Configuring NAS Package for MGCP

This chapter provides information on configuring the Network Access Server (NAS) Package for MGCP feature. The feature adds support for the MGCP NAS package on universal gateways. Data calls can be terminated on a trunking media gateway that is serving as a NAS. Trunks on the NAS are controlled and managed by a call agent supporting MGCP for both voice and data calls. The call agent must support the MGCP NAS package.

Key feature benefits derive from the presence of universal ports that are able to terminate both voice and data calls under control of the MGCP call agent. These benefits include the following:

  • Cost savings
    • Sharing of trunks (T1 or E1) for dial and voice services
    • Collapsed IP backbone infrastructure
    • Simplified operations and management
  • Increased revenue
    • Optimized utilization of trunk (T1 or E1) resources

  • Flexibility in deploying new services

  • Flexibility in access network engineering

  • Configure MGCP.

Information About NAS Package for MGCP

This feature adds support for the Network Access Server Package for Media Gateway Control Protocol package on the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 universal gateways. With this implementation, data calls can be terminated on a trunking media gateway that is serving as a network access server (NAS). Trunks on the NAS are controlled and managed by a call agent that supports Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) for both voice and data calls. The call agent must support the MGCP NAS package.

These capabilities are enabled by the universal port functionality of the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850, which allows these platforms to operate simultaneously as network access servers and voice gateways to deliver universal services on any port at any time. These universal services include dial access, real-time voice and fax, wireless data access, and unified communications.

The MGCP NAS package implements signals and events to create, modify, and tear down data calls. The events include signaling the arrival of an outbound call (IP to Public Switched Telephone Network [PSTN]) to the media gateway controller (call agent), reporting carrier loss and call authorization status, and receiving callback requests. The following types of calls can be terminated as data calls:

  • Data within the voice band (analog modem)

  • ISDN data (digital modem)

  • Data over voice when using a call agent that recognizes this call type and delivers these calls as digital data to the NAS

The NAS package provides MGCP capabilities for data calls on the Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, and Cisco AS5850 that support all the dial-in and dial-out services, including the following:

  • Virtual Private Network (VPN) with Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)

  • Scalable Multichassis Multilink PPP (MMP) across multiple channels

  • MGCP 1.0 and MGCP 0.1

  • Call preauthentication with MGCP dial calls

Resource pool management can be used to manage dial ports when dialed number identification service (DNIS) preauthentication is enabled. The NAS returns an error with a preauthentication failure code to the call agent, which releases the call gracefully with a busy cause. Refer to the Cisco IOS Release 12.3 Configuration Guides and Command References , for more information about dial-pool management, and for more information about authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) preauthentication services.

The figure below shows a typical network topology for universal port media gateways.

Figure 1. Media Gateways Operating As Network Access Servers

How to Configure NAS Package for MGCP

With the Network Access Server Package for Media Gateway Control Protocol feature, the NAS supports both data and voice calls, which can be managed from a single call agent that supports MGCP with the NAS package. The NAS package provides the interface to a call agent (media gateway controller) for handling modem calls that terminate on the NAS and that originate from the PSTN, including callback requests. Results of AAA authorization and preauthorization requests from the NAS are reported to the call agent as notifications.

See the following sections for configuration tasks for the Network Access Server Package for Media Gateway Control Protocol feature. Each task in the list is identified as either required or optional.

Configuring the NAS for MGCP

In this task, MGCP is configured on the trunking gateway (NAS), and the NAS package is set as the default package. The steps that are listed are the minimum needed to configure MGCP on the NAS. For more commands and optional settings for MGCP, see the documents listed in the "Related Documents" section on page xi .

To configure the NAS Package for MGCP feature, use the following commands in global configuration mode:

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. mgcp [gw-port ]
  2. mgcp call-agent {dns-name | ip-address } [ca-port ] [service-type type ] [version protocol-version ]
  3. mgcp default-package nas-package

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose
Step 1

mgcp [gw-port ]

Example:


Router(config)# mgcp [gw-port
]

Allocates resources for MGCP and starts the MGCP daemon.

If no port is specified, the command defaults to port 2427.

Step 2

mgcp call-agent {dns-name | ip-address } [ca-port ] [service-type type ] [version protocol-version ]

Example:


Router(config)# mgcp call-agent {dns-name
 | ip-address
} [ca-port
] [service-type type
] [version protocol-version
]

Configures the gateway with the address and protocol of the call agent (media gateway controller). Make sure to specify a call agent that supports the NAS package.

Step 3

mgcp default-package nas-package

Example:


Router(config)# mgcp default-package nas-package

(Optional) Defines the default package to be used for MGCP signaling. For this feature, specify the NAS-Package. Default generally used on trunking gateways is Trunk-Package and can be left unchanged.

Configuring Controllers

In this task, in addition to the standard controller commands, you configure a T1 or E1 controller for external signaling control by MGCP. You can also set the AAA preauthentication timer to expire after a certain number of milliseconds have elapsed without a response from the AAA server and indicate whether the call should be accepted or rejected if no response occurs before the timer expires.

To configure a controller to use the Network Access Server Package for Media Gateway Control Protocol feature, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. controller {t1 | e1 } slot/port
  2. Do one of the following:
    • framing {sf | esf }
    • for TI lines
    • or for E1 lines
    • framing {crc4 | no-crc4 } [australia ]
  3. extsig mgcp
  4. guard-timer milliseconds [on-expiry {accept | reject }]
  5. Do one of the following:
    • linecode {ami | b8zs }
    • for T1 lines
    • or for E1 lines
    • linecode {ami | hdb3 }
  6. ds0-group channel-number timeslots range type none service mgcp
  7. exit

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose
Step 1

controller {t1 | e1 } slot/port

Example:


Router(config)# controller {t1 | e1} slot/  port

Configures a T1 or E1 controller and enters controller configuration mode.

Step 2

Do one of the following:

  • framing {sf | esf }
  • for TI lines
  • or for E1 lines
  • framing {crc4 | no-crc4 } [australia ]

Example:


Router(config-controller)# framing {sf | esf}

Example:

Example:


Router(config-controller)# framing {crc4 | no-crc4} [australia]

Selects the frame type for the T1 or E1 trunk.

T1 default is sf . E1 default is crc4 .

Step 3

extsig mgcp

Example:


Router(config-controller)# extsig mgcp

Configures external signaling control by MGCP for this controller. For T3 trunks, each logical T1 must be configured with the extsig mgcp command.

Step 4

guard-timer milliseconds [on-expiry {accept | reject }]

Example:


Router(config-controller)# guard-timer milliseconds
 [on-expiry {accept | reject}]

(Optional) Sets a guard timer for the number of milliseconds to wait for a AAA server to respond to a preauthentication request before expiring. Also specifies the default action to take when the timer expires without a response from AAA.

Step 5

Do one of the following:

  • linecode {ami | b8zs }
  • for T1 lines
  • or for E1 lines
  • linecode {ami | hdb3 }

Example:


Router(config-controller)# linecode {ami | b8zs}

Example:

Example:


Router(config-controller)# ds0-group channel-number

Example:


timeslots range
 type none service mgcp

Specifies the DS0 time slots that make up a logical voice port on a T1 or E1 controller and specifies the signaling type by which the router connects to the PBX or PSTN.

Step 7

exit

Example:


Router(config-controller)#
 
exit

Exits the current mode.

Configuring Dialer Interfaces and Routing

This set of tasks configures dial-on-demand routing (DDR) on a dialer interface that is under external call control by MGCP.

DDR refers to a collection of Cisco features that allows two or more Cisco routers to establish a dynamic connection over simple dial-up facilities to route packets and exchange routing updates on an as-needed basis. DDR is used for low-volume, periodic network connections over the PSTN or an ISDN. A connection is automatically established whenever interesting traffic is detected; during configuration you define what constitutes interesting traffic.

ISDN B channels, synchronous serial interfaces, and asynchronous interfaces can all be converted to dialer interfaces using dialer interface configuration commands.

DDR provides several functions. First, DDR spoofs, or pretends, that there are established configured routes to provide the image of full-time connectivity using the dialer interfaces. When the routing table forwards a packet to a dialer interface, DDR filters out the interesting packets for establishing, maintaining, and releasing switched connections. Internetworking is achieved over the DDR-maintained connection using PPP or other WAN encapsulation techniques.

The encapsulation methods available depend on the physical interface being used. Cisco supports PPP, High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC), Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP), and X.25 data-link encapsulations for DDR. PPP is the recommended encapsulation method because it supports multiple protocols and is used for synchronous, asynchronous, or ISDN connections. In addition, PPP performs address negotiation and authentication, and it is interoperable with different vendors.

There are two ways of setting up addressing on dialer interfaces:

  • Applying a subnet to the dialer interfaces--Each site with a dialer interface is given a unique node address on a shared subnet for use on its dialer interface. This method is similar to numbering a LAN or multipoint WAN, and it simplifies the addressing scheme and creation of static routes.

  • Using unnumbered interfaces--Similar to using unnumbered addressing on leased-line point-to-point interfaces, the address of another interface on the router is borrowed for use on the dialer interface. Unnumbered addressing takes advantage of the fact that there are only two devices on the point-to-point link.

DDR uses manually entered static network protocol routes. This eliminates the use of a routing protocol that broadcasts routing updates across the DDR connection, causing unnecessary connections.

Similar to the function provided by an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table, dialer map statements translate next-hop protocol addresses to telephone numbers. Without statically configured dialer maps, DDR call initiation cannot occur. When the routing table points at a dialer interface, and the next-hop address is not found in a dialer map, the packet is dropped.

Authentication in DDR network design provides two functions: security and dialer state. As most DDR networks connect to the PSTN, it is imperative that a strong security model be implemented to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive resources. Authentication also allows the DDR code to keep track of what sites are currently connected and provides for building of Multilink PPP bundles.

In summary, the following main tasks are involved in configuring the dialer interface and routing:

  • Specification of interesting traffic--What traffic type should enable the link?

  • Definition of static routes--What route do you take to get to the destination?

  • Configuration of dialer information--What number do you call to get to the next-hop router, and what service parameters do you use for the call?

For MGCP NAS, configuration of dialer interfaces entails the use of the dialer extsig command in interface configuration mode, which enables the External Call Service Provider (XCSP) subsystem to provide an interface between the Cisco IOS software and the MGCP protocol. The XCSP subsystem enables services such as modem call setup and teardown for the dialer interface.

To configure the dialer interface and routing, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode:

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. interface dialer-name
  2. Do one of the following:
    • ip unnumbered interface-number
    • ip address ip-address subnet-mask [secondary ]
  3. encapsulation ppp
  4. dialer in-band [no-parity | odd-parity ]
  5. dialer idle-timeout seconds [inbound | either ]
  6. dialer map protocol next-hop-address [name host-name ] [dial-string [: isdn-subaddress ]]
  7. dialer extsig
  8. dialer-group number
  9. no cdp enable
  10. ppp authentication chap
  11. exit
  12. dialer list number protocol protocol-name {permit | deny [list access-list-number | access-group ]}
  13. ip route prefix mask {ip-address | interface-type interface-number } [distance ] [tag tag ] [permanent ]

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose
Step 1

interface dialer-name

Example:


Router(config)# interface dialer-name

Enters interface mode for the dialer interface.

Step 2

Do one of the following:

  • ip unnumbered interface-number
  • ip address ip-address subnet-mask [secondary ]

Example:


Router(config-if)# ip unnumbered interface-number

Example:

Example:


Router(config-if)# ip address ip-address
 subnet-mask
 [secondary]

Enables IP processing on the dialer interface, configures the dialer interface not to have an explicit IP address, and assigns the IP address of the loopback interface instead. This command helps conserve IP addresses.

Step 3

encapsulation ppp

Example:


Router(config-if)# encapsulation ppp

Sets encapsulation type for PPP.

Step 4

dialer in-band [no-parity | odd-parity ]

Example:


Router(config-if)#
 
dialer in-band [no-parity | odd-parity]

Specifies that dial-on-demand routing (DDR) is to be supported. The in-band keyword specifies that the same interface that sends the data performs call setup and teardown operations between the router and an external dialing device such as a modem.

By default, no parity is applied to the dialer string.

Step 5

dialer idle-timeout seconds [inbound | either ]

Example:


Router(config-if)# dialer idle-timeout seconds
 [inbound | either]

Specifies the duration of idle time before a line is disconnected.

Default direction is outbound. Default idle time is 120 seconds.

Step 6

dialer map protocol next-hop-address [name host-name ] [dial-string [: isdn-subaddress ]]

Example:


Router(config-if)# dialer map protocol
 next-hop-address
 [name host-name
] [dial-string
[:  isdn-subaddress
]]

Configures a serial interface to make digital calls or to accept incoming calls from a specified location and to authenticate if so configured.

Step 7

dialer extsig

Example:


Router(config-if)#
 
dialer extsig

Specifies an interface for the initiation and termination of digital calls for external signaling protocols. Only one dialer with external signaling per NAS is permitted.

Step 8

dialer-group number

Example:


Router(config-if)# dialer-group number

Controls access by configuring an interface to belong to a specific dialing group.

Step 9

no cdp enable

Example:


Router(config-if)# no cdp enable

Disables Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) on the interface.

Step 10

ppp authentication chap

Example:


Router(config-if)# ppp authentication chap

Enables Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) authentication on the interface.

Step 11

exit

Example:


Router(config-if)# exit

Exits the current mode.

Step 12

dialer list number protocol protocol-name {permit | deny [list access-list-number | access-group ]}

Example:


Router(config)# dialer list number
 protocol protocol-name
 {permit | deny [list access-list-number
 | access-group
]}

Defines a DDR dialer list for dialing by protocol or by a combination of a protocol and a previously defined access list. Each dialer interface can have only one dialer group, but the same dialer list can be assigned to multiple interfaces (using the dialer-group command).

Step 13

ip route prefix mask {ip-address | interface-type interface-number } [distance ] [tag tag ] [permanent ]

Example:


Router(config)# ip route prefix
 mask
 {ip-address
 | interface-type interface-number
} [distance
] [tag tag
] [permanent]

Establishes a static route. Because you do not want dynamic routing protocols running across the DDR links, you manually configure static routes.

Controller Troubleshooting

The commands in this section can be helpful in finding sources of problems with call connections and switching. The call switching module (CSM) associated with a controller contains digit collection logic that processes incoming calls for automatic number information (ANI) and dialed number identification service (DNIS) digits.

To display information on controller and CSM configuration and operation, use the following commands in privileged EXEC mode.

Command

Purpose 


                
                  show  controllers   t1   | e1   [slot  /   port ]

Router# show controllers t1 | e1 [slot/  port
]

Displays whether the T1 or E1 connection between the router and switch (central office [CO] or PBX) is up or down and whether the connection is functioning properly.

See Example Output for show controllers e1 or t1 Command. 


                
                  show  voice  port   [slot  /   port ]

Router# show voice port [slot
/port
]

Displays the port state and the parameters configured on the voice ports of Cisco voice interface cards. Voice-port defaults, like all command-line interface default parameters, do not display in the output for the show running-config command, but they can be seen with the show voice port command.

See Example Output for show voice port Command. 


                
                  show  csm  modem   [slot /port  | modem-group-number ]

Router# show csm modem [slot
/port
 | modem-group-number
]

Displays the CSM call statistics for a specific modem, for a group of modems, or for all modems. 


                
                  debug  csm  modem   [slot /port  | group   modem-group-number ]

Router# debug csm modem [slot
/port
 | group modem-group-number
]

Traces the complete sequence of switching of incoming and outgoing modem call.

Dialer Interface and Routing Troubleshooting

To obtain information on dialer interfaces, routing configuration, and routing operations, use the following commands in privileged EXEC mode.

Command

Purpose 


                
                  show  dialer  map  
              

Router# show dialer map

Displays configured dynamic and static dialer maps.

See Example Output for show dialer map Command. 


                
                  show  dialer  
              

Router# show dialer

Displays general diagnostic information about an interface configured for DDR, such as the number of times the dialer string has been successfully reached, and the idle timer and the fast idle timer values for each B channel. Current call-specific information is also provided, such as the length of a call and the number and name of the device to which the interface is currently connected. When external signaling is configured, the output also displays the CDAPI state.

See Example Output for show dialer Command. 


                
                  show  interface   Dialer-num 

Router# show interface Dialer-num

Shows whether the interface and protocol are up (spoofing), a state in which the dialer interface pretends to be up/up so that associated routes remain in force and packets can be routed to the interface.

See Example Output for show interface Command. 


                
                  show  ip  route  
              

Router# show ip route

To debug dialer and authorization or to clear in-progress calls, use the following commands in privileged EXEC mode.

Command

Purpose 


                
                  debug  dialer  
              

Router# debug dialer

Displays the activity that triggers a dial attempt.

See Example Output for show dialer Command. 


                
                  clear  interface  
              

Router# clear interface

Clears a call that is in progress. In a troubleshooting situation, it is sometimes useful to clear historical statistics to track the current number of successful calls relative to failures. Use this command with care. It sometimes requires that you clear both the local and remote routers.

See Example Output for clear interface Command. 


                
                  debug  ppp  negotiation  
              

Router# debug ppp negotiation

Displays negotiation of PPP options and Network Control Protocol (NCP) parameters.

See Example Output for debug ppp negotiation Command. 


                
                  debug  ppp  authentication  
              

Router# debug ppp authentication

Displays exchange of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) and Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) packets.

See Example Output for debug ppp authentication Command.

Example Output for debug dialer Command

Displays the activity that triggers a dial attempt. 


Dialing cause: Async1: ip (s=172.16.1.111 d=172.16.2.22)
Example Output for clear interface Command

The following example demonstrates the use of the clear interface command with the RLM feature: 


Router# clear interface loopback 1
02:48:52: rlm 1: [State_Up, rx ACTIVE_LINK_BROKEN] over link [10.1.1.1(Loopback1), 10.1.4.1]

Example Output for debug ppp negotiation Command

The following is sample output from the debug ppp negotiation command. This is a normal negotiation, where both sides agree on Network Control Program (NCP) parameters. In this case, protocol type IP is proposed and acknowledged. 


Router# debug ppp negotiation
ppp: sending CONFREQ, type = 4 (CI_QUALITYTYPE), value = C025/3E8
ppp: sending CONFREQ, type = 5 (CI_MAGICNUMBER), value = 3D56CAC
ppp: received config for type = 4 (QUALITYTYPE) acked
ppp: received config for type = 5 (MAGICNUMBER) value = 3D567F8 acked (ok)
PPP Serial4: state = ACKSENT fsm_rconfack(C021): rcvd id 5
ppp: config ACK received, type = 4 (CI_QUALITYTYPE), value = C025
ppp: config ACK received, type = 5 (CI_MAGICNUMBER), value = 3D56CAC
ppp: ipcp_reqci: returning CONFACK.
(ok)
PPP Serial4: state = ACKSENT fsm_rconfack(8021): rcvd id 4

The following is sample output from the debug ppp negotiation command when the remote side of the connection is unable to respond to LQM requests: 


Router# debug ppp negotiation
ppp: sending CONFREQ, type = 4 (CI_QUALITYTYPE), value = C025/3E8
ppp: sending CONFREQ, type = 5 (CI_MAGICNUMBER), value = 44B7010
