Caller ID for Cisco MC3810, 2600, and 3600 Series Routers

Caller ID for Cisco MC3810, 2600, and 3600 Series Routers

This document describes Cisco IOS configuration for Caller ID as supported on the Cisco MC3810 multiservice access concentrator and on Cisco 2600 and 3600 series modular access routers and includes the following sections:

Feature Overview

Caller ID (sometimes called CLID or ICLID for incoming call line identification) is an analog service offered by a Central Office (CO), which supplies calling party information to subscribers. Typically, the calling party number, and sometimes the name, appears on a station (also called extension) device such as a PC telephony software application screen or the display on a telephone. Type 1 Caller ID provides the calling party information while the call is ringing, and Type 2 Caller ID provides the additional convenience of calling number display while the recipient is on another call. In this release, Cisco provides only Type 1 Caller ID support.

The Caller ID feature supports the sending of calling party information from Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) loop-start and ground-start ports into a Caller-ID equipped telephone device. The FXS port emulates the extension interface of a private-branch exchange (PBX) or the subscriber interface for a CO switch.

The Caller ID feature supports receiving calling-party information at Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) loop-start and ground-start ports. The FXO port emulates a connection to a telephone and allows connection to a PBX extension interface or (where regulations permit) a CO subscriber line.

Benefits

Enterprises

Caller ID is invaluable for increasing efficiency through its use in computer telephony integration (CTI) applications, where for example, calling party information can be used to retrieve client information from a database when a customer call is received.

Service Provider

In traditional telephony, Caller ID is a standard service that service provider customers expect. With the Cisco support for Caller ID, service providers can offer the feature for packet-switched Voice over IP, Voice over Frame Relay, and Voice over ATM services.

Restrictions

This section describes how Caller ID information is carried inside and outside the network.

Calling Name and Number


Figure 1: Caller ID and ANI Support with Cisco MC3810 and 2600 and 3600 Series Routers

Figure 1 shows a hypothetical topology where users, indicated by telephone icons, receive different types of Caller-ID support depending upon whether the Caller-ID information from the caller passes through an FXO or FXS port before reaching the party who receives the call.

Table 1 shows how Caller-ID information is received by the users in Figure 1:

C

D

Calling Number of C goes through ANI to the PSTN. However, the PSTN displays only the trunk ID, so D sees only this information.

C

F

The information that F receives depends on the PBX features available.

Call Time Display

When Caller-ID information is sent, the local time set on the router is transmitted with the station name and number. If a call received on an FXO port is terminated on an FXS port, the calling time received on the FXO port is replaced by the local time while transmitting Caller ID to the FXS port. This is also true for calls received from the network. The router should be configured to retrieve network time at boot up from an NTP server in order to maintain the correct local time setting.

The remainder of this section describes the steps required to configure Caller ID on FXS and FXO voice ports.

Configuring Voice Ports to Support Caller ID

Follow the steps in order to configure FXS and FXO voice ports for Caller ID. Not all voice-port commands appear here. Use the reference information in the "Related Documents" section to find out more about voice-port configuration.

Required Preliminary Steps

Command Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2 

Router(config)# voice-port slot/port
 
 
 
 
or
 
Router(config)# voice-port
slot-number/subunit-number/port

Enter voice-port configuration mode on a Cisco MC3810.

The slot number for analog voice ports on the Cisco MC3810 is always 1. There is no port 0 for voice ports.

Enter voice-port configuration mode on a Cisco 2600 or 3600 series router.

Step 3 

Router(config-voiceport)# router(config-voiceport)#

 digits [answer-mode]}

Specify the voice-port connection type and the destination telephone number.

  • plar for private line automatic ringdown

  • tie-line for a tie-line connection to a PBX

  • plar-opx for PLAR off-premises extension (the local voice port provides a local response before the remote voice port receives an answer)

  • trunk for a straight tie-line connection to a PBX

  • answer-mode if a trunk connection is specified and the router should not attempt to initiate a trunk connection, but should wait for an incoming call before establishing the trunk.

  • digits specifies the destination telephone number.

Step 4 

Router(config-voiceport)# voice confirmation-tone

If connection plar or connection plar-opx is configured, enable the two-beep confirmation tone that a caller hears when picking up the handset.

Step 5 

Router(config-voiceport)# dial-type {dtmf | pulse}

(For FXO ports only) Select the appropriate dial type for out-dialing.

Step 6 

Router(config-voiceport)# signal {loop-start |

Caller-ID Configuration Steps

Follow the steps in this section to configure Caller ID on FXS and FXO voice ports.
Command Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# caller-id enable

This command applies to FXS voice ports that send Caller-ID information and to FXO ports that receive it.

By default Caller ID is disabled.

Note If the station name, station number, or a caller-id alerting command is configured on the voice port, these automatically enable Caller ID, and the caller-id enable command is not necessary.

Step 2 

Router(config-voiceport)# station name name

Configure the station name on FXS voice ports connected to user telephone sets. This sets the Caller-ID information for on-net calls originated by the FXS port. You can also configure the station name on an FXO port of a router for which incoming Caller ID from the PSTN subscriber line is expected. In this case, if no Caller-ID information is included on the incoming PSTN call, the call recipient receives the information configured on the FXO port instead. If the PSTN subscriber line does provide Caller-ID information, this information is used and the configured station name is ignored.

name is a character string of 1 to 15 characters identifying the station.

Note This command applies only to Caller-ID calls, not Automatic Number Identification (ANI) calls. ANI supplies calling number identification only.

Step 3 

Router(config-voiceport)# station number number

Configure the station number on FXS voice ports connected to user telephone sets. This sets the Caller-ID information for on-net calls originated by the FXS port.

You can also configure the station number on an FXO port of a router for which incoming Caller ID from the PSTN subscriber line is expected. In this case, if no Caller-ID information is included on the incoming PSTN call, the call recipient receives the information configured on the FXO port instead. If the PSTN subscriber line does provide Caller-ID information, this information is used and the configured station name is ignored.

If the Caller-ID station number is not provided by either the incoming PSTN Caller ID or by the station number configuration, the calling number included with the on-net routed call is determined by Cisco IOS software by using a reverse dial-peer search. In this case, the number is obtained by searching for a POTS dial-peer that refers to the voice-port and the destination-pattern number from that dial-peer is used.

number is a string of 1 to 15 characters identifying the station telephone or extension number.

Step 4 

Router(config-voiceport)# caller-id block

(FXS ports only) When this command is configured at the originating end of a call, it requests that the originating calling party information not be displayed at the called party's telephone.

Note The calling party information is included in the routed on-net call, as this is often required for other purposes, such as billing and call blocking. The request to block display of the calling party information on terminating FXS ports will normally be accepted by Cisco routers, but no guarantee can be made regarding the treatment by other equipment.

This command affects all calls sent to an FXO station from the configured FXS station. The central office (CO) may supply a feature code that a user can dial in order to block Caller-ID transmission on a call-by-call basis.

When a blocked-information call passes through an FXO interface on the way to its destination, the blocking is passed on to the receiving party.

Follow the steps in this section configure the alerting method. Configuration of the alerting method is required when the Caller ID standard, specified by locale through the cptone command, is other than Bellcore/Telcordia (if you do not configure the alerting method, the default caller-id alerting ring 1 command is applied). The command that you enter is determined by the Bellcore/Telcordia or ETSI standard that your service provider uses for Caller ID. For more information about standards, see the "Supported Standards, MIBs, and RFCs" section.
Command Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config)# router(config-voiceport)# caller-id
alerting ring {1 | 2}

Configure this command on FXO ports where Caller-ID information is received from a subscriber telephone line. and on FXS voice ports from which Caller-ID information is transmitted to an attached telephone device.

Compatible settings are required on both ends of the telephone line connection or Caller-ID information may not be displayed.

Enter 1 if your telephone line service provider or telephone device specifies it, to provide or expect Caller-ID information following the first ring at the receiving station. This is the default setting.

Enter 2 to provide or expect Caller-ID information during the long ring pause following two short rings. This setting is used in Australia and the United Kingdom.

Step 2 

Router(config-voiceport)# caller-id alerting
 line-reversal

(FXS ports only) Configure this setting only when the attached telephone device requires line polarity reversal to signal the start of Caller-ID information transmission.

Step 3 

Router(config-voiceport)# caller-id alerting
 dsp-pre-alloc

(FXO ports, only when caller-id alerting line-reversal is required) Configure this command on the FXO port when the incoming subscriber telephone line uses line polarity reversal to signal the start of Caller-ID information transmission.

The Cisco FXO interface cannot detect line-reversal alerting in the on-hook state. For this reason, DSPs must be pre-allocated to serve the Type 1 Caller-ID information when it arrives. Pre-allocating the DSPs enables the DSP to continuously monitor for the arrival of Caller-ID information.

Step 4 

Router(config-voiceport)# caller-id alerting pre-ring

(FXS ports only) Configure this setting only when the attached telephone device requires the pre-ring (immediate ring) method to signal the start of a Caller-ID information. The command activates a 250-ms pre-ring.

Verifying Voice-Port Configuration

To verify voice-port configuration, enter the show voice-port command. You can specify a voice port or view the status of all configured voice ports. In the following example, the specified Cisco MC3810 FXS port is configured with a Bellcore/Telcordia standard (cptone value is northamerica), a station name, and a station number. The caller-id alerting ring setting is 1.

12.1(2)XH

This command was implemented for the Cisco MC3810 and for Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

The caller-id alerting dsp-pre-alloc command may be required on an FXO port if the CO uses line polarity reversal to signal the start of Caller-ID information transmission. Pre-allocating a DSP allows the DSP to listen for Caller-ID information continuously without requiring an alerting signal from the CO.

This command is the FXO counterpart to the caller-id alerting line-reversal command, which is applied to the FXS (sending) end of the Caller-ID call.

This command applies to the Cisco MC3810 and to Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

This command was implemented for Cisco MC3810 and for Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

This command is used on FXS voice ports that are used to originate on-net telephone calls.

This command affects all calls sent to a far end FXS station from the configured originating FXS station.

Calling number and called number are provided in the H.225 setup message for VoIP, through the H.225 Octet 3A field. Calling name information is included in a display information element.

Note Cisco-switched calls using VoFR and VoATM carry calling party information in the Cisco proprietary setup message. For standards-based, point-to-point VoFR (FRF.11) trunks where transparent signaling is applied for FXS-to-FXO calls, only pass-through of in-band Automatic Number Identification (ANI) identification is supported. ANI information is always unblocked for these communications. Interface technology using transparent channel-associated signaling (CAS) can support only ANI through Feature Group D (in-band MF signalling). The Caller ID feature cannot be used with fixed point-to-point trunk connects created using the connection trunk command.

This command applies to the Cisco MC3810 and to Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Examples

The following example configures a Cisco 2600 or 3600 series router voice port from which Caller-ID information is sent:

voice-port 1/0/1
   cptone US
   station name A. Person
   station number 4085551111
   caller-id block

The following example configures a Cisco MC3810 voice port from which Caller-ID information is sent:

voice-port 1/0
   cptone northamerica
   station name A. Person
   station number 4085551111
   caller-id block

12.1(2)XH

This command was implemented for the Cisco MC3810 and for Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

This command applies to FXS voice ports that send Caller ID information and to FXO ports that receive it.

Calling number and called number are provided in the H.225 setup message for VoIP, through the H.225 Octet 3A field. Calling name information is included in a display information element.

Note Cisco-switched calls using VoFR and VoATM carry calling party information in the Cisco proprietary setup message. For standards-based, point-to-point VoFR (FRF.11) trunks where transparent signaling is applied for FXS-to-FXO calls, only pass-through of in-band Automatic Number Identification (ANI) identification is supported. ANI information is always unblocked for these communications. Interface technology using transparent channel-associated signaling (CAS) can support only ANI through Feature Group D (in-band MF signalling). The Caller ID feature cannot be used with fixed point-to-point trunk connects created using the connection trunk command.

If the station name, station number, or a caller-id alerting command is configured on the voice port, these automatically enable Caller ID, and the caller-id enable command is not necessary.

This command applies to the Cisco MC3810 and to Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

12.1(2)XH

This command was implemented for Cisco MC3810 and for Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

This optional command is configured on FXS voice ports that are used to originate on-net calls. The information entered is displayed by the telephone attached to the FXS port at the far end of the on-net call. It can also be configured on the FXO port of a router on which Caller ID information is expected to be received from the CO, to suit situations where a call is placed from the CO, then goes through the FXO interface, and continues to a far-end FXS port through an on-net call. In this case, if no Caller ID information is received from the CO telephone line, the far-end call recipient receives the information configured on the FXO port.

Note This feature applies only to Caller ID name display provided by an FXS port connection to a telephone device. The station name will not be passed through telephone trunk connections supporting Automatic Number Identification (ANI) calls. ANI supplies calling number identification only and does not support calling number names.

Do not use this command when the Caller-ID standard is dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF). DTMF Caller ID can carry only the calling number.

If the station name, station number, or a caller-id alerting command is configured on the voice port, these automatically enable Caller-ID, and the caller-id enable command is not necessary.

This command applies to the Cisco MC3810 and to Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers.

Examples
