Chapter 4: Getting Started with Command Line Interface

Gateway

The Gateway converts circuit switched calls to VoIP calls. The Gateway options setting below is shown as example of how the gateway’s gatekeeper is set to the IP address of the CMS. As a result, the CMS will work as a Gateway and a Gatekeeper.

Example

config-H323SignalingGroup-1* set GateKeeperIPAddr xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa

Border Element

The Border Element provides access into or out of an administrative domain. There are two Border Elements in an administrative domain: primary and secondary.

In the example which follows, the CMS is taking the additional responsibility of acting as a Border Element also.

config-BorderElement-1* set ServiceAddressIPAddr xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa

Channel Group

Each of the DS0 channels need to be mapped to a channel group. The example which follows displays how 31 channels, from 1-31, are mapped to a channel group.

Example

config-DigitalInterface-1# map 1..31 cg sl4dv1di1

From above example, sl4dv1di1 is a channel group identifier created earlier by the system or by the user. If it is created by the system, this mapping may have already been done at the initial system database creation. Otherwise, create a channel group as follows:

config-DigitalInterface-1# new cg slNdv1diM

For these channels in the group to be usuable, they must be associated with a signaling group or routing group. See below for an example.

Example

config-ChannelGroup-sl4dv1di1# set ISDNSignalingGroup 1 (sets ISDN Signaling Group with ID = 1)

config-ChannelGroup-sl4dv1di1# set LineCircuitRoutingGroup 1 (sets Line CircuitRoutingGroup)

Digital Interface

Under Master Chassis, appears Slots, Device and Digital Interface. The Device is a physical board that exists within the chassis. Device 1 is the main system board, the System Controller. Device 2 and 3 refer to daughter boards. If no daughter boards are installed, only Device 1 is valid. Issuing a show command from the device level will show any settings at the device level and any digital interfaces that might be present on the board.
