Configuring Voice over IP for Cisco MC3810 Series Concentrators 3
(c) Configuring IP RTP Priority
Refer to the “Configuring IP Networks for Real-Time Voice Traffic” section for information
about how to select and configure the appropriate QoS tools to optimize voice traffic on your
network.
3 Configuring Number Expansion
Use the num-exp command to configure number expansion if your telephone network is
configured so that you can reach a destination by dialing only a portion (an extension number) of
the full E.164 telephone number. Refer to the “Configuring Number Expansion” section for
information about number expansion.
4 Configuring Dial Peers
Use the dial-peer voice command to define dial peers and switch to the dial-peer configuration
mode. Each dial peer defines the characteristics associated with a call leg. A call leg is a discrete
segment of a call connection that lies between two points in the connection. An end-to-end call
is comprised of four call legs, two from the perspective of the source access server, and two from
the perspective of the destination access server. Dial peers are used to applyattributes to call legs
and to identify call origin and destination. There are two different kinds of dial peers:
(a) POTS—Dial peer describing the characteristics of a traditional telephony network
connection. POTS peers point to a particular voice port on a voice network device. To
minimally configure a POTS dial peer, you need to configure the following two
characteristics: associated telephone number and logical interface. Use the
destination-pattern command to associate a telephone number with a POTS peer. Use the
port command to associate a specific logical interface with a POTS peer. In addition, you
can specify direct inward dialing for a POTS peer by using the direct-inward-dial
command.
(b) VoIP—Dial peer describing the characteristics of a packet network connection; in the case
of Voice over IP, this is an IP network. VoIP peers point to specific VoIP devices. To
minimally configure a VoIP peer, you need to configure the following two characteristics:
associated destination telephone number and a destination IP address. Use the
destination-pattern command to define the destination telephone number associated with
a VoIP peer. Use the sessiontarget command to specify a destination IP address for a VoIP
peer.
Refer to the “Configuring Dial Peers” section for additional information about configuring dial
peers and dial-peer characteristics.
5 Optimizing Dial Peer and Network Interface Configurations
You can use VoIP peers to define characteristics such as IP precedence, CODEC, and VAD. Use
the ip precedence command to define IP precedence. Use the codec command to configure
specific voice coder rates. Use the vad command to disable voice activation detection and the
transmission of silence packets. Refer to the “Optimizing Dial Peer and Network Interface
Configurations” section for additional information about optimizing dial-peer characteristics.
6 Configuring Voice Ports
You need to configure your Cisco MC3810 concentrator to support voice ports. In general,
voice-port commands define the characteristics associated with a particular voice-port signaling
type. Voice ports on the Cisco MC3810 concentrator support three basic voice signaling types:
(a) FXO—Foreign Exchange Office interface
(b) FXS—The Foreign Exchange Station interface
(c) E&M—The “Ear and Mouth” interface (or “RecEive and TransMit” interface)
