For our next task, dealing with call pickup groups,
|
|
0:00:17
|
we are told to ensure that, just as in CUCM
|
|
0:00:20
|
that the branch 2 phones are able to be
|
|
0:00:25
|
picked up in the same pickup groups that they were using in CUCM.
|
|
0:00:30
|
We are also told to create a new
|
|
0:00:32
|
group with a pickup DN of 3989
|
|
0:00:36
|
and assign to the Skinny boy's "shared line."
|
|
0:00:39
|
So let's first
|
|
0:00:42
|
take a look over in CUCM.
|
|
0:00:48
|
Let's take a look at our call
|
|
0:00:52
|
pickup groups
|
|
0:00:57
|
and specifically our call pickup group 2
|
|
0:01:00
|
Actually, I just wanted to look at the DN and could’ve seen that back in the
|
|
0:01:03
|
table view here. So, the branch 2 phones pickup group was the DN of
|
|
0:01:08
|
3999. Let's make sure that this exists
|
|
0:01:13
|
as a pickup group
|
|
0:01:15
|
for a phone. Let's do a show run pipe to begin with e-phone
|
|
0:01:19
|
E-phone DN 1.
|
|
0:01:25
|
So e-phone DN 1
|
|
0:01:29
|
Let’s go and jump in to that e-phone
|
|
0:01:32
|
and let’s do pickup group
|
|
0:01:34
|
3999
|
|
0:01:38
|
and we’ll the same for e-phone DN 2
|
|
0:01:42
|
and let’s take a look at our
|
|
0:01:48
|
voice register
|
|
0:01:52
|
for one
|
|
0:01:54
|
We have anything related to pickup in here.
|
|
0:01:59
|
We really don't. There is very little that can be done
|
|
0:02:03
|
but the SIP phones for SRST fallback mode.
|
|
0:02:08
|
They still certainly haven’t caught up to
|
|
0:02:11
|
feature parity to the skinny phones in traditional
|
|
0:02:15
|
SIP CME mode
|
|
0:02:19
|
but in SRST, there is even less that we can do.
|
|
0:02:25
|
Our lines that fell back as intercom line or auto
|
|
0:02:28
|
answer on speaker don’t even have the ability to do that
|
|
0:02:33
|
anymore. So, there is just very little that we can do.
|
|
0:02:36
|
Let’s do show run pipe to begin e-phone
|
|
0:02:41
|
DN1 and we see that we have added the pickup group 3999
|
|
0:02:48
|
to DN1 and 2. And we’ve got the Skinny boy’s
|
|
0:02:53
|
"shared line" here so we’ll jump into
|
|
0:03:05
|
e-phone DN 6
|
|
0:03:07
|
We were told to add another pickup group of 3989
|
|
0:03:13
|
So, we’ve added all that. We saved our configuration
|
|
0:03:18
|
and now, let’s go ahead and try to test some of this. So,
|
|
0:03:26
|
if I have a call come in from, let's say, let’s bring up the PSTN phone.
|
|
0:03:33
|
From the PSTN phone, let’s have it dial
|
|
0:03:40
|
let’s have it dial from the
|
|
0:03:43
|
Amsterdam line, or have it dial a
|
|
0:03:45
|
so we can dial seven digits, 703
|
|
0:03:49
|
You can actually dial seven digits from anywhere. You might not get
|
|
0:03:52
|
the proper calling party and type. We certainly don’t
|
|
0:03:56
|
ensure that if that’s what you are dealing with
|
|
0:03:59
|
which were not in this lab but you can dial
|
|
0:04:03
|
kind of cheap tips, 703-3001
|
|
0:04:07
|
let's say 3001 from any line. So just press dialled number
|
|
0:04:15
|
So, 3001 is ringing but we want 3002 to pick it up
|
|
0:04:20
|
So, let’s go off hook and let’s press More for the soft key
|
|
0:04:28
|
and let’s press Group Pickup
|
|
0:04:37
|
and that actually
|
|
0:04:40
|
waited too long for everything to happen which I probably do a refresh every
|
|
0:04:47
|
2 seconds here for this particular task
|
|
0:04:50
|
when we involved soft keys. I haven’t set at 5 by default.
|
|
0:04:55
|
Let’s try to have this dial it again.
|
|
0:04:57
|
We’re gonna have 3002 go off hook
|
|
0:05:00
|
and kind of anticipate this and press More
|
|
0:05:04
|
and let’s do a group pickup
|
|
0:05:11
|
We are not seeing anything work. Let's try
|
|
0:05:20
|
restarting the phones because we made a change and really for SRST
|
|
0:05:25
|
sometimes, by the way I’ll note, you will have problems sometimes
|
|
0:05:30
|
when you do what I am about to do. Hopefully, it’s gonna work just fine
|
|
0:05:33
|
but if I do an E-phone 1 restart and E-phone 2
|
|
0:05:38
|
restart, they should re-register
|
|
0:05:43
|
properly but I have seen issues where they
|
|
0:05:45
|
when you restart them from the CME command line,
|
|
0:05:50
|
because they're in SRST mode and they are trying to primarily go back to their
|
|
0:05:55
|
subscribers or sub and pub and/or small
|
|
0:05:59
|
CCIE two-server implementation for lab example.
|
|
0:06:05
|
I have seen them not come back for quite a while.
|
|
0:06:08
|
Not only that they are trying to register those other two but it is almost just like,
|
|
0:06:11
|
hey, CME you got rid of me, told me to
|
|
0:06:15
|
buzz off so I am not going to come back.”
|
|
0:06:17
|
They are coming back pretty quickly and they have in my
|
|
0:06:20
|
recent test but I have seen bugs related to that.
|
|
0:06:24
|
There we go. They're back up so let's try the call again.
|
|
0:06:38
|
And We're gonna go off hook over here.
|
|
0:06:41
|
On the other skinny phone, press More
|
|
0:06:43
|
and we’re gonna press our group pickup
|
|
0:06:47
|
and still nothing. Nothing at all.
|
|
0:06:54
|
Okay and I keep getting a CUE introductory.
|
|
0:06:58
|
Let's just try it, let me try it manually
|
|
0:07:07
|
So if I do pickup
|
|
0:07:11
|
It’s seeming to work properly. By the way this is
|
|
0:07:15
|
the screen is not just clearing properly but it is actually
|
|
0:07:19
|
There we go, the screen finally cleared.
|
|
0:07:24
|
But it was hang up.
|
|
0:07:27
|
If I do Dial Number again and from the second phone
|
|
0:07:36
|
I do More and
|
|
0:07:46
|
this phone is not
|
|
0:07:49
|
responding as quickly as I'd like
|
|
0:07:56
|
Actually display is not responding quickly as I'd like
|
|
0:08:03
|
when it tell it to re-control this one just
|
|
0:08:05
|
all I do was a ctrl+R
|
|
0:08:15
|
There we go. Now I've got G pickup and more
|
|
0:08:26
|
So, I go off hook and I do a More and pick up,
|
|
0:08:32
|
now, and I'll mute this, it is connecting.
|
|
0:08:38
|
So I'm connected over here
|
|
0:08:42
|
It’s might because I increase the screen. I am not sure.
|
|
0:08:44
|
There we go, we’re connected properly. So, hang up
|
|
0:08:51
|
and
|
|
0:09:00
|
let’s take a look at our configuration
|
|
0:09:13
|
I actually already have something in here
|
|
0:09:16
|
which is why the pickup button was working
|
|
0:09:18
|
that I meant to remove before I started the demonstration
|
|
0:09:23
|
and that is this command right here
|
|
0:09:24
|
No Service Directed Pickup. Let’s actually
|
|
0:09:27
|
just experiment with that and see
|
|
0:09:29
|
what that does. Exit. Let’s do the telephony service
|
|
0:09:34
|
and No Service
|
|
0:09:38
|
Directed Pickup which is the default
|
|
0:09:40
|
If I do show run pipe 2
|
|
0:09:43
|
include anywhere that I see the word pickup
|
|
0:09:46
|
I should it at least
|
|
0:09:49
|
I'm sorry, no service
|
|
0:09:53
|
I wanna do service directed pickup. There we go.
|
|
0:09:57
|
Service directed pickup is the default. Other than my
|
|
0:09:59
|
templates which have soft keys in them, I’ve got pick up group
|
|
0:10:03
|
3999, 3999, and 3989
|
|
0:10:06
|
on E-phone DN 1, 2 and 6. It doesn't show me
|
|
0:10:10
|
from 1, 2 and 6. I just remember that’s where it is.
|
|
0:10:13
|
But, no service directed pickup or something that I had entered.
|
|
0:10:17
|
So, here’s what happens
|
|
0:10:22
|
if I dial from the PSTN
|
|
0:10:29
|
and I go off hook on the phone that it’s not ringing
|
|
0:10:32
|
but in the same pickup group,
|
|
0:10:34
|
at least the DN is in the same pickup group and do More
|
|
0:10:37
|
and press the Pickup soft key.
|
|
0:10:48
|
And that's the CUE module. So it doesn't actually pick up the call.
|
|
0:10:55
|
It actually tries to
|
|
0:11:04
|
The problem was that I had press this button after
|
|
0:11:09
|
too long and then it gone back to redial. The screen hadn't caught up
|
|
0:11:13
|
but it actually gone back to redial.
|
|
0:11:15
|
So because of that let's try this again. We'll dial from the PSTN
|
|
0:11:19
|
We'll just go off hook here real quickly. I'll press More
|
|
0:11:25
|
and I'll press the Pickup soft key.
|
|
0:11:29
|
And I could keep pressing it but it’s not going to do anything.
|
|
0:11:33
|
By default, it is not gonna do anything.
|
|
0:11:36
|
Let’s try calling it again
|
|
0:11:41
|
and what I can do is go off hook
|
|
0:11:43
|
on the phone that is not ringing but in the same pick up group, hit More
|
|
0:11:47
|
and hit G Pickup
|
|
0:11:51
|
and then I could dial 3999
|
|
0:11:58
|
Now, I actually didn’t get to it in time.
|
|
0:12:00
|
If I do it with manual phones, some of the things are harder to
|
|
0:12:04
|
to test what the remote client certainly
|
|
0:12:08
|
Hardware phones are definitely the way to go if you can
|
|
0:12:10
|
But if I go and go off hook here and do More, Group Pickup
|
|
0:12:14
|
3999 then it does
|
|
0:12:18
|
And hit mute. It does pick up the phone properly. So, I had to hit
|
|
0:12:23
|
go off on the phone that was not ringing, the line that was a part of any pick up group,
|
|
0:12:28
|
say More, G Pickup for group pickup and dial the
|
|
0:12:33
|
group number. But I can’t just press pick up
|
|
0:12:37
|
to pick up calls on my own group and that’s by default.
|
|
0:12:42
|
In order to be able to pick up calls in my own group,
|
|
0:12:46
|
I need to say No Service Directed Pickup. So, instead of
|
|
0:12:50
|
telling it that I have to direct
|
|
0:12:53
|
the pick up to tell it where to pick it up,
|
|
0:12:56
|
I have to access a No Service Directed Pickup.
|
|
0:12:59
|
By the way, one of the other things that
|
|
0:13:04
|
and this will allow me to just press up the Pickup button and any
|
|
0:13:07
|
call within my theme pickup group will come to me.
|
|
0:13:10
|
We’ll test it out here just again.
|
|
0:13:12
|
But in the documentation, it actually does mention that
|
|
0:13:17
|
with the default of service directed pick up
|
|
0:13:19
|
you can press the pickup soft key and then press the asterisk
|
|
0:13:23
|
or * DTMF keypad and that will pick
|
|
0:13:26
|
pick it up. That functionality does come in 7.1
|
|
0:13:30
|
It is not in 7.0. We’ll try this again. We'll dial the number.
|
|
0:13:36
|
We now got No Service Directed Pickup under telephony service.
|
|
0:13:39
|
We’ll go off hook on the other phone, hit More
|
|
0:13:42
|
and then just hit Pickup soft key
|
|
0:13:45
|
and certainly, I'm sorry, mute the phones,
|
|
0:13:49
|
that will pickup any ringing call in the same pickup group.
|
|
0:13:54
|
Now I also have the ability. Let’s say this call
|
|
0:13:59
|
let's just clear off that screen
|
|
0:14:04
|
comes in to 703-3010 which is the shared line
|
|
0:14:13
|
and I can dial in. It is ringing on both phones
|
|
0:14:17
|
but instead of just going off hook, I am gonna pick up
|
|
0:14:20
|
another line and do a More
|
|
0:14:25
|
G Pickup and then I am gonna dial 3989
|
|
0:14:32
|
And now I am also connected
|
|
0:14:36
|
to the shared line
|
|
0:14:38
|
from the PSTN.
|
|
0:14:45
|
. I can still do group pickup to other
|
|
0:14:48
|
pickup groups or I can just pickup my own with the pickup key.
|
|
0:14:56
|
By the way, speaking of the shared line, I don’t know
|
|
0:14:58
|
if we ever actually showed the
|
|
0:15:01
|
dial out to the PSTN.
|
|
0:15:05
|
Dial. Let's go ahead and do mute
|
|
0:15:07
|
and let’s answer and do mute.
|
|
0:15:11
|
Sometimes the PSTN display doesn’t always
|
|
0:15:14
|
update properly. There, I finally did but
|
|
0:15:18
|
It typically is
|
|
0:15:20
|
responding properly to the key presses
|
|
0:15:22
|
and you can certainly always hit the Ctrl R
|
|
0:15:24
|
and it will refresh it because
|
|
0:15:26
|
it is a 7960. It is a little bit older. It is a lot slower phone
|
|
0:15:30
|
But we can test the
|
|
0:15:32
|
C barge functionality if I have it mapped to this particular phone
|
|
0:15:37
|
so I can go off on that line and I see C barge.
|
|
0:15:42
|
Assuming that, let's go mute again cause it automatically takes
|
|
0:15:45
|
if off but assuming we have a conference bridge set up, which we do,
|
|
0:15:49
|
then we see that all the phones do properly update.
|
|
0:15:51
|
It wasn’t part of the task but I did forget to
|
|
0:15:54
|
test it and demonstrate it earlier. I wanted to
|
|
0:15:57
|
prove that C barge will still work
|
|
0:15:59
|
in CME. Remember, it is only C barge and not barge
|
|
0:16:02
|
and it’s only CME SRST not traditional SRST
|
|
0:16:06
|
and you cannot have single button
|
|
0:16:09
|
barge provision first.
|
