H.323 Voice Gateway and SCCP Transcoder

stewart699700
Level 1
Level 1

I have a 2851 configured and working as an H.323 Voice Gateway, I also need this to provide some Transcoding!

So I've configured the router and CUCM for Transcoding however I am concerned I don't have enough DSP's available.

The Transcoder is configured and registered to CUCM but I cannot see any DSP channels:

Trowbridge_2851#show dspFarm ALL
Dspfarm Profile Configuration

Profile ID = 1, Service = TRANSCODING, Resource ID = 1
Profile Description :
Profile Admin State : DOWN
Profile Operation State : DOWN IN PROGRESS
Application : SCCP   Status : NOT ASSOCIATED
Resource Provider : FLEX_DSPRM   Status : UP
Number of Resource Configured : 10
Number of Resource Available : 10
Codec Configuration
Codec : g711ulaw, Maximum Packetization Period : 30
Codec : g711alaw, Maximum Packetization Period : 30
Codec : g729ar8, Maximum Packetization Period : 60
Codec : g729abr8, Maximum Packetization Period : 60
Codec : g729br8, Maximum Packetization Period : 60
Codec : g729r8, Maximum Packetization Period : 60

Total number of DSPFARM DSP channel(s) 0

Trowbridge_2851#

Is this because all my DSP's have been allocated to the E1 Controller or is it because I have not configured my DSP Farm correctly?

The Router has a PVDM card already installed and I'm about to install a PVDM2-16 in addition to this.

Hi,

First: you need to enable dspfarm on your voice-card:

voice-card 0

dspfarm

and then you need to open a transcoder:

dspfarm profile 1 transcode

no shut

What PVDM module do you currently have installed in this router? It is easy to calculate available DSP resources.

Regards,

Chris

Sorry yes I did shutdown the DSPFarm Profile to alter the Maximum Sessions.

It was Active and Registered but it did not show any DSP channels:

Total number of DSPFARM DSP channel(s) 0

You can do a 'sh diag' to check out the DSP resources you have.

Here's a link to calculate DSP resources : http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Support/DSP/cisco_dsp_calc.pl

This is looking better, I installed tyhe new DSP and run the "dspfarm", command under the Voicecard.

I now get this:

If I needed to debug the IOS Transcoder is there any useful debugs I should run, "debug voice ccapi" is giving me some output but is there anything more specific?

sh sccp connection, to see the endpoints to which the transcoder is connected

debug sccp packets, to see the skinny message exachange between CCM and the transcoder
