Troubleshooting the Cisco EGW 2200 with Alarms
This section contains procedures for the Cisco EGW 2200 alarms that require you to perform specific corrective actions.You can find a complete list of the alarms in Cisco EGW 2200 Alarms.
Alarm Troubleshooting Information
Corrective actions for Cisco EGW 2200 alarms are listed below.
All Conn Cntl Links Fail
This alarm occurs when the all of the MGCP IP links fail.
Corrective Action
To correct the problem identified by this alarm, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Collect diagnostic information from your system. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
Step 2 Verify that the Ethernet interfaces between the Cisco EGW 2200 and the associated media gateway are working properly.
You can determine the status of the Ethernet interfaces on the Cisco EGW 2200 using the Cisco IPT Platform Administration application. Refer to the online help topic for this subject for more information. You can find information on verifying the proper functioning of an Ethernet interface on the media gateway in the associated documentation.
If the Ethernet connections are working correctly, proceed to Step 4. Otherwise, proceed to Step 3.
Step 3 If an element of the Ethernet connection (such as a cable or an Ethernet interface card) is not working properly, replace it. Once the replacement is complete, return to Step 2.
Information on removing and replacing an Ethernet interface card on either platform can be found in the documentation that came with the platform.
Step 4 Verify that the MGCP sessions are operating normally. Refer to the documentation for the affected media gateway for more information on verifying the functioning of the MGCP sessions.
If the MGCP sessions are not operating normally, return the MGCP sessions to normal operations, as described in the documentation for the affected media gateway. Otherwise, proceed to Step 5.
Step 5 Contact the Cisco TAC to further analyze the problem and determine a solution. For more information about contacting the Cisco TAC, refer to Obtaining Technical Assistance.

Performing a Call Trace
Perform the following steps when the corrective actions indicate you should perform a call trace:
Step 1 If you have not already done so, collect diagnostic information from your system. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
Step 2 Perform a call trace on the affected interface. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
Note The affected interface can be determined using the content of the EGW Component field of the EGW Alarms screen. For information on identifying the inteface associated with a component, refer to the Identifying Alarms Components section of Cisco EGW 2200 Alarms..
Note Call trace information is only available to review for 48 hours after the trace has terminated.
Caution Running a call trace impacts call processing on your system. Cisco recommends that you take the following guidelines into consideration before enacting call traces:
Execute call traces for only the amount of time necessary to collect the required debug data for your particular situation. Allowing call traces to perpetuate can severely impact CPU availability, leading to less-than-optimum call processing in your system. As the default duration for a call trace is 30 minutes, you could potentially impact your system's ability to process calls for 30 minutes or more, depending on how many traces have been enacted and at what interval.
Execute call traces during off-peak hours to help minimize CPU impact and prevent less-than-optimum call processing in your system.
Step 3 Contact the Cisco TAC to further analyze the problem and determine a solution. For more information about contacting the Cisco TAC, refer to Obtaining Technical Assistance.
Resolving a Dial Plan Alarm
When referred here by an alarm indicating a failure of a dial plan, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Collect diagnostic information from your system. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
Step 2 View the settings for the affected dial plan, searching for any errors. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
If the settings for your dial plan are correct, proceed the Step 4.
If the settings for your dial plan are incorrect, proceed to Step 3.
Step 3 Modify the incorrect settings for the affected dial plan. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
If the alarm clears automatically, the procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 4.
Step 4 Perform a call trace and contact the Cisco TAC to further analyze the problem and determine a solution, as described in Performing a Call Trace.
Resolving an Association Alarm
When referred here by an alarm indicating a failure on an association, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Collect diagnostic information from your system. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
Step 2 Verify the functioning of the cabling between the Cisco EGW 2200 and the destination address.
If the cables are functioning properly, proceed to Step 4.
If bad cable(s) are found, replace them. If that resolves the problem, the procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 3.
Step 3 Verify the functioning of the associated Cisco switch.
If the switch is functioning properly, proceed to Step 6.
If the switch is not functioning properly, refer to the documentation for your switch for troubleshooting information. If that corrects the problem, the procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 6.
Step 4 Debug the IP connectivity between the Cisco EGW 2200 and the associated media gateway.
If the IP connectivity is working correctly, proceed to Step 5.
If the IP connectivity is not working correctly, refer to the documentation for the external node to determine a method to identify and fix the IP connectivity problem. If that corrects the problem, the procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 5.
Step 5 Determine the health of the associated media gateway.
If the media gateway is working correctly, proceed to Step 6.
If the media gateway is not healthy, refer to the documentation for the external node for troubleshooting information. If that corrects the problem, the procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 6.
Step 6 Contact the Cisco TAC to further analyze the problem and determine a solution. For more information about contacting the Cisco TAC, refer to Obtaining Technical Assistance.
Resolving a Failed Connection to a Peer
If you have lost connection to a peer component in your network, perform the following procedure to resolve the problem:
Step 1 Collect diagnostic information from your system. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information on this subject.
Step 2 Verify that the interface to the affected peer is out-of-service. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information.
If the destination is in-service, or there is no destination associated with the peer, proceed to Step 3.
If the destination associated with the peer is out-of-service, bring the destination back into service. Refer to the Cisco EGW Administration online help for more information.
If that resolves the problem, this procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 3.
Step 3 Ensure that the data path to the peer is working correctly.
If the data path to the peer is working correctly, proceed to Step 5.
If the data path to the peer is not working correctly, proceed to Step 4.
Step 4 Log in to the peer identified in Step 3 and verify that the Ethernet interfaces for this peer are working correctly. Refer to the documentation for the peer for more information.
If the Ethernet interfaces are working properly, proceed to Step 5.
If the Ethernet interfaces are not working properly, replace the element that is not working properly. Refer to the documentation of the peer for more information. If that resolves the problem, the procedure is complete. Otherwise, proceed to Step 5.
Step 5 Contact the Cisco TAC to further analyze the problem and determine a solution. For more information about contacting the Cisco TAC, refer to Obtaining Technical Assistance.
