Cisco Unified Border Element

[preeve]

Currently configuring a Cisco Unified Border Element on a Cisco 3945 router.  I am trying to configure a software MTP on the router and not use the UCM for the MTP.  Does telephony-service need to be turned up on the CUBE for this to work?

Hi

The telephony-service is a mode in a router which has used as CME.

You can Hardware MTP in the router using DSP farming.

Senthil,

Thanks for the comment.  My questions was, does this require to turn on "telephony-service" to use the MTP on the router and not UCM.  I do not want to use hardware MTP, because I do not want to use DSPs.  I know using software MTP will utilize cycles from the router.  Here is a sample config I would like to do:

sccp ccm group 1
bind interface Loopback0
associate profile 1 register cube_mtp2
!
dspfarm profile 1 mtp 
codec g711ulaw
maximum sessions software 500
associate application sccp

Will this accomplish using the router only and not pointing it to the UCM.  Hope this clarifies.
