To specify the DS0 time slots that make up a logical voice port on a T1 controller, to specify the signaling type by which
the router communicates with the PBX or PSTN, and to define T1 channels for compressed voice calls and the channel-associated
signaling (CAS) method by which the router connects to the PBX or PSTN, use the
ds0 -group command in controller configuration mode. To remove the group and signaling setting, use the
no form of this command.

Syntax Description
ds0
-group -number
|
A value that identifies the DS0 group. Range is from 0 to 23.
|
timeslots
timeslot-list
|
Lists time slots in the DS0 group. The
timeslot-list argument is a single time-slot number, a single range of numbers, or multiple ranges of numbers separated by commas. Range
is from 1 to 24. Examples are as follows:
-
2
-
1-15,17-24
-
1-23
-
2,4,6-12
|
typenone
|
Specifies the type of signaling for the DS0 group. The signaling method selection for the type keyword depends on the connection
that you are making. The ear and mouth (E&M) interface allows connection for PBX trunk lines (tie lines) and telephone equipment.
The Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) interface allows connection of basic telephone equipment and a PBX interface. The Foreign
Exchange Office (FXO) interface is for connecting the central office (CO) to a standard PBX interface where permitted by local
regulations; it is often used for off-premise extensions (OPXs). Types are as follows:
-
e&m-delay-dial
--The originating endpoint sends an off-hook signal and then waits for an off-hook signal followed by an on-hook signal from
the destination.
-
e&m-fgb
--E&M Type II Feature Group B.
-
e&m-fgd
--E&M Type II Feature Group D.
-
e&m-immediate-start
--E&M immediate start.
-
e&m-lmr
--E&M Land Mobile Radio (LMR).
-
e&m-wink-start
--The originating endpoint sends an off-hook signal and waits for a wink-start from the destination.
-
ext-sig
--The external signaling interface specifies that the signaling traffic comes from an outside source.
-

11.2
|
This command was introduced for the Cisco AS5300 as the
cas-group command.
|
11.3(1)MA
|
The command was introduced as the
voice-group command for the Cisco MC3810.
|
12.0(1)T
|
This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(1)T, and the

Support for this command was implemented on the Cisco MC3810. When the
ds0-group command became available on the Cisco MC3810, the
voice-group command was removed and no longer supported. The
ext-sig keyword replaced the
ext-sig-master and
ext-sig-slave keywords that were available with the
voice-group command.

Usage Guidelines
The
ds0-group command automatically creates a logical voice port that is numbered as follows:
-
Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 2600XM, Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, Cisco 3745, and Cisco 7200 series:
- slot /port
:
ds0-group-number
-
Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, and Cisco AS5400 with a T1 controller:
-
Cisco AS5850 with a T1 controller:
- slot /port
:
ds0-group-number
Although only one voice port is created for each group, applicable calls are routed to any channel in the group.
Be sure that you take the following into account when you are configuring DS0 groups:
-
Channel groups, CAS voice groups, DS0 groups, and time-division multiplexing (TDM) groups all use group numbers. All group
numbers configured for channel groups, CAS voice groups, DS0 groups, and TDM groups must be unique on the local router. For
example, you cannot use the same group number for a channel group and for a TDM group.
-
The keywords available for the
ds0-group command are dependent upon the Cisco IOS software release that you are using. For the most current information, go to the
Cisco Feature Navigator home page at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/go/fn
-
When you are using command-line interface (CLI) help, the keywords for the
ds0-group command are configuration specific. For example, if MGCP is configured, you see the
mgcp keyword. If you are not using MGCP, you do not see the
mgcp keyword.
Note
|
This command does not support the extended echo canceller (EC) feature on the Cisco AS5x00 series.
|
Note
|
The signaling type R1-ITU is not supported on the Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, and Cisco AS5400 platforms.
|
Examples
The following example shows ranges of T1 controller time slots configured for FXS ground-start and FXO loop-start signaling:
controller T1 1/0
framing esf
linecode b8zs
ds0-group 1 timeslots 1-10 type fxs-ground-start
ds0-group 2 timeslots 11-24 type fxo-loop-start
The following example shows ranges of T1 controller time slots configured for FXS ground-start signaling:
controller T1 1/0
ds0-group 1 timeslots 1-4 type fxs-ground-start
The following example illustrates setting the T1 channels for Signaling System 7 (SS7) service on any trunking gateway using
the
mgcp keyword:
ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-24 service mgcp type none
In the following example, the time slot maximum is 12 and the time slot is 1, so two voice ports are created successfully:
controller T1 0/0
ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-4 type e&m-immediate-start
ds0-group 1 timeslots 6-12 type e&m-immediate-start
If a third DS0 group is added, the voice port is rejected even though the total number of voice channels is fewer than 16.
ds0-group 2 timeslots 17-18 type e&m-immediate-start
In the following example, the signaling type is set to E&M LMR:
ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-10 type e&m-lmr
You have the option to retain info digits when you are configuring E&M Type II Feature Group D with MF signaling and ANI/DNIS
for calls being sent over IP. Info digits denote the subscriber type, and the
info-digits keyword prepends info digits to the calling number.
On inbound calls from a T1 FGD voice-port with MF ANI/DNIS, when ANI information is obtained, it is passed unaltered to the
next matching dial peer, either POTS or VoIP. The addition of the
info-digits-no-strip keyword allows you to retain the info digits portion of the ANI information; the modified ANI is then passed to the next
matching dial peer. Ordinarily, info digits are not valid for calls going over IP and are, therefore, stripped off. The ability
to retain info digits is particularly useful for calls that are not leaving the PSTN network and are just being hairpinned
back.
In the following example, the E&M Type II Feature Group D is configured with MF signaling and ANI/DNIS over IP while retaining
info digits:
ds0-group 0 timeslots 1-24 type e&m-fgd mf ani-dnis info-digits-no-strip
The following example enables FGD EMF:
ds0-group 11 timeslots 11 type fgd-emf ani
ds0-group 11 timeslots 11 type fgd-emf ani-pani
