Appendix A: Preparing Cisco SRST Support for SIP
DTMF Relay for SIP Applications and Voice Mail
156
Cisco IOS Survivable Remote Site Telephony Version 3.4 System Administrator Guide
The SIP DTMF relay method is needed in the following situations:
• When SIP is used to connect a Cisco SRST system to a remote SIP-based IVR or voice-mail
application, such as Cisco Unity.
• When SIP is used to connect a Cisco SRST system to a remote SIP-PSTN voice gateway that goes
through the PSTN to a voice-mail or IVR application.
Note The need to use out-of-band DTMF relay conversion is limited to SCCP phones. SIP phones natively
support in-band DTMF relay as specified in RFC 2833.
To enable SIP DTMF relay using RFC 2833, the commands in this section must be used on both
originating and terminating gateways.
