This chapter describes the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Provisioning commands and their associated tables.


Note In this chapter, an asterisk preceding a token name means the token is mandatory. A token without an asterisk is optional.


Backhaul Set

The Backhaul Set (backhaul-set) table defines an entity for IP communication between a Call Agent and a media gateway for ISDN signaling. It is used to group entries in the Reliable User Datagram Protocol Backhaul Session table.

Table Name: BACKHAUL-SET

Table Containment Area: Call Agent

Command Types

Show, add, change, and delete

Examples

show backhaul-set set-id=backset1;
add backhaul-set set-id=isdn1; mgw-id=mgw_isdn; set-name=set1;
change backhaul-set set-id=isdn1; set-name=set3;
delete backhaul-set set-id=isdn1;

Usage Guidelines

Primary Key Token(s): set-id

Foreign Key Token(s): mgw-id

Add Rules: None.

Change: Control trunk groups using this set to admin-oos.

Delete Rules: Foreign key constraints.


Note If using these commands after a system upgrade, use the mgw-id as the set-id. There is one entry for each ISDN media gateway. The hard code set-name = ISDN1.

* DCHAN-PORT

Unique key. D-channel port (T1/DS1 span on the board) number. Required for ISDN Trunk Group.

SMALLINT: 0-255. Use 0-3 for the Cisco AS5300. Port is 0, 1, 2, 3. The leftmost T1 is 0. The rightmost T1 is 3.

ISDN Interface

The ISDN Interface (isdn-intf) table defines the number of T1s per primary rate interface (PRI). This table is provisioned before the Trunk table. The number of entries for a trunk group is dependent on whether it is nonfacility associated signaling (NFAS) and facility associated signaling (FAS). FAS trunk groups have only one entry in this table, and with an INTF value of zero (0). NFAS trunk groups have multiple entries in this table; one for each T1.

Reliable User Datagram Protocol Backhaul Session

The Reliable User Datagram Protocol (RUDP) Backhaul Session (rudp-backhaul-session) table specifies the IP connections between a media gateway and the Call Agent for ISDN call processing.

Table Name: RUDP-BACKHAUL-SESSION

Table Containment Area: Call Agent

Command Types

Show, add, change, and delete

Examples

show rudp-backhaul-session set-id=isdn1;
add rudp-backhaul-session set-id=backset1; group-name=group1; session-name=session1; 
mgw-tsap-addr=10.89.227.200; mgw-backhaul-port=9000; call-agent-tsap-addr=10.89.225.223; 
call-agent-backhaul-port=9000;
change rudp-backhaul-session set-id=backset1; group-name=group1; session-name=session1; 
call-agent-backhaul-port=17777;
delete rudp-backhaul-session set-id=isdn1;

Usage Guidelines

Primary Key Token(s): set-id, group-name, session-name

Foreign Key Token(s): set-id

Add Rules: None.

Change: Control trunk groups using this set to admin-oos.

Delete Rules:

Foreign key: constraints

Allowed only if the media gateway supports ISDN.

(Release 4.5.1) For medium configurations, if configuring 2000 D-channels, changes to the RUDP retransmission timeout value configured in the gateway can adversely affect link recovery times. Lost calls can occur on switchover. The retransmit timer value must be above 1000 in order to maintain all active calls during switchover. For example:

group group1 timer retransmit 2000
group group2 timer retransmit 2000
