Voice Connections

The voice commands apply to the setting up, configuring, and statistical reporting for voice connections (including FAX). In addition to the command descriptions, this chapter describes how to set up the voice connection, configure voice redundancy, use VAD, and configure voice channel utilization.

Voice connections exist as ports on circuit lines that are supported by either a CDP in an IPX or a CVM in an IGX. The back card for the CDP or CVM is either a BC-T1, BC-E1, or BC-J1.

Setting Up a Voice Connection

The following steps describe how to set up a voice connection:

Step 1 First configure the voice channel at each end of the connection. The channel is expressed as card slot.channel. For example, 6.3 is channel 3 in card slot 6. The configurable parameters and their associated commands are as follows.

	· cnfchadv	Configures the channel for Adaptive Voice (ADV). This command enables or disables adaptive voice compression for one or a range of voice channels. The feature must be configured at both ends of the channel.
	· cnfchdl	Configures the dial type for the channel. The options are inband (default), pulse and user configured.
	· cnfchec	Configure the echo canceller for the channel. The command enables or disable the echo canceller for a range of voice channel, sets the echo return loss to high or low and enables/disables the tone disabler, convergence, and non-linear processing.
	· cnfchgn	Configures the amount of gain inserted in a voice channel.
	· cnfcond	Configures a conditioning template for the channel.
	· cnfcondsc	Configures a connection descriptor for the channel.
	· cnfrcvsig	Configures receive signalling for the channel.
	· cnfxmtsig	Configures transmit signalling for the channel.
	· cnfvchtp	Configures a voice interface type for the channel.
	· cnfchutl	Configures the channel utilization (refer to Chapter 11, "Optimizing Traffic Routing and Bandwidth").
	· addyred	Enables voice channel redundancy.

Step 2 Add the connection with the addcon command. The above configuration must have been completed at each end before the connection can be added.

Configuring Voice Channel Redundancy

You can configure voice channels for redundancy by installing two identical sets of front and back card pairs in adjacent slots and connecting to the customer-equipment through a Y-cable, then:

Use the addyred command to establish the redundant connection between the two card sets.
Use the delyred command to remove redundancy from a redundant pair.

Using VAD and Configuring Voice Channel Utilization

The bandwidth savings you gain by using VAD are less than optimal if you do not set the utilization of the voice channels to a reasonable value. To configure the utilization for voice channels, use the cnfchutl command.

addcon

Establishes the channel connections between nodes in the network. You can add connections to any slot that has a CDP or CVM. Before you add a connection, determine the compression type you want for the connection. Table 7-2 describes what you enter for the type parameter for each rate and compression variable. Two possible types are available for each rate and

When connecting sets of voice channels, you do not have to specify the full channel set for this end of the connection. You only have to designate the first channel in the set. For example, to connect channels 13.1-10 at alpha to channels 12.5-14 at beta, you could enter "addcon 13.1-10 beta 12.5". In this example, channel 13.1 is connected to channel 12.5, channel 13.2 is connected to channel 12.6 and so on.

Connections are added with a default class of service (COS). For voice traffic, the value of COS is the number of seconds the node waits before it reroutes the connection after a failure. The COS applies to various types of connections other than voice and therefore is described elsewhere. Refer to the cnfcos description in the chapter titled "Optimizing Traffic Routing and Bandwidth."

The difference between a PCM (p) connection and a transparent (t) connection is that the D4 frame signalling bits are identified and processed as signalling information with PCM connections. PCM connections permit gain adjustment to be applied to the connection. Transparent connections treat all bits, including signalling bits, as data bits and disables any gain adjustment conversion that you may have specified.

The number in the type field indicates the ADPCM rates in Kbps. The "z" suffix indicates that 00 code level is used. Type a16 or c16 uses only 01, 10, and 11 binary codes to avoid long strings of zeroes. Type a16z and c16z connections use the 00 code and are automatically configured to avoid ZCS lines (*Z).

addcon 7.2 beta 8.2 v

Description

Add a "v" type voice connection. This command connects channel 7.2 on node alpha to channel 8.2 on node beta. A prompt appears asking you to confirm the proposed connections.

Connection type is "v," "class of service" (COS) is "2," compression is VAD, and ownership is local. For an explanation of COS, see the cnfcos description in the chapter titled "Optimizing Traffic Routing and Bandwidth." Because you are entering the addcon command at node alpha, the node alpha is the owner of the connection.

cnfchadv

Enables the Adaptive Voice feature for individual channels. The Adaptive Voice feature must also exist at each node that terminates the connection. The channel-specific cnfchadv has no effect at nodes that do not have Adaptive Voice.

If the Adaptive Voice feature is enabled for a channel with a "c" or "v" connections, VAD is automatically disabled on that channel when trunk bandwidth is available and enabled when trunk bandwidth is needed. If the Adaptive Voice feature is not enabled for a channel with a "c" or "v" connections, VAD is always turned on for that channel. In order for a voice ("c" or "v") connection to use Adaptive Voice, both ends must have Adaptive Voice enabled with the cnfchadv command.

cnfchdl

Configures the dial type for a channel or set of channels. The dial type may be inband, pulse, or user configured. The user configured option allows non-default timing values to be used. The parameters associated with the cnfchdl command are timing constants used to ensure that signalling pulses are not distorted in time by transmission through the network.

Dial type determines the signalling message timing for a connection. Dial type is ignored for DS0 data connections.
When you add an inband or pulse dial type to a channel, the channel configuration screen appears, showing the designated dial types for each channel.
When you add a user-configured dial type, a more detailed screen appears, showing the dial type as well as the signalling delay, minimum wink, interdigit times, and playout delay.

If you select inband, the node assumes that the A and B bits are not used for loop-disconnect dialing. Therefore, any change in signalling bit status goes in a packet to the far end of the connection.

If you select pulse, the transmitting node waits (normally 72 msec) after an A or B bit transition for another transition to arrive. If one does, the new transition is incorporated into the same signalling packet that is sent to the far end of the connection. This increases the delay of the signalling transition across the network, but decreases the amount of trunk bandwidth used for signalling.

If the default timings are not correct for the network, you must configure the options. The dialing type should be set correctly. If a connection-designated pulse is used for inband signalling, a greater then necessary delay across the network results. If a connection-designated inband is used for pulse signalling, the relative timing of signalling transitions may be lost and so distort the pulses.

cnfchgn

Configures the amount of gain inserted by the IPX or IGX mode for a given circuit line channel or range of channels. Gain can be configured between +6 dB and -8 dB. The input gain is inserted at the receive side of a CDP or CVM and is therefore applied before the signal is packetized by the card. The output gain is inserted at the transmit side of a CDP or CVM and is applied after the signal has been depacketized by the card. Gain is ignored for channels used in data connections.

Parameter Description

channel

gain

Specifies the gain, in decibels, to assign to the channel. The range is -8 dB to +6 dB.

cnfcond

Creates a conditioning template that specifies the bit patterns to be transmitted for each of the T1 and E1 timeslots and their A, B, C, and D signalling bits while the channel is in the failed state. Its purpose is to prevent the signalling bits from returning to the idle (on-hook) bit pattern during a channel failure and to force a known bit pattern (usually busy). If a connection fails and the template has been specified as the conditioning template for the failed connection, the data parameter in the template is transmitted in the channels timeslot, and the A, B, C, and D bits are processed according to the specified parameters.

A two-character sequence in the id parameter field identifies the template. The `Data Pattern' field displays the pattern transmitted in the channels timeslot. The `Signalling Pattern' field displays the pattern transmitted in the channel's A, B, C, and D signalling bit positions. Each of the A, B, C, and D signalling bits are specified independently and may be held high or low or toggled to the on-hook condition for a short time then off-hook (the name of this latter action is a wink). You can control the timing of the bit-toggling by specifying the duration of winks in increments of 50 msec.

A typical failure response is for the node to:

1. Transmit idle characters in the channel's timeslot

2. Signal off-hook for a period of 2 seconds

3. Return permanently to the on-hook condition.

Parameter	Description
id	Specifies the identifier of conditioning template. The identifier may be any two character combination of lowercase letters (a-z) and numeric digits (0-9).
data	Specifies an eight-bit binary string to use instead of the voice in the event the channel fails.
A bit B bit C bit D bit	Specifies the signalling sequence to be transmitted for these bits in the event of channel failure. Each of these four parameters may be set independently. Each element in the sequence is expressed as a 1 or 0 (to indicate the logic state of the line) followed by a number in parenthesis to indicate the duration that state is to be held on the channel. The duration number is expressed in 50 msec intervals. For example, if <B> is set to 1(40); upon a channel failure, the B bit is held to the 1 state for a period of 2 seconds (40 x 50 msec = 2 seconds). If the duration value is omitted, the state is held permanently. So <C> set to 0 would cause the C bit to be held permanently to 0 during a failed channel condition. A sequence of states can be specified by entering several states separated by slash symbols. A maximum of 5 states in sequence can be specified. For example, <A> set to 1(40)/0(20)/1 would cause, upon a failure of the c

cnfvchtp

Configures an interface signalling type for a voice channel. Most standard signalling types are maintained by the node, but a custom template may be built by the user. Entering the cnfvchtp command without a specific interface number, the system presents you with a list of valid interface types and their associated onhook and conditioning information.

To assign an interface type (and its associated onhook and conditioning information) to the channel or set of channels, enter the number of the desired interface type. As mentioned previously, type "1" requires user configuration. Interface type is ignored for "d" type connections.

Example 2

cnfvchtp 15.5-8 1 X X - - b

Description

Configure a user configurable interface type for channel 15.1 to 15.8. The channel configuration screen shows that channels 5-8 of circuit line 15 now has a user-configured interface type with an A-bit on-hook value of "X", a B-bit on-hook value of "X", an C-bit on-hook value of not used, D-bit on-hook value of not used, and conditioning template b.

Parameter	Description
channel	Specifies the channel or range of channels for which to configure the interface type.
interface type	Specifies the number of the interface type to assign to the channel or range of channels. These types are listed below. The Onhook column has A bits on the left and B bits on the right. The conditioning column has different types of conditioning specified. If you designate interface type number 1 to indicate a user-configured interface type, the system prompts for: onhook A, onhook B, onhook C (if applicable), onhook D (if applicable), conditioning A, conditioning B, conditioning C (if applicable), conditioning D (if applicable), and conditioning template information. When the IPX or IGX receives A, B, C, and D bits corresponding to the onhook values, that channel is known to be onhook. If the A, B, C, and D bits do not correspond to the onhook values, that channel is known be offhook
onhook A	A-bit value for the onhook state of a channel or set of channels.
onhook B	B-bit value for the on-hook state of a channel or set of channels.
onhook C	C-bit value for the on-hook state of a channel or set of channels.
onhook D	D-bit value for the on-hook state of a channel or set of channels. Possible values are: 1 high 0 low X don't care ? don't know - not used
conditioning template	One of many predefined or user-defined conditioning templates in the range of 00000000 to 11111111. (See dspcond and cnfcond commands). Each interface type, except for option 1, has a predetermined conditioning template associated with it. These represent the A, B, C, D bit values as well as the substitute PCM voice sample sent to the attached equipment in case the voice connection fails for any reason.

Table 7-28: dspconst - Optional Parameters

Parameter Description

circuit line

Specifies the number of the circuit line for which to display the channel states. If no circuit line is specified, all upped circuit lines, up to 8, display.

dspsigqual

Displays the configuration for the A, B, C, and D bit signalling qualifiers for all channels. The only parameter is the starting channel. You set the values for these signalling bits with the cnfrcvsig and cnfxmtsig commands. Note that these signaling bit states are different from the states during circuit alarm (signalling conditioning).

During normal operation of the voice circuit, the A, B, C, and D signalling bits may be held at a fixed value (0 or 1), inverted (I), or passed through transparently (T). For the direction of the signals, the transmit direction is towards the PBX or channel bank. Receive is from the external equipment.

Type	The type of connection (v = voice, d = data, fr = frame relay, atfr = ATM to frame relay interworking, atfst = ATM to frame relay interworking with ForeSight, -fail = failed connections; data rate in kbps for data)
Route Avoid	The type of lines to avoid when routing (satellite lines, terrestrial lines, lines with zero code suppression).
Compression	The type of compression applied to the connection (PCM, PCM and VAD, ADPCM, VAD and ADPCM for voice connections), (DFM for data connections).

Loopback	A connection with a local loopback is indicated by a right parenthesis symbol between the "Local Channel" and "Remote NodeName" columns. A frame relay connection with a port loopback is indicated by a right bracket symbol between the "Local Channel" and "Remote NodeName" columns. A connection with a remote loopback is indicated by a right parenthesis symbol before the channel number in the "Remote Channel" column.
Local/Remote A-bit	A-bit status on the local and remote nodes if -abit option selected. Note that -abit is incompatible with -v, -d, and +d.

Parameter	Description
start channel	Specifies the channel to begin the display. The start channel is specified as follows: slot.channel \| slot.port.dlci \| slot.vpi.vci
node name	Specifies that only connections to this remote node from the local note be displayed. If no "nodename" is designated, connections from the local node to all other nodes are displayed.
connection type	Specifies that only connections of this type be displayed. If no "connection type" is designated, all connections appear. When you enter the connection type on the command line, precede it with a hyphen (-). Valid connection types to display are: -v Displays only voice connections. -d Display only data connections. -f Displays frame relay connections. -abit Shows A-bit (nni) status. -fabit Shows connections with failed A-bit (nni) status.
+d	Causes the display to show the user-configurable descriptor for the connection instead of the compression and ownership fields.
