Trunking, Fractional PRI Configuration

Page 50 highlights

Recommended Configurations Chapter 1 Product Overview Trunking The Catalyst 4224 supports only dot1Q trunking. Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP) is not supported. A Catalyst switch that is trunked to the Catalyst 4224 must have the trunking mode set to either On or No negotiate and type dot1q. Fractional PRI Configuration The maximum of 16 channels are available for trunk voice ports. This can cause a problem when a PSTN or PBX uses an unavailable channel to send a call to the Catalyst 4224. To prevent this type of problem, follow this procedure: Step 1 Step 2 Always configure the Primary Rate Interface (PRI) VIC last (after you configure all the VIC cards that require the DSP resources). Allocate all 24 time slots for the PRI group. The following sample configuration shows a configuration for the range command. controller T1 1/0 framing esf linecode b8zs pri-group timeslots 1-24 Note The DSP resources are not sufficient for the 24 time slots. Therefore you receive this message: insufficient DSP resources. Ignore this message. Note You need to tell the switch or PBX to make the time slots out-of-service. If you do not allocate 24 time slots, a SERVICE message is not sent for the unallocated time slots. This is an important caveat. Step 3 Use the show voice dsp command to see how many channels are allocated with the available DSP resources. In a test case, 16 time slots could be allocated DSP resources. 1-24 Catalyst 4224 Access Gateway Switch Software Configuration Guide OL-2031-02

Trunking
The Catalyst 4224 supports only dot1Q trunking. Dynamic Trunking Protocol
(DTP) is not supported. A Catalyst switch that is trunked to the Catalyst 4224
must have the trunking mode set to either
On
or
No negotiate
and type
dot1q
.
Fractional PRI Configuration
The maximum of 16 channels are available for trunk voice ports. This can cause
a problem when a PSTN or PBX uses an unavailable channel to send a call to the
Catalyst 4224. To prevent this type of problem, follow this procedure:
Step 1
Always configure the Primary Rate Interface (PRI) VIC last (after you configure
all the VIC cards that require the DSP resources).
Step 2
Allocate all 24 time slots for the PRI group. The following sample configuration
shows a configuration for the range command.
controller T1 1/0
framing esf
linecode b8zs
pri-group timeslots 1-24
Note
The DSP resources are not sufficient for the 24 time slots. Therefore
you receive this message:
insufficient DSP resources
. Ignore this
message.
Note
You need to tell the switch or PBX to make the time slots
out-of-service. If you do not allocate 24 time slots, a SERVICE
message is not sent for the unallocated time slots. This is an important
caveat.
Step 3
Use the
show voice dsp
command to see how many channels are allocated with
the available DSP resources. In a test case, 16 time slots could be allocated DSP
resources.
