you from CIPTUG! The newer VG224's work really well
with MGCP. The only issue I currently have is that my IOS version has a
AAA bug in it. I need to upgrade my memory to fix this. Really hasn't
impacted me though because the boxes run and I never touch them....

| Hi Ed,
As long as you have enough main memory you can use the boot system
command and boot the image from a TFTP server. This would be fine for
a lab environment but might not be ideal for production. If a flash
upgrade for the VG200 is still available you might be able to get away
with the TFTP workaround for a short period.

| I think you are better off with the VG224's. They are IOS based and are
basically like configuring a router. Unless the 248's have changed (I
haven't looked) they are not IOS based and I remember they were a little
more troublesome. Maybe someone else out there can confirm this and you
will feel better about going this route.

Hey Carlos good to hear from you. We're getting some VG224's in to use
for a few dormitories at a regional campus, hopefully they will work
out OK. I would have rather gone with some 248's and had fewer boxes
to manage, but the 'customer' wants dual connections to all boxes
where possible.

You are correct the VG248 is not IOS based. It is completely menu driven
unfortionatly. However it does talk Skinny back to call manager so the
ports all come up and look like phones. Very little configuration on the
box itself.

basically like configuring a router. Unless the 248's have changed (I
haven't looked) they are not IOS based and I remember they were a little
more troublesome. Maybe someone else out there can confirm this and you
will feel better about going this route.

Hey Carlos good to hear from you. We're getting some VG224's in to use
for a few dormitories at a regional campus, hopefully they will work
out OK. I would have rather gone with some 248's and had fewer boxes
to manage, but the 'customer' wants dual connections to all boxes
where possible.

| I agree, the VG248's do a fine job integrating the callmanager with
older voicemail systems that use SMDI integration.
However, you could also use the cisco Message Interface service on the
CallManager for SMDI integration. You would then run the SMDI link
from the CallManager's serial port to your voicemail system. You
would still need a gateway of some sort but aleast you have options
other than VG248.
I have no problem with the VG248, it does a fine job - but it has
always seemed like the red headed stepchild. The newest code 1.3.1
doesn't even exist on the bug toolkit. I'm mentioned that to TAC
before - i think it is to encourage people to migrate to Unity.

| Correct we could use the port off of one of the call manager servers but
we have a geography problem. Our Call Manager server are located in
Milwaukee and Cleaveland. Where as our voicemail system is located in
Milwaukee and also in Brazil.
So unfortionatly the only thing we can do is use the red headed stepchil
and hope cisco does not end support for it or comes out with something to
replace it wtih.
Thanks,

| And the vg224 lacks the advanced call control modes of the vg248
(conference, park, transfer...)
But look for those coming out next year on the vg224. Looks like the
EFT is already in progress.

Kevin,
Turns out none of the VG200's I have came with enough flash memory to
upgrade to any versions supporting MGCP PRI backhaul.. they are all
8MB flash and the lowest version of 12.2T that hasnt been removed from
CCO (that I could find) is just a bit bigger than 8MB. All the 8MB
versions have been removed, too old I guess. I'll try to get H323
working for this test instead.
I hadn't used the feature navigator before, thanks for showing me.
