Table 56-2 provides detailed descriptions for MGCP gateway configuration settings.

Table 56-2 MGCP Gateway Configuration Settings 

Field	Description
MGCP Domain Name	Enter a name of up to 64 characters that identifies the Cisco MGCP gateway. Use the Domain Name Service (DNS) host name if it is configured to resolve correctly; otherwise, use the host name as defined on the Cisco MGCP gateway. If you are using the host name as it is configured on the IOS gateway, the name that you enter here must match exactly. For example, if the hostname is configured on the gateway to resolve to vg200-1 and the IP domain name is not configured, enter the hostname in this field (in this case, vg200-1). If the hostname is configured on the gateway as vg200-1 and the IP domain name is configured on the gateway as cisco.com, enter vg200-1.cisco.com in this field.
Description	Enter a description that clarifies the purpose of the device.
Cisco CallManager Group	From the drop-down list box, choose a Cisco CallManager redundancy group. A Cisco CallManager redundancy group includes a prioritized list of up to three Cisco CallManagers. The first Cisco CallManager in the list serves as the primary Cisco CallManager. If the primary Cisco CallManager is not available or fails, the gateway attempts to connect with the next Cisco CallManager in the list and so on.
Installed Voice Interface Cards Note You must specify the beginning port number for some VICs. For example, if the VIC in Subunit 0 begins at 0 and has two ports (0 and 1), then the VIC in Subunit 1 must begin at a port number greater than 1 and have two ports (2 and 3 or 4 and 5). Note The correct number of slots displays for each model of MGCP gateway. (The VG200 gateway has only one slot.)
Module in Slot 0 Module in Slot 1 Module in Slot 2 Module in Slot 3 (and so on)	For each available slot on the chosen MGCP gateway, choose the type of module installed; for example: •NM-1V—Has one voice interface card (VIC) in Subunit 0 for FXS or FXO. When you use the VIC-2BRI-S/T-TE card with a NM-1V module, you can make two calls, because the second BRI port is shut down. •NM-2V—Has two VICs, one in Subunit 0 and one in Subunit 1 for either FXS or FXO. When you use the VIC-2BRI-S/T-TE card with a NM-2V module, you can make four calls. If another VIC is in the second slot of the NM-2V, the second port on the VIC-2BRI-S/T-TE gets shut down. •NM-HDV—Has one VIC in Subunit 0 for either T1-CAS or T1-PRI, or E1-PRI. •NM-HDA—Has three VICs, one in Subunit 0, one in Subunit 1, and one in Subunit 2. •VWIC-SLOT—Has a slot for any of the following modules: VIC (FXS or FXO), T1-CAS, T1-PRI, or E1-PRI. •AIM-VOICE-30—Has two VICs, one in Subunit 0 and one in Subunit 1 for T1-CAS, T1-PRI, or E1-PRI. •WS-X6600-24FXS—Has 24 FXS ports. •WS-X6600-6T1—Has 6 ports for T1 PRI or CAS. •WS-X6600-6E1—Has 6 ports for E1 PRI. •WS-SVC-CMM-MS—Has 2 port adapters, one for a T1 interface and one for an E1 interface for Europe and other countries. •None—Has no network modules installed.

Description	This display-only field contains a string that is generated by Cisco CallManager that uniquely identifies the analog MGCP description. For example: AALN/S0/SU1/1@domain.com You can edit this field.
Device Pool	From the drop-down list box, choose the appropriate device pool. The device pool specifies a collection of properties for this device including CallManager Group, Date/Time Group, Region, and Calling Search Space for auto registration of devices.
Call Classification	For FXO gateways, this parameter determines whether an incoming call that is using this gateway is considered off the network (OffNet) or on the network (OnNet). When the Call Classification field is configured as Use System Default, the setting of the Cisco CallManager clusterwide service parameter, Call Classification, determines whether the gateway is OnNet or OffNet. This field provides an OnNet or OffNet alerting tone when the call is OnNet or OffNet, respectively.
Calling Search Space	From the drop-down list, choose the appropriate calling search space. A calling search space comprises a collection of route partitions that are searched to determine how a collected (originating) number should be routed. You can configure the number of calling search spaces that display in this drop-down list box by using the Max List Box Items enterprise parameter. If more calling search spaces exist than the Max List Box Items enterprise parameter specifies, the ellipsis button (...) displays next to the drop-down list box. Click the ... button to display the Select Calling Search Space window. Enter a partial calling search space name in the List items where Name contains field. Click the desired calling search space name in the list of calling search spaces that displays in the Select item to use box and click OK. Note To set the maximum list box items, choose System > Enterprise Parameters and choose CCMAdmin Parameters.
AAR Calling Search Space	Choose the appropriate calling search space for the device to use when it performs automated alternate routing (AAR). The AAR calling search space specifies the collection of route partitions that are searched to determine how to route a collected (originating) number that is otherwise blocked due to insufficient bandwidth.
Media Resource Group List	This list provides a prioritized grouping of media resource groups. An application chooses the required media resource, such as a Music On Hold server, from among the available media resources according to the priority order that is defined in a Media Resource List.
Network Audio Hold Source	This audio source plays when the network initiates a hold action.
Location	Choose the appropriate location for this device. The location specifies the total bandwidth that is available for calls to and from this location. A location setting of None means that the locations feature does not keep track of the bandwidth that this device consumes.
AAR Group	Choose the automated alternate routing (AAR) group for this device. The AAR group provides the prefix digits that are used to route calls that are otherwise blocked due to insufficient bandwidth. An AAR group setting of None specifies that no rerouting of blocked calls will be attempted.
Network Locale	From the drop-down list box, choose the locale that is associated with the gateway. The network locale identifies a set of detailed information to support the hardware in a specific location. The network locale contains a definition of the tones and cadences that the device uses in a specific geographic area. Note Choose only a network locale that is already installed and supported by the associated devices. The list contains all available network locales for this setting, but not all are necessarily installed. If the device is associated with a network locale that it does not support in the firmware, the device will fail to come up.

Table 56-7 lists configuration settings for H.323 gateways.

Table 56-7 H.323 Gateway Configuration Settings 

Field	Description
Device Information
Device Name	Enter a unique name that Cisco CallManager uses to identify the device. Use either the IP address or the host name as the device name.
Description	Enter a description that clarifies the purpose of the device.
Device Pool	From the drop-down list box, choose the appropriate device pool. The device pool specifies a collection of properties for this device including CallManager Group, Date/Time Group, Region, and Calling Search Space for auto-registration of devices.
Call Classification	This parameter determines whether an incoming call that is using this gateway is considered off the network (OffNet) or on the network (OnNet). When the Call Classification field is configured as Use System Default, the setting of the Cisco CallManager clusterwide service parameter, Call Classification, determines whether the gateway is OnNet or OffNet. This field provides an OnNet or OffNet alerting tone when the call is OnNet or OffNet, respectively.
Media Resource Group List	This list provides a prioritized grouping of media resource groups. An application chooses the required media resource, such as a Music On Hold server, from among the available media resources according to the priority order that a Media Resource Group List defines.
Location	Choose the appropriate location for this device. The location specifies the total bandwidth that is available for calls to and from this location. A location setting of None means that the locations feature does not keep track of the bandwidth that this device consumes.
AAR Group	Choose the automated alternate routing (AAR) group for this device. The AAR group provides the prefix digits that are used to route calls that are otherwise blocked due to insufficient bandwidth. An AAR group setting of None specifies that no rerouting of blocked calls will be attempted.
Tunneled Protocol	Choose the QSIG option if you want to use H.323 gateways to transport (tunnel) non-H.323 protocol information in H.323 signaling messages from Cisco CallManager to other Annex M.1-compliant H.323 PINXs. QSIG tunneling supports the following features: Call Completion, Call Diversion, Call Transfer, Identification Services, Message Waiting Indication, and Path Replacement. Note Refer to the Cisco CallManager Compatibility Matrix for information about Annex M.1 feature compatibility with third-party vendor(s).
Signaling Port	This field applies only to H.323 devices. The value designates the H.225 signaling port that this device uses. Default value specifies 1720. Valid values include 1 through 65535.
Media Termination Point Required	If you want a Media Termination Point to implement features that H.323 does not support (such as hold and transfer), check the check box. Use this check box only for H.323 clients and H.323 devices that do not support the H.245 Empty Capabilities Set message. If you check this box to require an MTP and this device becomes the endpoint of a video call, the call operates as audio only.
Retry Video Call as Audio	This check box applies only to video endpoints that receive a call. By default, the system checks this check box to specify that this device should immediately retry a video call as an audio call (if it cannot connect as a video call) prior to sending the call to call control for rerouting. If you uncheck this check box, a video call that fails to connect as video does not try to establish as an audio call. The call then fails to call control. Call control reroutes the call within the route/hunt list. If Automatic Alternate Routing (AAR) is configured and enabled, call control also reroutes the call between route/hunt lists.
Wait for Far End H.245 Terminal Capability Set	This field applies only to H.323 devices. By default, the system checks this check box to specify that Cisco CallManager needs to receive the far-end H.245 Terminal Capability Set before it sends its H.245 Terminal Capability Set. Unchecking this check box specifies that Cisco CallManager should initiate capabilities exchange. Note Uncheck this check box to allow calls through H.320 gateways for ISDN calls to and from other H.323 and H.320 endpoints.
Path Replacement Support	This check box displays if you choose the QSIG option from the Tunneled Protocol drop-down list box. This setting works with QSIG tunneling (Annex M.1) to ensure that non-H.323 information gets sent on the leg of the call that uses path replacement. Note The default setting leaves the check box unchecked. When you choose the QSIG Tunneled Protocol option, the system automatically checks the check box.
Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) Information
MLPP Domain (e.g., "0000FF")	Enter a hexadecimal value between 0 and FFFFFF for the MLPP domain that is associated with this device. If you leave this field blank, this device inherits its MLPP domain from the value that is set for the device's device pool.

Cisco VG248 Gateway Configuration Settings

Table 56-9 lists configuration settings for the Cisco VG248 Gateways.

Table 56-9 Cisco VG248 Gateway Configuration Settings 

Field	Description
MAC Address	Enter the last 10 digits of the Media Access Control (MAC) address for the Cisco VG248. Only one MAC address exists for the Cisco  VG248 Analog Phone Gateway, but Cisco CallManager requires unique MAC addresses for all devices. When only 10 digits of the MAC address are entered, Cisco CallManager can use the MAC address for the gateway and append additional information to it to create the MAC addresses for the VGC phones. The conversion of the MAC address for each device occurs by adding the two-digit port number to the end of the MAC address (to the right of the number) and adding VGC at the beginning of the MAC address. EXAMPLE MAC Address for the Cisco VG248 is 0039A44218 the MAC address for registered port 12 in Cisco CallManager is VGC0039A4421812
Description	Cisco CallManager automatically provides this information by adding VGCGW immediately in front of the MAC address.
Load Information	Enter the firmware version for the Cisco VG248 that is being configured; otherwise, leave blank to use the default.
Installed Ports
48 PORTS	From the list of endpoint identifiers, choose one of the ports to configure the VGC_Phone ports.
Product Specific Configuration

Cisco IOS SCCP Gateway Configuration Settings

Table 56-10 lists configuration settings for the Cisco IOS SCCP gateways.

Table 56-10 Cisco IOS SCCP Gateway Configuration Settings 

Field	Description
MAC Address (last 10 Characters)	Enter the last 10 digits of the Media Access Control (MAC) address for the gateway. Use the MAC address of the interface that the sccp local IOS command specifies on the gateway. Valid characters include the digits 0 through 9 and the uppercase characters A through F. The conversion of the MAC address for each device occurs by adding the three-digit mapping of the slot/subunit/port to the end of the MAC address (to the right of the number). EXAMPLE MAC Address for the gateway is 0006D7E5C7 The MAC address in Cisco CallManager is 0006D7E5C7281 where 281 is the three-digit mapping of the slot/subunit/port. The values 2,8 and 1 can be hex digits and each do not necessarily correspond to slot, subunit and port values. The system inserts the following two-character strings before the MAC address to indicate the phone device types: •BR—BRI phone •AN—Analog phone The system also inserts SKIGW for the gateway name.
Description	Cisco CallManager automatically provides this information by adding SKIGW immediately in front of the MAC address. You can override the description.
Cisco CallManager Group	From the drop-down list box, choose a Cisco CallManager redundancy group. A Cisco CallManager redundancy group includes a prioritized list of up to three Cisco CallManagers. The first Cisco CallManager in the list serves as the primary Cisco CallManager. If the primary Cisco CallManager is not available or fails, the gateway attempts to connect with the next Cisco CallManager in the list, and so on.
Installed Voice Interface Cards Note You must specify the beginning port number for some VICs. For example, if the VIC in Subunit 0 begins at 0 and has two ports (0 and 1); then, the VIC in Subunit 1 must begin at a port number greater than 1 and have two ports (2 and 3 or 4 and 5). Note The correct number of slots displays for each model of SCCP gateway.
Module in Slot 0 Module in Slot 1 Module in Slot 2 Module in Slot 3 (and so on)	For each available slot on the chosen SCCP gateway, choose the type of module that is installed. The following modules are supported. Network Modules (with VIC slots): •NM-2V—Has two VICs, one in Subunit 0 and one in Subunit 1 for FXS-SCCP. •NM-HD-2V—Has two VIC slots, one in Subunit 0 and one in Subunit 1 for FXS-SCCP or for BRI-NT/TE-SCCP. •NM-HD-2VE—Has two VIC slots, one in Subunit 0 and one in Subunit 1 for FXS-SCCP or for BRI-NT/TE-SCCP Network Modules (no VIC slots): •NM-HDA-4FXS—has 4 FXS directly without VIC and can be extended by up to two expansion modules EM-HDA-8FXS to support 16 FXS ports. •EM-HDA-8FXS—expansion module for the NM-HDA-4FXS Voice Interface Cards: •VIC-2FXS •VIC-4FXS •VIC2-2FXS •VIC2-2BRI-NT/TE
	At the slot level, there are four options. •NM-2V—2 subunits options VIC-2FXS-SCCP •NM-HD-2V— 2 subunits options VIC-4FXS-SCCP, VIC2-2FXS-SCCP, VIC2-2BRI-NT/TE-SCCP •NM-HD-2VE—2 subunits options VIC-4FXS-SCCP, VIC2-2FXS-SCCP, VIC2-2BRI-NT/TE-SCCP •NM-HDA—3 subunits options NM-HDA-4FXS-SCCP, EM-8FXS-EM0-SCCP, EM-8FXS-EM1-SCCP. In NM-HDA, these are not true VICs, The VIC2-2BRI-NT/TE is the only VIC for BRI SCCP phones. Vg224 GW is different from all others The following option supports only one slot: •ANALOG—1 subunit option 24FXS-SCCP (supports 24 FXS ports) The option None means there is no network modules installed.

Modifying Gateways and Ports

Using Cisco CallManager, you perform the following tasks identically regardless of the gateway type:

•Using Dependency Records

•Deleting Gateways

•Resetting and Restarting Gateways

•Updating Gateways and Ports

Using Dependency Records

Gateways and ports use a variety of configuration information such as partitions, device pools, and directory numbers. Before updating or deleting gateways or ports, you can find configuration information about that gateway and port by using the Dependency Records link. For more information about this link, see the "Dependency Records" appendix.

Deleting Gateways

Complete the following steps to delete a gateway from Cisco CallManager.

Before You Begin

If you try to delete a gateway that a route group is using, Cisco CallManager displays a message.To find out which route groups are using the gateway, click the Dependency Records link from the Gateway Configuration window. If the dependency records are not enabled for the system, the dependency records summary window displays a message. For more information about dependency records, see the "Accessing Dependency Records" section on page A-3. Before deleting a gateway that is currently in use, you must perform either or both of the following tasks:

•Assign a different gateway to any route groups that are using the gateway that you want to delete. See the "Adding Devices to a Route Group" section.

•Delete the route groups that are using the gateway that you want to delete. See the "Deleting a Route Group" section.

Procedure

Step 1 Choose Device > Gateway.

The Find and List Gateways window displays.

Step 2 To locate a specific gateway, enter search criteria.

Step 3 Click Find.

A list of discovered gateways that matches your search criteria displays.

Step 4 Check the check box next to the gateway that you want to delete.

Step 5 Click Delete Selected.

A message displays that states that you cannot undo this action.
