  • 0:00:13 Ok, so we're back and we are going to take a look at our
    0:00:20 demonstration. We're still with H.323 gatekeepers.
    0:00:25 But we we're going to take a look into remote gatekeepers.
    0:00:31 So sending LRQs and we remember the slides that we looked at a little bit earlier
    0:00:39 in relation to how we look up remote gatekeepers.
    0:00:42 Anyone remember how we are going to route a call to a remote gatekeeper
    0:00:47 based on our ARQ flow chart?
    0:00:54 And I'll bring that back up while anyone's wagering a guess on that
    0:00:59 or hopefully not a guess, but remembering.
    0:01:04 I'll just bring it back up here.
    0:01:07 For sending an LRQ
    0:01:09 we see that we can do it with a tech prefix match that happens to be
    0:01:14 of the special type hop-off tech prefix.
    0:01:17 That's one way.
    0:01:19 And another way is if a zone prefix is matched
    0:01:25 the target zone or destination equals whatever that matched zone
    0:01:28 was and the answer to 'is the target zone local?'
    0:01:32 is no, so it's a remote zone, a destination or target zone
    0:01:38 was matched, but it's not local, it's remote.
    0:01:41 So we're going to send an LRQ. Those are the two LRQ
    0:01:44 output branches that we have here on our flow chart for
    0:01:47 an admission request.
    0:01:48 Try to look up the destination of a call.
    0:01:50 Ok, so what we're going to take a look at is...
    0:01:59 First of all, let's switch over to our corporate headquarter Router 1
    0:02:04 and let's begin -- let's first do a sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:02:10 and let's add to what we have here.
    0:02:15 Let's add a remote zone.
    0:02:18 So we've got three zone locals. We had zone SEA which originally
    0:02:23 had CUCM Pub and Sub registered as gateways.
    0:02:28 And then we had zone AMS for Amsterdam which was
    0:02:31 the local zone that had the CME router registered to it.
    0:02:36 And then we had zone local CUBE which was
    0:02:39 the border element or IP-to-IP gateway
    0:02:41 that was here on box on the corporate headquarter Router 1
    0:02:46 We'll remember that towards the end of our example and demonstration
    0:02:51 yesterday we moved zone, sorry we moved the CME
    0:02:55 out of zone AMS and moved it into SEA in order to take a look at
    0:03:00 single zone potential problems that could exist with routing a call
    0:03:06 to -- I should say looping a call back to the gateway that
    0:03:12 was the originating gateway.
    0:03:14 So the gatekeeper selecting the terminating gateway
    0:03:17 as the same as the originating gateway.
    0:03:19 And we looked at how to overcome that with gateway
    0:03:22 priority zero or never route to these particular gateway, these
    0:03:27 H.323 IDs based on well, 3000 numbers don't live there.
    0:03:33 Now again remember that our 3000 numbers are only temporarily
    0:03:38 over on CME. We're actually invoking SRST right now.
    0:03:43 In a real lab exam or even any sort of mock lab or multiprotocol lab
    0:03:49 that you would get from any vendor, you wouldn't have
    0:03:51 CME in usage with gatekeeper if that CME were used in SRST.
    0:03:59 We're only doing it for the sake of demonstration
    0:04:02 because we will be using phones back at our corporate headquarters
    0:04:08 for the rest of our situation.
    0:04:12 I mean I suppose you could. We obviously have made it work
    0:04:15 it's not an impossibility to make work,
    0:04:18 but it's unlikely mainly because even if you could move a
    0:04:25 partition around like we did so that the 3001
    0:04:29 is not more favorable or even if you created a more specific
    0:04:32 or same specific route pattern and put it in a higher partition
    0:04:35 which we're going to talk about in just a bit with
    0:04:39 dial plan and the basics
    0:04:42 you would still have to create some sort of access control list
    0:04:44 because you couldn't as you would in the real lab you would just
    0:04:47 down the serial interface in order to cause a disruption
    0:04:52 in the WAN to invoke SRST
    0:04:56 you wouldn't be able to do that and still have H.323
    0:05:00 or RAS VoIP, IP being the keyword there, communications
    0:05:05 between your remote site and between your corporate headquarter
    0:05:11 or gatekeeper wherever it may lie.
    0:05:16 Ok, so unless they had that ACL type thing there, it's doubtful that you would
    0:05:21 experience something like that. You would more likely experience
    0:05:24 from the outset, a topology where CME was standalone and the phones
    0:05:28 were always registered over there at the CME
    0:05:31 or you would experience a situation where all your phones
    0:05:37 at all sites were registered to CUCM in which case you wouldn't
    0:05:39 have gatekeeper to sites that you control.
    0:05:44 You might have however what we're about to look at which is
    0:05:47 gatekeeper between your CUCM and a remote or backbone gatekeeper.
    0:05:53 Ok, so let's go ahead and jump into our config t and gatekeeper
    0:05:59 subcommand and we're going to create a zone remote.
    0:06:05 Ok, so we're going to create a zone remote and we're going to
    0:06:10 take a look at...
    0:06:15 By the way, we're not going to have time really to cover cluster today.
    0:06:19 If you do want information on clustering, we do cover alternate
    0:06:23 gatekeepers and the GUP Gatekeeper Update Protocol
    0:06:26 in our deep dive series. We've already looked at local, prefix
    0:06:30 zone prefix, we're about to do a zone remote.
    0:06:34 The only other thing we haven't done is zone subnet.
    0:06:36 Actually let's just cover that real quick.
    0:06:40 If I do sh gatekeeper end points
    0:06:45 I can see that my Pub and Sub are registered to zone SEA.
    0:06:51 And I have their signaling and RAS IP addresses.
    0:06:55 And my CME is registered to SEA.
    0:06:59 And my local corporate headquarter router
    0:07:02 IP-to-IP gateway is registered to the CUBE zone.
    0:07:05 With zone subnet, it's a security command
    0:07:10 and if you're at all familiar with access control lists
    0:07:15 in IOS and hopefully you are. They're very useful for a myriad of things.
    0:07:22 With ACLs, there's always an implicit deny any any
    0:07:28 at the end of every access control list.
    0:07:30 Whether you explicitly define it so that it shows up
    0:07:34 or add options to it like deny IP any any log
    0:07:38 or log input or what have you
    0:07:41 or whether you don't do anything at all and you just have a permit TCP
    0:07:47 any any 22 to allow destination SSH for instance.
    0:07:53 There's always a deny any any as the last line.
    0:07:58 Ok, sort of similar to the fact that there's always the null
    0:08:02 entity as the last entity within any CUCM container.
    0:08:08 So there's always a null partition within every calling search space.
    0:08:13 So with gatekeeper and zone subnet
    0:08:18 it's actually sort of the opposite way around.
    0:08:20 And it's not process like an access control list which is top-down.
    0:08:24 It's more looked at like partitions within a calling search space where
    0:08:30 within a given calling search space we look at all of the partitions
    0:08:34 including the none or null partition to see what is the best match.
    0:08:39 These zone subnet commands are similar to an access control list
    0:08:43 in some regards, but essentially in the functionality of what they block
    0:08:48 and allow, but they are more like partitions in the sense that they are
    0:08:55 not ordered top down or searched top down, they are
    0:09:00 all looked at and then decided is there a good or best match.
    0:09:05 Ok, and we have to first explicitly deny everything
    0:09:11 if we want to then exclusively include any one gateway or subnet
    0:09:21 or terminal, so the whole idea is that we are restricting
    0:09:26 who is even allowed to register with us.
    0:09:29 Ok, so let's say zone subnet
    0:09:31 and the gatekeeper name or zone name.
    0:09:34 So gatekeeper name SEA or zone name SEA.
    0:09:38 And we're going to use the default to begin with, so all subnets or all
    0:09:42 'other' subnets. 'Other' is a great keyword here.
    0:09:45 Other than what we are about to later specify, so zone subnet
    0:09:53 SEA default enable
    0:09:56 and what we're actually going to say is no.
    0:09:59 So here's what we're saying
    0:10:02 and actually if I just go ahead and hit enter without the no
    0:10:05 do sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:10:11 Notice that that doesn't show up because that's the default.
    0:10:15 Ok, so that is, the default is
    0:10:18 by default enable all subnets within the zone SEA.
    0:10:24 Allow all subnets or all hosts to register.
    0:10:28 So if I issue that command again, but I jumped to the beginning of the line
    0:10:32 and put the 'no' keyword in there
    0:10:35 and hit enter, then do sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:10:39 We see that actually show up
    0:10:42 and we're saying, 'By default do not enable any subnets within the zone of Seattle.'
    0:10:51 Now what this is going to do
    0:10:55 do sh gatekeeper end points
    0:10:58 is that at the next light-weight re-registration
    0:11:02 we are actually -- in fact do debug ras
    0:11:10 Now these gateways are already registered, so if we do a shut
    0:11:15 and then a no shut
    0:11:17 and we're sending unregistration messages to all the gatekeepers.
    0:11:28 Ok, so we've no shut the gatekeeper.
    0:11:31 It's back on.
    0:11:35 Currently we have no end points.
    0:11:37 And we're going to wait to see registration requests
    0:11:43 come from these end points.
    0:11:45 We could speed it up by going over here to Router 3
    0:11:48 and say no gateway, gateway
    0:11:54 And here we get
    0:11:58 let's go back up
    0:12:00 we get a gatekeeper request received
    0:12:02 from .3
    0:12:04 and we've sent a gateway rejection to .3
    0:12:08 because we've said, 'No subnets are allowed.'
    0:12:11 We also get one from .1 which is the CUBE here locally.
    0:12:16 Ok, and we've said gatekeeper confirm.
    0:12:19 We've allowed .1 to register.
    0:12:22 We'll take a look at why in just a moment.
    0:12:25 Ok, then we have -- actually allow just to see into
    0:12:29 peer into our operations, then we get the registration request from .1
    0:12:33 and we also send the registration confirm
    0:12:37 and give some information.
    0:12:40 Gatekeeper CUBE has registered with the gatekeeper.
    0:12:44 So let's see what's next.
    0:12:46 Here we go.
    0:12:48 Gatekeeper request from .3 and a rejection.
    0:12:51 And here is registration request from .20
    0:12:57 and RRJ or Registration Rejection
    0:13:00 same thing, registration request and
    0:13:02 rejection from .10
    0:13:05 So if we look at gatekeeper end points, we only got CUBE registered.
    0:13:09 Now why did CUBE register?
    0:13:11 Let's do undebug or do
    0:13:14 undebug all
    0:13:16 and let's do sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:13:20 So why did CUBE register? Because we said, 'For the zone SEA
    0:13:26 don't by default allow any subnets.'
    0:13:30 But CUBE is registered in CUBE.
    0:13:32 Why didn't CME register? Because we took it out of AMS
    0:13:35 and we put it in SEA last.
    0:13:37 So now what we can do is we can say zone subnet SEA
    0:13:45 not default, but we're going to say specifically an IP network.
    0:13:49 Let's say 177.1.10.0/24 enable
    0:14:01 I think we have to do /24 as part of it, then enable
    0:14:05 which is accept gatekeeper request and registration request from that subnet.
    0:14:10 Ok, let's do debug ras
    0:14:14 Let's look at our end points.
    0:14:17 Actually let's look at our configuration.
    0:14:20 So we've got the no subnet
    0:14:23 whoops let me scroll back up
    0:14:24 no subnet by default enable
    0:14:29 I think I scrolled up too far there.
    0:14:31 There we go.
    0:14:32 No subnet by default enable, but do allow the subnet of
    0:14:36 177.1.10.0/24 or 255.255.255.0
    0:14:46 Notice we're still rejecting .3
    0:14:49 but pretty soon... here we go.
    0:14:52 No, are those them?
    0:14:55 No that's the light-weight re-registration from the IP-to-IP gateway.
    0:15:00 Let's look at the end points.
    0:15:03 Ok, CUCM Pub and Sub still have not come back.
    0:15:06 We could log in and force their hand real quick by doing a trunk.
    0:15:14 Find
    0:15:15 trunk called CUCM and let's just reset that real briefly.
    0:15:25 And actually let's go reset the gatekeeper as well.
    0:15:38 Here we go, we've got some 20 RCF registration confirm.
    0:15:44 So let's look at our end points again.
    0:15:47 And we've got the Pub and Sub registered.
    0:15:51 CUBE is in a different zone, we do not have CME.
    0:15:53 Let's do undebug all.
    0:15:55 And now we're going to do
    0:15:58 pretty much the same command.
    0:15:59 For zone SEA let's do 177.1.254 let's just do the host of .3
    0:16:07 so instead of /24 which wouldn't be a good subnet mask for .3
    0:16:11 it would be a good subnet mask for .0
    0:16:15 But let's do .3/32 so we're only going to allow or enable a particular host.
    0:16:22 And we'll say no gateway.
    0:16:26 And gateway.
    0:16:27 And we're instantly going to see that it registered
    0:16:32 back on the corporate headquarter gateway.
    0:16:35 do sh gatekeeper end points
    0:16:37 and we see that .3 registered.
    0:16:40 And we could turn off for CUBE
    0:16:43 the default certainly.
    0:16:49 Let's do...
    0:16:53 Let's do no zone subnet
    0:16:57 CUBE enable
    0:16:59 by default and then
    0:17:03 whoops
    0:17:08 Let's say zone subnet CUBE
    0:17:12 I could have just typed it in. It would have been faster.
    0:17:14 177.1.254.1/32 enable
    0:17:21 So we could no shut
    0:17:24 Actually sorry shut and then no shut
    0:17:27 We will reset our gatekeeper over on CUCM.
    0:17:36 And we will do a no gateway
    0:17:38 gateway
    0:17:40 here on corporate headquarter to force the CUBE.
    0:17:43 And no gateway, gateway over on Branch 2
    0:17:51 End out. Clear our buffer.
    0:17:54 sh run | s gatekeeper let's just take a look at it.
    0:18:00 Ok, so we've got the no zone subnet for SEA default.
    0:18:03 And then the /32 host for CME
    0:18:07 and the whole subnet for the corporate headquarter servers.
    0:18:12 And then the no zone subnet for CUBE by default, but allow
    0:18:15 the CUBE itself and if I do a sh gatekeeper end points
    0:18:19 I should see that everything is correctly registered.
    0:18:22 So there and I have my security.
    0:18:28 Ok, so now let's get back to what we were doing.
    0:18:30 Gatekeeper and zone remote
    0:18:34 So what's the gatekeeper name?
    0:18:37 What's the ID of the zone case sensitive?
    0:18:40 Well, again this is something that if you had in the lab
    0:18:43 they would have to give you something specific,
    0:18:46 they'd have to tell you what the gatekeeper name was
    0:18:51 or the zone name, so ours is going to be BB-GK
    0:18:57 whoops sorry, of course that's not enough information
    0:19:00 need to give it a domain name, let's say this is a remote zone called
    0:19:04 itsp.com just generic.
    0:19:10 Let's give it a RAS address.
    0:19:12 Again the domain name is not too terribly important
    0:19:14 or how we are using it.
    0:19:17 The RAS address 177.1.254.254 again this would be something
    0:19:23 they would have to inform you of.
    0:19:30 And then that should be enough.
    0:19:35 Well actually we should probably say it would be enough except
    0:19:41 that we may want to invoke CUBE.
    0:19:46 And in fact let's go ahead and do that.
    0:19:49 Well you know what, let's set it up without CUBE and then
    0:19:53 let's add in CUBE. Just like we did the others.
    0:19:56 Shouldn't take that much more.
    0:19:58 So we're going to go ahead and add that zone remote.
    0:20:02 Ok, we've added the zone remote.
    0:20:05 Remember we did say that we can only have one IP address per zone.
    0:20:09 I'm sorry per gatekeeper for all the zones, but those are
    0:20:12 only for local zones.
    0:20:14 So in other words, if I went and added an IP address to AMS
    0:20:17 if it was the same IP, it would simply add that IP to this line.
    0:20:23 If it was a different IP, it would again add it to this line
    0:20:26 it would take this away.
    0:20:28 In fact, no matter what IP I gave it, if it was to any of the other zones
    0:20:33 it would take away the IP off of this line. There can only be one IP address
    0:20:37 per gatekeeper per for all of the local zones.
    0:20:41 But I can have many remote zones and they each have
    0:20:45 obviously a different IP because I'm defining a different remote gatekeeper.
    0:20:48 Ok, so now we have to have either a zone prefix
    0:20:56 as we saw with that slide
    0:20:59 or -- let me just pop it back up here real quick.
    0:21:03 We either have to have a zone prefix that is remote or
    0:21:08 that maps to a remote zone
    0:21:11 and that matches an actual prefix in the dnis
    0:21:15 not including the tech prefix.
    0:21:17 Or we have to have a tech prefix, but remember with tech prefixes
    0:21:20 how did they match?
    0:21:23 Tech prefixes if we remember
    0:21:26 do sh gatekeeper gw type prefix
    0:21:34 they matched based on dynamic registration.
    0:21:38 So the zones -- I'm sorry the gateways dynamically registered
    0:21:41 with the gatekeeper with their preferred tech prefix.
    0:21:51 And in fact if you recall
    0:21:53 the gatekeeper really had nothing to say
    0:21:58 if take a look at the gatekeeper config
    0:22:00 the gatekeeper really had nothing to say about the actual
    0:22:03 tech prefix. It had to say about zone prefix,
    0:22:06 but it had nothing to say about the tech prefix.
    0:22:08 There was no configuration related to it in there, so
    0:22:10 it was essentially allowing any gateway to register with
    0:22:14 any tech prefix that it desired or chose to register with.
    0:22:18 It just informed the gatekeeper of what it was.
    0:22:22 However, we do have the idea or the ability
    0:22:27 to have a tech prefix
    0:22:32 whoops, sorry
    0:22:36 So what we can say is GW I always type tech prefix, but
    0:22:40 GW or gateway technology prefix.
    0:22:44 I don't know why they don't say GW tech prefix
    0:22:47 as opposed to GW type prefix, but
    0:22:49 anyhow it's been that way for years.
    0:22:51 So GW type prefix, this is how I can statically configure a tech prefix.
    0:22:57 And I give it an E.164 prefix.
    0:23:01 And it says that it may end in trailing dots.
    0:23:04 So multiple, each defining a single digit.
    0:23:08 And by the way, this does not -- this is important -- this does not
    0:23:14 follow the convention of dial peers where if I have
    0:23:20 destination pattern dot(.)
    0:23:23 the more characters could be matched or incoming called number
    0:23:27 dot(.) like one single dot or even if I had incoming called number
    0:23:30 dot, dot (..) that doesn't only mean two digits or two characters
    0:23:35 it could mean three or four or infinite
    0:23:38 up to whatever the maximum string could be.
    0:23:42 It would only be if I said incoming called number ..$
    0:23:47 which is the regular expression for the end of the line
    0:23:50 that it would only be able to have two characters or two digits.
    0:23:56 With gatekeeper there is no regular expression in this statement
    0:24:03 or zone prefix statements.
    0:24:06 So if I say gateway type prefix 5.
    0:24:12 whoops sorry
    0:24:13 that means 5 and one additional character.
    0:24:15 No more.
    0:24:17 Now there could be more, but that's only what defines
    0:24:19 the tech prefix, so there could be more digits to the dnis
    0:24:22 it's just that that's all that defines the tech prefix.
    0:24:26 However, typically we have something like 1# and remember
    0:24:30 the gatekeeper added that asterisk which is the wildcard for any additional digits
    0:24:35 and that is what we would typically want to do
    0:24:37 unless we knew that we only wanted 1#....
    0:24:42 so four exact digits.
    0:24:47 Ok, so we can say GW type prefix
    0:24:51 and note this says that it's an E.164 prefix.
    0:24:56 Right
    0:24:57 Well, wait a minute. If we go back to the slide
    0:25:01 I thought that tech prefixes typically were used as
    0:25:10 gateway specific or maybe even type of traffic
    0:25:17 video or voice specific
    0:25:20 and that they had a hash to separate them.
    0:25:23 Well, first of all the hash is only used as a delineator.
    0:25:30 Ok,
    0:25:31 note that in digits that we can send
    0:25:36 0, 1 so 0 through 9
    0:25:41 we have additional digits on our keypad or we have additional
    0:25:45 buttons which are asterisk and hash.
    0:25:48 But those are just as they -- those are really just specific to
    0:25:53 DTMF, Dual Tone Multi Frequency
    0:25:56 and all they do is produce a frequency.
    0:25:58 Here we're not defining frequency, we're defining actual digits in a string
    0:26:03 and remember that the string
    0:26:06 at least as far as the gatekeeper is concerned, an H.323 does not contain
    0:26:10 asterisk or hash.
    0:26:12 Asterisk is a wildcard as far as gatekeeper’s concerned
    0:26:15 and hash is simply something that can be sent as a tech prefix
    0:26:20 or at any point and is used typically as the delineator.
    0:26:25 Ok,
    0:26:29 So it's a little bit different than how we're used to inputting digits into CUCM.
    0:26:34 But a tech prefix does not have to contain that hash as a delineator.
    0:26:39 So we're used to putting in zone prefix as an E.164
    0:26:43 part of the E.164 number.
    0:26:44 In fact, we talked about having a tech prefix maybe
    0:26:49 as 1# or even 521# whatever
    0:26:56 and a zone prefix being the rest of the dnis, so maybe the entire
    0:27:00 dnis as it came was 521#33155551212
    0:27:21 for instance.
    0:27:24 And we might say that 521 was the tech prefix
    0:27:28 and 331 was the zone prefix.
    0:27:36 But if you recall
    0:27:39 and I don't know how to erase
    0:27:44 all of this. If I do hidden that doesn't work.
    0:27:48 So let me just jump back into that slide.
    0:27:49 But if you'll recall, we certainly did have the ability
    0:27:57 to let's say not have that 521
    0:27:59 let's just say 33 for France
    0:28:03 1 for Paris
    0:28:05 55551212 as the Subscriber number.
    0:28:13 We could make 33 the tech prefix
    0:28:16 and we could make 1 the zone prefix.
    0:28:22 Ok, there wouldn't be any problem with doing that.
    0:28:25 We don't have to have a hash as the delineator
    0:28:30 for the tech prefix.
    0:28:32 So the only way that a tech prefix is going to get us over there
    0:28:35 is if it is of the type hop-off.
    0:28:38 Otherwise we can use a zone prefix.
    0:28:41 So let's actually start.
    0:28:44 Let me get back to that just in case I need to bring it up again.
    0:28:48 Oh, did I delete it? Yep.
    0:28:51 Ok, so do sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:29:00 Alright, so let's do a zone prefix first.
    0:29:05 And say zone prefix for BB-GK is 331 -- actually let's just say 33*
    0:29:21 So what we have is a call's going to come in
    0:29:24 is a tech prefix going to match? No because we don't have any
    0:29:28 statically configured yet. We never went through with that command yet.
    0:29:31 We will.
    0:29:33 And there are no dynamically registered tech prefixes of 33
    0:29:40 So does the zone prefix match? Well if the call is sent in with 33
    0:29:45 as the beginning two digits of whatever length string, then
    0:29:48 yes it will match and the remaining.
    0:29:52 And then it will map to the zone BB-GK, will look up
    0:29:55 is the zone BB-GK local?
    0:29:58 Well no it's not. It's remote. So send an LRQ to this IP address.
    0:30:02 It's really quite simple.
    0:30:04 Backbone or remote gatekeeper is two commands.
    0:30:08 Either zone prefix and zone remote or tech prefix with a hop-off type
    0:30:13 and zone remote, so let's take a look at it.
    0:30:16 Ok, so let's end out. Let's show our debugs.
    0:30:20 We don't have any running. Good. Let's do debug gatekeeper
    0:30:23 does everyone remember what it is? main 5
    0:30:26 By the way, we also have calls 5
    0:30:29 debug gatekeeper call 5
    0:30:32 5 being the verbosity level.
    0:30:35 In fact, let's just turn on call 5 as well so that you can see
    0:30:39 what that looks like.
    0:30:41 We'll go over to our CUCM.
    0:30:43 We will go to our route patterns.
    0:30:47 And we'll create a -- let's just copy this route pattern since
    0:30:52 it already points to the right gateway.
    0:30:55 Not that it's that hard to click a drop-down.
    0:30:57 And we'll make a pattern. Now 33 is going to overlap with 3X
    0:31:05 so we would have to take off urgent priority on the 3X
    0:31:08 Ok, and remember in 7.01
    0:31:13 there certainly is and can be an issue with when we're routing
    0:31:18 a route pattern or pointing a route pattern directly to a gateway.
    0:31:23 There's an issue with the interdigit timeout.
    0:31:27 So either we need to lower that interdigit timeout which is
    0:31:30 the T302 timer in service parameters
    0:31:36 just open that up real quick.
    0:31:47 And we've actually got two T302 timers, one for device general
    0:31:51 which is the one that we want, it's the first one we'll come to
    0:31:53 and then there's a second one which is H.323 T302 timers
    0:31:58 so by default 15000 milliseconds or 15 seconds we could certainly lower that.
    0:32:05 Let's lower it to maybe 8
    0:32:13 not that we're going to keep this configuration around for long
    0:32:16 as soon as we are done with gatekeeper we're going to
    0:32:20 really not be using this 3XXX pattern because our 3000 series
    0:32:26 numbers will be registered to CUCM and we'll place them back in the internal DN's partition.
    0:32:35 But for right now, let's go ahead and copy this.
    0:32:40 Actually sorry.
    0:32:42 Let's go back to our 3XXX untick the urgent priority
    0:32:47 click save
    0:32:49 so we don't forget, and then we'll copy it.
    0:32:53 And we'll say 33, let's say the route pattern is 331
    0:32:59 actually let's just say 33 for the whole country and
    0:33:04 bang for exclamation or exclamation I call it bang
    0:33:09 for any additional digits
    0:33:12 and these are digits 0 through 9
    0:33:15 if take a look in help for this page, we see that an exclamation cannot
    0:33:19 match asterisk or hash.
    0:33:25 Somebody was trying to get into the room there.
    0:33:28 Welcome.
    0:33:31 And we're actually going to use the octothorpe or hash
    0:33:35 as a trailing pattern.
    0:33:41 So we will do let's say -- you know we certainly could do 9. or 0.
    0:33:51 as a way to strip off that call, so let's just do called party transformation
    0:34:03 PreDot Trailing#
    0:34:06 and we're not going to output 2# as a prefix
    0:34:09 or anything like that yet.
    0:34:12 We will say urgent priority because once we've matched that hash
    0:34:16 which the discard digits will strip off that trailing hash
    0:34:21 but once we've matched that, regardless of the additional digits
    0:34:26 because that exclamation does not match asterisk and hash
    0:34:29 it will take any additional regular digits 0 through 9
    0:34:32 then once we press the hash it will match urgent priority
    0:34:36 and go ahead and send out right away.
    0:34:42 Ok, so let's go ahead
    0:34:47 and bring up our Variphy remote phones
    0:34:59 and let's just bring our corporate headquarter phone 1 for right now.
    0:35:07 You know what, that's a little busy. Let's bring up corporate headquarter phone 2
    0:35:14 Ok, so let's go ahead and issue the number 33
    0:35:20 Let's make sure our debug is running. It is.
    0:35:23 Let's go clear off our screen.
    0:35:25 331 and 55551212 was the example we gave.
    0:35:36 whoops sorry
    0:35:37 wrong phone
    0:35:44 Ok, so we got a annunciator message saying that we couldn't
    0:35:50 send the call. Oh! and that's because we didn't add the hash at the end.
    0:35:55 So let's try it again.
    0:35:57 Let's clear off our screen here our corporate headquarter.
    0:36:08 Ok, and again it was because I didn't hit the 9 in there.
    0:36:12 One of these days I'll actually dial the number right.
    0:36:16 Let's see... somebody
    0:36:19 ok, somebody asked a question
    0:36:22 that they didn't quite understand the dial pattern with 33
    0:36:28 exclamation or bang and then hash and then urgent priority
    0:36:34 they said they thought it would route the call right away as soon as
    0:36:36 the hash is pressed even if we did not have urgent priority.
    0:36:39 "Is that correct?"
    0:36:41 Well, in the case that there is no overlapping statements
    0:36:45 then yes, it would be correct because
    0:36:49 so going back to this dial or route pattern
    0:36:56 even if we didn't have urgent priority, it would be dialed immediately
    0:37:00 mainly because we don't have anything else that overlaps with that.
    0:37:07 Once we got a more complex dial plan, the possibility would be there for overlap
    0:37:11 but you're right, we probably don't have to press urgent priority.
    0:37:14 I'll take it off.
    0:37:16 Actually the reason I'm doing it is because we're pointing directly
    0:37:19 to a gateway.
    0:37:21 When we go and point route patterns through route lists
    0:37:25 and route groups in CUCM 7.0
    0:37:29 which is I don't know anyone running 7.0 or really any .0
    0:37:34 in production environments.
    0:37:38 This isn't actually -- I believe that was a fixed caveat
    0:37:42 a resolved caveat, but when we're pointing directly to a gateway
    0:37:45 we've got a little bit of an issue with urgent priority
    0:37:48 or with interdigit timeout.
    0:37:50 In fact, even if I had something like 911 or 112 which don't have
    0:37:56 any overlaps, at least 911 doesn't
    0:38:00 112 possibly could in the 1000 series numbers
    0:38:04 although there aren't any other
    0:38:07 digits in our route pattern or in our route plan
    0:38:11 in CUCM currently that have 1 as a second digit
    0:38:14 we still have an issue that it doesn't want to send to the gateway
    0:38:16 unless we have urgent priority, so that's the reason I checked
    0:38:19 urgent priority for right now is because I'm pointing directly to the gateway.
    0:38:24 Ok,
    0:38:26 so 933155551212 let's clear off our gatekeeper timers
    0:38:35 and the debug again and press dial.
    0:38:41 whoops
    0:38:44 Ok, so we still got the same annunciator message
    0:38:47 let me do undebug all.
    0:38:49 But now we actually got what I wanted which was
    0:38:52 the call coming through, so first of all we get an ARQ
    0:38:55 is it an answer ARQ? No.
    0:38:57 Ok, so let's take a look.
    0:39:00 And we see the number come through. Remember we stripped
    0:39:04 the 9, we did a 9. and we stripped predot
    0:39:08 and we stripped the trailing hash
    0:39:10 so 3315555 or quad 5 1212 is what came through.
    0:39:19 Tech prefix match failed because we have no tech prefixes.
    0:39:22 sh gatekeeper gw type prefix | 33
    0:39:28 whoops
    0:39:29 | in 33, there's none
    0:39:32 whereas if we did | in 1#
    0:39:36 actually we don't have any there, but we do have 2#
    0:39:40 Alright, so we didn't have any tech prefix that matched 33
    0:39:46 We matched a zone prefix 33 and the remainder 1 double 5, double 5 1212
    0:39:54 So we're about to check the source. It came in from the zone Seattle.
    0:39:57 About to check the destination.
    0:39:59 Zone matched was BB-GK.
    0:40:04 Ok, we're saying that this is a put this as a remote zone
    0:40:08 from the zone list.
    0:40:12 We have no out via name length.
    0:40:15 That's zero.
    0:40:17 By the way, you don't really have to worry about proxies.
    0:40:21 There were such a thing
    0:40:24 once upon a time called H.323 proxies.
    0:40:27 Those are different than border elements.
    0:40:31 They did a little bit of what border element did
    0:40:35 in proxying a call through another entity
    0:40:38 but they were far, far, far less robust, so
    0:40:42 Cisco doesn't use any of the industry standard H.323 proxies anymore
    0:40:47 in lieu of the much, much more capable border element
    0:40:51 or IP-to-IP gateway.
    0:40:56 By the way, notice that so some of this is the result of the
    0:41:02 debug gatekeeper main 5, but some of it is the result of the debug
    0:41:07 gatekeeper call 5, so one of the things that we get with a debug
    0:41:11 gatekeeper call is BW, bandwidth.
    0:41:16 Ok, which can be really nice.
    0:41:22 Ok, so the zone local SEA, the remote zone BB-GK
    0:41:27 Call direction is 1
    0:41:30 so it's in an outbound
    0:41:31 and note what we have let's see, proxy's returned 0
    0:41:37 These are actually part of the debug call.
    0:41:40 Let's actually just do
    0:41:43 debug gatekeeper main 5 and I'm going to hit redial.
    0:41:48 And hang up.
    0:41:51 And do undebug all.
    0:41:54 And note that right before I got these timer events, I turned off and
    0:41:59 all we see is tech prefix match failed
    0:42:03 matched zone, it sent the call, that's all we heard.
    0:42:07 We didn't hear anything else.
    0:42:09 Ok, well let's do a debug ras and let's see what we see.
    0:42:14 I'm going to hit redial.
    0:42:20 Undebug all.
    0:42:23 So let's see what we have here.
    0:42:29 We received a message from .20
    0:42:31 which was an ARQ
    0:42:36 Ok, then we sent a message
    0:42:41 from ourselves, .1
    0:42:44 1719, port 1719 which is RAS
    0:42:47 to 177.1.254.254 which is the PSTN
    0:42:52 as an LRQ, a location request.
    0:42:55 And at the same time, we sent a message from us back to the Subscriber
    0:42:59 saying request is in progress. Just wait a second, we'll talk to you.
    0:43:05 Ok, so then we received a message of the length, the 111 characters
    0:43:11 from the PSTN saying location confirm.
    0:43:17 So we got a confirmation saying, 'Yeah, we've essentially got that number
    0:43:24 here's the IP address to contact.
    0:43:26 So what do we send back from us, the gatekeeper .1
    0:43:31 to the Subscriber .10.20
    0:43:36 we send back an admission confirm to the Subscriber.
    0:43:43 Ok, and then we successfully received a message from the
    0:43:46 Subscriber saying DRQ, disengage request.
    0:43:51 So the gatekeeper routed everything properly.
    0:43:54 Now remember we're never going to see an answer ARQ on this gatekeeper
    0:43:59 if you recall, let me just bring up that slide again real briefly.
    0:44:06 Ok, we're going to place an ARQ
    0:44:08 It's going to look up, it's going to find the remote zone
    0:44:10 it's going to send an LRQ to the PSTN backbone gatekeeper
    0:44:14 send a request in progress back to us
    0:44:17 the PSTN will do a lookup, it finds the gateway
    0:44:21 sends an LCF back to us, location confirm
    0:44:24 we send an ACF back to the Subscriber, we saw that happen.
    0:44:29 And then we try to do a call setup.
    0:44:31 All of that happened and that's all that we know about from
    0:44:34 the gatekeeper except that the gatekeeper also then
    0:44:38 saw the Subscriber send a DRQ, a disengage request.
    0:44:42 Now we don't see what happens over here on the PSTN side.
    0:44:47 On the PSTN side, once we've set the call setup
    0:44:50 if there was indeed a call to be able to be setup
    0:44:54 if there was a routable number over there on that IOS gateway
    0:44:58 which is the PSTN router, it would have sent up
    0:45:01 its own answer ARQ, but we can't see that because it doesn't
    0:45:04 come to the physical Router 1 gatekeeper
    0:45:09 it goes to the physical PSTN gatekeeper, the backbone.
    0:45:15 And if it had sent up an answer ARQ, then the PSTN
    0:45:19 would have answered with an ACF and it would have responded
    0:45:22 with the call setup and then we would have tried to negotiate
    0:45:26 and so we really don't know if any of that happened.
    0:45:29 If what we got back for an H.225 call setup response.
    0:45:36 But we do know that the Subscriber sent a DRQ,
    0:45:40 a disengage request up to the gatekeeper.
    0:45:44 Ok because we saw that... where's my mouse?
    0:45:47 We saw that here, disengage received from the Subscriber
    0:45:52 and then the message length which is only three characters
    0:45:57 which is a DCF confirm from us to the Subscriber saying,
    0:46:01 'Ok, confirmed. I've torn down the call.'
    0:46:03 And then we saw registration request which is just incidental.
    0:46:07 Ok, so we don't know why the call didn't work.
    0:46:11 We can go dig in the traces
    0:46:14 of CUCM and that's entirely possible we could find something there.
    0:46:20 You know what, let's try it with a tech prefix. Let's see if we can get
    0:46:23 it to route with a tech prefix.
    0:46:25 So let's do sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:46:30 and let's do config t
    0:46:33 and let's actually get rid of the zone prefix 33
    0:46:40 gatekeeper no zone prefix 33
    0:46:44 So do sh run | s gatekeeper just to confirm that it's gone.
    0:46:49 Yep, it's gone. There's only three zone prefixes and those are all local.
    0:46:53 whereas as we did have the fourth in there.
    0:46:55 Let's try that call again.
    0:46:58 do debug gatekeeper main 5
    0:47:02 Let's try the call again, let's hit redial.
    0:47:07 And do undebug all.
    0:47:09 Let's scroll up.
    0:47:10 Now the tech prefix match failed and it matched the zone prefix of 3
    0:47:18 because 33 was there, but we're only matching the zone prefix
    0:47:23 of 3 whereas previously we had been matching the zone prefix of 33
    0:47:28 so what zone prefix was it matching? Let me scroll to our configuration.
    0:47:32 It's now matching SEA 3*
    0:47:35 whereas there was a more specific 33* earlier.
    0:47:40 Ok, so the source came in from SEA
    0:47:45 and the destination went out to SEA as well.
    0:47:51 Ok, so the source zone was SEA over here
    0:47:54 destination was SEA, it's trying to select an IP-to-IP gateway.
    0:47:58 It did and it's getting an answer call, but that's because
    0:48:04 it's selecting the gateway of CME
    0:48:09 and it probably sent the call in over here to CME
    0:48:12 if we did a debug voip dial peer
    0:48:16 and hit redial again.
    0:48:22 Let's see...
    0:48:28 3 it should have -- let's just do a debug ras and see who actually answered that call.
    0:48:34 do debug ras
    0:48:40 undebug all
    0:48:45 and...
    0:48:52 and let's see...
    0:48:55 the ARQ, this is for the CUBE
    0:49:01 the disengage request
    0:49:05 for the CUBE and a disengage request for the Subscriber.
    0:49:10 Oh, that was the original disengage request.
    0:49:12 Oh! So what happened was it invoked the CUBE, but the CUBE
    0:49:15 has nothing. If we look at the dial peers here
    0:49:18 do sh | s voice
    0:49:24 The dial peers we've got and by the way, I rearranged these dial peers
    0:49:29 from yesterday so that we can continue using this corporate
    0:49:34 headquarter gateway as our SIP gateway when it comes to
    0:49:37 the added descriptions as well to the PSTN, so I took 100 and 101
    0:49:42 our SIP dial peers for PSTN PRI gateway services
    0:49:47 and then 200 and 201, our CUBE gatekeeper dial peers.
    0:49:52 So the call came in. We didn't have a destination pattern
    0:49:55 that matched 3 anything, so it never even went beyond the CUBE.
    0:50:00 We could just take that -- let's see
    0:50:03 gatekeeper
    0:50:09 We could just take this statement out altogether, no zone prefix 3*
    0:50:13 and then it wouldn't match a tech prefix or a zone prefix.
    0:50:16 So let's try putting in a gw type prefix
    0:50:21 for 33*, so we're going to use 33 as the tech prefix and we're
    0:50:28 going to make it of the type hop-off.
    0:50:31 So this always hops off at the specified zone.
    0:50:34 And the gatekeeper name or zone name is BB-GK
    0:50:40 and let's just do that.
    0:50:46 Ok, so now we have our hop-off tech prefix.
    0:50:50 And let's go ahead and add the zone prefix of 1*
    0:50:56 and we'll make that
    0:51:00 whoops sorry
    0:51:01 It needs the zone name or gatekeeper name first, so
    0:51:03 BB-GK and then 1*
    0:51:12 So remember the tech prefix should match 33 and the remainder.
    0:51:16 And then the zone prefix will match 1*
    0:51:22 Ok,
    0:51:24 let's see if that will work.
    0:51:26 Ok do debug gatekeeper main 5
    0:51:29 and let's hit redial.
    0:51:35 Ok, do undebug all
    0:51:41 Ok, matched the tech prefix 33
    0:51:44 notice we don't even go into a zone prefix check
    0:51:47 so at this point, this becomes completely irrelevant
    0:51:51 because with the hop-off tech prefix, we don't even check
    0:51:55 for a zone prefix anymore.
    0:51:58 We've already matched a tech prefix to a zone
    0:52:01 and that's the whole purpose of a zone prefix, so we don't need to.
    0:52:04 So we matched the tech prefix about to check the source
    0:52:08 is Seattle
    0:52:09 about to check the destination is BB-GK
    0:52:13 We found the zone list.
    0:52:16 If we looked at a debug ras, we'd see the same thing
    0:52:20 it went out as an LRQ, so first we looked at using a zone prefix
    0:52:23 only to send that LRQ, now we've looked at using a
    0:52:31 a hop-off tech prefix
    0:52:33 statically defined hop-off tech prefix to match a number
    0:52:37 and send it off to remote zone and send and LRQ,
    0:52:41 but we still don't know why the call has failed.
    0:52:45 All we saw earlier with the debug ras was a disengage request
    0:52:49 from the originating gateway, the CUCM.
    0:52:53 Ok, so
    0:52:54 we're going to leave that config
    0:52:57 sh deb, I don't think we have anything on, let's clear off our screen.
    0:52:59 Let's go ahead and write our router config actually.
    0:53:03 And let's now do a debug H.225 events
    0:53:08 Let's see what happens here.
    0:53:11 So we are going to see some events for registration, hopefully
    0:53:14 we can do this quick enough. Let me just hit undebug all
    0:53:18 and then turn it back on so that I've got it ready and
    0:53:20 I'm going to hit redial.
    0:53:27 And note here
    0:53:31 very easily call disconnect for the reason unassigned number.
    0:53:36 So the backbone and I'll just go ahead and show you the PSTN
    0:53:53 And I actually don't even have the proper name setup for
    0:53:58 for the zone that it's coming in from.
    0:54:01 I could change that.
    0:54:03 But it shouldn't make much of a difference.
    0:54:12 Let's just go ahead and change that real quick.
    0:54:32 and I named that...
    0:54:36 that actually shouldn't matter.
    0:54:38 I've got an active registration in there.
    0:54:40 The domain name shouldn't matter.
    0:54:42 whoops
    0:54:50 Ok, and I also have do sh run int loopback 0
    0:54:56 actually sorry
    0:54:58 do sh run int loopback 0
    0:55:02 so I've got this gateway, not necessarily CUBE, but a gateway registered with
    0:55:09 may or may not be registered with the gatekeeper here.
    0:55:20 And I actually have a tech prefix 33
    0:55:25 That's fine, it would match the tech prefix, but it wouldn't match the zone prefix.
    0:55:30 Let's go ahead and get rid of this zone prefix config.
    0:55:44 Ok, so now I've only got the zone local and remote.
    0:55:48 The gateway, the PSTN is registered with a tech prefix, so
    0:55:52 do sh gatekeeper end points
    0:55:56 We see the gateway registered.
    0:55:58 By the way, we see the PSTN numbers
    0:56:01 because I'm running CME here.
    0:56:02 We don't see any numbers that begin with 33, we see numbers
    0:56:05 begin with 31
    0:56:07 and if I do sh gatekeeper gw type prefix
    0:56:13 I see a gateway that's registered with 33, so that should route the call.
    0:56:19 Let's just go ahead and do -- again this is not something
    0:56:22 you would see in the real lab, but let's just do
    0:56:24 debug gatekeeper main 5
    0:56:29 over here.
    0:56:32 And let's turn that back on over here. Let's run the call.
    0:56:40 Ok, we still have disconnect is for an unassigned number over here.
    0:56:45 And the PSTN
    0:56:50 has matched the tech prefix, zone prefix match failed
    0:56:54 so that just means it's going to use the...
    0:57:05 What am I trying to say? It's going to use the
    0:57:07 target or destination zone as the source zone.
    0:57:10 So checking the source side
    0:57:14 of the LRQ, the location request.
    0:57:17 The source side is matched zone SEA which was a remote zone.
    0:57:23 And there's no in via.
    0:57:25 Checking the destination side
    0:57:29 is BB-GK
    0:57:31 Ok, and we did get an answer call equals 1, so the gateway
    0:57:35 answered and said or asked for an answer admission request
    0:57:42 said, 'Am I allowed to answer the call?'
    0:57:44 And if we would have done a debug ras, we would have seen
    0:57:47 on this backbone PSTN gatekeeper we would have seen the
    0:57:54 the gateway essentially tried to ask to answer the call
    0:58:00 and then also place a disengage request.
    0:58:04 Why? Well we saw the answer right here when we looked at the
    0:58:08 E.164 number assignment.
    0:58:10 There simply are no numbers registered that begin in 33
    0:58:17 and even if the numbers weren't registered in 33
    0:58:20 the tech prefix should be enough to match the gateway,
    0:58:23 but even if the gateway doesn't have the
    0:58:25 numbers, the E.164 aliases registered
    0:58:29 it still actually has to have somewhere in its dial plan
    0:58:32 something related to 33, so something like a...
    0:58:38 Let's just write this router config show
    0:58:45 this is a slower router show
    0:58:47 dial peer voice sum
    0:58:51 and actually let me rerun that command | in 33
    0:58:57 And we see some things that include 33, but nothing that
    0:59:01 includes the beginning of the string
    0:59:05 being 33, we have 31, +31, 31
    0:59:09 We've got some 33 information, but that comes later in the string.
    0:59:13 So nothing that begins with 33
    0:59:16 So again the debug h225 events
    0:59:21 is a great piece of configuration.
    0:59:27 And it's what allow us to see used in the billing information actually
    0:59:32 the clear ASCII text of the call disconnect reason unassigned number.
    0:59:38 Ok, let's do one last thing with gatekeeper.
    0:59:41 And that is sh run | s gatekeeper
    0:59:49 Actually let's go over to the PSTN and do a debug h225 asn1
    0:59:57 and let's try that call again. I'm just going to hit redial over here.
    1:00:04 And let's do an undebug all.
    1:00:07 And scroll all the way up to the top.
    1:00:09 And we're going to see first of all a location request,
    1:00:12 so we see RAS incoming.
    1:00:15 And we've got the dial digits information.
    1:00:20 The IP address in hex which is nice.
    1:00:23 Port number in regular decimal. Why they do IP in hex, but port
    1:00:27 in decimal. I don't know why the ITUT chose to do that.
    1:00:32 From the source zone SEA.
    1:00:35 Ok, then we have the H.225 nonstandard incoming PDU
    1:00:43 So,
    1:00:47 actually this is still with gatekeeper related information.
    1:00:52 Gateway source information. 1002 is the phone it came from.
    1:00:57 LCF what we're essentially saying is that backbone gateway is there
    1:01:03 and there is an E.164 number that happens to be associated
    1:01:06 with backbone gateway. It's the first one, it's not necessarily -- actually
    1:01:11 we're sending that information even though it's not necessarily the
    1:01:16 phone number that was requested.
    1:01:18 So RAS outgoing, we're sending a location confirm.
    1:01:24 Ok,
    1:01:26 and here is an H.225 call setup
    1:01:32 the dialed digits from the source address, so they're not really
    1:01:35 dialed digits, this is the 'calling' number
    1:01:37 is 1002
    1:01:41 The dialed digits, the destination address is 33155551212, so
    1:01:48 this coming from -- who is it coming from?
    1:01:53 Let's see...
    1:01:53 It's coming from...
    1:01:58 if I can find the IP address here
    1:02:02 here we go. IP address, so we can use Calculator.
    1:02:12 And in the lab you have scientific Windows Calculator.
    1:02:17 It's not quite as cool as this
    1:02:19 Mac calculator that actually gives you binary and hex
    1:02:24 but at least not the bits, but we'll do hexadecimal obviously.
    1:02:29 So if we put in B1
    1:02:34 and we go over to binary
    1:02:36 we get 177
    1:02:38 Ok, if we put in 01
    1:02:43 Well that's easy to read in just about any language, that's .1
    1:02:47 so this is 177.1. 0A
    1:02:55 which is 10. and then 14 in hex is 20
    1:03:01 So 177.1.10.20
    1:03:04 So we see from the IP address that the -- and from the debug h225
    1:03:10 that the call came in from the CUCM.
    1:03:13 Ok, no problem let's clear this off.
    1:03:17 Again, you're not going to have access to the PSTN in the real lab.
    1:03:22 I'm just trying to prove the point.
    1:03:24 So let's go to config t and gatekeeper.
    1:03:27 And we're going to add to the zone remote
    1:03:33 we're going to add an out via CUBE.
    1:03:37 So now when you go out through that remote zone
    1:03:44 go out via CUBE. Now we’re going to have to have a dial peer that would support that.
    1:03:48 So do sh | s voice 2 something
    1:03:56 So we've got our incoming dial peer will accept any number.
    1:03:59 We're going to need one for outgoing.
    1:04:01 So let's create a dial peer 202 voip
    1:04:07 And we'll just say our outbound calls to our backbone gatekeeper.
    1:04:18 And we'll say the -- session target RAS and QoS are the same.
    1:04:23 But the destination pattern is going to be 331.T
    1:04:37 Ok, so now let's do a -- let's clear this off
    1:04:42 sh deb, debug gatekeeper main 10
    1:04:50 and let's also debug h225 asn1 over here
    1:04:54 do a redial
    1:04:58 undebug all
    1:05:01 undebug all
    1:05:03 So we're on Router 1
    1:05:05 We see that the call came in.
    1:05:07 Matched the tech prefix.
    1:05:12 The source zone is SEA. The destination zone is BB-GK
    1:05:16 There's an out via zone which is CUBE.
    1:05:19 Ok, selecting an IP-to-IP gateway.
    1:05:22 Let's scroll down.
    1:05:24 Found an IP-to-IP gateway, selected it.
    1:05:29 And we got an answer call equals 1 that's from CUBE.
    1:05:33 Then CUBE, so that was the inbound
    1:05:35 dial peer asking if it could answer the call.
    1:05:38 Then the outbound dial peer if it could send the call.
    1:05:44 And so we're invoking CUBE.
    1:05:46 Again we matched the tech prefix.
    1:05:49 It's an ARQ nonstandard ingress network, so this is coming from CUBE.
    1:05:55 About to check the destination is BB-GK
    1:05:58 Out via, so received an ARQ for a zone that has an out via zone CUBE
    1:06:03 but I am that via zone, so continue normal processing.
    1:06:06 Put it in the remote zone
    1:06:09 which is to send the LRQ.
    1:06:12 We don't see any more information.
    1:06:16 And if we look over here at the PSTN, yes we're going to have the RAS
    1:06:21 The RAS LCF
    1:06:24 Keep scrolling down, that's still RAS
    1:06:26 Here's the H.225 information. We come from CUBE.
    1:06:33 And if we scroll down
    1:06:38 Did we prefix digits to that?
    1:06:41 I don't think that had a tech prefix, did it?
    1:06:43 sh run | s voice 20
    1:06:52 No I didn't have a tech prefix in that.
    1:06:53 Whoops
    1:06:55 Ok,
    1:07:01 Oh, I see. The CUBE itself actually had the 2# as its tech prefix.
    1:07:07 That's not coming as part of the destination dialed digits.
    1:07:11 That still begins with 33, it's just that it's reporting that that
    1:07:15 CUBE gateway or IP-to-IP gateway
    1:07:19 registered originally. It supports those prefixes, it registered with 2#
    1:07:24 Anyhow,
    1:07:26 so moving on down here's our IP address.
    1:07:30 So we see B1
    1:07:33 whoops
    1:07:34 hex B1
    1:07:37 is still going to be 177.1.FE.01
    1:07:43 So FE is 254
    1:07:47 and 01 is 1, so
    1:07:50 177.1.254.1
    1:07:57 So now we see the call actually coming from the CUBE.
    1:08:00 That worked properly.
    1:08:02 Let's go ahead and exit out of the PSTN and again
    1:08:05 we'll clear off our screen, sh deb
    1:08:08 debug h225 events
    1:08:18 h225, not just 225
    1:08:21 and redial again.
    1:08:25 And even with CUBE we see a lot more information this time.
    1:08:27 In fact, let me just undebug all real quick.
    1:08:31 And this is because we're now -- this is actually all the information
    1:08:37 from the gateway, the CUCM talking to us which because
    1:08:44 our router is also the CUBE gateway.
    1:08:46 So that's why we're seeing a lot of additional information.
    1:08:50 But when it comes down to it at the very end of it after
    1:08:56 we see all that Q.931 setup, connection everything
    1:09:00 we still see the call disconnect reason equals unassigned number.
    1:09:04 So that debug h225 event can be really useful.
    1:09:08 If we were trying to debug a SIP ITSP, debug ccsip messages
    1:09:15 and debug ccsip events
    1:09:22 and actually error as well, those would be the three that I would use
    1:09:27 might even look at media if I wanted to see why.
    1:09:30 Maybe it was failing at a little more detailed level.
    1:09:32 But debug ccsip messages events and error and we'll look at those debugs
    1:09:36 certainly a little bit, but as far as gatekeeper
    1:09:41 that should go over just about everything that you can expect
    1:09:48 or funny, funny, hope to see in the lab.
