VoIP

This call type occurs when an endpoint located in a site wants to reach a destination on the PSTN through the Voice over IP (VoIP) provider. The cluster in which the site is located provides the source country dial plan and routing is based on the source country.

The call type includes:

  • SIP/SCCP signaling traffic for the endpoint between the endpoint and Cisco Unified Communications Manager

  • SIP signaling traffic is used for the SIP Gateway to the VoIP network and Cisco Unified Communications Manager

  • SIP Gateway to the VoIP network can be PRI as well

  • VoIP network can be connected through the Session Border Controller (not shown in the diagram)

  • Media traffic between the endpoint and SIP trunk SBC

Off-Net Call (VoIP)
