Hello All,
So I've been assigned this new project to troubleshoot a sip trunk problem when the voice calls drop sometimes or the users hear undersea sounds.
They've been told that there is a CUBE in between the CUCM which is old (8.5) and the SIP trunk.
But it is not a cube because the command mode border-element has not been entered in voice service voip settings. ( Correct me if I'm wrong)
My question is first this is not a CUBE and is doing the task. What would be the difference and benefit of enabling the CUBE feature on this router.
I've read a lot about CUBE but can not differentiate between this config and a CUBE.
Second question is where should I start my troubleshooting process for the SIP problem?
This is the configuration from the VoIP router which is a 2811 ISR with IOS version Version 12.4(13r)T11.

The way I have always perceived it is that the mode border element command is pretty much only used as a way to enforce licensing. as opposed to a for instance a CME router, H323 or MGCP gateway. As far as I know running the command would not provide any additional fucntionality running it purely as a SIP-SIP (CUBE) Gw.

So you are telling that any gateways with a SIP-SIP connection is a CUBE?
Then if you can avoid that command, what's the goal of entering it???

Abtin,
yes, CUBE is very much a Cisco sales term more than anything else. Typically if you have an ISR that only does SIP and is used to sit in between you ITSP and CUCM, that is a CUBE/SIP-SIP (ore even IP IP gateway).
