Block incoming call on H.323 Gateway

[scooter817]

Hi everyone

I have a number that I want to block on  one of our gateways and I wanted to know can someone look over my commands because I used my number as a test to see if it would work and I can still reach the office.

Voice translation rule to block a number
---------------------------------------
voice translation-rule 10
rule 1 reject /7606227654/
 
 
Apply the rule to a translation profile for the calling number
--------------------------------------------------------------
voice translation-profile call_block
translate calling 1
 
 
Include the translation profile within a dial peer definition
--------------------------------------------------------------
dial-peer voice 9001  pots
call-block translation-profile incoming call_block
 
 
Invoke the voice translation profile “call_block
-------------------------------------------------
call-block disconnect-cause incoming call-reject
incoming called-number 7606227654
direct-inward-dial

 
Match this peer for all inbound POTS calls
--------------------------------------------
port 1/0:23

The configuration you list looks right to me. Have you run any debugging to verify you're matching dial-peer 9001? You can use "debug ccapi inout" to see what dial-peer is getting matched.

If you have 2 GW at the site would I have to place the rule on both GW, because I'm matching dial-peer 9001. I looked at what was active when I was on the call my number is the 2066 number I called them on and they are 2000

I see the issue... You're translating the calling number that matches /7606227654/, and your incoming called-number is 7606227654. Unless you're calling from and to 7606227654, the call won't be blocked with this configuration.

If you want to block all calls to 7606227654, change "translate calling 1" to "translate called 1". If you want to block all calls from a specific number, instead change your reject rule to match the caller's number.

That's what I thought I had done, so would  you look at  this and tell me if this is correct becuase I want to block a person from calling the office.

You've got everything except the "incoming called-number" correct. I would leave "incoming called-number" as however you had it configured previous to your changes.

Don't confuse "called number" with "calling number". Here's a good example for you... Let's say my phone is 234-567-8910, and I'm calling your gateway at 760-622-7654. From your gateway's perspective, the "called number" would be 760-622-7654 (assuming the telco provides all 10 digits), and the "calling number" would be 234-567-8910.

My manager just told me that the 9001 dial-peer is pots but it's for outbound calls only and that I should apply the rule to dial-peer 1001 which is voip. so when I do the command there is no port 1/0:23 to match the peer for inbound calls. so now how would I change the command work on a voip dial peer.

Hi scooter817,

What´s your CUCM Version? blocking incoming calls on gateway is a bit stressful, you can block calls by calling party number from CUCM, this is very easy.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Regards.

Hi Emmanuel

I have a person who is calling our office 713 547-4000  from 513 701-3242 and I want to block the 513 701-3242 from reaching our office.

Hi scooter817,

What´s your CUCM Version?

This config works from CUCM 8.x and later.
