CISCO

1. Simulate a Call

To simulate a call and look the route that the call is taking, you can use the CSIM command and then
check in the nextone for the call CDR

Command:

csim start <number pattern>

Use:

1+AC+Phone Number for US.

011+CC+AC+Phone Number for other international calls.

National call should be simulated as international calls.

Example:

[Link]#
[Link]#csim start 0115114212002
csim: called number = 0115114212002, loop count = 1 ping count = 0
.
csim: loop = 1, failed = 0
csim: call attempted = 1, setup failed = 0, tone failed = 1

[Link]#
[Link]#csim start 15146936415
csim: called number = 15146936415, loop count = 1 ping count = 0

csim: loop = 1, failed = 1

csim: call attempted = 1, setup failed = 1, tone failed = 0

[Link]#

2. Verify a call

If you know the origination and/or destination GW, you could check if the call is reaching this GW with
the comman

show call {active | history} voice brief

the active option show the call that are in progress at this moment and the history parameter show
the call that are finished.

Example :

[Link]#show call active voice brief

Each call has 2 parts, VOIP and POTS, which are identify by a CALL ID, in the previus example, the
first to register belong to the same call, and his CALL ID is 3643.
Example:

3643 : -463938778hs.1 +0 pid:4 Answer 5145269249 active

IP [Link]:17120 rtt:7ms pl:608000/23725ms lost:0/8/0
delay:80/60/110ms g729r8

Other parameters in this call are:

Duration : 00:21:44
TX/RX packets: tx:63935/1312580 rx:63776/1275520
Codec : g729r8
Destination ip: [Link]

The Duration parameter show the time of the call duration, and let us find call without a normal
duration. The TX/RX packet show the number of packets sending and receiving in the communication;
also in the case of one way audio or a high packet lost connection this parameter remains with any or
low variation. The codec show what is the compression used in the call. And the destination IP show
where the call is sending to.

If we selected the the history option, we also get the information of the disconnection cause

Example:

[Link]#sh call history voice brief

In that cases we got normal call clearing as the disconnect cause and the number 16, which is the
ISDN code for this cause.

The history option only shows the last calls, and depends of the amount of traffic in the GW.

3. E1 status

The command show controllers E1/T1; show the status of the E1/T1 and if this is up or down.

In this case the T1 3/0 is down and the rest are up.

Also, this command show us the configuration for the E1/T1; framing,coding and clock source.

4. ISDN status

The command: show isdn status, give us information about the layer 1,2,3 of the ISDN. The layer 1 is
the physical connection to the port if this is non active means, that a physical cable should be
reviewed.

The layer 2 is the data layer, show if the framing and coding is the appropriate for the E1/T1
configuration.

The layer 3 show the calls that are in progress for that E1/T1

Example

[Link]#sh isdn status

Global ISDN Switchtype = primary-dms100
ISDN Serial3/0:23 interface
dsl 0, interface ISDN Switchtype = primary-ni
Layer 1 Status:
DEACTIVATED
Layer 2 Status:
TEI = 0, Ces = 1, SAPI = 0, State = TEI_ASSIGNED
Layer 3 Status:
0 Active Layer 3 Call(s)
Active dsl 0 CCBs = 0
The Free Channel Mask: 0x00000000
Number of L2 Discards = 0, L2 Session ID = 103
 ISDN Serial3/1:23 interface
dsl 1, interface ISDN Switchtype = primary-ni
Layer 1 Status:
ACTIVE
Layer 2 Status:
TEI = 0, Ces = 1, SAPI = 0, State =
MULTIPLE_FRAME_ESTABLISHED
Layer 3 Status:
1 Active Layer 3 Call(s)
CCB:callid=FA15, sapi=0, ces=0, B-chan=4, calltype=VOICE
CCB:callid=FA30, sapi=0, ces=0, B-chan=1, calltype=VOICE
Active dsl 1 CCBs = 2
The Free Channel Mask: 0x807FFFF6
Number of L2 Discards = 0, L2 Session ID = 3
ISDN Serial3/2:23 interface
dsl 2, interface ISDN Switchtype = primary-dms100 : Primary D
channel of nfas group 1
Layer 1 Status:
ACTIVE
Layer 2 Status:
TEI = 0, Ces = 1, SAPI = 0, State =
MULTIPLE_FRAME_ESTABLISHED
Layer 3 Status:
0 Active Layer 3 Call(s)
Active dsl 2 CCBs = 0
The Free Channel Mask: 0x807FFFFF
Number of L2 Discards = 0, L2 Session ID = 92
ISDN Serial3/3:23 interface
dsl 3, interface ISDN Switchtype = primary-dms100 : Group
member of nfas group 1
Layer 1 Status:
ACTIVE
Layer 2 Status: Not Applicable
Layer 3 Status:
0 Active Layer 3 Call(s)
Active dsl 3 CCBs = 0
The Free Channel Mask: 0x80FFFFFF
Total Allocated ISDN CCBs = 2

In this example the Layer 1 for the Serial 3/0:23 is show as DEACTIVATED which means that no
fisical signal for this port.

5. ISDN service

The command show isdn service show wich channels have calls and which are free.

Example:

[Link]#show isdn service
