Thank you for your reply.

I'm new to the UC500 and CME platform in a lot of ways (coming from full server-based CallManager), so I might be missing something here. This is what I see from the command line:

Before Config:

#sh dsp

DSPFARM Configuration Information:

Admin State: DOWN, Oper Status: DOWN - Cause code: ADMIN_STATE_DOWN

Transcoding Sessions: 0(Avail: 0), Conferencing Sessions: 0 (Avail: 0)

Trans sessions for mixed-mode conf: 0 (Avail: 0), RTP Timeout: 600

Connection check interval 600 Codec G729 VAD: ENABLED

Config (start):

dsp services dspfarm

After Config:

#sh dspfarm ?

all Display all DSPFARM global info

dsp Display DSPFARM DSPs information

profile Display DSPFARM profiles

#sh dspfarm all

Total number of DSPFARM DSP channel(s) 0

#sh dspfarm dsp active

Total number of DSPFARM DSP channel(s) 0

Am I on the right track?

Thanks,

Dennis.

Here's the config I use in a customer install, to support 2 x 8 parties G.711 conferencing only. There is only one set of ephone-dn for conference configured. The remember to cofngire the meet-me softkey in ephone-template.

Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!

Thank you very much for this. I will give it a try and let you know how I make out.

Picking this up again after some time and for a different customer location... this config really did help. Thank you.

Paolo,

This configuration also helped me, with a problem I had with the dspfarm not registering with SCCP on a UC500, except that I am using multi-party ad-hoc instead of meet me conference.

Everything now looks fine but when the folks press the Confrn softkey they get a message "no line available". The only thing I haven't tried is resetting the entire system.

I've attached the whole configuration in case there is something I've missed, but I think I have covered everything I could find in the documentation. If you could look through it when you have the time I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Mike
