Introduction
Interoperability between the old world TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) networks and the new world
packet networks is an essential part of the technology adoption life cycle for packet networks. This
release of the Cisco PGW 2200 PSTN Gateway extends its capability to provide the bridge between the

Platform Support
legacy public switched telephone network (PSTN) and next-generation packet networks - supporting
centralized call control and intelligent routing for both TDM-based interfaces (SS7, PRI, QSIG, and
DPNSS endpoints) and IP-based interfaces (SIP and H.323 endpoints).
The Cisco PGW 2200 provides a consistent and unified interconnection that supports Cisco’s Voice
infrastructure and Applications (VIA) applications (Dial and Voice transit), Cisco’s Business Voice
Services applications (Hosted or Managed IP Telephony), and Cisco’s Broadband Residential Voice
applications (ETTx). The PGW 2200 allows service providers to deploy and operate multiple network
solutions while maintaining a stable interconnection to the PSTN.

Software Required
For a list of required software, see Chapter 1 of the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release
9 Installation and Configuration Guide.
Required Swap Space
For the Cisco MGC software, you need to partition 4 GB of swap space. Setting swap space at
installation is recommended; however, you can change swap space at a later date by adding a swap file
or repartitioning the swap space using the format menu (for example, reassigning how many cylinders
are in each partition). The swap space requirement is determined by the amount of traffic. As traffic
increases, you should use the top command in UNIX to see how much swap space is being used; you
should then decide if more is needed. You can use the MML command rtrv-ne-health to obtain
information from the UNIX top from within MML.
Host Hardware Requirements
Host Minimum Server Requirements
See the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Hardware Installation Guide for the host minimum hardware
requirements. Before using the minimum hardware configuration, consult with your Cisco representative
to determine the hardware that will give you the best performance results based on your network
configuration, proposed traffic, and desired processing power.

Installing and Upgrading the Software
Warning
Before upgrading from a current version of Software Release 9 to a higher level, you must verify
software release version compatibility by contacting Cisco TAC (see Obtaining Documentation and
Submitting a Service Request, page 123) or your Cisco account representative. Software release
version incompatibility may cause service disruption.
If you are installing software Release 9.4(1) for the first time, see the Cisco Media Gateway Controller
Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide for instructions.
Note
In the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide,
observe the following change: In the “Configuring SNMP Support Resources” sections, SNMP MIB
measurements are valid only on the active node. They are not replicated to the standby node.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)

OL-3401-01
Installation Notes
Caution
When upgrading a redundant system, verify that the pom.dataSync parameter (located in
/opt/CiscoMGC/etc/XECfgParm.dat) is set to false to maintain calls and preserve your configuration.
Caution
No validation is performed on the IDs you enter. If you enter an invalid ID, the utilities package does not
add any accounts.
Tip
If you have trouble installing the utilities package, make sure that you do not still have a transpath group
in your group file (located in /etc).
Before installing the 9.4(1) software, you must remove all packages and remnants of previous releases
of Media Gateway Controller, VSC, or SC2200 software, including drivers and utilities, because of
structural changes within the executables, libraries, operating system, and packaging. You should start
with a fresh system.
Software Patches
Patches are located in the following directory:
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/mgc-941
The protocol packaging has been improved so that you need only load and install protocols that you
need. Previously, the entire protocol suite was packaged and delivered together. With the improved
packaging protocol:
•
The standard installation script allows you to specify which protocol set(s) are required on your
platform.
•
Only packages containing the desired protocols are installed as part of the standard installation.
The same number of packages available with the initial release still exists; however, they have a new
nomenclature that is required to support patching later in the release life cycle and you have the option
to install only the packages containing required protocols.
The protocol packages are labeled CSCOnnvvv:
nn—indicates the specific protocols you need for your environment
vvv—indicates the version level of the patch
For example, at the time of the release you are given protocol patch CSCO01000.pkg. The 01 indicates
a specific protocol applicable to your environment; 000 indicates the revision level. The next time a set
of protocol patches are built, the 000 is incremented by 1 (001).
Note
You must always install the 00 protocol package when upgrading a protocol patch level. If the 00
protocol package is not installed, the upgrade attempt fails. The Protocol file missing alarm displays.
Use the patch script (new shell script provided with the standard installation) located in your /opt/SW
directory (created during the initial base software installation) to confirm which patch packages you
need to install (using the patch status command), and then copy these packages into your local directory
(/opt/SW)from the release directory where you can use the script to install the patches.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
Software Patches

Installation Notes
The installation script requires one of the following options:
•
Option 1—patch status retrieves the status of the system. Use this option to determine which set of
protocol packages are currently installed on your system. The installed protocol packages are
required (must be downloaded) to update the software. The exception is if you need a new protocol
that was not previously delivered. In this case, you need to download an extra package (the package
that the new protocol is delivered in).
•
Option 2—patch all automatically searches the local directory (/opt/SW) and the installed system
to determine the most recent available patch and automatically updates the system with that patch
level. This applies to protocol and system patches. All uninstall and install activities are handled by
the script. The command for this is:patch all. The all command does not require a second argument.
•
Option 3—patch system [latest |<alternate patch number>] specifies the exact patch level for
system patches you choose to install on the system. You can specify any available patch level to be
installed. All uninstall and install activities are handled by this script. This option requires one of
the following arguments:
– latest —installs the most recently downloaded patch. This argument should be used with the
system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
– <number> —indicates the patch number <vvv> that you want to install. This argument should
be used with the system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
•
Option 4—patch protocol [latest |<alternate patch number>] specifies the exact patch level for
protocol patches you choose to install on the system. You can specify any available patch level to
be installed. All uninstall and install activities are handled by this script. This option requires one
of the following arguments:
– latest —installs the most recently downloaded patch. This argument should be used with the
system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
– <number> —indicates the patch number <vvv> that you want to install. This argument should
be used with the system and protocol commands used in options 3 and 4.
The following is sample output of option 2, patch all which automatically searches the local directory
and the installed system to determine the most recent available patch located in /opt/SW (protocol and
system) and automatically updates the system with that patch level.

System Level Equivalency
Table 4 provides the system level equivalency for each protocol patch. For example, after installing
CSCOnn003, release 9.4(1) is equivalent to release 9.3(2) patch level CSCOnn014 (contains all patches
and features included in release 9.3(2) up to patch CSCOnn014).
Note
The equivalency level between releases assists you in determining when fixes in earlier releases have
been propagated into the target release. Automatic propagation of issues is only supported for later
releases. Automatic backward propagation of issues is not supported.

If BAMS is used to process billing data from the PGW, you must apply the BAMS patch that
contains the resolution for caveat number CSCed37233 (on BAMS) before applying patch
CSCOnn016 on the PGW. If the BAMS patch is not available, use the following workaround:
Step 1
Start a provisioning session from an active configuration on each BAMS node.
Step 2
Add tags 4046 and 4047 to the SKIPCDE table.

CSCuk47255—a new trunk group property (SdpXmitToH323Trigger) has been created. This
property affects rerouting scenarios.
Property name: SdpXmitToH323Trigger
Purpose: Indicates the point in a call when the PGW sends SDP from terminating Leg (PSTN/PBX
Side) to HSI (Originating Leg). The property is applied on Terminating TrunkGroup.
Valid values: 0 (Terminating Seizure), 1 (Address Complete), 2 (Alerting), 3 (Answer)
Default Property Value: 0
Note
Property values 2 and 3 are for future enhancements. At this time, only values 0 and 1 are supported. If
you provision a property to 2 or 3, it is ignored and the default value(0) is used.

OL-3401-01
New Features in This Release
New Features in This Release
Support for GTD and Derived FCI/BCI Interworking on HK and ANSI 92
This feature (CSCsa84411) introduces GTD to the HK and ANSI 92 protocol variants and ports the
Derived FCI/BCI Interworking feature to the same protocols and ANSI to support network expansion
into HK, UK, and the US.
Note
This feature was introduced in patch CSCOnn046.
Support for ITP Signaling GW with Distributed MTP3
This feature (CSCeg80870) enables the PGW 2200 to support the following configurations:
Note
•
Mated pair of ITPs with a single OPC in front of a single PGW node with the same OPC (Distributed
MTP3)
•
Mated pair of ITPs with a single OPC in front of multiple PGW nodes with the same OPC (Point
Code Consolidation)
This feature was introduced in patch CSCOgs038.
Q767_SINGAPORE Needs to Support GTD FDC for CGN and CPC
This feature (CSCef74928) implements the following:
Note
•
The PGW now uses the GTD FDC parameter for out-of-range fields for the CPC and CGN
parameters in Q767_SINGAPORE.
•
The PGW now implements a GTD override for CAI.loc (cause location) to override the NI2->SS7
mapping.
This feature was introduced in patch CSCOnn038.
CIC Availability Measurement CDB
This feature (CSCed56953) introduces a new CDB, SS7 CIC Availability CDB 1071, support more
accurate tracking of the number of available CICS on gateways and trunk groups by BAMS release 3.20.
Note
This feature was introduced in patch CSCOgs030.

New Features in This Release
Netra 240 and Netra 440 Platform Introduction for MGC Host
This feature (CSCee30532) introduces the Netra 240 and Netra 440. This feature offers:
Note
•
Upgrade to new 16.1.0.23 CIAgent
•
New ALOM support in alarm manager
This feature was introduced in patch CSCOgs028.
New Zealand ISUP OLM Support
This feature (CSCee59868) adds support in New Zealand ISUP for the Overload (OLM) parameter (national
parameter used when call processing capacity on a switch exceeds a certain value). Affected circuits are
made unavailable to traffic for a period of two minutes. This feature does not support checkpointing to
the Standby and does not contain MML support for display of circuit stats via rtrv-tc or rtrv-cic.
Note
This feature is required by voice carriers that need to interconnect with the PTT.
Note
This feature was introduced in the CSCOnn035/CSCOgs029 patch combination.
GTD and FCI/BCI support for ETSI V2 and ANSI ISUP
This feature (CSCee35463) introduces GTD to the ETSI V2 and ports the Derived FCI/BCI Interworking
feature to the same protocols and ANSI.
Note
This feature was introduced in the CSCOnn032/CSCOgs027 patch combination.
M3UA SUA Critical Alarms
M3UA SUA critical alarms (CSCec79588) provides a change in behavior and new XECfgParm.dat
parameter. The following alarms are critical:
Table 7
Critical Alarms
Alarm
Description
239
All C7 IP Links Fail
384
All M3UA Assoc Fail
385
All SUA Assoc Fail
An XECfgParm.dat parameter has been added to enable/disable the generation of the following alarms:
•
all C7 IP Links Fail
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
94
OL-3401-01
New Features in This Release
•
all M3UA Assoc Fail
•
all SUA Assoc Fail
By default, the critical alarms are NOT generated (property value of false). The property can be modified
to true, to generate the alarms and invoke a failover.
Note
For geographically separated PGWs, the recommendation is to set the property to TRUE (to generate
alarms).
If the original behavior is desired, you must manually edit the following XECfgParm.dat parameter:
*.AllLinksFailCausesFailover = true
or upgrade to release 9.5(2).
Note
If the AllLinksFailCausesFailover parameter is set to true, your system will switchover if all IP links to
the SLTs in a protocol family are down. For example, you have 1 ANSI link and 3 ITU links, your system
will failover if the 3 ITU links to the SLTs go down or if the 1 ANSI link to the SLT goes down.
Support for New Zealand ISUP Transparency
This feature (CSCed15844) adds support for the New Zealand ISUP transparency.
Note
This feature was introduced in the CSCOnn019/CSCOgs016 patch combination.
Austrian ISUP Enhancements
This feature (CSCed45778) adds an ISUP (to the PGW 2200) that contains enhancements to allow H.323
to ISDN calls (use of the Forward Call Indicator (FCI) in the ISUP message). The configurable ISUP
timer (T9) has been modified. Valid values are 1–30 minutes, with a default of 2 minutes.
Note
New ISUP variant: ISUPV2_AUSTRAIN_C2
Dual-VLAN Improved SIP Failover
This feature (CSCea10379) improves the method used for failover strategy for SIP on the PGW 2200.
The original failover strategy relied on a SIP element to detect a PGW 2200 failover by the absence of
any SIP responses from the PGW 2200 after a failover. The SIP device gets the IP address of the newly
active PGW 2200 host from a DNS SRV query or an internal cache of a previous query.
The new failover strategy uses two virtual IP addresses for SIP signaling, one for each VLAN. Upon a
failover, the newly active host activates the virtual SIP IP addresses and the previously active host
deactivates the SIP Virtual IP addresses.

Support added to EISUP and GTD for above parameters and messages
•
Support added for new cause codes
•
The Pre-release message is not supported (not required)
Note
There are no changes to circuit related procedures from the base ANSI 1995.
Note
Since number portability related changes are already supported by the ANSI implementation (ANSI
1995) in PGW, no changes have been made to those parameters/procedures.
The following two new mdl files were created for ANSI 2000:
Note
•
ansiSS7_2k.mdl
•
ansiSS7_2k_type.mdl
This feature was propagated from release 9.3(2).
New Cause Code for Call Re-Attempts
This feature (CSCeb19790) determines how calls are released from the PGW when the following
scenarios occur:
•
Glare on non-control circuit
•
Circuit Block after IAM before ACM
•
Circuit Reset after IAM before ACM
•
COT failure
The following entry must be manually added to the configurable parameter section of XECfgParm.dat
using a UNIX editor (such as vi):
*.GlareReattemptCauseValue=44
Valid values are 1–127; the default value is 44.
Note
This feature is for nailed solutions only.
Note
This feature was introduced in the CSCOnn009/CSCOgs009 patch combination. This feature was
propagated from release 9.3(2).
SIP Services Update
This feature (CSCea33921) updates the following:
•
session timer–used as a fallback mechanism to clean up hung calls.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
New Cause Code for Call Re-Attempts
97
New Features in This Release
Note
•
BYE/Also to REFER–the REFER method improves the BYE/Also concept of the expired
draft-ietf-sip-cc-01by disassociating transfers from the processing of BYE. The PGW 2200 only
supports BYE/Also at this time.
•
ISUP-SIP cause code mapping– the PGW 2200 SIP implementation has been updated to follow
chapter 7 and 8 of the ISUP to SIP Mapping RFC (RFC 3398). This brings the PGW 2200 up to
the current state in cause mapping.
•
The PGW 2200 SIP implementation of the Diversion Header supports mapping of the privacy tag to
the redirection number in outgoing signaling messages, specifically in the outgoing ISUP IAM
message. The privacy token has the fields full and off (privacy=[full|off]).
•
At present, the PGW 2200 SIP implementation always derives the calling party number from the
username field of From header. If the P-Asserted-Identity header or Remote-Party-ID header is
present in an incoming SIP INVITE message, the username can be derived from those headers.
•
Current PGW SIP implementation sets the display-name field of the From/Contact headers to
Anonymous when the calling party number is unavailable. The PGW sets the display-name to
Anonymous only when the presentation is restricted from the ISUP side of the call. The PGW sets
the display-name to Unknown when calling party number is not available from the other half of the
call.
•
The SIP unsolicited notify method is used to transport subscribed event notification. The current
implementation of Unsolicited Notify on the PGW 2200 has been enhanced to support transporting
of Message Waiting Indicator strings.
This feature was introduced in the CSCOnn009/CSCOgs009 patch combination.
DSP Statistics from MGCP Gateways in CDRs
This feature (CSCea19329) enables the PGW to collect DSP statistics from MGCP gateways at the end
of each call and populate the statistics in the PGW’s CDRs. This enhances the ability to provide more
real time analysis of voice quality issues in MGCP VoIP networks.
The following new CDR tags have been defined:
Table 8
New CDR Tags for the DSP Statistics from MGCP Gateways in CDRs feature
Tag Number
Tag Descriptor/Description
Affected CDB(s)
4098
Originating Leg DSP stats—(CDR_ORIG_DSP_STATS)–this tag is

using MGCP protocol and the Gateway is enabled to send DSP statistics to
the PGW.
1030,1040,1110
4099
Terminating Leg DSP stats–(CDR_TERM_DSP_STATS))–this tag is
populated if the originating/terminating endpoint is controlled by the PGW
using MGCP protocol and the Gateway is enabled to send DSP statistics to
the PGW.

National Forward Call Indicator
This feature was introduced in the CSCOnn006/CSCOgs006 patch combination. This feature was
propagated from release 9.3(2).
Multiple Carriers Per HSI
This feature (CSCdz89645) enables you to use a single HSI (or a pair of HSIs for redundancy) to route
calls to multiple HSI carriers.
•
Note
Note
The existing trunkgroup property BNationalPrefix (16-character string) is used as a tech-prefix and
is stored in Call Detail Record (CDR) tag 4014.
BNationalPrefix is case sensitive.
•
The EISUP trunkgroup that has a NULL value for the BNationalPrefix property is selected as the
incoming trunkgroup (it can be both the incoming and outgoing trunkgroup).
•
The tech-prefix capability is applied only when the PGW interconnects to the HSI through EISUP.
•
The existing SigPath property, H323AdjunctLink, must be provisioned against EISUP and set to 1
to indicate HSI connection and allow the tech-prefixing capability.
If H323AdjunctLink is set to 0, a PGW to PGW configuration will be assumed and the existing
BNationalPrefix functionality (NOA-BNationalPrefix feature) will apply.
•
If the NOA-BNationalPrefix feature is not used, there should be one and only one trunk group with
BNationalPrefix=NULL. If there are multiple trunk groups already provisioned, you must remove
them. This also applies to a PGW to HSI configurations.
•
If the NOA-BNationalPrefix feature over EISUP is used, you need a minimum of two trunkgroups;
at least one with BNationalPrefix set to your national prefix and another with
BNationalPrefix=NULL.
Note
Provision postprocessing checks to ensure that only one EISUP trunkgroup has a NULL value for the
BNationalPrefix property. If more than one EISUP trunkgroup has a NULL value for the
BNationalPrefix property, postprocessing fails.
Note
In release 9.5(1), the BTechPrefix property replaces the BNationalPrefix property used for this feature.
You must replace the property name when upgrading from release 9.4 to release 9.5.

New Features in This Release
For more information on this feature, see the Release Notes for Cisco H.323 Signaling Interface Release
2.20.
Global Screening Database Table
This feature (CSCuk37673) allows you to handle screening from a single database table instead of using
multiple copies of screening tables by constructing a global database with a customer group id (GLBL)
that can be searched from any dialplan.
Note
For existing customers (customers with existing screening entries), the file digitanalysis.dat must be
updated so that the engine acknowledges the new (GLBL.dialplan) dialplan file.
Note
The prov-export command has been modified to extract global screening data (if any exists) from the
TimesTen database after all dialplans are processed.
Global screening data is stored in the following files:
•
GLBL.awhite
•
GLBL.ablack
•
GLBLbwhite
•
GLBLbblack
Screening includes the following new values:
•
dw1 value 3—global whitelist screening
•
dw1 value 4—global blacklist screening
Note
These values indicate that the global database table is being used to process a screening request. The
customer group id submitted to TimesTen is GLBL regardless of the customer group id of the active
dialplan. These values are verified during provisioning validation.
Note
If the data word value indicates that global screening is used, then the current customer group id is
ignored and the request is submitted with the customer group id of GLBL.
IUA to NAS
This feature (CSCdy51850) provides provisioning changes to the PGW software in support of the new
IUA transport between the PGW and the NAS.
For more information on this feature, see the following documents:

86a008007e563.html
Note
This feature is only operational in the PGW signaling configuration.
Support for SIP Subscribe and Notify Methods
This feature (CSCdy26291) allows the PGW to support out-of-band DTMF signaling. It allows SIP user
agents that are not a party to the media of a call or session, to receive SIP event notifications when
signaled digits or other specific telephony-related events are detected. This is useful for applications that
monitor calls for a specific event (for example, a long pound, special sequence of digits, or a fax signal)
and then take an active role in the monitored calls.
The following new methods are supported:
•
SUBSCRIBE—used to request asynchronous notification of an event or set of events at a later time.
•
NOTIFY—used to notify a SIP node that an event requested by an earlier SUBSCRIBE method has
occurred.
•
Unsolicited NOTIFY—the Cisco Proprietary mechanism of sending the supported requested event
if it occurs.
The following new headers are supported:
•
Event Header—defines the event type being requested, supported, or sent.
•
Allow Header—optional, if present includes a list of tokens that indicate the event packages
supported by the client.
•
Subscription-State Header— indicates the status of the subscription.
Additional information
•
The new response code, 489 Bad Event, is supported.
•
Other existing methods, headers, and response codes have been enhanced to support this feature.
The following limitations exist for this feature:
•
The PGW acts only as a NOTIFIER of the telephone events.
•
All methods are supported after the ANSWER/CONNECT state.
•
The PGW that sends the DTMF digits needs to subscribe with the MGCP Gateway for the DTMF
digit. This occurs after receiving either a SUBSCRIBE message or Unsolicited NOTIFY response
message in 18x/200 message.
•
The MGCP Gateway does not support sending the duration for the telephony event.
•
In case of failover, the PGW continues the subscription for the duration of the call.

New Features in This Release
PGW Security Enhancements
This feature (CSCdx89335) provides secure communications channels between the PGW and external
computer systems. Currently these communications use the telnet and ftp programs. Upon
implementation of the Secure Shell (SSH), which allows secure telnet connections and ftp transfers, both
telnet and ftp are disabled (by default).
Note
Customers that do not use the secure interfaces will be allowed to re-enable telnet and/or ftp using scripts
provided with the package.
CDR Enhancements
This feature (CSCdy15286) adds the following new functions:
•
Creates new Call Detail Entries (TAGs) in PGW for both Ingress and Egress codec. Ingress codec
is the initial codec used for the call and the egress codec is the codec at the end of the call.
•
Extends BAMS to provide data in both the Extended ASCII and BT NICS Custom outputs.
•
Creates new Call Detail Entries (TAGs) in PGW for both Ingress and Egress IP Address.
•
Extends BAMS to provide data in both the Extended ASCII and BT NICS Custom outputs.

Redirecting Number Modification and Advanced A/B-Number Normalization
This feature (CSCdx73724) provides the ability to modify the Redirecting number and its NOA as a
result of any analysis phase (pre-analysis, a/b number analysis, cause analysis). Additionally, it delivers
the capability to perform number normalization (removal of European national or International prefix
digits) on all originating number parameters (CgPN, GN_CgPn, Redirecting Number, and OCN) and
also on the b-number before any analysis is started.
Pre-analysis has been enhanced to encompass a new stage that precedes all other stages, this initial stage
carries out NOA/NPI analysis against the CgPN and provides access to all pre-analysis results (this drove
the creation of a new set of NOA/NPI tables so that actions can be individually configured for both A
and B number NOA/NPI values).
Finally, an adjustment has been made to the function of the existing outgoing number formatting
properties so that they not only apply National/International/Country Code prefixes to the CgPN, but
also to the Originating Numbers (GN_CgPn, Redirecting Number, and OCN), if present.

New Features in This Release
Configurable NOA Mapping
This feature (CSCdy39349) allows country-specific NOAs to be defined in the PGW. The PGW 2200
can accept calls that use NOA values that are not explicitly defined in the protocol variant.
Note
With this feature configured, normal internal to line mapping is overridden. Protocol outputs might be
modified to a value other than expected with configurations elsewhere in the system.

M3UA/SUA to ITP
This feature (CSCdy51854) adds support on the PGW 2200 for M3UA and SUA protocols using SCTP
(SIGTRAN). This is an alternative to the existing RUDP backhaul protocol and enables the use of the
ITP as an SS7 Signaling Gateway in place of the existing SLT-based SS7 termination architecture.
Note
This feature can only be used for communication between Cisco MGCs and Cisco ITPs. For information

New Features in This Release
Support for SIP-T and SIP-GTD
This feature (CSCdy43669) allows the PGW to support the transmission of ISUP parameters through SIP
networks to allow end-to-end ISUP transparency, use of ISUP parameters within SIP networks and a
standards based alternative to E-ISUP for carrying MIME encoded binary ISUP messages within SIP.
SIP-GTD is used to pass specific ISUP parameters such as Calling Party Category (CPC) to allow an
element in the SIP cloud (i.e. SIP phone) to determine that a call is from a payphone, for example.
Note
SIP-T and SIP-GTD are both supported in call control mode.
Note
SIP-T support is for German ISUP only.
IOS Style MML Help
This feature (CSCdy63849) provides IOS-style help when entering commands. Help is provided for the
verbs, targets, and parameters of all MML commands.
IOS provides two types of help:
•
command help—a list of possible choices is provided based on what you enter. For example, if you
enter "set-" , then all of the commands starting with "set-" display. Command help is invoked by
entering a "?" on the command line.
•
command completion—an attempt is made to complete a command based on what you have entered
so far on the command line. For example, if you enter "set-ipl" and the only command starting with
"set-ipl" is "set-iplink", then the command is completed up to the "set-iplink". Command completion
is invoked by entering a "tab" on the command line.
Note
Previously, the question mark "?" was a valid character for some MML parameters, such as description.
With this feature, a "?" is no longer valid and will not be allowed in any parameter when using MML in
command line mode (not batch mode). Existing configurations that have a "?" in a parameter are not
affected because help is only invoked when using the command line.
Note
When a tab is entered, the default is to display help information and complete the command. However,
XECfgParm can be set to only complete the command.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
106
OL-3401-01
New Features in This Release
Help can be invoked at any point in a command. The help that is provided is dependent on the contents
of the command. The following is a list of the help provided at the various points in the command.
Table 10
Help Provided
Help Level
Help Provided
Verb
When help is invoked at the verb level, a list of verbs that matches your input
is provided. For example, if you do not enter anything, then a list of all the
verbs is provided. If you enter "set-", then a list of all the verbs starting with
"set-" are displayed. If there is only one verb that matches your input, then
the command is completed up to the target entry point. If there are multiple
matches, then the command is completed up to the most common point. If
no help can be provided based on your input, then an audible indication
(beep) is given and no help information displays.
Target
When help is invoked at the target level, a list of targets that matches your
input is provided. A target can be a keyword (such as dchan or iplnk) or can
be a specific object/component (such as link-1). If you do not enter any
portion of the target, then a list of all targets for that verb is provided. If you
enter a portion of the target, then a list of all the targets that match are
displayed. If there is only one target that matches your input, then the
command is completed up to the parameter list entry point. If there are
multiple matches, then the command is completed up to the most common
point. If no help can be provided based on your input, then an audible
indication (beep) is given and no help information displays.
Parameter Name
When help is invoked at the parameter name level a list of parameters that
match your input is provided. If you do not enter any portion of the
parameter name, then a list of all parameter names for that verb and target
are provided. If you enter a portion of the parameter name, then a list of all
parameters that match are displayed. The list of parameters will not contain
parameters that have already been entered for that command. If there is only
one parameter name that matches your input, then the command is completed
up to the parameter value entry point. If there are multiple matches, then the
command is completed up to the most common point. If no help can be
provided based on your input, then an audible indication (beep) is given and
no help information displays.
Parameter Value
When help is invoked at the parameter value level the help that is provided
depends on the type of value. For values that are number and strings, a
description of the parameter displays. For values that are enums or objects,
a list of values that match your input is provided. If you do not enter any
portion of the value, then a list of all the values displays. If there is only one
value that matches your input, then the value is completed up to the entry
point for the next parameter. If there are multiple matches, then the command
is completed up to the most common point. If no help can be provided based
on your input, then an audible indication (beep) is given and no help
information is displays.
There is a new XECfgParm that indicates whether enhanced help is provided when doing command
completion (tab). The following are valid values for this new parameter:
•
True—completes the command and displays a list of choices.
•
False—disables this feature; a list of choices is not displayed.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
IOS Style MML Help
107
New Features in This Release
The help library provides command help and command completion information based on what you enter
and the contents of an XML file. The format of the commands must be:
VERB <separator> TARGET <separator> PARAMLIST
•
verb—Must be a string. The separator between the VERB and TARGET must be a single character
and must be defined in the XML file.
•
target—Can be a keyword, such as DCHAN or IPLNK, or can be an object/component name such
as iplink-1. The separator between the TARGET and PARAMLIST must be a single character and
must be defined in the XML file.
•
paramlist—a list of zero or more parameters.
The following are examples of commands that follow the supported format:
prov-add:dchan:name=”dchan-1”, desc=”dchannel 1”, svc=”svc-1”
prov-rtrv:dchan:name=”dchan-1”
prov-rtrv:dchan:”all”
rtrv-iplnk:iplink-1
rtrv-ne – no target or parameters
prov-sta::srcver=”active”,dstver=”test”, confirm
Note
Validation is not performed on the contents of a command. As long as enough of the command is valid
so that help can be determined, then help can be returned.
Advanced Screening and Modification
This feature (CSCdx73731) introduces the ability to select Dial Plans based on the source IP address
(H.323 or SIP) and/or leading digits of the A-number. It also allows additional screening and
modification of the A-number (CLI) including the screening indicator (SI) and Presentation Indicator
(PI) and allows modification of the Presentation number and its SI and PI.
This allows you to set trust policies with regard to passing Calling Number or Connected Number over
a certain trunk group (new Trunk Group properties) by routing to specific dial plans based on the source
IP Address.
The selection of dial plans based on source IP address and/or leading digits can also be used for
Geographic routing from SIP or H.323 interfaces or for VPN private dial plans.
The following new tags have been introduced:
Table 11
New Tags for the Advanced Screening and Modification Feature

New Features in This Release
Malicious Call ID Transport in GTD
This feature (CSCdx42047) enables the recipient of a malicious call to trigger a record of the calling
party’s information which is forwarded to the appropriate Law Enforcement Agency (LEA).
Enhanced INAP Provisioning
This feature (CSCdx07280) provides the ability (within MML) to do simple provisioning of some
message sending (MS) parameters within the trigger.dat table (for SCCP GTT or SSN routing and allows
Service Key Value to be entered).
Note
The defaults for EMEA for SCCP values for routing should be set to be SSN.
The following parameters (within MS) can be provisioned:
•
F6 Service Key
•
F9 gtSSN
•
F15 SSN
•
F16gtFormat
Enhanced Dynamic Reconfiguration
This feature (CSCdx89339) improves the dynamic reconfiguration process to avoid overload conditions.
V110 and V120 Modem Support with MGCP
This feature (CSCdy15285) provides enhancements to the PGW 2200 for call control to identify V.110
and V.120 rate adapted ISDN calls and notify the media gateways via MGCP so they can handle them
appropriately.
Note
V.110 support requires IOS 12.3(2)T on AS5350/5400 and IOS 12.3(4)T on AS5850. V.120 support
requires IOS 12.3(4)T on AS5350/5400 and 5850.
HSI Empty Capability Set Invocation
This feature (CSCdz59915) enables the HSI to invoke an empty capability set (ECS) towards an H323
network. ECS is used to modify a media stream that is in the connected state. It is used to redirect media
from one endpoint to another.
This feature is required to support call transfers from a DPNSS or Q.SIG PBX when the transferee is on
a Cisco Call Manger connected via H.323 to the PGW 2200. The ECS Invocation from PGW 2200 to
Cisco Call Manger is used to “move” the RTP stream from the IP phone to a new port on the Trunking
Gateway.

Known Issues and Operational Recommendations
This section contains information about known issues and the corresponding workarounds in the
Cisco MGC software release 9.4(1).
Note
For more information about Cisco IOS issues and workarounds, see the Cisco IOS release notes for your
platform.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)

OL-3401-01
Known Issues and Operational Recommendations
User Part Availability Detection Limitation
According to both ITU Q704 (11.2.7.4) and ANSI GR246 (11.2.7.4), after receiving UPU with cause
code "inaccessible remote user" or "unknown", it is the responsibility of the User Part (the PGW) to
determine when the remote User Part is available again.
Due to a design limitation, the PGW only uses the "send test messages periodically" method to determine
when the remote User Part is available again; for ANSI it is CVT; for ITU it is UPT. All other messages
are ignored by the PGW until CVR (ANSI) or UPA (ITU) are received.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCsa62061.
PGW Should Support the Option of Sending Hardware Block Messages
A new XECfgParm.dat parameter engine .SendHardwareBlock has been added. Valid values are true
or false. If set to true, the PGW sends hardware oriented blocking messages for any blocks that originate
from the media gateways. If set to false, the PGW only sends maintenance oriented blocking messages
for all blocking cases.
Note
This parameter must be added manually (using a UNIX editor such as vi) on release 9.3 and 9.4 systems.
The di script automatically adds this parameter (if not already existing), to release 9.5 systems and
above.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCeg83496.
Link and Call States for New Object Not Synchronized to Standby After
prov-copy/prov-sync
When you provision and add new signaling links or new CICS using the PROV-CPY command, you must
reboot the system to synchronize the new objects in the active system to the standby. Not rebooting can
cause loss of calls after a switchover.
Upgrading to Release 9.6(1)
When upgrading to release 9.6(1), the Times Ten database is upgraded to version 5.0.x.
Upgrading From Releases 9.3, 9.4, and 9.5:
Before uninstalling a previous release, if using the database, run the delete_replication.sh script. After
installing release 9.6 on both the active and standby, run the setup_replication.sh script on both PGWs.
The delete_replication.sh script should be run as mgcusr. The script is located in /opt/CiscoMGC/local,
but if run as mgcusr, can be run from any location.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
User Part Availability Detection Limitation
117
Japanese Point Code Transmission
The setup_replication.sh script should be run as mgcusr. The script is located in /opt/CiscoMGC/local,
but if run as mgcusr, can be run from any location.
Note
For more information on running these scripts, see the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software
Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide.
Note
Provisioning must not be done during the upgrade until both PGWs (active and standby) have release 9.6
installed and the setup_replication.sh script has been run (on active and standby).
For more information, see caveat number CSCec77087.
Japanese Point Code Transmission
Point codes are used in SS7 networks as addresses for each element. There are three different point code
address lengths used in SS7 networks:
•
14-bit address
•
16-bit address
•
24-bit address
Each point code addressing type has unique formats that are used to provide a structure for the network,
where the lowest order bits in the address identify a particular signaling point, the highest order bits
identify the wider “zone”, and the bits in-between identify an “area” or “network.” For example, ANSI
SS7 uses 24-bit addresses with a format of 8-bits for each field (8-8-8).
Note
An exception to this is found in Japanese ISUP, in which the order is reversed (that is, the lowest order
bits identify the wider “zone” and the highest order bits identify a particular signaling point).
For more information, see the following documents:
•
Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Provisioning Guide
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/sc/rel9/prvgde/index.htm
•

T6 Timer Default Change
When migrating/upgrading from release 9.2(2) to releases 9.4(1) and 9.5(2), you must create a profile
(sigpathprofile) for each sigpath on which you want to change the T6 value (from the default value
(20000)).
The maximum value for T6 is 130000, which is beyond the maximum value defined in the protocol
specification.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
118
OL-3401-01
Japanese Point Code Transmission
Note
The Q761_SINGAPORE protocol specification states that the maximum value should be 32000, but the
software allows up to 130000 in response to a customer requirement.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCef03452.
Uninstalling Releases for Upgrade and Fallback
When uninstalling release 9.4(1) to upgrade to release 9.5(2), the 9.4(1) uninstall script must be used to
uninstall 9.4(1). When falling back from 9.5(2) to 9.4(1), the 9.5(2) uninstall script must be used. For
more information, see the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and
Configuration Guide.
Additional information can also be found in caveat number CSCec34395.
Simple Resource Control Protocol
The Simple Resource Control Protocol (SRCP) commands and alarms are no longer supported in the
Media Gateway Controller (MGC) software effective in software release 9.3(2). SRCP was developed as
an optional extension to the MGCP control protocol. It provided an additional heartbeat mechanism
between the Call Agent and Media Gateways to ensure that the configuration and parameters were
synchronized. When the SRCP heartbeat was enabled, the Call Agent and Media Gateways would
exchange information and the Call Agent would provide an alarm if IP addresses, Slot Numbers, Control
Protocols/Versions and other parameters were not synchronized.
The SRCP audit mechanism was developed by Cisco Systems when the MGCP protocol was still in draft
version and has never been adopted by any Standards bodies (ITU, ETSI) or other equipment suppliers.
QSIG Support in Signaling Inter-Working for Cisco Unity is ECMA Only
Signalling inter-working support for this feature is limited to QSIG implementations based on the
ECMA specification only.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCed01786.
Validation Rules of Cisco Solaris Packages are Incomplete
(mgcrestore/mgcbackup)
The mgcrestore script validates the version of the installed Solaris packages but does not ensure that the
install script was executed. If there is a mismatch between when the backup file was created and the time
of the restore, the restore is not allowed. For example, if the security package was not installed when the
backup was created, but is installed when the restore is attempted, then the restore is not allowed.
Because the script does not validate whether the script was executed, the restore validation rules might
pass, yet the restore could cause system problems.
Release Notes for the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9.4(1)
Uninstalling Releases for Upgrade and Fallback
119
Japanese Point Code Transmission
Workaround: When Cisco Packages are added and removed, ensure the install and uninstall scripts are
executed.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCdx78398.
Solaris 8 Run Time Environment
Release 9.4(1) can only be installed on a platform loaded with the Solaris 8 operating system using a
clean installation or upgrade procedure.
Failover After Bouncing SC Interfaces; Standby Remains OOS
Shutting down ethernet interfaces during a prov-dply or prov-sync can cause failover after bouncing. To
correct this, shut down both the standby and active systems and restart them.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCdy11261.
Taking a Signal Path Resource Out Of Service
During maintenance, system administrators should not use the set-dest-state and set-spc-state
MML commands to take a signal path resource out of service (OOS). These commands are used to take
a signal path resource OOS and causes all active calls served by the signal path to drop immediately.
To take a signal path resource OOS, use the set-admin-state MML command; this command blocks the
resources associated with a signal path.
Note
The set-dest-state and set-spc-state commands should only be used during dynamic provisioning.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCdx32140.
System Automatically Tunes Itself for Optimal Performance
XECfgParm.dat parameters are automatically set during of the MGC application to tune the system for
optimal performance. For more information see the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release
9 Installation and Configuration Guide.
Note
For additional information see caveat number CSCea16393.

PGW 2200 extnode Types.dat Does Not Include 3745 Access Gateway As An
External Node for DPNSS
The PGW 2200 does not allow 3745 as an external node of type IUA for DPNSS in extNodeTypes.dat.
To work around this issue, configure the node as unknown.
Note
For more information, see caveat number CSCea70581.
Using prov-cpy/prov-sync To Commit Configuration Changes on a
Fault-Tolerant System
When using the prov-cpy/prov-sync combination to commit configuration changes on a fault-tolerant
system the standby might not fully synchronize with the active which results in the second switchover
failing. The following non-service affecting workarounds can be used if this problem occurs:
Note
•
Use prov-dply, instead of the prov-cpy/prov-sync combination to commit each phase of
provisioning on a fault-tolerant system. The prov-dply command ensures that both sides are
completely synchronized.
•
After using the prov-cpy/prov-sync combination to commit configuration changes, stop and restart
the standby. Restarting the standby resynchronizes all states correctly.
For more information see caveat number CSCdw63484.
Modifying the OPC of an SS7 Route
When prov-ed is used to modify the OPC of an SS7ROUTE or SS7PATH, the PGW software must be
stopped and restarted before changes take affect. Stopping and restarting the system results in a
service-affecting outage. To make a change without stopping and restarting the PGW, complete the
following procedure:
Step 1
Start a provisioning session on the active machine.
Step 2
Use prov-dlt to remove the following components:
•
SS7ROUTE,
•
all associated trunks to the SS7PATH
•
SS7PATH
•
DPC
Step 3
Execute the prov-dply command.
Step 4
Start a second provisioning session on the active machine.
Step 5
Use prov-add to add the following components:
•
DPC
•
SS7PATH
