modify option ping response from cube

[peterputt]

Hi all

Our Provider for the SIP trunks want us to do the following:

If the CUBE that terminates the trunk from the provider can’t reach a CUCM anymore, it should answer to the option ping of the provider with a “503” or similar – so the provider can route to another CUBE before sending a INVITE Message…

I tried with the “voice-class sip options-keepalive” to “busy-out” the dial peer facing to the CUCM, but even if there is no valid dialpeer anymore, it still resonse to the ping...

Any Idea how we can achieve this?

Thanks in advance
Peter

I am not sure how will achieve that. CUBE is not designed to use options ping like that. If CUBE can't reach the cucm server, using options ping it takes down the dial peer to that cucm and sends the call to another cucm, if one is available. This is independent of what is happening between cube and itsp. If the link to the itsp is not down, cube won't send 503 to ITSP...that will be wrong...
