New and Changed Information

The following sections list the new hardware and software features supported by the Cisco 800 series for Release 12.1 T:

New Software Features in Release 12.1(3)XG

The following sections list the new software features supported by the Cisco Cisco 800 Series Routers for Release 12.1(3)XG.

Prefix Dialing

Cisco 803 and Cisco 804 routers now support prefix dialing. You can add a telephone prefix and create a prefix filter to the dialed number for analog telephone calls. When a telephone number is dialed through the telephone port, the router checks for prefix filters. If the router finds a match, no prefix is added to the dialed number. If no filter match is found, the router adds the user-defined prefix to the called number.

Configuring a Prefix Number

To set a prefix to be added to a telephone number called, use the Cisco IOS pots prefix number command in global configuration mode:

pots prefix number number

no pots prefix number

where number is a prefix number from one to five digits in length. Only one prefix can be configured at a time, and configuring a new number overwrites the existing one.

The following example sets the prefix number to 12345:

router# configure terminal
router(config)# pots prefix number 12345
Configuring a Prefix Filter

You can configure a prefix filter that is compared to the digits that you dial. If a match occurs, the prefix number is not added to the called number. To create a prefix filter, use the pots prefix filter command in global configuration mode:

pots prefix filter number

no pots prefix filter number

where number is a prefix filter from one to eight digits in length. You can define up to ten filters for your router. If you have reached the maximum number of filters defined, no new filter configurations are accepted until you remove at least one existing filter number using the no pots prefix filter number command.

The following are examples of how to set prefix filters:

router# configure terminal
router(config)# pots prefix filter 192
router(config)# pots prefix filter 1
router(config)# pots prefix filter 9
router(config)# pots prefix filter 0800
router(config)# pots prefix filter 08456

Supplementary Telephone Services for the Euro-ISDN Switch

The Cisco 800 series routers now support the following plain old telephone service (POTS) features for the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) Euro-ISDN switch type:


Note   The Euro-ISDN switch was previously called the Net3 switch.

Requirements for Supplementary Telephone Services Support

You must subscribe to the following Euro-ISDN switch services for these supplementary telephone services to work:

For information about configuring caller ID calls, see the Cisco IOS documentation set.

Configuring Caller ID for the Euro-ISDN Switch

To enable caller ID on the Euro-ISDN switch for the Nordic countries (Denmark, Sweden, and Finland), configure the country type by using the Cisco IOS pots country command in global configuration mode:

pots country {denmark | finland | sweden}

To verify if caller ID is enabled, use the show pots status command. The following is an example of the output for the command:

router# show pots status
 
POTS Global Configuration:
 
   Country:Denmark
 
   Dialing Method:Overlap, Tone Source:Local, CallerId Support:YES
		----------------------
   Out Going Hunt:Disabled

Note   Caller ID for Denmark, Sweden, and Finland is always enabled, provided the POTS country type is correctly defined as one of them. Caller ID cannot be disabled using the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI).

Call Forwarding for the Euro-ISDN Switch

The following types of call forwarding services (for voice calls only) are supported on the Euro-ISDN switch:

You can select one or more call forwarding services at a time. However, CFU has higher precedence over CFB and CFNR. If all the three are enabled, CFU overrides CFB and CFNR. The default setting is that no forwarding type is selected.


Note   If you had configured call forwarding for a POTS port and the router finds that a dial peer is also configured for that port, call forwarding works only for the number defined in the destination-pattern dial peer command and ignores all other numbers for that telephone. If the router does not find a dial peer or if the destination-pattern is not defined, call forwarding works for all numbers allocated to that telephone.

To enable and configure this feature, follow these steps:


Step 1   Enable and select the call forwarding method. See "Configuring the Call Forwarding Method."

Step 2   Configure your call forwarding service, depending on which method you selected:


Configuring the Call Forwarding Method

You can select the method by which the call forwarding feature is controlled as follows:

To enable the call forwarding method, use the Cisco IOS pots forwarding-method command in global configuration mode:

pots forwarding-method {functional | keypad}

[no] pots forwarding-method


Note   Use the pots forwarding-method command only if the switch is a Euro-ISDN switch type. This command does not work for other switch types. This feature is disabled in the default setting.

The following example configures the call forwarding feature to give control to the router:

router# configure terminal
router(config)# pots forwarding-method functional

Configuring the Call Forwarding Service

Table 9 shows the DTMF keypad command sequence that you enter to configure the call forwarding service.


Table 9: Configuring the Call Forwarding Service
Task DTMF Keypad Command

Activate CFU

**21*number#

where number is the telephone number to which your calls are forwarded

Deactivate CFU

#21#

Activate CFNR

**61*number#

where number is the telephone number to which your calls are forwarded

Deactivate CFNR

#61#

Activate CFB

**67*number#

where number is the telephone number to which your calls are forwarded

Deactivate CFB

#67#

When you enable or disable the call-forwarding service, it is enabled or disabled for four basic services (speech, audio at 3.1 kilohertz, telephony at 3.1 kilohertz, and telephony at 7 kilohertz). You should hear a dial tone after you enter the DTMF command if the call-forwarding service is successfully enabled or disabled for at least one of the four basic services. If you hear a busy tone, the command is invalid or the switch does not support any of the four basic services.

Displaying POTS Status

Use the show pots status command to display details of the call forwarding type. This status is not stored across reboots. The following is an example of the screen output:

router# show pots status
 
POTS Global Configuration:
Country:Denmark
Dialing Method:Overlap, Tone Source:Local, CallerId Support:YES
Out Going Hunt:Disabled
Forwarding Method:functional method
-------------------------------------
 
Call Forwarding status:
 
The Forwarding Method Enabled is CFU
 
The forwarded to Address is     :33236877
The served user Number(s) are   :33795742
 
The Forwarding Method Enabled is CFB
 
The forwarded to Address is     :33236877
The served user Number(s) are   :
    ALL -> Will work for all numbers allocated to the terminal.

Configuring CLIR

Configure CLIR by following these steps:


Step 1   Ensure that CLIR in temporary mode is enabled in the Euro-ISDN switch.

Step 2   Remove handset and press **31# on the keypad.

Step 3   Listen for the dial tone and then make your call.

Step 4   Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for each outgoing call for which you wish to restrict your calling identification.



Note   The command **31# DTMF only has an effect if the switch is a Euro-ISDN switch type. This DTMF command does not have any effect on other switch types.

PPP over Ethernet Support on Cisco 820 Series Routers

Cisco IOS Release 12.1(3)XG running on Cisco 827 and Cisco 827-4V routers supports a PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) client on an ATM permanent virtual circuit (PVC). Only one PPPoE client on a single ATM PVC is supported. The following figure depicts a typical deployment scenario for PPPoE support:


Figure 1: PPPoE Deployment Scenario

A PPPoE session is initiated on the client side by the network described above. If the session has a timeout or is disconnected, the PPPoE client immediately attempts to reestablish the session.

Follow these steps to configure the router for PPPoE client support:


Step 1   Configure the vpdn group number.

Step 2   Configure the ATM interface with PPPoE support.

Step 3   Configure the dialer interface by entering the int dialer number command.

Step 4   Configure a dialer list corresponding to the dialer-group by entering the dialer-list 1 protocol ip permit command.


Note   There can be multiple PPPoE clients, each running on different PVCs, in which case each client has to use a separate dialer interface and a separate dialer pool, and the PPP parameters need to be applied on the dialer interface.

If you enter the clear vpdn tunnel pppoe command with a PPPoE client session already established, the PPPoE client session terminates and the PPPoE client immediately tries to reestablish the session.

Configuration Example

The following example shows the configuration of a PPPoE client.

vpdn enable
vpdn-group 1
	request-dialin
protocol pppoe
 
int atm0
 
pvc 1/100
	pppoe-client dial-pool-number 1
 
int dialer 1
ip address negotiated
ppp authentication chap
dialer pool 1
dialer-group 1
 

Cisco 820 Supported Features

The Cisco 820 series routers now support firewall, IPSec, and 3DES features.

Cisco IOS Firewall Feature Set for Cisco 820 Series Routers

The Cisco IOS Firewall feature set is now available on the Cisco 820 series routers. This feature set provides the following capabilities:

The Cisco IOS Firewall Feature Set feature module provides several sample firewall configurations, including the following examples for small-office environments:

IPSec and 3DES Feature Set for Cisco 820 Series Routers

The Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) feature is now available on the Cisco 820 series routers. IPSec is a framework of open standards developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) that provides security for transmission of sensitive information over unprotected networks such as the Internet. It acts at the network level and implements the following standards:

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) services are similar to those provided by Cisco Encryption Technology (CET), a proprietary security solution introduced in Cisco IOS Software Release 11.2. (The IPSec standard was not yet available at Release 11.2.) It provides network data encryption at the IP packet level and implements the following standards:

IPSec provides a more robust security solution and is standards-based. IPSec also provides data authentication and anti-replay services in addition to data confidentiality services, while CET provides only data-confidentiality services.

The following component technologies implemented for IPSec:

Triple Data Encryption Standard Feature Set for Cisco 820 Series Routers

The Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) Cisco IOS feature is now available on Cisco 820 series routers. This feature encrypts packet data. Cisco IOS implements the mandatory 56-bit DES-Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) with an Explicit initialization vector (IV).

Cisco 820 Series Router Supported MIBs

The following MIBs are supported by the Cisco 820 series routers, including the Cisco 827 and Cisco 827-4V routers:

Important Notes

The following sections contain important notes about Cisco IOS Release 12.1(3)XG that can apply to the Cisco 800 Series Routers. (Also, see the "Caveats" section.)

B Channel Activation

When a call comes in, a B channel is activated. If the amount of traffic on the B channel exceeds a threshold, the other B channel is activated. If the amount of traffic falls below the threshold, one of the B channels is deactivated. The B channel that is initially activated when the call comes in is not necessarily B1 nor is the B channel that is deactivated when the traffic level lessens necessarily B2.

Cisco 800 Series Router Clock—CSCdp09409

To run IPSec successfully, the Cisco 800 series router clock needs to be set accurately. Cisco 800 series router clocks are set and maintained using Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP). For best results, set up a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to periodically send time information messages to Cisco 800 series routers. See the SNTP configuration and command reference documentation for configuration instructions. If you do not have an NTP server, you must reset the Cisco 800 series router clock using the clock set command each time you restart the router.

The SNTP configuration documentation is available in the chapter "Monitoring the Router and Network" volume of the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration   Guide  in the Cisco IOS documentation set. The SNTP command reference documentation is available in the chapter "Router and Network Monitoring Commands" in the "System Management Commands"  volume of the Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference  manual of the Cisco IOS documentation set.

Cisco 800 Series Router Enhancements

Cisco 800 series routers support the following features. For more information about these features, see the Cisco IOS documentation set.

CiscoView Application Support

The CiscoView application supports the Cisco 800 series routers. The CiscoView application provides dynamic status, statistics, and comprehensive configuration information for Cisco switches, routers, concentrators, and adapters. It displays a graphical view of Cisco devices. This network management tool also provides configuring and monitoring functions and offers basic troubleshooting tips.

Dial Peer Limitation

The isdn answer1 and isdn answer2 commands determine which called telephone numbers, for example, 555-1111 and 555-2222, a Cisco 800 series router can answer. Using these commands limits a router to using the two dial peers that contain the telephone numbers 555-1111 and 555-2222. (When not using these commands, a router can use up to six dial peers.) A sample scenario in which the isdn answer1 and isdn answer2 commands are used is when a Cisco 801 or Cisco 803 router is connected with other ISDN devices to an ISDN S-bus.

Downloading Images

Before attempting to download new images, you must first delete files in the router Flash memory. Be sure to use the delete command, not command erase, to free up space. Entering erase removes all files, including the configuration.

Excessive ISDN Line Activation

The following protocols send updates that can cause an ISDN line to be activated excessively, thereby increasing your monthly ISDN line cost:

See the Cisco 800 Series Routers Software Configuration Guide to set up extended access lists to prevent IP, UDP, IPX, and SNTP updates from activating the ISDN line. For CDP, make certain that you enter the no cdp enable command to disable CDP.

Hanging During Boot

If an illegal console configuration is issued to the router, the console fails the POST tests during boot and causes the router to halt. The only way to recover from this state is to pull apart the soldered boot Flash and re-burn the Boot ROM. This problem has been resolved in TinyROM version 1.0(3), a downloadable ROM upgrade available from CCO. Contact Cisco to upgrade to this version or later, and to prevent this problem from occurring.

ISDN NI1 Provisioning

If you have any problems with your ISDN NI1 provisioning, visit the Cisco ISDN Web site at http://www.cisco.com/isdn.

Multilink PPP and Interleaving

Multilink PPP fragments large data packets so that small voice packets can be interleaved within them. However, apart from first-in-first-out (FIFO) queuing, no other kind of output queuing mechanisms are currently supported with PPP over ATM. Consequently, when multilink PPP is configured on the Cisco 827 routers, the big packets are fragmented, but interleaving of small voice packets within them does not occur.

NAT Support for H.323 Signaling

Currently, NAT does not support alerting H.225 messages. Therefore, NAT communication cannot be established between the router end points. NAT support for H.323 signaling is limited to the Netmeeting application.

Phone Mate Answering Machine Model 9200

A Phone Mate answering machine model 9200 fails to recognize the ringing signal sent by AMD R79 ringing SLIC. This was confirmed by testing against Phone Mate model 3750 and newer model 9300.

PPP over Frame Relay Support (RFC-1973)

Cisco 800 series routers do not support PPP protocol over Frame Relay.

TACACS+ with AAA

Cisco 800 series routers support the Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) protocol through Telnet. TACACS+ is a Cisco proprietary authentication protocol that provides remote access authentication and related network security services, such as event logging. User passwords are administered in a central database, rather than in individual routers. TACACS+ also supports separate modular authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) facilities that are configured at individual routers.

For information on how to configure TACACS+, refer to the "Configuring TACACS+"  chapter in the Security Configuration Guide . For information on TACACS+ commands, refer to the "TACACS,   Extended TACACS, and TACACS+ Commands"  chapter in the Security Command Reference

Cisco 800 series routers do not support the following protocols:

ROM Monitor set stop-bits Parameter

This release supports the setting of 1 only, for the ROM monitor set stop-bits parameter.

Caveats

Caveats describe unexpected behavior or defects in Cisco IOS software releases. Severity 1 caveats are the most serious caveats, severity 2 caveats are less serious, and severity 3 caveats are the least serious of these three severity levels.

All caveats in Release 12.1(2)T are also in Release 12.1(3)XG. For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.1(2)T, refer to the Caveats for Cisco IOS Release 12.1 T document. For information on caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.1, refer to the Caveats for Cisco IOS   Release  12.1  document. These publications list severity 1 and 2 caveats, and are located on CCO and the Documentation CD-ROM.


Note   If you have an account with CCO, you can use Bug Navigator II to find caveats of any severity for any release. You can reach Bug Navigator II on CCO at Software Center: Cisco IOS Software: BUG TOOLKIT: Cisco Bug Navigator II, or at http://www.cisco.com/support/bugtools/bugtool.shtml.

Caveats for Release 12.1(3)XG

This section describes possibly unexpected behavior by Release 12.1(3)XG.

Miscellaneous

  A Cisco 800 series router running a PPPoE client configured from a dialer interface might encounter packet loss while trying to route IPX traffic or might not route IPX packets at all during the PPPoE session. To work around this problem, configure the IPX network as network X on the dialer interface.
  A Cisco 800 router running a PPPoE client that is performing multilink PPP might fail to establish a session. There is no known workaround.
  For IPSec to work properly on some IPSec interfaces, fast switching must be explicitly disabled by entering the commands no ip route-cache and no ip mroute-cache. This might impact IPSec functionality under certain encapsulation modes.
  For example, if you use a dialer interface to configure PPP over ATM encapsulation or PPP over Ethernet encapsulation and apply IPSec to the interface, fast switching must be explicitly disabled for IPSec to work. For a bridge group virtual interface to function properly as an IPSec interface, fast switching must also be disabled. IPSec works properly with fast switching enabled when applied on other interfaces, such as ATM or virtual interfaces.
  Fast switching is automatically enabled by default. To work around this problem, disable fast switching on IPSec interfaces.
  After successfully getting certificates and enrolled in a CA server, in config mode the command no crypto ca certificate chain entrust generates the message "WARNING! Illegal read access".
  If you specify the command no ip route-cache for an ATM interface that IPSec is using on both ends of an IPSec tunnel and have a Pagent traffic generator to generate traffic through IPSec tunnel, the following error is generated with traceback messages:
    SYS-2-MALLOCFAIL : memory allocation of 1684 bytes 
    failed from 0x800AE838: pool I/O, alignment: 4. 
     
    
  The workaround is to specify the command ip route-cache in the router configuration for the IPSec interface that has a configured encryption map.
  The Cisco 800 series router CSM stops dialing to the network if the fist digit is an asterisk (*). This prevents users (in Finland) from using CO features.
  Cisco 800 series routers do not reject a second incoming voice call when incoming voice priority is set to conditional, and the second data call is not bumped when isdn voice-priority local-directory-number out always is set on both of the POTS ports.
