Outbound Call issues on FXS Ports on h323 VG with IOS 15

Derek McCormick
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

Are there any known restrictions with FXS ports with IOS 15 on voice gateways? I have a fax machine plugged into a fxs port on a 2901 router. When I make an inbound call, the call connects straight away to the fax. However, when I attempt to send a fax outbound , it fails. When I debug the dialpeer activity, I see the call failing to match an outbound dialpeer. My understanding is that the dialpeer 2 and 3 should match for outgoing. This is the case for other sites that i have configured on lower versions of IOS. I have tried using an analogue phone to rule out the fax machine also and the problem still remains. My config is below. Has anyone come accross this issue?

Thanks,
Derek

Check with "debug isdn q931" if the number is dialed.

You also need network-clock-select to be on the PRI interface

Also, you don;t need the progress_ind commands, and a more exact destination-pattern would help

its bri interfaces , not PRI. Its not dialing because the outbound dialpeer is not matched. it is not reaching an ISDN level yet, so debugging isdn q931 will not show anything

Are you dialing 0?

With multiple PRIs, you can also use trunk groups, and a single dial-peer.

it is not a PRI, it is a BRI and yes  I am dialling 0 and the number

Ok,correction taken. Configure

no dial-peer outbound status-check

Again, best results are had with trunk groups and mattching destination-pattern.

this command seems to be used in relation to the dial peer being down. This is not the case.. All dial peers are up. The problem, is when the outbound call comes in made from the fax machine or analogue phone, it does not match the an outbound dial peer... All other outbound calls work fine though the dial peers and inbound fax calls are fine too

The command is absolutely necessary for BRI.

Please configure it and let us know the effects.

This was an IOS bug. Once I upgraded to to 15.1, the problem disappeared
