No DTMF on inbound SIP call from CUBE to CUCM6

sktlwaltt1 · ‎06-11-2009

Hello. I have a Cube Version 12.4(24)T, and I have DTMF tone problems.

Tones outbound to the service provider and work fine.

Tones inbound to the CUCM don't. I do not hear the tones in band (this is good). I have debugged the cube and see the rcf 2833 events signaling there are tones inbound from the provider to the cube but to from the cube to the CUCM there are no dtmf tones are not recognized.

I sniffed the inbound traffic to see RFC 2833 events to the cube, but unknown protocol packets passed to the CUCM.

I am testing the tones by forwarding my IP set to unity and trying to answer my VM.

Here is my config does anyone see any huge errors? Is this a transcoding issue. A dsp issue? or a IOS software issue? Config issue?

Your problem is related to incoming called number . on the 103 dial peer. Incoming called number . is the first check for an incoming dial peer, and will apply those settings to every incoming call, regardless of protocol.

Thus, you will have your SIP DTMF method applied to all incoming H323 calls as well.

I would check out this document:

And this post will explain more:

Nick I read the posts and reconfigured the Cube.

Here is my new dial peer config.

Still getting no dtmf to unity. Where does the dtmf-relay rtp-nte command need to go? inbound from the Sip provider or on the leg to the cucm, or both? Does CUCM only want to see dtmf-relay rtp-nte on the inbound SIP trunk?

I didn't notice initially that you were doing SIP-SIP.

In this case RTP-NTE is the preferred method. However, MTPs are required in CUCM for RFC 2833 to be generated under most circumstances. Try checking 'MTP Required' on the SIP trunk. As well, check the phone page to see if you can enable RFC 2833 there as well.

Nick

I have a MTP configured and have it checked on the Sip trunk. There is only a disable rfc2833 on the phone settings.

When i trace the call in CUCM i see the call come in and negoate the DTMF but when transfered to unity no luck.

Any other ideas.

Hi Trent,

I would 'debug voip rtp session named' and make sure you see it in the Rcv and Snd directions.

If you do a packet capture you can use the wireshark filter 'rtpevent' to see if they are there or not.

Nick i have debugged the voip trp session named and see the messages send and rcv.

Test 1: From a CME to the CUCM6 on a sip trunk via cube, could see messages forwarded to the endpoint and worked when forwarded to unity. payload type 101

Test 2:form sip provider to CUCM6 on sip trunk via cube, can see the messages getting here but not forwarding to the endpoint payload type 120.

I will attach a sniff of the test 2 call.

Thanks for you time.

Trent,

On the CUBE for the SIP dial-peer that point to CUCM, can you change the dtmf-relay from rtp-nte to sip-kpml.

On CUCM you need to uncheck the 'MTP required' checkbox and reset the trunk.

Try calling from PSTN to Unity and see if dtmf works.

Thanks,

Nicholas Matthews · ‎06-12-2009

Looks like you have a payload type mismatch.

You can try adding this on your dial peer pointing towards CUCM:

dial-peer voice x

rtp payload nte 120

Hello. Update.

Turns out the provider was giving me bad information. They said they were sending rfc 2833 but really sending RAW tones.

So I configured a transcoder on the CUBE and started a telephoney service and assocated the transcoder to the CUBE.

I also still have a MTP registered to the CUCM for the SIP trunks.

When i have both MTP to the CUCM and the Transcoder to the CUBE online i have no audio passing from the CUCM via cube to Provider.

When i shut down the transcoder on the cube i can get audio passthrough but no dtmf is being transcoded.

I'm about ready to give up on sip....

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Trent,

It's hard to speculate what the problem could be there. If possible, you could try getting rid of the MTP completely.

For troubleshooting purposes, you can also:

-Try moving the MTP to the gateway using software or hardware resources

-Reset MTPs, SCCP, trunks, Callmanager service

-Upgrade IOS on CUBE to the latest

-Remove MTP Required from SIP trunk

It sounds like a bug of some sort, or improper use of features. Try to trim this down to as few features as possible on your CUBE.
