For only 60 points? Are you kidding?
What exactly do you want to know?
Are both sides running CME?
Does [Hybrid PBX] = 2811 w/CME?

 

by: r_naren22atyahooPosted on 2007-01-03 at 17:39:22ID: 18240493

Hi Irmoore,

Sorry my Premium subscription has expired. i will increase this to 100 in a week.

The hybrid PBX has spare E1 port, and can route specified calls from e1 port which is connected to 2811.

calls are made from phones----->PBX--->E1 line------->E1 port(2811)-------->WAN------------->2811------->E1port------>E1 line---->PBX-->Phones

cisco configuration examples for 2811 on the cisco sites is good enough for me.

Hybrid PBX is a third party Digital PBX

Those links did not give any information on call manager setup.

What version CME do you have?

I am not sure where CME comes into your system.
By the looks of it you dont use CME but use these Hybrid PBX on both sites?
If you are going to use CME why do you have those PBX's in there?

The way to set it up is
Cisco IP phones (registered with cme)----->switch eg cisco3750------>CMErouter2811------>WAN--->2811--->switch---->phones


on each of the 2811's you want to create dialpeers pointing to each other.
for example if you have ext range 100 - 199 in site A and 200-299 in site B you want to configure the following dialpeers

2811 Site A
dial-peer voice 4 voip
 description send calls to site B
 destination-pattern 2..
 session target ipv4:192.168.0.2 (ip address of 2811 at site B)
 session transport udp
 dtmf-relay h245-alphanumeric
 no vad

2811 site B
dial-peer voice 4 voip
 description Send Calls to site A
 destination-pattern 1..
 session target ipv4:192.168.0.1
 session transport udp
 dtmf-relay h245-alphanumeric
 no vad

Also note that you  dont have to have two cme systems, depending on the quality/reliability and speed of you wan, you can register your phones in site B with CME in Site A. (this is not recommended over a VPN link as there is no quality of service)

Hi Irmoore,
I went through the links i did not find the example i am looking for.


Hi Louis_E,
We have a Hybrid telephone system and we cant change it.
I every thing works fine.

The purpose of the 2 Call Managers is to route the calls between the branch offices using the IP Network instead of using PSTN network to save the STD Costs.
and also we will have some extra features from call manager to use the soft phones.

so i need an example for callmanager to take the calls from E1 line and forward them via IP Network to other Callmanager and that one will take the calls from IP network and forward them via E1 line  to other branch PBX

regards
Naren

OK this is not Call manager. what you want to do involves only standard network routing.
Call manager only becomes involded when you are actually using Call manager as a PBX and registering IP telephones to it.

what you want to do is setup a a dialing rule on they Hybrid PBX at site A that when a certain extension (ie ext that exists at site B) is dialed it is forwarded to the IP address  of the E1 interface of the Hybrid PBX at site B. And the inverse rule configured at site B.

You will then need to make sure that routing is working properly between site A and B(ie site b is accessable from site a and vice versa). so try doing some pings to both the E1 interfaces on each of the Hybrid PBX's


 

by: r_naren22atyahooPosted on 2007-01-15 at 14:01:41ID: 18319729

E1 is the telephone interface we call it as OnRamp 30, i.e. we will have 30 channels on that E1 line

I can only route the calls to E1 line from current Hybrid PBX,
and cisco 2811 is the least product which has E1 interface and TCP/IP Interface. which is also a call manager.

thats why i said call manager, i guess its the call manager job that will take the calls on E1 line and route it via IP Network.

I dont think there is another basic product in cisco with E1 Interface.

Naren
