Is hairpinning calls using 1 PRI in Cisco gateway possible?

Hi All,

I am trying to hairpin calls using 1 PRI in cisco gateway,

call flow

1. call comes in to gateway using PRI port 0/1 with the called number 456xxx.

2. I am matching the call using incoming pots dial-peer and then translating the 456xxx number to 654xxx number and then match an outgoing pots dial-peer and send the call out of the same PRI.

Is this call flow possible? gateway is running H323.

Thanks

Milan, you are correct. The commands are not necessary for PSTN to PSTN calls.

However, +5 point to Rob for his continued relentless help!

Very much possible .

You can use num-exp rather than translation-profile for minimal configuration (if it doesn't affect any other config).

HTH.

Hi Arvind,

Just to add a note to the good tips from Mijanur (+5 points "M")

You will need these commands

voice service voip

h323

allow-connections h323 to h323

Cheers!

Thanks @Rob.


But I have a confusion, this is not a IP to IP call (like the concept we have for CUBE), here both of the ingress and outgress calls are over PRI i.e. over TDM channel, do we really need this 'allow-connection' command for this case?

Thanks again!

Hi All,

Thanks for all your reply, I am getting an assertion failure message when i try to hairpin calls.

I can see calls coming in to the gateway by matching incoming dial-peer and then the called number gets translated and matches the outbound dial-peer but the calls are not going out of PRI. I am getting an assertion failure message after matching the outbound pots dial-peer..

Please suggest.

Thanks,

Update IOS.

It's my honor to having both of you here, +5 for you too sir for both of your continuous contributions.

@aravindhanelango: please post your running-config, 'sh isdn status' and 'debug isdn q931' while failing the call.

Hi All,

I was able to simulate the hairpinning with different gateway running same IOS and with same configuration.

It seems i was hitting a bug with that gateway.

Thanks for all your help..

Please find the config which i used...

I have also attached the Q931 debug for a successful call.

So you got your answer, it's the IOS.

Try to get next/previous release of your IOS, please read the known issues first before downloading it from CCO.
