Information About Cisco Unified Communications Gateway Services

Extended Media Forking (XMF) Provider and XMF Connection

The XMF provider allows applications to monitor calls and trigger media forking on the calls and has the capability to service up to 32 applications. The XMF provider can invoke a call-based or a connection-based media forking using the Unified Communications (UC) API. After the media forking is invoked, it can preserve the media forking initiated by the web application if the WAN connection to the application is lost. The XMF provider also provides the recording tone to the parties involved in the call.

The XMF connection describes the relationship between an XMF call and the endpoint (or trunk) involved in the call. A connection abstraction maintained in the gateway has the following connection states:

  • IDLE: This state is the initial state for all new connections. Such connections are not actively part of a telephone call, yet their references to the Call and Address objects are valid. Connections typically do not stay in the IDLE state for long and quickly transition to other states. The application may choose to be notified at this state using the event filters and if done, call/connection at the gateway provider will use the NotifyXmfConnectionData(CREATED) message to notify the application listener that a new connection is created.

  • ADDRESS_COLLECT: In this state the initial information package is collected from the originating party and is examined according to the “dialing plan” to determine the end of collection of addressing information. In this state, the call in the gateway collects digits from the endpoint. No notification is provided.

  • CALL_DELIVERY: On the originating side, this state involves selecting of the route as well as sending an indication of the desire to set up a call to the specified called party. On the terminating side, this state involves checking the busy/idle status of the terminating access and also informing the terminating message of an incoming call. The application may choose to be notified at this state using the event filters and if done, the call or connection at the gateway provider will use the NotifyXmfConnectionData (CALL_DELIVERY) message to notify the application listener.

  • ALERTING: This state implies that the Address is being notified of an incoming call. The application may choose to be notified at this state using the event filters and if done, the call or connection at the gateway provider will use the NotifyXmfConnectionData (ALERTING) message to notify the application listener.

  • CONNECTED: This state implies that a connection and its Address is actively part of a telephone call. In common terms, two parties talking to one another are represented by two connections in the CONNECTED state. The application may choose to be notified at this state using the event filters and if done, the call or connection at the gateway provider will use the NotifyXmfConnectionData (CONNECTED) message to notify the application listener.

  • DISCONNECTED: This state implies it is no longer part of the telephone call. A Connection in this state is interpreted as once previously belonging to this telephone call. The application may choose to be notified at this state using the event filters and if done, the call or connection at the gateway provider will use the NotifyXmfConnectionData (DISCONNECTED) message to notify the application listener.

XMF Call-Based Media Forking

In call-based media forking of the gateway, the stream from the calling party is termed as near-end stream and the stream from the called party is termed as far-end stream. The XMF provider actively handles single media forking request per session. Any new media forking request from the external application will override or stop the current forking instance and would start a new forking instance (to the appropriate target IP address or ports). After the media forking request is accepted, the XMF provider returns a response message and starts to fork media streams of a connection to the target forked streams. A NotifyXmfCallData message will be notified to the application for the updated media forking status, that is, FORK-FAILED, FORK_STARTED, or FORK_DONE.

XMF Connection-Based Media Forking

In connection-based media forking of the gateway, the incoming stream to the connection is termed as near-end stream and the outgoing stream of the connection is termed as far-end stream. The XMF provider actively handles single media forking request per session. Any new media forking request from the external application will override or stop the current forking instance and would start a new forking instance (to the appropriate target IP address or ports). After the media forking request is accepted, the XMF provider returns a response message and starts to fork media streams of a connection to the target forked streams.

Figure 1. XMF Connection-Based Media Forking



A NotifyXmfConnectionData message will be notified to the application for the updated media forking status:

  • FORK_FAILED—Media forking is setup failure. No forked RTP connections can be established to target RTP addresses.

  • FORK_STARTED—Media forking is set up successfully. Both Tx (transmit) and Rx (receive) forked RTP connections are established and connected to target (farEnd and nearEnd) RTP addresses.

  • FORK_DONE—Media forking is completed. Both Tx and Rx forked RTP connections are released.

Cisco UC Gateway Services Media Forking API with Survivability TCL

Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE) supports Survivability TCL Script to co-exist with Cisco Unified Communication (UC) Services API.

Cisco UC Services API XMF interface supports media forking for all the calls controlled by survivability TCL script including the survivability re-attempted calls. Thus, all the calls controlled by survivability TCL script can be recorded when requested by Cisco UC Services XMF API.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager controlled Gateway recording utilizes XMF to trigger media forking on CUBE or SIP based PSTN gateways in the supported call flows.


Note
Media forking is allowed only for survivability TCL script supported by Cisco Unified Customer Voice Portal (CVP). CVP survivability TCL script is not supported in High Availability mode.

The following call scenarios are supported:

  • Basic comprehensive call

  • Calls with Refer Consume

  • Calls with Mid-call failure

  • Calls with alternative route with initial call failure

There are no configuration changes required for enabling CVP survivability TCL support with Cisco UC Gateway Services API.

Media Forking for SRTP Calls

  • SRTP forking is supported in XCC and XMF application service providers and the supported APIs are RequestCallMediaForking, RequestCallMediaSetAttributes, and RequestConnectionMediaForking.

  • SRTP forking is supported for SRTP-to-SRTP, SRTP-to-RTP, and RTP-to-SRTP calls.

    • For SRTP-to-SRTP calls, media forking on either leg would result in SRTP streams being forked.

    • For SRTP fallback calls, after the initial offer, CUBE will fall back to RTP. Media forking either call legs would result in RTP streams being forked.

    • For SRTP-to-RTP interworking calls, a digital signal processor (DSP) is required and involves transcoding. In this case, one leg would be SRTP and the other leg RTP.

  • SRTP Crypto keys are notified over the API.

  • Supports automatic stopping of media forking when stream changes from SRTP or to SRTP.

    • The optional mediaForkingReason tag in XMF or XCC Notify messages indicates that the forking has been stopped internally.

    • mediaForkingReason tag is only present when the connection changes state, such as mid-call re-INVITE. SRTP stream can change to RTP or SRTP stream can change keys mid-call.

    • mediaForkingReason tag is always accompanied by FORK_DONE.

Crypto Tag

For SRTP forking, the optional Crypto tag in NotifyXmfConnectionData or NotifyXmfCallData message indicates the context of an actively forked SRTP connection.


Note
The Crypto tag is only present in the notification message where FORK_STARTED tag is present.

The optional Crypto tag specifies the following:

  • The Crypto suite used for encryption and authentication algorithm.

  • The base64 encoded mastery key and salt used for encryption.

Crypto suite can be one of the two suites supported in IOS:

  • AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_32

  • AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_80

Multiple XMF Applications and Recording Tone

Multiple XMF allows multiple (maximum 32) web applications to register with the XMF provider as separate XMF applications and provide redundancy for the voice calls recording. Recording tone provides recording tone capability to the recording sessions. Recording tone is supported for IP to IP, IP to TDM, and TDM to TDM trunks.

An example topology is as shown below where 4 CUCM applications are deployed. CUCM triggers media forking request to Cisco UBE. Recording tone is played to the parties involved in the call based on the recordTone parameter set in the media forking request.

Figure 2. Multiple XMF Applications and Recording Tone



Media forking can be invoked using any of the following APIs:

  • RequestXmfConnectionMediaForking

  • RequestXmfCallMediaForking

  • RequestXmfCallMediaSetAttributes

The “recordTone” parameter can be enabled in any of the above requests and recording tone will be played for the parties involved in the call. The “recordTone” parameter in the API request can have the following values:

  • COUNTRY_US

  • COUNTRY_AUSTRALIA

  • COUNTRY_GERMANY

  • COUNTRY_RUSSIA

  • COUNTRY_SPAIN

  • COUNTRY_SWITZERLAND

There is no difference in the recording tone beep when any country value is chosen. Recording tone beep is played at an interval of every 15 seconds. Digital signal processors and other resources are not utilized for playing recording tone even for transcoded calls. No specific configuration is required to enable or disable recording tone. By default, no recording tone is enabled.

If “recordTone” parameter is enabled only on the farEndAddr, then this tone is played only on the outgoing leg. Likewise, if enabled only on the nearEndAddr, then the tone is played only on the incoming leg. When enabled in both the far and near end, then recording tone is played on both the legs.

The RequestXmfConnectionMediaForking API allows insertion of recording tone on a per connection basis. There could be scenarios where one leg receives two recordTone insertion requests. When a leg receives recordTone insertion request, the nearEnd request always takes precedence over the farEnd request.

Forking Preservation

After media forking is initiated by the web application, the forking can be preserved to continue the recording, even if the WAN connection to the application is lost or if the application is unregistered.

Figure 3. Forking Preservation



The “preserve” parameter value can be set to TRUE or FALSE in any of the 3 forking requests (RequestXmfConnectionMediaForking, RequestXmfCallMediaForking, or RequestXmfCallMediaSetAttributes) from the application to Cisco UBE.

  • If the “preserve” parameter received is TRUE, then forking will continue the recording, even if the WAN connection to application is lost or application is unregistered.

  • If the “preserve” parameter received is FALSE, then forking will not continue the recording.

  • If the “preserve” parameter is not received in the media forking request, then forking will not continue the recording.

    Example:
    Device> enable
     

    Enables privileged EXEC mode.

    • Enter your password if prompted.

     
    Step 2configure terminal


    Example:
    Device# configure terminal
     

    Enters global configuration mode.

     
    Step 3ip http server


    Example:
    Device(config)# ip http server
     

    Enables the HTTP server (web server) on the system.

     
    Step 4ip http max-connections value


    Example:
    Device(config)# ip http max-connection 100
     

    Sets the maximum number of concurrent connections to the HTTP sever that will be allowed. The default value is 5.

     
    Step 5ip http timeout-policy idle seconds life seconds requests value


    Example:
    Device(config)# ip http timeout-policy idle 600 life 86400 requests 86400
     
    Sets the characteristics that determine how long a connection to the HTTP server should remain open. The characteristics are:

    • idle—The maximum number of seconds the connection will be kept open if no data is received or response data can not be sent out on the connection. Note that a new value may not take effect on any already existing connections. If the server is too busy or the limit on the life time or the number of requests is reached, the connection may be closed sooner. The default value is 180 seconds (3 minutes).

    • life—The maximum number of seconds the connection will be kept open, from the time the connection is established. Note that the new value may not take effect on any already existing connections. If the server is too busy or the limit on the idle time or the number of requests is reached, it may close the connection sooner. Also, since the server will not close the connection while actively processing a request, the connection may remain open longer than the specified life time if processing is occurring when the life maximum is reached. In this case, the connection will be closed when processing finishes. The default value is 180 seconds (3 minutes). The maximum value is 86400 seconds (24 hours).

    • requests—The maximum limit on the number of requests processed on a persistent connection before it is closed. Note that the new value may not take effect on any already existing connections. If the server is too busy or the limit on the idle time or the life time is reached, the connection may be closed before the maximum number of requests are processed. The default value is 1. The maximum value is 86400.

     
    Step 6 http client connection idle timeout seconds


    Example:
    Device(config)# http client connection idle timeout 600
     

    Sets the number of seconds that the client waits in the idle state until it closes the connection.

     
    Step 7uc wsapi


    Example:
    Device(config)# uc wsapi
     

    Enters Cisco Unified Communication IOS Service configuration mode.

     
    Step 8message-exchange max-failures number


    Example:
    Device(config-uc-wsapi)# message-exchange max-failures 2
     

    Configures the maximum number of failed message exchanges between the application and the provider before the provider stops sending messages to the application. Range is 1 to 3. Default is 1.

     
    Step 9 probing max-failures number


    Example:
    Device(config-uc-wsapi)# probing max-failures 5
     

    Configures the maximum number of failed probing messages before the router unregisters the application. Range is 1 to 5. Default is 3.

     
    Step 10probing interval keepalive seconds


    Example:
    Device(config-uc-wsapi)# probing interval keepalive 255
     

    Configures the maximum number of failed probing messages before the router unregisters the application. Range is 1 to 5. Default is 3.

     
    Step 11probing interval negative seconds


    Example:
    Device(config-uc-wsapi)# probing interval negative 10
     

    Configures the interval between negative probing messages, in seconds.

     
    Step 12source-address ip-address


    Example:
    Device(config-uc-wsapi)# source-address 192.1.12.14
          		Configures the IP address (hostname) as the source IP address for the UC IOS service.
    Note    The source IP address is used by the provider in the NotifyProviderStatus messages.

        Configuration Examples for UC Gateway Services

        Example: Configuring Cisco Unified Communication IOS Services

        The following example shows how to configure the device for Cisco Unified Communication IOS Services and enable the HTTP server:

        Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# ip http server
Device(config)# ip http max-connection 100
Device(config)# ip http timeout-policy idle 600 life 86400 requests 86400
Device(config)# http client connection idle timeout 600
Device(config)# uc wsapi
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# message-exchange max-failures 2
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# probing max-failures 5
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# probing interval keepalive 255
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# probing interval negative 10
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# source-address 192.1.12.14
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# end

        Example: Configuring the XMF Provider

        The following example shows how to enable the XMF providers. The configuration specifies the address and port that the application uses to communicate with the XMF provider: 

        Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# uc wsapi
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# provider xmf
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# no shutdown
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# remote-url 1 http://test.com:8090/ucm_xmf
Device(config-uc-wsapi)# end
