Set up SIP Local Gateway#

Before You Begin

  • You must configure an IOS Device at the customer hierarchy node.

  • You must configure an NDL containing the Cisco Unified CM for the customer.

  • You must configure a SIP Trunk at the customer hierarchy node.

A SIP Local Gateway is a logical gateway running on a physical IOS device.

Procedure

  1. Log in as provider, reseller, or customer administrator.

  2. Set the hierarchy path to the customer for which you are setting up the SIP Local Gateway.

  3. Choose Device Management > IOS > SIP Local Gateways.

  4. Click Add.

  5. On the SIP Local Gateways screen, complete at minimum, the mandatory SIP Local Gateways Fields.

  6. Click Save.

    • The SIP Local Gateway appears in the SIP Local Gateway list view.

    • The HcsAddSipLocalGwEVT event is generated. If enabled, the IOS Command Builder generates the default IOS commands associated with the event.

    • The HcsAddSipLocalGwDialPeerEVT event is generated. If enabled, the IOS Command Builder generates the default IOS commands associated with the event for each dial peer.

SIP Local Gateways Fields#

Field

Description

Name *

Enter a name for the SIP Local Gateway. This field is mandatory.

Description

Enter a description for the SIP Local Gateway.

IOS Device *

Choose the IOS Device on which the SIP Local Gateway is located. This field is mandatory. Note:

An IOS Device can have only one SIP Local Gateway.

Once selected, the IOS Device cannot be changed.

Country *

Choose the country where the SIP Local Gateway is. This field is mandatory.

The country selected must be the same country as the Site to which the SIP local gateway will be associated.

CUCM Publisher *

Choose the CUCM Publisher. All CUCM Publishers that are in the customer’s NDL are displayed. This field is mandatory.

The chosen CUCM Publisher must be the same as the CUCM Publisher in the NDL for the Site to which the SIP local gateway will be associated.

SIP Trunk *

Choose the SIP Trunk from the ones available on the CUCM Publisher. This field is mandatory. Note:

Only SIP Trunks configured at the customer hierarchy are available. If the customer uses a shared CUCM, then SIP Trunks must be manually configured at the customer level in VOSS Automate to be selectable here.

Gateway Address

Gateway Address. This field is read-only and is derived from the selected SIP Trunk.

Note:

If a SIP Trunk has multiple destination addresses, only the first one is used.

Gateway Port

Gateway Port. This field is read-only and is derived from the selected SIP Trunk.

Run on Every Node

Indicates whether call processing is distributed across all CUCM subscriber nodes. This field is read-only and is derived from the selected SIP Trunk.

Dial Peer Info

If the Run on Every Node is cleared then the Call Manager Group members are displayed in priority order.

If the Run on Every Node check box is selected, then all CUCM nodes in the cluster are displayed, but without priority.

Enable Command Builder *

Select this check box to have Command Builder generate commands when SIP Local Gateway is added, deleted, or modified. Default = Selected.

If this is checked and the Override below is also checked, then E164-to-DN disassociation will fail if it exceeds the default limit. This setting should therefore be un-selected for disassociation to succeed in this case.

Override Voice Translation Limit ** Warning may invalidate Command Builder Configuration**

Select this check box to override Voice Translation Limit if E164 associations exceed 80. Default = Cleared. Note that once checked and saved, then un-checking will not reset the limit to 80. Contact VOSS support or a high level admin to reset it to 80.
