External Bell/Ringer on FXS Port and VoIP Phone w/ Call Mgr 8.6

[CountryWhitely]

Hello,

I am trying to make an external bell ring at the same time when a Cisco VoIP phone is called.  The environment we are in is very loud and the ringer was great before we implemented VoIP.

I have the external bell connected to a FXS port off of my 2800 router.  When I call the number I asssigned to it, it rings.  I assigned the same number to a Cisco VoIP phone in Call Manager, but it only rings if I have the "destination-number 9195551212" removed from the FXS port.

I searched for ideas/answers on the board, and found that some said to use the stcapp option and to set the maximum call option to 2 or higher on the number in call manager.  However, this made no difference; I can either have the bell ring, or the number - but not both.

Anyone have any ideas?

port 0/1/2

*NOTE:  Number changed for example.

Thanks!

Configure the port in SCCP mode, instead of H.323 as it is now  (search)

Register it to CUCM as analofport device.

Configure a shared line appearing on said device, and an IP phone.

The two will ring in parallel, done.

Hello Paolo,

What if this is a CUBE with DIDs traversing across the MPLS link.  Inbound DID hits dial-peer on the FXS port of the CUBE will take presents over the phone configured in UCM and never ring?  I believe Country is asking this question but could be wrong?  But if you know this answer it will help me with a similiar issue I am having.

Thx
