Configuring Live Record
Configuration
To configure the live-record feature, you must:
  • Configure ad-hoc conferencing for Live Record.
This configuration includes:
  –
Enabling dspfarm services on the voice-card that has voice DSPs for conferencing on the Cisco 
IOS voice gateway. 
  –
Enabling SCCP on Cisco Unified CME and creating a SCCP CCM Group to register to 
Cisco
 Unified CME.
  –
Binding the SCCP protocol to an interface on the voice card or ethernet interface of the router.
  –
Setting up the Conferencing DSP Farm and enable all the codecs (taking into consideration local 
calls, a G711 codec leg to Cisco Unity Express and calls across SIP Trunk (if any) that will be 
using the Live Record feature.
  –
Associating the Cisco Unified CME to the DSP Profile and provide a device name for the 
conferencing resource to register with Cisco Unified CME. 
  –
Enabling hardware conferencing on Cisco Unified CME (telephony-service) and specifying the 
device-name of the conferencing resource that will register with Cisco
 Unified CME. 
  –
Defining an Ad-Hoc DN to support Ad-Hoc Conferencing 
Note Beginning with Cisco Unified CME 4.3, you can add an octo-line DN which has 8 channels on 
the DN. Each party will need one channel on the DN, so octo-line DN will support 8 
conferencing parties. On Cisco Unified CME 4.1 and 4.2, the ephone-dn cannot be configured 
for octo-line so use dual-line and create four such dual-line DNs to support 8 party conference. 
For more information on how to configure the Live Record feature on Cisco Unified CME, see the 
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express System Administrator Guide.
  • Configure Live Record and Voicemail pilots numbers on Cisco Unified CME.
  • Setup a Live Record DN and Call Forward it to the voice mail pilot number. 
  • Configure a dial-peer pointing the VM pilot to Cisco Unity Express.
  • On Cisco Unified CME 4.3, optionally create a Live Record (LiveRcd) softkey for the ephones that 
will use the LiveRcd feature and assign the template to the ephones. 
The LiveRcd softkey is used to start and stop a live recording. 
  • Configure a live-record pilot number on Cisco Unity Express.
Use the voicemail live-record pilot-number digits command and supply the live-record pilot 
number as the digits argument.
  • Optionally configure the beep duration and interval for live record on Cisco Unity Express.
You can configure the beep duration and interval on Cisco Unity Express as needed to satisfy any 
applicable laws concerning notification that a call is being recorded. By default, the beep duration 
is 250
 milliseconds and the beep interval is 15 seconds.
