Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] ATA187 issues with Franking machines

2011-11-01 Thread abbas Wali
we logged a Ticket with Cisco and got a very discouraging reply as below..

Problem Description

If I understand the issue correctly, Franking machine connected on the ATA
187 are not working.

Let me know if my understanding of the issue is correct.



Franking machine will not work when connected to ATA 187



+ The franking machine uses a modem to print stamps on the letter and

counts the number of times it does it.

+ Franking machine works on modem technology and ATA's only supports FAX

passthrough and NOT modem passthrough, so this won't work behind an ATA.



However, connecting the Franking machine directly to the FXS port on the
gateway should work.



Configuring and Troubleshooting the Cisco ATA 186 with Fax

http://tools.cisco.com/squish/Fd218



The the above document is for ATA 186 however it's good for ATA 187 also in
terms for using for modem calls.

As per the above document: Note: ATA 186 is not supported for analog modem
calls. The modem referred to throughout the documentation implies fax modem.



Action Plan

-

+ Franking machine will work if connected with FXS on

GTWY/VG224/VG202/VG204.

+ Connect the franking machine on device listed above.

 The franking machine uses a modem to print stamps on the letter and

counts the number of times it does it.

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] ATA187 issues with Franking machines

2011-11-01 Thread abbas Wali
HI All,

We currently have a situation where our franking machines are not supported
by the new ATA 187 in CUCM 8.5.1.





*On the ATA 187*



The sw version is 187.9-0-3-0



*On the CUCM *


As with the new ATA’s all the setup is done in the CUCM and all the setup
is kept to the defaults.

My codecs are 64 kbps (G.722, G.711).

Have ticked the Media Termination Point Required and MTP preferred
originating Codec is set to 711alaw.

Fax mode is fax pass-through

Fax rate is 14400bps



*On the Gateways*



We are having MGCP gateways

Where the setup related to Fax’s are



no ccm-manager fax protocol cisco

mgcp fax t38 inhibit

mgcp modem passthrough voip mode nse







I have tested the ATA with an analogue phone and can dial in –out. I have
tested ATA with fax’s and they are okay. Tested with modems and they are
okay too. But when used with these Franking machines –even though the
machine can dial out a landline number but comes up with a message that no
dial-tone /line busy.

Have tested the franking machine with an analogue line and that works okay.
(the number which the franking machine dials gives a fax tone if dialled
from a voip phone)



a friend in a different company has the same issue and is suggesting a
firmware issue with these new ATA187


Thanks for any help.

[OSL | CCIE_Voice] Extension Mobility

2011-10-21 Thread abbas Wali
I came across something in the dependency records for Phones, End users that
sometimes it says Extension Mobility and sometimes Extension Mobility
Dynamic.

Dont know what is the difference between them

I am under the impression that if a single user login to multiple phones at
various times then it becomes EMD otherwise it says the simple EM if the end
user has logged in to only one phone using his profile??

any thoughts!!!

Thanks
