Cisco MC3810-IGX 8400 Interworking provides the following benefits:
CVM-Channelized voice module on the Cisco 8400 IGX switch.
FRAD-Frame Relay Access Device.
FTC trunk-Frame trunk card (FTC) channel is the channel between the Cisco MC8310 and the IGX 8400 switch.
FTM-Frame Trunk Module on the Cisco 8400 IGX switch.
FTM protocol-The FTM protocol is the name given to the framing and information exchange protocols used between the Cisco MC3810 and the FTM card in the IGX. The frames are standards-based on the outside (Data-Link Control Identifier, CRC), but use a proprietary encapsulation inside.
UVM-Universal voice module on the Cisco 8400 IGX switch.
The following restrictions and limitations apply to the Cisco MC3810-IGX interworking implementation:
This feature is supported on the Cisco MC3810 only.
None.
When you configure IGX interworking on the Cisco MC3810, you must configure one interface to serve as the FTC trunk, and then you configure the specific connections over that FTC trunk.
This section is divided into the following sections:
This section assumes that you have already configured the following:
The Cisco MC3810 FTC management data link connection identifier (DLCI) is required when configuring Cisco MC3810-IGX Interworking. You can only have one FTC management DLCI on each Cisco MC3810, but that management DLCI can also carry data and/or voice connections, or data and/or voice connections in conjunction with a Frame Relay trunk or a voice DLCI. You can configure the FTC management DLCI, the FTC Frame Relay DLCIs and FTC voice DLCIs in the following combinations:
Regardless of the combination, you can configure up to 100 connections over the FTC trunk port.
To configure the Cisco MC3810 FTC management DLCI to the IGX 8400 FTM, perform the following tasks on the Cisco MC3810 beginning in configuration mode:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
1 | interface serial {0 | 1} | If configuring the FTC trunk on serial interface 0 or 1, enter interface configuration mode. |
| or |
|
| interface serial 0:x | If configuring the FTC trunk over the T1/E1 trunk, enter interface configuration mode, where x indicates the channel group number. |
2 | encapsulation ftc-trunk | Enable FTC trunk encapsulation on the interface. Note You can have only one interface on the Cisco MC3810 configured as the FTC trunk at one time. |
3 | ftc-trunk management-dlci dlci [remote-management-dlci dlci] | Map the FTC trunk to an existing management data link connection identifier (DLCI). Enter the remote-management-dlci value if there is a public Frame Relay cloud between the Cisco MC3810 FTC port and the IGX FTM port. Enter this option only if the local DLCI and the remote DLCI are not the same. Note The DLCI (or the remote DLCI if configured) must match the DLCI on the IGX switch configured using the IGX addad command. |
4 | ftc-trunk management-protocol {normal | inverted} | Select the mode in which the management frames are sent. Use normal mode when the Cisco MC3810 is connected to the IGX switch. When two Cisco MC3810 concentrators are connected back-to-back, use inverted mode on one concentrator; the other concentrator should be set to normal mode. |
You have a choice of how to proceed from here. Choose one of the following options:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
5 | connect interface dlci dlci ftc-trunk connection-id cid | (Optional) Configure a data connection between the Cisco MC3810 and the IGX switch that will travel over the FTC management DLCI. For the ftc-trunk value, enter the interface on which the FTC trunk was configured on. For example, if you configured serial 0 as the FTC trunk, enter serial 0 for the ftc-trunk value. |
6 | connect voice dial-peer-tag ftc-trunk connection-id cid | (Optional) Configure a voice connection between a voice dial-peer and the IGX switch that will travel over the FTC management DLCI. The dial peer can be either a POTS dial peer or a Voice over Frame Relay dial peer. |
7 | Repeat step 5 or step 6 for each data or voice connection over the FTC management DLCI. | |
For Frame Relay management DLCI connections on the IGX FTM card, use the following command syntax to add the Frame Relay management trunk connection(s) to the Cisco MC3810:
addad <slot.port> <access_device_ID> <management DLCI>
The management DLCI must match the DLCI or remote-management DLCI configured using the Cisco MC3810 ftc-trunk management-dlci command.
In addition to the FTC management DLCI, you can optionally configure an FTC Frame Relay DLCI for data traffic. The FTC Frame Relay data travels over the FTC management DLCI configured in the previous section.
To configure the Cisco MC3810 FTC Frame Relay DLCI to support data connections to the IGX 8400 switch, perform the following tasks on the Cisco MC3810 beginning in configuration mode:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
1 | interface serial {0 | 1} | If configuring the FTC trunk on serial interface 0 or 1, enter interface configuration mode. |
| interface serial 0:x | If configuring the FTC trunk over the T1/E1 trunk, enter interface configuration mode, where x indicates the channel group number. Note Enter the same interface that you created the FTC Trunk on. Make sure the interface is set to encapsulation ftc-trunk. |
2 | ftc-trunk frame-relay-dlci dlci [remote-frame-relay-dlci dlci] | Map the FTC Frame Relay DLCI to an existing Frame Relay data-link connection identifier (DLCI). Enter the remote-management-dlci value if there is a public Frame Relay cloud between the Cisco MC3810 FTC port and the IGX FTM port. Enter this option only if the local DLCI and the remote DLCI are not the same. Note Do not enter the same DLCI that was assigned to the FTC management DLCI. |
3 | Repeat this procedure on each Cisco MC3810 that will send data traffic to an IGX 8400 switch via an FTC Frame Relay DLCI. | |
After the Frame Relay FTC DLCI is configured, you can now establish connections over the FTC trunk. For more information about the connection procedures, see one of the following sections:
To configure the connection between the Cisco MC3810 Frame Relay DLCI and the FTC trunk, perform the following tasks on the Cisco MC3810 beginning in configuration mode:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
1 | connect interface dlci dlci ftc-trunk connection-id cid | Configure a connection between the DLCI and the FTC trunk. For the ftc-trunk value, enter the interface on which the FTC trunk was configured. For example, if you configured serial 0 as the FTC trunk, enter serial 0 for the ftc-trunk value. |
2 | Repeat step 1 for each data connection over the FTC Frame Relay trunk. | |
For information on configuring the data channels on the IGX switch, see the "Configuring the Data Channels on the IGX Switch" section.
To configure a Frame Forward connection over the FTC trunk, ensure the encapsulation for the source port is High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) and perform the following tasks on the Cisco MC3810 beginning in configuration mode:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
1 | interface serial {0 | 1} | Enter serial interface configuration mode. Note This interface is not the FTC trunk interface. |
2 | encapsulation hdlc | Enable HDLC encapsulation on the interface. |
3 | connect interface dlci dlci ftc-trunk connection-id cid | Configure a connection between the DLCI and the FTC trunk. For the ftc-trunk value, enter the interface on which the FTC trunk was configured. For example, if you configured serial 0 as the FTC trunk, enter serial 0 for the ftc-trunk value. |
4 | Repeat step 3 for each data connection over the FTC Frame Relay trunk. | |
For information on configuring the data channels on the IGX switch, see the "Configuring the Data Channels on the IGX Switch" section.
When you configure an IP routing connection over the FTC trunk, you must use the special switch0 designation on the interface:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
1 | interface switch0 | Enter interface configuration mode for Switch0. Note On the Cisco MC3810, you must configure IP routing on the switch0 logical interface. |
2 | frame-relay map ip ip-address dlci | Map the Frame Relay DLCI to the IP address. |
3 | connect switch0 dlci dlci ftc-trunk connection-id cid | Configure an IP routing connection between the DLCI and the FTC trunk. Make sure to specify switch0 as the local IP interface. For the ftc-trunk value, enter the interface on which the FTC trunk was configured. For example, if you configured serial 0 as the FTC trunk, enter serial 0 for the ftc-trunk value. |
4 | Repeat step 3 for each IP routing data connection over the FTC Frame Relay trunk. | |
For information on configuring the data channels on the IGX switch, see the next section "Configuring the Data Channels on the IGX Switch".
For Frame Relay connections on the IGX switch, use the following command syntax to add the Frame Relay connection(s) to the Cisco MC3810:
addcon <local_channel> <remote_node> <remote_channel> [con_type] <frame_relay_class | [individual parameters]> [route_avoid]
In addition to the FTC management DLCI, you can optionally configure an FTC voice DLCI for voice traffic. The FTC voice traffic travels over the FTC management DLCI configured in the previous section.
To configure the FTC voice DLCI to support voice connections to the IGX 8400 switch, perform the following tasks on the Cisco MC3810 beginning in configuration mode:
| Step | Command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
1 | interface serial {0 | 1} | If configuring the FTC trunk on serial interface 0 or 1, enter interface configuration mode. |
| or |
|
| interface serial 0:x | If configuring the FTC trunk over the T1/E1 trunk, enter interface configuration mode, where x indicates the channel group number. Note Enter the same interface on which you created the FTC management trunk. Make sure the interface is set to encapsulation ftc-trunk. |
2 | ftc-trunk voice-dlci dlci [remote-voice-dlci dlci] | Map the FTC trunk to an existing Frame Relay DLCI. Enter the remote-management-dlci value if there is a public Frame Relay cloud between the Cisco MC3810 FTC port and the IGX FTM port. Enter this option only if the local DLCI and the remote DLCI are not the same. Note Do not enter the same DLCI that was assigned to the FTC management DLCI. |
3 | connect voice dial-peer-tag ftc-trunk connection-id cid | Configure a connection between a voice dial peer and the FTC trunk. The dial peer can be either a POTS dial peer or a Voice over Frame Relay dial peer. When making a connection from a Cisco MC3810 to an IGX UVM or CVM, use a POTS dial peer (the connection ID must be an even number). When making a connection from a Cisco MC3810 to a second Cisco MC3810, use a VoFR dial peer. For the ftc-trunk value, enter the interface on which the FTC trunk was configured. For example, if you configured serial 0 as the FTC trunk, enter serial 0 for the ftc-trunk value. |
4 | Repeat step 3 for each dial peer that will be connected over the FTC voice trunk. | |
Repeat this procedure on each Cisco MC3810 that will send voice traffic to an IGX 8400 switch via an FTC voice DLCI.
For information on configuring the voice channels on the IGX switch, see the next section "Configuring the Voice Channels on the IGX Switch."
For voice connections on the IGX switch, use the following command syntax to add connections to the Cisco MC3810:
addcon <local_channel> <remote node> <remote channel> <type> [avoid]
When configuring the voice channels, make sure the same voice compression mode that was configured on the Cisco MC3810 using the codec command is configured on the IGX voice channels. For example, if the codec command was set to g729ar8 on the Cisco MC3810 voice port, make sure that the UVM connection is also configured to support g729ar8 compression.
This section provides an example of how to configure the Cisco MC3810 to act as an access device to an IGX 8400 switch.
Figure 1 shows an example of two Cisco MC3810 concentrators connected to an IGX 8400 FTM, with other connections to the UVM through a PBX. The configuration examples following the figure include commands to set up the session connections, the voice PVC connections, routing through switch 0, Common Channel Signaling (CCS) frame forwarding support, the Cisco MC3810-UVM connections, and the Cisco MC3810-CVM connections.
Because the voice connections between the two Cisco MC3810 concentrators are over a Frame Relay network, VoFR dial peers must be configured on both concentrators. The session target configured on both concentrators should be the same.
