We are a small (<100 person) company running CUCME 8.6.   Is there a simple way to enable call logging history without having to collect the logs off-box?   I am looking for a way to simply keep a log of the past 200-300 calls (we don't do that much voice calling from this office), logged to local flash on the CUCME router, so that I can see which phones are calling what numbers if an audit is required. ...

We are transitioning from a UC560 router acting as our CME/CUE VoIP server, to a full blown C2951 with CME 10.0 and CUE 8.6.7. Can I use CCA as a GUI based configuration tool, the same as I was able to on the UC560?   Or do I need to perform all my configuration setup on the new VoIP router at the CLI?   Or is there another GUI based tool that can be used to help configure my new VoIP server? ...

Where would I find instructions for how to install the CME 10.0 admin GUI files to flash on a C2951 router, and then to access the GUI?   I believe I've untarred the files properly to flash but am still having some issues in getting the Call Manager Express GUI to work.   ... View more

Does anyone know what the difference is between the two CME 10.0 rar files listed here:   http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=277641082&softwareid=282786567&release=10.0&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest   They're both the same size, and yet one set is tagged as v1 and the other as v2?    Which one contains the most current GUI files for CME 10.0 running on IOS 15.4.2?     ...

I am building out a brand new C2951, to become the new VoIP server for my mid-size business. I noticed that the CME 10.0 files are in .rar format, not a tarball like normal.   What is the process for decompressing the rar file and then copying the files from my tftp server onto the flash file system of the C2951 router?   Specifically what is the syntax for the commands that I need to issue from the C2951 router? ...

We have a Cisco SG300-50P small business switch. which is the physical backbone for our VoIP network.   Our Cisco CME/CUE router connects to one of the 1GbE ports on the switch, and all the phones are Cisco IP79xx models, connecting to the 10/100 ports (all configured as access ports). I've noticed that there's a large amount of activity across all the ports on the switch (broadcast traffic?) so my question is why would the network be so noisy with broadcast traffic even when the phones aren't actively passing voice traffic, and what should I be doing to alleviate some of the excessive broadcast traffic that I'm seeing on this network? ...

I seem to recall that Best Practice on a Cisco switch acting as a dedicated VoIP endpoint switch (i.e. only serving PoE IP phones) to configure the ports to use multicast to dramatically reduce the amount of broadcast traffic on the VoIP switching backplane. If my VoIP server is at IP 192.168.1.2, connected to port 50 (GigEthernet) on my SG300-50P switch, what should the multicast configuration look like so that the phones on the PoE edge ports use multicast when booting and getting their configuration via tftp from the VoIP server? ...

I have configured two of the FXS ports on our UC560, to act as analog ports for fax machines.   Each FXS port has been configured with an extension from our publicly routable DID range, and the ports are configured for Loop Start. However, I am not getting any actual dial tone on the ports, so when I attempt to call into one of the fax numbers, the fax machine (which is set for immediate answer) gets a signal that the analog line is trying to initiate communications and the fax machine initializes itself into receiving mode, but because there isn't any dial tone, the sender's side just continues to ring and ring and ring. Additionally, when I attempt to fax out from the fax machine, there is never any initial dial tone on the line so the machine dials out and then immediately starts attempting to initiate a fax handshake, but there's still no dial tone on the FXS line at any point during the process. Am I meant to set something else other than the FXS port setting under Telephony -> Ports and Trunks -> FXS Ports, and then assigning the DIDs under Telephony -> Users/Extensions -> Analog Extensions? ...

How can I assign one of my inbound DIDs, coming into my UC560 from my carrier's PRI, to be used for an analog device, such as a fax machine? Do I do this by defining one of the FXS ports (i.e. 0/0/0) for a fax device?   Do I then need to connect FXO port 0/0/0 to the fax machine, or will the tone be generated from the FXS port? ...

I'm curious about how the AnyConnect client determines what its default Link Speed is, upon initialization?   For example, from behind my home firewall, if I have a client that's physically connected to a 1Gbps uplink, when I launch the AnyConnect client, Windows Task Manager shows me a Link Speed of 9 Mbps for my AnyConnect connection. However, if I also launch an AnyConnect connection from another machine on my home LAN, connected via 300Mbps WiFi, Windows Task Manager will only show me around a 1 Mbps Link Speed. How does the AnyConnect client calculate its Link Speed upon connection?   Does it take a percentage of the available upstream bandwidth? My home ISP bandwidth is 50Mbps down/12 Mbps up.   My corporate ISP (where the ASA I'm connecting to resides) it 50Mbps bi-directional. ... View more

Is there a reason why, even though my ASA5510 is connected to a 1Gbps uplink to my Icorporate ISP, and my corporate ISP's bandwidth is 50Mbps bi-directional, and my client is connected to a 300Mbps wireless uplink and my home ISP connection ot 50Mbps bi-directional, when I launch the AnyConnect Secure Mobility client, my Windows 7 machine claims that the Link Speed of the connection is only 2 Mpbs and even then, if I try and perform a file copy between my client and a server across the VPN tunnel, I never get more than 800kbps transfer speed.

Is there a way for me to be able to 'lock down' a VLAN so that DHCP requests are answered by ONLY the specific DHCP server that I haev assgined to that VLAN's subnet? Would this be accomplished by just putting an ip-helper line in the VLAN configuration, that points to the one DHCP server I want serving addresses to that VLAN segment? ... View more
