1. Not sure if this is useful. You might like to have a look at the following document.

Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch - Cause Code Modification

2. For the 2nd question, it would be fine, if you would upgrade the IOS to support the required codec.

hi,

for SS7 messages on PGW:

cisco provides the 'snooper' trace tool and 'Packet Telephony Center - Monitoring and Troubleshooting' (PTC-MT)

have a look at this for PTC-MT

For snooper trace tool request at TAC.

I didn't check out PTC-MT functionality by myself yet, but it looks quite interesting. Snooper is a very easy to use sniffer simmilar to tcpdump (in earlier versions it worked on top of tcpdump it think...).
