I only use 000111111111111111111111 ( 0 and 23 1's) and don't prepend the Cat65K gatewayname s0/0/......etc. Is it valid or we do need to have the s0/0.....etc name before it.

I have always used the b-channel maintenance on the IOS gateways. I will try it next time with out it. 1 less step!

Guys, to clarify a couple of things. B-Channel Maintenance CAN be used for any MGCP gateway. For purposes of the lab, you only NEED to use it for the 6608 blade, and why is that?? The 6608 blade does not give you a configuration option that could allow a fractional PRI. An IOS MGCP gateway will allow you to configure a fractional T-1/PRI with the timeslot option. The exception to that is if you use the ccm-manager config option for MGCP (which screws you up for the lab). If you use the ccm-manager config option, it assumes only a full PRI…it won’t let you config a fractional. Hope that helps clarify.

You use the B-channel maintenance for all MGCP gateways (IOS and 6608 module). For the lab, outbound calls should work without b-channel maintenance if you are using the top-down since the gateway will select the 1st channel and hunt sequentially down for additional channels. How is the PSTN sending the calls inbound? If the PSTN is sending calls inbound starting at the 23rd channel (bottom up) then the call will likely fail because the 23rd channel is showing available but I is not on the MGCP side. So the always correct engineering answer still applies. “IT DEPENDS!” Scott.

I think we use this option to busy out unused channels since we use fractional T1 not full one. But my doubt is to use it on IOS mgcp GW or not?

In cisco Docs, I can it specified to use thi option for "MGCP gateways" So which method should be used? btw, I use both and both works for IOS . Jeremy Power up the Internet with Yahoo! Toolbar.
