Hairpinning on FXO ports stay-up

We have this occasional problem in one of our remote sites. It seems (based from the "show call active" output below) that when a user hairpinned and call another FXO user on the same router/gateway, the call will stay-up indefinitely. Any ideas?

Telephony call-legs: 1

SIP call-legs: 0

H323 call-legs: 1

Call agent controlled call-legs: 0

Hi Robert,

This is one of the ways that FXO disconnect supervision manifests. To test - call an IP phone through your FXO port. Hang up on the FXO side. The call will stay up indefinitely.

You need to figure out how to get the disconnect supervision from your provider to work.

This link is a good starting place:

hth,

nick

Thanks Nick for the reply. I do not have this disconnect problem when the router is calling from POTS (via FXO) - VOIP. It's only POTS - POTS.

I've read some old threads on the forum having a similar problem, and they disabled local-bypass ("no local-bypass) on the voice card as their work-around.

Have put that on mine, but it's a bit early to determine if it really fix the problem.

Regards,

Robert

Hi Robert,

That's very odd. Nearly 98% of the time this is a manifestation of disconnect supervision.

Most people overlook the fact that the only reason the FXO port is ever disconnecting is because the IP phone hangs up.

Are you sure that your phone calls disconnect if the IP phone doesn't hang up?

-nick

Yup. I actually have that disconnect problem (FXO-VoIP) before when I'm starting this project. The FXO port will stay "off-hook" even if the other end hangs-up, but this config fix it:

voice-port 0/0/0

supervisory disconnect dualtone mid-call

no battery-reversal

cptone IT

timeouts call-disconnect 5

timeouts wait-release 5

impedance complex2

But again, it's a bit early to say that disabling local-bypass will fix the FX0-FX0 problem as specified on the previous thread.

Regards,

Robert

I wouldn't suspect for local bypass to fix this. DSPs have done less weird things, however.

It may be possible to run FXO debugs to see if we're getting the disconnect and ignoring it (which would have to be the case if there isn't a normal FXO disconnect issue), but it doesn't sound like something you're able to recreate.

hth,

nick

Yes, the router's in Europe and it's a bit difficult to re-create. I'm just waiting for someone to do an FXO-FXO call transfer again.

But enabling the FXO debug *now* will be smart, just in case. What the best debug command for this?

Thanks,

Robert

debug vpm signal

Thanks Nick. I'll enable that and in case the problem returns, will post the "show log" here.

Regards,

Robert
