ISDN Calling Commands

ISDN Calling Commands

This chapter describes the commands used to configure Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) calling, such as on-demand dialing and security.

Configuring Directory Numbers

This section describes the association between the ISDN directory numbers, the service profile identification numbers (SPIDs) and the analog telephone port(s) of the router.


Note Detailed information regarding the commands discussed in this chapter are provided in the Cisco 700 Series Router Command Reference.

SPIDs and Directory Numbers

SPIDS are in common use only in North America. If you are using ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) service in North America, your telephone service provider might assign zero, one, or two SPIDs to your BRI line, depending on what kind of switch the service provider uses. For 5ESS Custom switches, no SPID is assigned if the service provider is using a point-to-point switch, and one SPID is usually assigned for a multipoint switch. For DMS-100, NI1 and NI1-compliant switches, two SPIDs are usually assigned. All other switch types usually do not use SPIDs.

If your BRI line is assigned two SPIDs, it is suggested that you use the first SPID directory number for data calls and the second SPID directory number for the incoming voice calls to reduce the chances a data call will be disconnected when the router receives incoming voice calls.

SPIDs define the services available to the router. SPID numbers are determined by your service provider. For example, a directory number is considered a service and is associated with a SPID. A SPID can have more than one directory number associated with it. Cisco 700 series routers support up to three directory numbers for each SPID and up to two SPIDs, for a total of six directory numbers.

Analog Telephone Ports

The analog telephone ports are basic telephone service (POTS) ports, as opposed to an ISDN telephone port, such as the S/T port. The POTS ports are mapped to the directory numbers.

Cisco 765, Cisco 766, Cisco 775, and Cisco 776 routers have two analog telephone ports. The phone numbers for the ports are assigned using the set phone command. However, if your BRI line is assigned zero or one SPID, only one analog telephone port can be used at one time. If your BRI line is assigned two SPIDs, both analog telephone ports can be used simultaneously.

If no directory numbers are associated (mapped) to the POTS ports, the default function of analog telephones is dependent on the number of SPIDs assigned to the ISDN BRI line. Table 5-1 describes the default behavior of the POTS ports if your SPIDs and directory numbers are defined and you do not use the set phone command to configure the POTS ports.

1SPIDs are used only inside North America. This column shows the behavior of the analog telephone ports for devices outside North America, where SPIDs are not used.
2An X indicates that the behavior applies for this configuration.

Data Over Voice Bearer Service

This section applies only to North American analog telephone services.

The router recognizes the difference between a data call and a voice call. In some tariff areas, voice calls are less expensive than data calls. Cisco 700 series routers support incoming and outgoing DOV calls. DOV calls are data calls made over the BRI (voice) line using Voice Bearer Capability (VBC).

If a directory number has been configured for DOV, incoming data calls with VBC are routed to the LAN through the Ethernet port, as shown in Figure 5-1. Incoming voice calls are forwarded to the analog (voice) device over the analog telephone port, as shown in Figure 5-2.


Figure 5-1: Data Call with VBC

Figure 5-2:
Voice Call over VBC Line

The set dov command instructs the router to treat incoming calls to a specified directory number as data calls. (Before using the set phone command to configure DOV, you must set the directory number with the correct SPID, as described in the section "Configuring Directory Numbers," in this chapter.)

Any call received on the port that has been associated with this directory number is treated as DOV and is forwarded to the LAN. One or two directory numbers can be configured for DOV with the set phone command.

The set speed command with the voice keyword sets VBC on for outgoing DOV calls, enabling the features of VBC and DOV.

Automatic Data Call Disconnect

You can automatically disconnect a data call when a voice call is made or received and two data calls are in progress. The set voicepriority command determines if a data call will be disconnected when the router makes or receives a voice call.

If the priority is set to always, data calls are always bumped in favor of voice calls.

If the priority is set to conditional, the data call is disconnected from one channel if the data call can continue over another channel.

If the priority is set to never, data calls are never bumped in favor of voice calls.

If the priority is set to disable, data calls are handled as indicated by the set phone DOV command.

The voice priority mode is dependent on several factors, including the following:

Distinctive Ringing

Cisco 700 series routers have a Distinctive Ring Manager (DRM) that can support distinctive ringing cadences for up to six external devices using the set phone command. These external devices can be a telephone or fax machine. Each POTS interface can support up to three devices.

call

To make a manual ISDN call on a specified link to a specified telephone number, use the call command.

CAll [object] [number]
Syntax Description

object

Can consist of a link or a channel.

number

The telephone number of the remote ISDN device. If no telephone number is entered, the router calls the number configured in the current profile with the set number command. If no number is entered and the current profile has not been configured with a number, this command has no effect.

Default

None

Command Mode

System or profile mode

Usage Guidelines

The object parameter can take one of these forms:

    1. Connection

    2. Link

    3. Channel

If no link number is specified, the call is placed on both links. If no destination telephone number is specified, the unit uses the number configured for the current profile.

Example

The following example makes a manual call on the second link to 408 555-1212 while in profile mode for profile 2503:

Host:2503> call 2 4085551212
Related Commands

set button
set number

demand

To specify when an on-demand ISDN call will be made, use the demand command.

DEmand [link] [THreshold = kbps] [DUration= seconds] [SOurce =WAN | LAn | BOth]
Syntax Description

link

Specifies the link with which all the following parameters are associated.

THreshold

Minimum data rate (in kbps) that must exist on the channel before the call will be made. The range is 0 to 128.1

Inband negotiation traffic (traffic that terminates at the router) is not taken into account for the threshold level.

DUration

Length of time (in seconds) that the traffic is to be above the data threshold before the call is made. The range is 1 to 255.

SOurce

Source of traffic that is counted.

WAN

Traffic received from the ISDN line.

LAn

Traffic received from the LAN.

BOth

The value of LAN or the ISDN traffic, whichever is higher.

1The data rate measured is the data that the router intends to forward across the ISDN line, so the data rate might actually exceed the physical capacity of the line.
Default

Channel 1---threshold 0 duration 1 source lan
Channel 2---threshold 48 duration 1 source both

Command Mode

System or profile mode

Usage Guidelines

On-demand dialing must be enabled with the set auto command.

Example

The following example determines when on-demand dialing will take place for profile 2503:

Host:2503> demand 1 threshold 10 duration 2 source lan
 

This specifies that link 1 will dial if 10 kbps is continuously exceeded for 2 seconds.

Related Commands

set auto
set delay
set ppp callback
set ppp negotiation retry
set ppp negotiation count
set ppp bacp
set ringback
set timeout
timeout
show negotiation

disconnect

To manually terminate an ISDN call, use the disconnect command.

DIsconnect [object | ALl]
Syntax Description

object

ISDN B channel or link. Can be 1 or 2. If no channel or link is entered, any connected calls are terminated.

ALl

Disconnects all calls.

Default

None

Command Mode

Profile mode

Usage Guidelines

The object parameter can take one of these forms:

    1. Connection

    2. Link

    3. Channel

The router may automatically reconnect the call after using the disconnect command. This can occur if on-demand dialing is enabled and a telephone number has been entered with the set number command. If the router receives enough packets to meet the demand threshold parameters, a new call is made.

Examples

The following example disconnects a call on the first link:

Host> disconnect 1
 

The following example disconnects any calls on both links of the current connection:

Host> disconnect
Related Command

set number

establish

To reassign a released service profile identifier (SPID) to the router, use the establish command.

EStablish [spidid]

Note This command is applicable to US switches only.
Syntax Description

spidid

Specify the number of the SPID you are establishing (1 or 2) as set by the set spid command.

Default

None

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

This command is applicable only in the United States. It reassigns one of the SPIDs after it has been released to a device other than the router. For example, if you have two SPIDs and the router is using both of them for data, one of the SPIDs has to be released if an ISDN phone is to be used.

Example

The following example reassigns the SPID ID2 to the router following a release:

establish 2
 

The following is a typical sequence of events:

    1. A unit has two calls established.

    2. A call is disconnected by the user to free the B channel.

    3. User releases the second SPID by entering: REL 2. The message "Terminal Identifier Unassigned" displays.

    4. The same SPID is activated by the user in another ISDN TE on the same DSL.

    5. Use of the other TE is finished and the user frees the SPID.

    6. User reactivates the SPID in the unit by entering: ES 2.

    7. A second channel call is made by the user of the unit.

Related Command

release

release

To release the Layer 2 link and Terminal Identifier (TEI) Unassigned associated with a SPID so that it can be used by another device on the same ISDN line (SBus), use the release command.

RElease [spidid]
Syntax Description

spidid

Specify the number of the SPID you are releasing (1 or 2) as set by the set spid command. (North America only.)

Default

None

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

Use this command when your ISDN line only supports two SPIDs and one B channel per SPID (DMS-100). When released, the SPID still resides in memory, so you do not have to reenter the SPID. To reassign the SPID back to the router, use the establish command.

Example

The following example releases the Channel 1 SPID from the router so that it can be used by another device on the same ISDN line:

Host> release 1 
Related Command

set alawvoice

To set voice encoding, use the set alawvoice command.

SEt ALawvoice ON | OFf

Note This command is applicable only in the NET3 image (Europe).
Syntax Description

ON

Voice encoding is set to A-law.

OFf

Voice encoding is set to micro-law (µ-law or Mu-law).

Default

On

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

For the NET3 switch type, the set alawvoice command changes the voice encoding to micro-law for countries such as Taiwan. Most countries that use the NET3 switch type use A-law voice encoding. This command is needed for countries (such as Taiwan) that require micro-law.

Example

The following example sets voice encoding to A-law:

Host> set alawvoice on

set auto

To enable or disable on-demand dialing, use the set auto command.

SEt [link] AUto ON | OFf
Syntax Description

link

Link on which on-demand dialing is enabled or disabled. Can be set to 1 or 2. If no link is specified, on-demand dialing is enabled or disabled on both links.

ON

Enables on-demand dialing.

OFf

Disables on-demand dialing.

Default

channel 1---enabled (on)
channel 2---enabled (on)

Command Mode

Profile mode

Example

The following example disables on-demand dialing for the second channel:

Host> set 2 auto off
Related Commands

demand
set ppp callback
set ppp negotiation retry
set ppp negotiation count
set ppp bacp
set ringback
set timeout
show negotiation

set autodetection

To enable or disable automatic service profile identifiers (SPID) detection, use the set autodetection command.

SEt AUTODetection ON | OFf

Note This command is available only in the US image.
Syntax Description

ON

Specifies a North American switch with auto detection enabled. You must enter the directory number, including the area code.

OFf

Disables the auto detection feature. You must enter the SPID numbers and switch type.

Default

Off

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

The auto-SPID and auto-switch detection features simplify the use of ISDN terminal equipment because there are fewer parameters to enter. Before the feature is enabled, the user only enters the local directory numbers and area code. No SPID number or switch type is required. This reduces the possibility of mistakes made by the user or the carrier.

During the detection process, the control software tries to register SPIDs with the switch based on the local directory numbers and area code. After a successful registration, the control software stores the detected SPIDs and switch type in NVRAM, as if they were entered by the user.

If auto detection fails to register SPIDs with the ISDN switch, the system prompts the user with an error message. The user will be required to manually enter SPID number(s) and switch type.

The auto-detection feature only applies to North American ISDN switches, usually a 5ESS Custom, DMS-100 Custom, NI1, or NI2 switch. The auto-detection mechanism might not work with any other switch, such as Siemens switch.

The user can enter up to six directory numbers in software Release 4.0(1) and higher, three for each interface. Including the area code helps the auto detection software speed up the registration process.

The following limitations are inherit in SPID auto detection.

Example

The following example disables on-demand dialing for the second channel:

Host> set 1 directorynumber 4085551234
Host> set 2 directorynumber 4085552345
Host> set autodetection on

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

This command applies to NI1 and DMS switches only. Feature access codes for a particular supplementary service varies from ISP to ISP. There is no range for these codes.

Example

The following example changes the code used by the service provider to activate the call:

Host> set conference = 66

set countrygroup

To set the ring cadence duration for the analog telephone equipment for a specific country group, use the set countrygroup command.

SEt COUntryGroup groupnumber
Syntax Description

groupnumber

Set a ring cadence for the analog telephone equipment for a specific country.

Default

1 (North America)

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

This command only applies to routers with analog telephone support. Ring cadences for the analog telephone equipment differ for each country. This command allows you to choose the appropriate ring cadence.


Note Refer to the version command to verify the correct analog telephone daughter card.

Related Command

version

set delay

To set the time between unsuccessful demand call attempts, use the set delay command.

SEt [link] DElay seconds
Syntax Description

link

Link to which the delay time applies. If no link is entered, the delay time is set for both links.

DElay

Number of seconds between unsuccessful call attempts. This value can be between 10 and 32767 seconds. Another call is attempted when the delay time has expired only if the parameters set by the demand command are met.

Default

Link 1---30 seconds
Link 2---30 seconds

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

The delay time applies to all ISDN demand call attempts.

If the routers at both ends of an ISDN connection are configured with on-demand dialing enabled and the same delay time, unsuccessful calls can lead to a nonterminating error condition. This condition occurs when each router repeatedly tries to call the other at exactly the same delay time. Neither call will be successful, and both routers will repeat the call attempt at the same delay interval.

Example

The following example sets the first channel to retry demand calls every 15 seconds:

Host> set 1 delay 15
Related Command

demand
set backup number

set directorynumber

To enter the router directory number, use the set directorynumber command.

SEt [spidid] DIrectorynumber = number [.subaddress]

Note The SPID ID is applicable to U. S. switches only.
Syntax Description

spidid

The SPID ID can be 1 or 2. Depending on your ISDN service provider, your line might be assigned one or two SPIDs.

If no SPID ID is specified, the directory number is associated with SPID1 in the case of switches with SPIDs.

number

The directory number assigned by the telephone company. Can have 2 to 20 digits. For Cisco 760 and Cisco 770 series routers, a maximum of six directory numbers are allowed. For Cisco 750 series routers, a maximum of two directory numbers are allowed.

.subaddress

Subaddress of a device on a multipoint ISDN line. Can have 1 to 10 digits.

Default

No directory number is configured.

Command Mode

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

When setting multidestination, make sure you are not creating a bridging loop.

Example

The following example enables multidestination dialing:

Host> set multidestination on

set number

To enter the ISDN telephone number that each link calls, use the set number command.

SEt [link] NUmber = [number .subaddress]
Syntax Description

link

The link to which the telephone number is assigned. This number can be 1 or 2. If no link is specified, the number is applied to both links.

number

The telephone number called when dialing on demand. The number can consist of 1 to 32 digits. This number should include all numbers required for the router to complete the call (for example, access codes and area codes).

.subaddress

The subaddress of a device on a multipoint ISDN line. The address can be 1 to 10 digits.

Default

No ISDN telephone numbers configured.

Command Mode

Profile mode

Usage Guidelines

To delete a number entered with the set number command, enter the command without the telephone number.

Examples

The following example sets a telephone number that is automatically dialed for profile 2503:

set plan

set permanent

Use the set link permanent command to enable permanent connections.

SEt link PErmanent ON | OFf
Syntax Description

link

Specifies channel 1, channel 2 or D, where the D channel has AO/DI configured.

PErmanent

Specifies permanent mode of operation.

ON

Enables permanent mode.

OFf

Disables permanent mode.

Default

Off

Command Mode

Profile mode

Usage Guidelines

Customers and Internet service providers (ISPs) in areas served by carriers providing flat-rate ISDN can have their lines connected permanently. This overrides any timeout and threshold parameters. It also allows the flexibility of having one or more channels permanently up.

This feature is not dependent on the switch for permanent connections and can work on any switch type.

On power up, the router tries to bring up all permanent connections. If for any reason a connection gets disconnected, the router attempts to reconnect.

If permanent mode is specified for more than one link on a single profile, all links come up only if Multilink PPP is configured. If the D channel is configured for permanent mode, it comes up only if no other B channels are active.

If the idling D channel configured for permanent mode is disconnected, it will not come up if any B channel is already connected, until the B channel call is discontinued. Permanent mode can be configured for three links only, two B channels and the D channel, across all profiles. If you enter this command after having configured it for two B channels and the D channel, an error message displays on the console screen.

The permanent mode setting overrides only timeout and threshold parameters and not other events such as

These events cause the line to be disconnected, but in permanent mode the router attempts to restore the line immediately.

set phone

To select the interface to which the voice calls are routed, use the set phone command.

SEt PHONE1 | PHONE2 | DOV number [.subaddress][ring1 | ring2 | ring3]

Note This command applies only to routers with analog telephone support.
Syntax Description

PHONE1 PHONE2

The telephone interface to which the voice calls will be routed. If no interface has been associated with an incoming voice call, the default routing will be to PHONE1.

DOV

(Data Over Voice) If a directory number is associated with the DOV interface, all incoming voice calls to that number will be treated as data over voice calls and routed to the Ethernet interface.

number

The directory number associated with that interface. There is one directory number per telephone interface. Two directory numbers can be assigned to be data over voice.

.subaddress

Subaddress of a device on a multipoint ISDN line. This number can have 1 to 10 digits.

ring1

Specifies the ringing cadence. If the ringing cadence is not specified, the original country's tone is generated. Ring 1 signals DRM to route the incoming call to output port 1.

ring2

Specifies the ringing cadence. If the ringing cadence is not specified, the original country's tone is generated. Ring 2 signals DRM to route the incoming call to output port 2.

ring3

Specifies the ringing cadence. If the ringing cadence is not specified, the original country's tone is generated. Ring 3 signals DRM to route the incoming call to output port 3.

Default

PHONE1

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

If you are connected to a 5ESS Custom switch and you have assigned multiple directory numbers to a SPID, an incoming voice call destined for a secondary directory number is routed as the primary directory number. As a result, the call is routed to a different phone interface or uses a different ring cadence than expected.

The Distinctive Ringing feature provides up to three distinctive ring cadences that can be assigned to directory numbers.

Ring Type 1

2 seconds on, 4 seconds off

Ring Type 2

0.8 seconds on, 0.4 seconds off, 0.8 seconds on, 4 seconds off

Ring Type 3

0.4 seconds on, 0.2 seconds off, 0.4 seconds on, 0.2 seconds off, 0.8 seconds on, 4 seconds off

Example

The following example sets the telephone interface, directory number, and ring cadence:

Host> set phone1 6592651 ring1
Related Command

reset phone

set plan

To set the numbering plan for outgoing calls, use the set plan command.

SEt PLan NOrmal | INternational | NAtional | SUbscriber | UNknown ISDN | ABbreviated | CEntrex| NEtwork
Syntax Description

NOrmal

Unknown numbering type with unknown numbering plan (most common case).

INternational

The international numbering type with ISDN numbering plan.

NAtional

The national umbering type with ISDN numbering plan.

SUbscriber

Local numbering type with ISDN numbering plan.

UNknown ISDN

Unknown numbering type with ISDN numbering plan.

ABbreviated

Abbreviated numbering type with private numbering plan.

CEntrex

Local numbering type with private numbering plan.

NEtwork

Network specific numbering type with private numbering plan.

Default

Normal

Command Mode

Profile mode

Usage Guidelines

The numbering plan is the type of telephone numbering plan the router uses when making calls. Numbering plans are predefined settings that configure calls so that they conform to telephone system requirements.

Example

The following example sets the router to use the international numbering plan when making calls:

Host> set plan international

set ringback

To set the router's ringback number, use the set ringback command.

SEt [link] RIngback [number [.subaddress]]
Syntax Description

link

The ISDN B channel to which the ringback number applies. Can be 1 or 2. If no channel is specified, the ringback number applies to both channels.

number

The number sent to the remote router to make a callback to the Cisco router (your local router phone number). Can be 1 to 32 digits. This number must include all the digits necessary for the remote router to complete a call to the Cisco router, for example, area and access codes.

.subaddress

Specifies a particular device on a multipoint ISDN line. Can be 1 to 10 digits.

Default

No ringback number is configured.

Command Mode

Profile level

Usage Guidelines

The ringback number is the number string used by the remote router to make a callback to your router. If a remote router is calling in from a different area code, requires a different access codes or a country code, it might be necessary to specify that ringback number in each profile. For example, the ringback number for a remote router in the same area code might be 555-1234 while the ringback number for a remote router outside the area code might be 1408555-1234, and the ringback number for a remote router on a PBX might be 95551234.

If BACP or BAP is used, the ringback number has another function; to make a second-channel call, the router uses a combination of the number it used to make the first-channel call, and the remote router's second-channel ringback number.

For example, the Cisco router calls 555-1234 to reach the first channel of the remote router. If the second channel telephone number is 555-5678, set the remote router's second-channel ringback number to 5678. The Cisco router uses the prefix of the first number it called (555) plus the second channel's ringback number (5678) to make the second call.

Example

The following example sets the number that a remote router uses when making a callback to the Cisco router on the first ISDN B channel:

Host> set 1 ringback 14155551234

set speed

To set the speed of data calls, use the set speed command.

SEt SPeed 56 | 64 | AUto | VOice
Syntax Description

56

Outgoing calls are made and connected at 56 kbps. Incoming calls are connected at 56 kbps.

64

Outgoing calls are made and connected at 64 kbps.

Incoming calls are connected at 64 kbps, unless Bearer Capability (BC) indicates the call is at 56 kbps. In this case, calls are connected at 56 kbps.

AUto

Outgoing calls are attempted at 64 kbps. If unsuccessful, the call is retried. Incoming calls are connected at the speed indicated by BC and ISDN messages.

VOice

Outgoing calls are made using Voice Bearer Capability (VBC) and data is transferred at 56 kbps. Used for Data Over Voice (DOV). This parameter is used only in the United States. Incoming calls are connected as in auto mode.

Default

Auto

Command Mode

Profile mode

Usage Guidelines

The voice keyword should be used only with ISDN switch types 5ESS, DMS or NI1.

Example

The following example sets the speed for data calls to 64 kbps for profile 2503:

Host:2503> set speed 64

set spid

To enter a service profile identifier (SPID), use the set spid command. (North America only.)

SEt [spidid] SPId [spidnumber]
Syntax Description

spidid

(Optional if there is only one SPID) Used as a convenient single-digit number to identify the actual long SPIDs allocated by service providers.

spidnumber

Number identifying the service to which you have subscribed. This value is assigned by the ISDN service provider and is usually a ten-digit telephone number with some extra digits. The SPID number can consist of 1 to 20 digits.

Default

No SPIDs are configured.

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

To delete a previously entered SPID, use the set spid command without the SPID number argument.

Examples

The following example sets two SPIDs for the line:

Host> set 1 spid 0408555123401
Host> set 2 spid 0405555123402
 

The following example deletes the first SPID:

Host> set 1 spid

PERM64

Dedicated line service that enables the unit to use a single 64-kbps data stream connected to one port. With this option, Channel 1 runs at 64 kbps, and Channel 2 is not used. NTT's Super Digital service is an example of a leased line server. (Japan)

PERM128

Dedicated line service that enables the unit to use a single 128-kbps data stream connected to one port. With this option, Channel 1 and 2 are combine to run at 128 kbps. (An example is Japan NTT's HSD service.)

PERM2X64

Bundles the B channels even if they are not synchronized. (When the unit is set in PERM128 mode, only one PPP session runs at 128 kbps, and both B channels must be synchronized.)

Default

The switch type depends on which image of the Cisco IOS-700 software is loaded. For example, if your image is c760-in.b-US.41-1, the default is 5ESS.

Command Mode

System mode

Usage Guidelines

Not all switch settings are available to all users. The switch type available depends on the type of software loaded into the unit.

perm2x64 enables the router to use both of the 64-kbps data streams for connecting to the remote end. In this mode, the B channels are bundled together to total 128 kbps, with the help of Multilink PPP (MLP).

When the unit is set in PERM128 mode, only one PPP session runs at 128 kbps and both B channels must be synchronized. PERM2X64 mode bundles the B channels even if they are not synchronized.

Example

The following example configures the ISDN switch type as DMS:

Host> set switch dms

set timeout

To configure the amount of time the ISDN line remains idle before disconnecting, use the set timeout command. This command sets the same parameter as the timeout duration command.

SEt [link] TIMEout [seconds | OFf]
