What is Branch Office? 23 for large systems to be supported as a Branch Office. A mixture of pre CS 1000 Release 5.0 branches are supported with CS 1000 Release 5.0 branches as long as the main office is running the latest software. The Branch Office feature does not change with the addition of large system based branches. The Branch Office feature is ported to a large system.
Overview Figure 1 Branch Office associated with a CS 1000E main office Main Office and Branch Office Migration All Main Office call servers in CS 1000 Release 5.0 are large system based. A CS 1000 Small System Main Office is no longer supported. Since all CS 1000 Release 5.0 Small System Controller (SSC) based Main Offices have been migrated to Call Processor Pentium Mobile (CP-PM) Call Servers, the Main Office TN (MOTN) Type in a Branch Office will always be set to the large system MOTN Type.
MG 1000B (MGC) compared to the MG 1000B (SSC) 25 mgcsetup command. With a properly designed data network, the multiple ELAN and TLAN interfaces can be used to implement a dual homed configuration for the MG 1000B with MGC. Four of these interfaces are accessed by using RJ45 connectors on the faceplate. Two are reserved for ELAN and two are reserved for TLAN. Two additional Ethernet connections are available if an Option 11C cabinet is used. One is reserved for ELAN and one is reserved for TLAN.
Overview tolerance, the MGC is equipped with a clock reference input/output. The clock reference input and output connections and cable detect are provided through a 15-pin DSUB connector. MGC Serial Ports Each MGC installed in a CS 1000B provides the opportunity for 3 remote SDIs. The maximum number of TTYs does not change. Therefore, after you configure the maximum TTYs , no additional TTYs are supported. The MGC has three serial ports SDI0, SDI1, and SDI2.
MGC Serial Ports 27 MGC serial port default configuration The default settings for the serial ports are • Baud rate = 9600 • Number of data bits = 8 • Number of stop bits = 1 • Parity = none • Flow control = none MGC serial ports configuration change in Overly 17 If you configure the serial ports on an MG 1000B with MGC as SL1 terminals on the Call Server, then the baud rate, number of data bits, number of stop bits, parity, and flow control are configured in LD 17.
Overview SSTD (NTAK03) not supported n/a n/a Card Option Mail not supported n/a n/a Standard Option 11C minimum vintages apply to all packs and daughter boards. Attempts to install unsupported CEMux packs or to configure an unsupported application are blocked. Support of CEMux requires CS 1000 Release 5.0 Softswitch software and a Media Gateway Controller Card (MGC). It is supported by all MG 1000B systems.
MG 1000B platform hardware description 29 The diagrams throughout this document show a CS 1000E main office. All of the systems appearing in the list perform identical main office functions as far as the Branch Office feature is concerned. MG 1000B platform hardware description The MG 1000B system has been enhanced for CS 1000 Release 5.0 Branch Office. The CP-PM Call Server and MGC replace the SSC (Motorola) used in the Release 4.0/4.5 MG 1000B.
Overview Figure 2 CS 1000 Release 5.0 MG 1000B System CS 1000 Release 5.0 continues to support the existing Branch Office configuration that uses the SSC processor, but Nortel no longer offers sales of the SSC based Branch Office. CS 1000 Release 5.0 provides various hardware versions of the Signaling Server, the existing ISP1100 signaling servers, or the new CP-PM Signaling Server. With CS 1000 Release 5.
MG 1000B platform hardware description 31 MG 1000B Core, and the optional chassis expander performs the same functionality as the MG 1000B Expander. Refer to "Converting a Small System to a Branch Office" (page 201) for more information. After conversion to an MG 1000B platform, the Small System cabinet or chassis is referred to as an "MG 1000B Cabinet" or "MG 1000B Chassis", as applicable. The optional chassis expander is referred to as the "MG 1000B Chassis Expander".
Overview Figure 3 MG 1000B Core/MG 1000B Expander MG 1000B Chassis CEMux packs are supported in card positions 1 to 4 of an MG 1000B chassis. They are not supported in the MG 1000B expander chassis, similar to what is the support in the Option 11C SIPE system. Card slots Table 3 "Card slots for MG 1000B Core and MG 1000B Expander" (page 32) shows the card slot assignments for all configurations of the MG 1000B Core and MG 1000B Expander (discussed on "MG 1000B Expander" (page 33)).

Overview • The MG 1000B Expander is connected to the MG 1000B Core with copper wire. Therefore, the back of the MG 1000B Expander does not have an Ethernet port. Figure 3 "MG 1000B Core/MG 1000B Expander" (page 32) shows the MG 1000B Expander. Table 3 "Card slots for MG 1000B Core and MG 1000B Expander" (page 32) gives the card slots for the MG 1000B Expander. Signaling Server The Signaling Server is required for the Branch Office feature.
MG 1000B platform hardware description 35 For more information on the Signaling Server, refer to Signaling Server Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-312). For more information on SIP, H.323, and overlap signaling, refer to IP Peer Networking Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313) . The NCS is required to provide the Main Office Node IP’s actual status. The redirection procedure cannot be performed without the NCS. Interaction with the NCS Branch Office requires the same H.
Overview When configuring the NRS it is necessary to enable the NCS. Ensure the check box "Network Connection Server enabled" is checked in the NRS configuration window of CS 1000 Element Manager. For information on configuring the NRS, refer to IP Peer Networking Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313) .

Overview (500/2500-type) or digital telephone or the PSTN uses one DSP port. Calls between two IP Phones do not require any DSP ports, as there is no need for IP-to-circuit-switched transcoding. Media Cards provide echo cancellation, compression, and decompression of voice streams.For more information about DSP resources residing on the MGC that are configured with DSP Daughterboards, see the CS 1000E Installation and Configuration NTP.
MG 1000B with MGC Data Networking 39 You can connect the MGC to a Layer 2 switch to handle signaling between the Call Server and the MG 1000Bs. If two of the MGC ELAN ports connect to separate Layer 2 switches, the MG 1000B can remain operational if one of the Layer 2 switches fails. MG 1000B shelves must have a data network connectivity to the ELAN port of the Call Server. The design of the data networking configuration is outside the scope of this document.
Overview MGC Network Connections In the following diagrams, two connections are shown to the external data equipment for the dual-homing feature, distributed and nondistributed. Nondistributed means that both Ethernet ports (TLAN or ELAN) of the dual-homing feature connect to a single Layer 2 switch, thus providing a single point of failure if that switch goes out of service.
MG 1000B with MGC Data Networking 41 The following figure illustrates a typical network configuration that supports dual homing of both the ELAN and TLAN. With this configuration, however, a single Layer 2 switch remains a single point of failure. Figure 6 Single server port network connections (dual-homing - non distributed) The following figure illustrates a typical network configuration that supports dual homing of both the ELAN and TLAN.
Overview Figure 7 Single server port network connections (dual-homing - distributed) The following figure illustrates a typical network configuration for a dual CPU Call Server configuration that supports dual homing of both the ELAN and TLAN. Multiple Layer 2 switches ensure there isn’t a single point of failure. Nortel recommends this configuration in a dual CPU Call Server configuration.
MG 1000B with MGC Data Networking 43 Figure 8 Multi server port network configuration (dual-homing - distributed) Cascading can occur for the MGC network connections for up to a maximum of 2 cabinets. You can directly cable the MGCs , without the need for external Layer 2 switches. Nortel recommends this type of configuration for a pure TDM solution. Figure 9 Single server port network connections - cascading Nortel Communication Server 1000 Branch Office Installation and Commissioning NN43001-314 01.
Overview Multi Server (CP-P4) Port Network Configuration (Dual-homing Distributed), shows a configuration with a Call Server platform that does not reside in a MG 1000B cabinet and chassis; therefore no direct connection exists to the MGC.
MG 1000B platform configuration overview 45 MG 1000B platform without an MG 1000B Expander Figure 11 "MG 1000B platform without MG 1000B Expander" (page 45) shows an MG 1000B platform configured without an MG 1000B Expander. This configuration has a single MG 1000B Core. Figure 11 MG 1000B platform without MG 1000B Expander This MG 1000B platform configuration requires at least one Voice Gateway Media Card.
Overview For more information on the Voice Gateway Media Card configuration, refer to IP Line Fundamentals (NN43100-500). For more information on Integrated Conference Bridge, refer to Integrated Conference Bridge Service Implementation Guide (NN43001-558). MG 1000B platform with an MG 1000B Expander Figure 12 "MG 1000B platform with MG 1000B Expander" (page 46) shows an MG 1000B platform configured with an MG 1000B Expander. With the addition of an MG 1000B Expander, you have additional usable slots.
Software requirements 47 Capacity Each CS 1000 main office can support up to 255 branch offices. Each Branch Office supports up to 400 IP Phone users. However, since all IP Phones register with the main office, the governing factor is the maximum number of IP Phones that can be supported at the main office.
Overview Main and Branch Office running different releases The Main Office Call Server and the Branch Office can have different software releases, as long as the Main Office runs at the highest release. With the introduction of CS 1000 Release 5.0 program, Nortel’s policy will be if the main office Call Server is running CS 1000 Release 5.0, the Branch Office can run on CS 1000 Release 5.0, CS 1000 Release 4.5, or CS 1000 Release 4.0. Some functionality found in CS 1000 Release 5.
Software requirements 49 Features in mixed-software configurations Feature operation of IP Phone users in Normal Mode is the feature set on the main office. IP Phone users in Local Mode use the feature set on the Branch Office. Users of analog and digital devices always use the feature set on the Branch Office.
Overview Refer to "Firmware downloads" (page 345) for more information on upgrading firmware for the IP Phone 2001, IP Phone 2002, IP Phone 2004, and IP Phone 2007. Package Combinations The MG 1000B with MGC requires existing packages 402 SOFTSWITCH and 403 IPMG that were introduced in Rls 4.0. Package combinations supported using the Rls 4.5 MG 1000B are supported by the MG 1000B with MGC. For MG 1000B with MGCs, the Branch Office package 390 and IPMG package 403 are required.
Survivability 51 If the main office Call Server fails and call processing services are provided by an alternate Call Server, the MG 1000B IP Phones register with the alternate Call Server and receive call processing services from it. If no alternate Call Server is available, the MG 1000B IP Phones stay registered with the main office TPS for ten minutes. At the end of the ten minutes, the IP Phones reset and register with the call server.
Overview Local Mode at the Branch Office, the MG 1000B telephones remain in Local Mode, displaying aServer Unreachable (1) message and receives all call processing services from the CP PM in the MG 1000B Core. MG 1000B IP Phones in Normal Mode remain registered with the main office when the Primary NRS fails and no Alternate or Failsafe NRS is available. They can call any main office telephone or IP Phones in Normal Mode in other branch offices.
Survivability 53 ACF mode The ACF feature for IP Phones enables an IP Phone to reregister in the ACF mode during a supported system failure. The ACF mode preserves the following: • active media session • LED states of the Mute, Handsfree, and Headset keys • DRAM content All other elements (the feature keys, soft keys and text areas) are retained until the user presses a key or the connection with the Call Server is resumed.

Bandwidth Management With the Network Bandwidth Management feature, you can configure bandwidth zones on a network basis so that codec selection and bandwidth allocation software can identify whether Internet Telephones or gateways are physically co-located (in the same bandwidth zone) even though they are controlled by different Call Servers.
Codec negotiation 57 Nortel recommends configuring the same payload size for all codecs in the same node. SIP example If a G.711 20ms codec and G.729 30ms codec are configured, then codec negotiation uses the minimum payload size of 20 ms. That is, the G.711 20ms codec and the G.729 20ms codec are used. Instead, Nortel recommends that both G.711 and G.729 codecs be configured as 20ms. When a G.729 30ms codec is configured, then the G.729 10ms/20ms/30ms codecs are supported.
Bandwidth Management G.711 A-law and mu-law interworking In case the far end uses a different Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) encoding law for its G.711 codec, systems that are configured as G.711 A-law also include G.711 mu-law on their codec preferences list. Systems configured as G.711 mu-law include G.711 A-law as their last choice. Therefore, encoding law conversion is performed between systems with different laws.
Codec negotiation 59 Codec selection For every Virtual Trunk call, a codec must be selected before the media path can be opened. When a call is set up or modified (that is, media redirection), one of two processes occurs: • The terminating node selects a common codec and sends the selected codec to the originating node. • The codec selection occurs on both nodes. Each node has two codec lists: its own list and the far end’s list.
Bandwidth Management Algorithm details following manner: The H.323 Master/Slave algorithm operates in the • The Master node uses its own codec list as the preferred one and finds a common codec in the far end’s list. In other words, the Master gets the first codec in its list (for example, C1), checks in the far end’s list if it is a common codec; if it is, C1 is the selected codec. Otherwise, it gets the second codec in its list and verifies it against the far end, and so on.
Codec negotiation 61 This is the preferred method of operation. • The calling user agent sends an SDP offer with its codec list in the INVITE message with a "sendrecv" attribute. The called user agent returns more than one codec in the SDP answer. In the case that many codecs are included in the response, the calling user agent picks the first compatible codec from the called user agent’s list, and sends a new SDP offer with a single codec to lock it in.
Bandwidth Management Configuring Bandwidth Management parameters The following sections describe how to configure Bandwidth Management in a CS 1000 network. Nortel recommends that you read the Bandwidth Management section in Converging the Data Network with VoIP (NN43001-260) before using the following configuration information. Zones Bandwidth Management Zones are configured for each endpoint on a Call Server.
Configuring Bandwidth Management parameters 63 3 Choose unique Bandwidth Zone numbers for the Virtual Trunks in the network. 4 Choose the codecs that will be enabled on each Call Server. 5 Identify what the interzone codec strategy will be (BB-Best Bandwidth or BQ-Best Quality) for each zone in the network. 6 Identify what the intrazone codec strategy will be (BB-Best Bandwidth or BQ-Best Quality) for each zone in the network.
Bandwidth Management Figure 13 Configuring a codec Configuring Bandwidth Management The steps to configure Bandwidth Management on the Call Server are as follows: Step Action 1 Define a VPNI number in LD 15.
Configuring Bandwidth Management parameters 65 — Interzone Bandwidth = maximum bandwidth usage allowed between peer Call Servers • Call Server zones that will be used for Virtual Trunks with the following properties: — Intrazone Preferred Strategy = Best Quality (BQ) — Intrazone Bandwidth = default (1000000) — Interzone Preferred Strategy = Best Bandwidth (BQ) — Interzone Bandwidth = default (1000000) 3 Configure the IP Phone, DSP and Virtual Trunk data with the corresponding zone numbers.
Bandwidth Management Figure 14 Zones web page Configuration using LD 117 A new Bandwidth Management zone is configured in LD 117 using the NEW ZONE command. An existing zone can be modified using the CHG ZONE command. LD 117 Configure a new or existing Bandwidth Management zone.
Configuring Bandwidth Management parameters 67 Description Command • interZoneStrategy = BB (Best Bandwidth) or BQ (Best Quality); Nortel recommends this value be set to BB to conserve interzone bandwidth.
Bandwidth Management Figure 15 Maintenance Commands for Zones web page 3 Do one of the following: • To display intrazone statistics: 1. Select Print Interzone Statistics (PRT INTERZONE) from the Action drop-down list. 2. Select a zone from the Zone Number drop-down list, by doing of the following: • • Select ALL to print statistics for all zones. • Select a specific zone number to display statistics for a specific zone. To display interzone statistics: 1.
Configuring Bandwidth Management parameters 69 The Maintenance Commands for Zones web page reopens, displaying the statistics for the specified zone or zones. A blank field indicates that statistic is either not available or not applicable to that zone. Figure 16 "Element Manager - intrazone statistics" (page 69) shows an example of intrazone statistics for a sample Zone 2.
Bandwidth Management Description Command Print intrazone statistics for the identified zones, where: • zone = ALL or 0-255 The output of this command displays the following information: • Zone • Type = PRIVATE/SHARED • Strategy = BB/BQ • ZoneIntent = MO/BMG/VTRK • Bandwidth = number of Kbps • Usage = number of Kbps • Peak = % PRT INTERZONE [] [] [] [] Print interzone statistics for the specific VPNI zone; where: • nearZone = ALL or 0-255 The outp
Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management 71 to another Call Server, the available bandwidth is reduced automatically between those two zones. When the QoS between the two zones improves, then the bandwidth limit is allowed to return to normal. When an IP Phone encounters degradation of the network, it informs the Call Server through various QoS alarms. These QoS alarms (packet loss, jitter, delay, and, for phase 2 IP Phones, R value) get reported to the Call Server.
Bandwidth Management Call scenario A call is requested from a telephone in VPNI 1/Zone 2 on Call Server A to a telephone in VPNI 3/Zone 3 on Call Server B. Both zones have Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management enabled. 1. Call Server A contacts the Network Redirect Server to obtain the address of Call Server B. 2. Call Server A sends a call setup message to Call Server B, identifying the calling telephone’s VPNI and zone. 3.
Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management 73 Figure 17 Call Progress with Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management Zone bandwidth management and Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management Using Element Manager or the Command Line Interface (CLI), previously configured zones (except Zone 0) can have the Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management feature turned on or off. Once turned on, alarm threshold levels and the QoS coefficients can be adjusted from the default values.
Bandwidth Management When a call is made from a zone with Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management enabled, to a third party gateway, which has no zone, then the zone of the Virtual Trunk (VTRK) is used and appears in the zone table. Figure 18 "Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management graph" (page 74) shows an example of the bandwidth changes. Figure 18 Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management graph When a Call Server receives a QoS alarm, the two zones that originated the alarm are determined.
Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management 75 Multiple Appearance Directory Numbers (MADN) can exist on different zones. Calls to an MADN are handled the same as other IP Phone calls, and are subject to the same bandwidth limitations. New SNMP alarms are provided to monitor the system. When the bandwidth limit between zones is reduced below configured levels, an alarm is raised. A Warning alarm and an Unacceptable alarm, each corresponding to a drop below a configured threshold, are used.
Bandwidth Management Figure 20 Effect of a higher CQoS Coefficient Other configurable coefficients used in the calculation are the QoS Coefficient (CQoS), QoS Response Time Increase (ZQRT), and QoS Response Time Interval (ZQRTI). CQoS, Cr, Cd, Cpl, and Cj control the rate of bandwidth decrease, while ZQRT and ZQRTI control the rate of bandwidth increase.
Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management 77 Configuration rules The configuration rules for Adaptive Network Bandwidth Management are as follows: • Each main office Call Server in a network must have a unique non-zero VPNI. • All branch offices(MG1000B or SRG) associated with a particular main office must have the same VPNI as the main office Call Server. • All IP Phones (other than specific IP SoftPhone 2050s) and DSP endpoints on a Call Server must be configured for the same zone.
Bandwidth Management 4. Tandem the inbound Branch Office calls by creating a dialing plan which routes all calls destined for the Branch Office through the main office. Advanced Configuration Notes 1. The default values for Cpl, Cj, Cd, Cr and CQos can be increased to increase the response time for Sliding Maximum changes. However, increasing them can cause the Sliding Maximum to temporarily decrease to a lower value then necessary, resulting in the needless blocking of interzone calls. 2.

Bandwidth Management Figure 24 Sample output for PRT INTERZONE command Tandem Bandwidth Management overview In order for the main office to correctly keep track of all the bandwidth being used to and from a Branch Office the call must be tandemed through the main office. When calls are tandemed through the main office only the signaling is tandemed, the actual voice bandwidth travels directly between the source and destination.
Dialing Plan Overview 91 Bandwidth utilization for the Branch Office is tracked at the main office and can be displayed in LD 117 using the PRT INTERZONE command. To provide the correct bandwidth utilization to the main office Call Server, when a Branch Office is calling another node in the network, the calls must be tandemed through the main office Call Server in both the inbound and outbound direction.

Bandwidth Management Figure 27 "Scenario 1: UDP throughout the network" (page 94) shows two or more main offices with their branch offices, within a larger network. Callers within each main office/Branch Office "region" use UDP to place calls between systems. Callers also use UDP to place calls across the IP network to the other main office(s) and its (their) branch offices. In a typical network, a full region uses a single Home Location Code (HLOC).

Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management Figure 48 "Example of Alternative Call Routing for NBWM in operation" (page 128) shows a diagram of a typical network where Alternative Call Routing for NBWM can be used. It illustrates the sequence of events that are explained in the information following the diagram. Event number 1 pertains to the originally dialed call that experiences low bandwidth or unacceptable QoS conditions. Event number 2 pertains to the alternately routed call.
Description • 129 Branch Office calls to or from another Branch Office controlled by the same main office The term "Branch Office" refers to Media Gateway 1000B (MG1000B) and Survivable Remote Gateway (SRG) systems in this document. This feature enables alternate routing to occur for Branch Office users registered to the main office, when they place inter-zone, station-to-station calls to main office stations or Branch Office stations.
Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management The ALTPrefix applies to the zone in which the call originates. There is one ALTPrefix for each zone that requires alternate routing. All Call Servers must be able to translate the ALTPrefixes for all zones that require Alternative Call Routing for NBWM.
Description 131 5. The call is routed over the PSTN/MCDN to the telephone at the Branch Office. With the ALTPrefix digits inserted, the resulting number must be one that CDP or VNR software can process as a steering code. For SRGs, the main office manipulates the digits in the call into a format appropriate for routing from the SRG on PSTN/MCDN trunks. For more information on SRG, refer to Main Office Configuration for Survivable Remote Gateway 50 Configuration Guide (NN43001-307).
Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management Calls preceded by the ALTPrefix can be handled by the Vacant Number Routing (VNR) feature. Use Flexible Numbering Plan (FNP) software for this type of routing. Examples of Alternative Call Routing for NBWM in operation The main office systems shown in the diagrams in this chapter are CS 1000E systems. However, this feature is supported on any CS 1000 system.
Description Configuration required 133 Configure the following: At the main office: • Use one of the dialing plan software packages to process the call, such as CDP or NARS. • Provision an ALTPrefix for the BO2 zone. • Provision the ALTPrefix as a Steering Code at the main office. Build a Route List Index (RLI) so these calls go to the virtual trunk or configure the Vacant Number Routing feature to do the same. At the Branch Office: • Provision the ALTPrefix as a steering code.
Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management Figure 50 Illustration showing digits dialed and outpulsed with Alternative Call Routing for NBWM 1. IP Phone User B in the BO2 zone dials IP Phone A in the main office zone (DN 5262) (action labeled 1 in Figure 49 "Example of an alternately routed call between a Branch Office telephone in Normal Mode and a main of" (page 132)). 2. The main office Call Server determines there is insufficient bandwidth between the two zones. 3.
Description 135 4. The call is routed to the virtual trunk by CDP or VNR. The virtual trunk sends a request to the NRS for address resolution. The digit string sent to the NRS contains the ALTPrefix. The NRS returns the IP address of the Branch Office endpoint to the virtual trunk. 5. The virtual trunk places the call to the Branch Office. 6. The Branch Office receives the call and recognizes the first part of the number as a Steering Code. The call is steered to an RLI.

IP Phones are also shown associated with each system. Telephone A belongs to the main office. Telephone B is a telephone at the Branch Office registered to the main office. There are two bandwidth zones indicated by the dashed line (main office zone [MO zone] and Branch Office zone [BO2 zone]). Telephone A and the Media Gateway belong to the MO zone.
Description • 137 Set up a DMI to outpulse the correct digits to the Branch Office telephone. At the Branch Office: • No provisioning required. At the NRS: • No provisioning required. Sequence of events in the call The information that follows refers to Figure 51 "Example of an alternately routed call between a main office telephone and a Branch Office telephone" (page 136) and Figure 52 "Illustration showing digits dialed and outpulsed with Alternative Call Routing for NBWM" (page 137).
Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management Example: ALTPrefix assigned is 777. The dialed number becomes 777 3121. 4. The call is routed by CDP or VNR to the outgoing route using an RLI. Example: 7773 is a steering code, translated to go to an RLI where there is one entry, a PSTN trunk route. 5.
Description 139 Figure 53 Example of an alternately routed call between a Branch Office telephone and another Branch Office telephone Telephone B in the BO2 zone calls Telephone F in the BO1 zone (the user dials 6020). In this example, the call alternately routes to the PSTN. (The PSTN telephone number of Telephone F is 506-348-6020.) Configuration required Configure the following: At the main office: • Use one of the dialing plan software packages to process the call, such as CDP or NARS.
Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management At the NRS: • Create a CDP entry for the ALTPrefix in the Branch Office gateway. Sequence of events in the call The information that follows refers to Figure 53 "Example of an alternately routed call between a Branch Office telephone and another Branch Office te" (page 139) and Figure 54 "Illustration showing digits dialed and outpulsed with Alternative Call Routing for NBWM" (page 141).
Description 141 Figure 54 Illustration showing digits dialed and outpulsed with Alternative Call Routing for NBWM 1. The user of IP Phone B in the BO2 zone dials IP Phone F in the BO1 zone (DN 6020) (action labeled 1 in Figure 53 "Example of an alternately routed call between a Branch Office telephone and another Branch Office te" (page 139)).

Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management 2. The main office Call Server determines there is insufficient bandwidth between the BO2 and BO1 zones. 3. The Call Server inserts the ALTPrefix configured for the BO2 zone prior to IP Phone F’s telephone number, dialed by the user. Example: ALTPrefix assigned is 222.The dialed number becomes 222 6020. 4. The call is routed to the virtual trunk by CDP or VNR. The virtual trunk sends a request to the NRS for address resolution.
Operating parameters 143 The configuration and provisioning for the All Calls mode is exactly the same as the regular Alternative Call Routing for NBWM feature except that the Alternate Routing for All Calls option is selected in LD 117 or Element Manager. Operating parameters This feature applies to all CS 1000 systems. This feature applies to station-to-station, interzone calls. The call can be between IP Phones or a TDM telephone at the main office and an IP Phone at the Branch Office.
Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management This feature does not apply to virtual trunk calls. It only applies to station-to-station calls, and routes them over the PSTN or MCDN network. Virtual Trunk calls already have this feature and can be alternately routed using traditional methods (such as NARS), which are outside the scope of this feature. Alternative Call Routing for NBWM does not apply to users who are registered in local mode to the Branch Office.
Feature implementation using Command Line Interface 145 Network Routing Service (NRS) Both the main office and Branch Office must be registered on the Nortel NRS for tandem routing to work for main office to Branch Office tandeming. Trunk Route Optimization (TRO) Disable Trunk Route Optimization between the Branch Office (or SRG) and the main office to allow the tandeming required for the feature to work.

How the Branch Office feature works "MG 1000B Core interoperability" (page 176) "Network Wide Redundancy Phase II and Network Music" (page 176) Introduction The Branch Office connects to the main office using Virtual Trunks over the LAN or WAN. Virtual Trunks are software components that provide the trunking features of the Meridian Customer-Defined Networking (MCDN) feature set.
Normal Mode and Local Mode operation 161 An IP Phone at the Branch Office may be in Local Mode for two different reasons: • IP Phone may have just booted up • IP Phone cannot communicate to the main office because of a WAN failure or a failure of the main office components. In the event of a WAN failure, the Branch Office IP Phones lose communication with the main office. This causes the Branch Office IP Phones to reset and reregister with the Branch Office. The IP Phones then operate in Local Mode.
How the Branch Office feature works Before the Branch Office IP Phone attempts to register with the main office, the MG 1000B first queries the Primary NRS (NCS) fro the main office for the Virtual Trunk node IP address to redirect the IP Phone. If the Primary NRS (NCS) is down or unreachable, the MG 1000B queries the Alternate NRS, if one is specified. If it receives a positive response, the MG 1000B is redirected to the specified main office.
Normal Mode and Local Mode operation 163 After Virtual Office login, the Branch Office does not start the redirection procedure to the Main Office for a logged in set immediately. The Main Office can accept only an IP Phone 2004 compatible phone following a Branch Office redirection. If the redirected phone is not 2004 compatible (such as 2007 or 1140), an Invalid Set Type message is displayed.
How the Branch Office feature works The licensing feature applies only if more than four IP Phones are in Local Mode at the same time. If four or fewer phones are in Local Mode simultaneously, the licensing feature is not activated. Testing the telephone in Local Mode From Normal Mode, a Branch Office user can use Test Local Mode to test telephone functionality in Local Mode. The user can perform the test at any time and does not require a password. This test is invoked from the Internet Telephone.
Normal Mode and Local Mode operation 165 IP Phone calls When an IP Phone calls another IP Phone, each telephone receives the address of the other to exchange media directly between the telephones. Also note that when in Normal Mode, an MG 1000B IP Phone calling a main office IP Phone does not require any trunking to setup the call. However, LAN/WAN bandwidth is used to provide a media path for the call.
How the Branch Office feature works Vacant Number Routing (VNR) is mandatory in a Branch Office. It enables a Branch Office to route calls through the NRS, or other alternate routes if configured, with minimal configuration. Instead of changing the numbering trees and steering codes at each location, all the routing information can be kept at one central location. At the Branch Office, VNR is normally routed first to the Virtual Trunk.
Normal Mode and Local Mode operation 167 ATTENTION IMPORTANT! If you are using one Access Code for both local and long-distance calls, and that Access Code is associated with a Branch Office zone, all calls (local and long-distance) are routed through that Branch Office. For more information, see "Dialing plan configuration" (page 291).
How the Branch Office feature works The conferencing feature for MG 1000B systems supports up to 30 parties with the addition of the MGC as the gateway controller for the MG 1000B. In a CS 1000E system, the MGC acts as the controllers for the MG 1000Bs: • If you configure a conference loop in LD 17 on any MGC-based MG 1000Bs, the maximum number of parties for any conference on the system is six. This is the CS 1000 Release 5.0 limit due to the Call Server hardware.
Configuring non-zero S2 IP Addresses 169 When the telephone detects that it has lost communication with the main office, it reboots and registers to the MG 1000B TPS. This means that, depending on the network configuration (or the point of failure in the network), not all MG 1000B IP Phones go into Local Mode at the same time. Calls are not maintained during switchover from Normal Mode to Local Mode.
How the Branch Office feature works Figure 64 Configuration using S2 IP Address Points to remember When an IP set registers to the main office using S2, remember the following important points: • An IP Phone registered to the main office using S2 appears in the main office TPS as a "regular online" user. Normally, an MG 1000B IP Phone registered to the main office Call Server appears as a "branch online" user. Commands can be executed on the main office Signaling Server to verify this operation.
Configuring non-zero S2 IP Addresses 171 System or a CS 1000E, a TN mismatch occurs and redirection from Branch Office to main office is not successful. • If the MG 1000B TPS is unavailable, IP Phones at the main office or Branch Office have no access to TDM resources (digital and analog telephones or PSTN trunks) at the Branch Office, whether the IP Phones are registered using S1 or S2.
How the Branch Office feature works 3 Program the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway addresses for the MG 1000B IP Phone. 4 Program the S1 IP Address, action, and retry parameters. The S1 IP Address is the MG 1000B Node IP Address. 5 Program the S2 IP Address, action, and retry parameters. The S2 IP Address is the main office Node IP Address. 6 Program the remaining parameters. The IP Phone reboots again.
Emergency services 173 The key difference between the main office user and the Branch User is the route selected for the emergency call. An emergency call must be handed off to the PSTN over a trunk at the central office that is geographically closest to the caller — this means that there is normally an emergency trunk in the main office, and one in each of the branch offices.
How the Branch Office feature works With all sites using the same ESDN, a conflict occurs in the NRS. The conflict is resolved by using a unique prefix for each site, which the main office adds as it routes the call. The suggested prefix is the ESN home location code of the MG 1000B CP PM, or alternately, the Number Plan Area (NPA) code of the MG 1000B CP PM if there is not more than one Call Server in the NPA.
Abbreviated Dialing 175 This feature is implemented with a pre-translation group assigned to every telephone. All IP Phones in the same bandwidth management zone use the same pre-translation group. TDM telephones, which share the same dialing plan with IP Phones in a bandwidth management zone, also use the same pre-translation group. The pre-translation group assignment is more easily and quickly done using the TM 3.01 global change functionality.
How the Branch Office feature works • Calling Line Identification (CLID) on outgoing PSTN calls from the main office or the Branch Office are modified from four to six digits. Additional digits can be added using the capabilities of CLID. • The calling party display always shows the full-length DN of the originating party. • The display on the calling telephone shows the called DN as dialed. After the call is established or modified, the display changes in accordance with existing features.
Network Wide Redundancy Phase II and Network Music 177 or the CS 1000/2100 itself is down. When the link to the remote 2100/CS 1000 or to the remote CS 1000/2100 itself is restored, the IP telephones are automatically redirected back to the remote CS 1000/2100 to receive telephony services. Support for this feature is available in the MG 1000B to provide survivability to IP telephones normally registered with a CS 2100/CS 1000.

Planning and management • jitter CAUTION Service Interruption If the network is planned so IP Phones use a different route to the main office than the MG 1000B TPS, a fault condition can occur. When the MG 1000B TPS can "ping" the main office but the IP Phone cannot "ping" the main office due to a network outage, an IP Phone registration can force the telephone into a cycle of registering locally, being redirected to the main office, rebooting and then registering locally again.
Branch Office dialing plan 181 The maximum bandwidth required for these activities is approximately 13 Kbps. This is insignificant when compared to the bandwidth requirement for the expected voice traffic. Therefore, when determining the LAN/WAN bandwidth requirement for a Branch Office, expected voice traffic should be the major factor.
Planning and management For more information about CDP, refer to Dialing Plans Reference (NN43001-283). For details on other Numbering Plan options, refer to Communication Server 1000S: Overview (NN43031-110). For more information on ESN, refer to "ESN Access Codes" (page 182). Emergency Services To understand Emergency Service Access (ESA), see "Emergency services" (page 172). The main office Call Server supports only one Emergency Service DN (ESDN).
Branch Office dialing plan 183 Configuration example for PSTN resources at the Branch Office IP Phones registered to the main office Call Server can be grouped into one of two categories: • those configured with a main office dialing plan, similar to any other non-IP Phone at the main office • those configured with a Branch Office dialing plan because the telephone is physically located in a Branch Office Customer data must first be configured to recognize numbers that are local to each location (a st
Planning and management • All other long-distance numbers have other routing as appropriate (1-NPA-NXX-XXXX). At the Branch Office, the following items must be configured: • Long-distance numbers in the same area code, such as 1-506-234-1234 or 1-506-675-1234. • Long-distance numbers at the main office are configured to go over the Virtual Trunk and use PSTN trunks at the main office, such as 1-613-967-1111 or 1-613-555-1212.
Management 185 Description Command Tells the system the NARS Access Codes for local dialing and the NARS Access Code to convert the call into a long-distance call, to route the call to the Branch Office. In this case we are converting a call, such as "9 555-1212" into the call "6 1 506 555-1212", a conversion from AC2 to AC1. CHG ZDP 10 1 506 Specifies the additional digits needed to convert a local call to a long-distance call.

TM 3.01 allows customers to configure IP Phone data for use in survivable mode.
Management 187 office, or any other Branch Office in the network. However, IP Phone calls to devices or local trunks at the Branch Office are counted as incoming Virtual Trunk calls to the analog or digital devices or local trunks. When an IP Phone is in Local Mode, any calls to or from the IP Phone are included in the traffic measurement at the Branch Office. Call Detail Recording (CDR) The format of CDR output for the Branch Office feature is no different from the existing CDR format.
Planning and management The identifying digits in the main office Call Server’s CDR log are the manipulated string as specified by the Branch Office zone. For example, the Branch Office user dialed "9, 555-1212", but the main office Call Server changes it to "6, 1-613-555-1212". CDR records the dial string as "1-613-555-1212".
Management 189 ATTENTION IMPORTANT! The notification level for a Branch Office zone must be configured exactly the same in the main office and the Branch Office. System security CS 1000E and CS 1000M (Large System) system security is explained in detail in System Management Reference (NN43001-600). This is required reading for any Branch Office administrator.

Dialing plan configuration Contents This section contains information on the following topics: "Overview" (page 291) "Introduction" (page 292) "Dialing plans" (page 292) "Routing" (page 294) "SIP/H.
Dialing plan configuration This section primarily describes the configuration of a dialing plan for off-net calls from MG 1000B IP Phones in Normal Mode. However, the procedures in this chapter are also applicable when configuring on-net UDP dialing for these telephones, if a single Access Code is used for both UDP and some or all off-net calls. Introduction The Branch Office feature is versatile enough to provide solutions for a wide variety of applications which require different dialing plans.
Introduction 293 select trunks at the main office, Branch Office, or other branch offices as required. Therefore, the user can route calls to gateways that minimize long-distance costs, minimize bandwidth usage, or meet other criteria.
Dialing plan configuration The NRS replies with the address information for E.164 numbers. It also provides a list of alternative SIP or H.323 endpoints, sorted by cost. If a terminating endpoint resource is busy when a call attempt is made, the originating endpoint tries the next alternative. If no alternative is available over the IP network, the originating endpoint steps to the next entry on its route list, which could be a TIE or PSTN alternate route.
Zone-based digit manipulation 295 Bandwidth management zones An IP Peer network is divided into different bandwidth management zones. Each IP Phone, Virtual Trunk, or Voice Gateway DSP channel is assigned to a bandwidth management zone.
Dialing plan configuration By performing this zone-based digit manipulation, calls from main office users and Branch Users undergo different routing.
Configuring the dialing plan for PSTN access to Branch Users in Normal Mode 297 If ISPN is YES, the CLID is formed based on the call-type before digit manipulation. INST digits are inserted, and the CLID is considered an IP Special Number. The call-type before digit manipulation is determined as follows: • If the call-type before digit manipulation is SPN (Special Number), it is converted to a value corresponding to the CLTP parameter in the Special Number Translations data block, as shown in Table 21.
Dialing plan configuration • At the main office, configure the Branch Office zone properties in LD 117, excluding the ZACB and ZDP properties. Refer to IP Peer Networking Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313) for details. • At the main office, configure the routing for PSTN access. • At the Branch Office, configure the routing to enable calls made from TDM or IP Phones in Local Mode to access the PSTN. • At the Branch Office, configure Vacant Number Routing (VNR).
Configuring the dialing plan for PSTN access to Branch Users in Normal Mode 299 A sample configuration is given in Appendix "Off-net dialing plan configuration example" (page 405). Procedure 33 Configuring the main office Step Action 1 Configure the ZACB property for the Branch Office zone. LD 117 Define the zone Access Code handling for the Branch Office zone.
Dialing plan configuration dials "2 87654321", zone-based digit manipulation does not occur and the digit string remains unchanged. • CHG ZACB AC2 AC2 In this configuration, only calls dialed with AC2 undergo zone-based digit manipulation. All Branch User calls dialed with AC2 can then be routed to the MG 1000B PSTN. For example, assume that AC1 = 1, AC2 = 2, and ZDP = 101. If a Branch User dials "1 87654321", zone-based digit manipulation does not occur and the digit string remains unchanged.
Configuring the dialing plan for PSTN access to Branch Users in Normal Mode 301 digit manipulation occurs before any digit processing in the main office Call Server or NRS. If DialingCode1, DialingCode2, or DialingCode3 are already present in the dialed digits, then they will not be re-inserted. Nortel recommends that the ZDP attribute for each Branch Office zone be set to a unique non-dialable number within the dialing plan (for example "1019" or "999").

For each additional dialed digit included in the SPN, the maximum number of SPNs that must be provisioned for each Branch Office is increased by a factor of ten.
Dialing plan configuration Procedure 34 Configuring the NRS database Step Action After configuring main office routing to the NRS, the NRS database must be provisioned to identify the desired endpoint for the calls. This procedure configures the NRS database with the inserted digits specified by the zone-based digit manipulation configuration. Instead of configuring the NRS database, you can configure a route in the main office to directly route the call (see Step 4).

Dialing plan configuration If some calls are to be routed differently from others, it is possible to provision the multiple Numbering Plan Entries in the NRS to achieve this. For example, if ZDP = 101, it is possible to provision multiple Numbering Plan Entries (101, 1011, and so on) to route calls based on the ZDP value or the ZDP value plus some of the dialed digits.

Emergency Services configuration Contents This section contains information on the following topics: "Overview" (page 315) "Emergency Services Access (ESA)" (page 316) "Routing ESA calls" (page 316) "Emergency call routing" (page 316) "PSTN routing: Enhanced 911 versus Basic 911" (page 316) "Configuring ESA for the Branch Office" (page 317) "Reregistering to minimally configured branch" (page 318) "Element Manager ESA configuration" (page 326) "Emergency Service using Special Numbers (SPN)" (page 327)
Emergency Services configuration Either of these methods have a Branch Office implementation which triggers the main office Call Server to forward emergency services calls to the MG 1000B PSTN. Calls are redirected over a Virtual Trunk using the services of the NRS. Emergency Services Access (ESA) Routing ESA calls ATTENTION IMPORTANT! Do not route ESA calls to a node that has no direct ESA trunks.
Emergency Services Access (ESA) 317 The Selective Router looks up the caller’s ANI in its Selective Routing Data Base (which is synchronized with the ALI database) to determine the correct PSAP and then routes the emergency call appropriately. Hence, the call can be routed to any CO in the correct E911 Tandem area. The Selective Router automatically routes the call to the appropriate PSAP based on the ANI. In areas that support Basic 911, the route to the PSAP is determined by the PSTN access point.
Emergency Services configuration 13 Configure the Branch Office zone on the Branch Office. 14 Configure the ESN SPN on the Branch Office. 15 Configure the NRS for the ESA Special Number used. 16 Test ESDN using an MG 1000B IP Phone. 17 Test ESDN using an analog (500/2500-type) or digital telephone located at the Branch Office. —End— Reregistering to minimally configured branch A Branch User in Local Mode but not physically at the branch may get incorrect emergency service handling.
Emergency Services Access (ESA) 319 The basic ESA feature only provides for a single ESA route per system. Since all IP Phones are associated with the same main office, all ESA calls therefore go to the same Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) regardless from which Branch Office they originated. This is not satisfactory if the branch offices are widely dispersed. In general, ESA calls should leave the network through a trunk at the Branch Office where the originating telephone is located.
Emergency Services configuration ESA uses a route number rather than ESN route list index. However, ESN is required at the Branch Office. 4 Configure Emergency Services Access (ESA) in LD 24. Configure an ACD number as an Emergency Services Directory Number. LD 24 Configure Emergency Services Access. Prompt Response Description REQ NEW CHG Add new data, or change existing data.
Emergency Services Access (ESA) 321 Description Command • ESA Route # = Virtual Trunk route to MG 1000B Core. • AC = Access Code to add to dialed digits. If no AC is required, AC0 is to be entered in place of AC1 or AC2. • ESA Prefix = Digit string added to start of ESDN. This is a unique prefix in the NRS. Nortel recommends that users use "0" + ESN location code of the Branch Office node. An example for location code 725 would be: 0725.

Emergency Services Access (ESA) 325 —End— Procedure 39 Configuring the Branch Office zone Step Action 1 Configure the Branch Office zone on the Branch Office. In the Branch Office, only the zone number and bandwidth/codec selection is configured. Use the same zone number between the Branch Office and main office. The main office configuration (Procedure 37 "Configuring the main office" (page 319), step 5) provides the Branch Office zone characteristics (local time, local dialing, and ESA).
Emergency Services configuration Procedure 40 Testing ESDN using an MG 1000B Telephone Step Action 1 For IP Phones: a. Dial the ESDN on an MG 1000B IP Phone in Local Mode. Use Procedure 31 "Using the Test Local Mode feature" (page 286) to enter Local Mode. The calls must go out on the emergency trunks in the Branch Office. b. Dial the ESDN on an MG 1000B IP Phone in Normal Mode. The calls must tandem over the Virtual Trunk to the Branch Office and go out on the emergency trunks in the Branch Office.
Emergency Service using Special Numbers (SPN) 327 Figure 116 Zone Emergency Service Information Emergency Service using Special Numbers (SPN) Determining the dialing plan for emergency access calls is critical. In many jurisdictions, the emergency number is a fixed number (for example, "112" or "999"). The call processor (main office Call Server or MG 1000B CP PM) cannot have a DN that conflicts with these digits.
Emergency Services configuration CLID verification (CLIDVER) Use the CLIDVER prompt in LD 20 to verify that the ESA or non-ESA (SPN) emergency number is properly composed and configured. Refer to "Verify CLID" (page 355) for more information. Networked M911 The Networked M911 feature introduces a new trunk subtype 911P exclusively for 911 calls redirected over an MCDN Network. A new prompt, 911P, is introduced in the Route Data Block for TIE trunks only.

Basic Emergency Services When VO Logged Out New functionality is introduced: to provide the ability for the logged out phone to make ESA calls and receive callbacks, temporarily register with the Call Server. The registration begins as the user tries to make a call from the logged out phone by going off hook or pressing the primary key, or using the handsfree or headset.
Contents 331 • CPND block: uses the English string VOLO and is automatically configured against the primary key of all the emergency TNs. • DES: All the emergency TNs have the ESTN designator. • DN: The emergency DN configured by administrator. The primary DN, that is configured by the administrator, is sent to the OSN phone/terminal, so that callback to this phone is possible. CLID Composition In Release 4.5 and earlier, the CLID configuration is static.
Basic Emergency Services When VO Logged Out • If the timer expires but the phone is involved in a call, the time out event is ignored. When this call is finished, the 20 minute timer reloads. Provisioning, Administration and Maintenance The Basic Emergency Services When VO Logged Out feature is provisioned like follows: Step Action 1 First, specify the number of emergency TNs in the pool and specify the range of the emergency pool in LD 24. 2 Then go to LD 11 and configure emergency TNs.
Contents 333 The use case Scenario: Keep Logged Out State provides the requirement to prevent the logged out phone registered with the Call Server for ESA from reregistering. When this scenario occurs, the VOLO phone will sustain it’s Awaiting Callback state until the ESAVOLO timer expires, and returns to it’s original Logged Out state, to give you the chance to go back to normal registration by using the soft key provided.
Basic Emergency Services When VO Logged Out The call to PSAP occurs immediately after the set registers, requiring the correct location information; This is not desired. Special handling may be required, possibly by directly calling background LIS for the VOLO TN. Active Call Fail Over Interactions with Active Call Fail over can be considered under the following possible scenarios: • ELAN failure happens for less than 10 minutes: — The ESA VOLO phone is on a call.

Appendix D Off-net dialing plan configuration example Main office At the main office Call Server: 1. The call is recognized as originating from a Branch User in Zone 1. 2. Based on the ZACB property, the Call Server recognizes that the call has been dialed with AC1, and that zone-based digit manipulation must be performed. 3. The ZDP digits are inserted after the Access Code, changing the digit string to "1 101 87654321". 4. The digits are translated by the ESN feature. a.
List of terms CDP Coordinated Dialing Plan. Under the recommended Coordinated Dialing Plan, the Branch User ID can be an extension (for example, 4567). For more information about CDP, consult Dialing Plans Reference (NN43001-283). datadump A datadump, or Equipment Datadump (EDD), is performed on the Call Server to save the active database to backup and to copy the database to static memory on the pertinent Small System Controller.
List of terms same conference even though they are using different videoconferencing applications. Although most videoconferencing vendors have announced that their products conform to H.323, it is too early to say whether such adherence actually results in interoperability. IP Abbreviation of Internet Protocol, pronounced as two separate letters. IP specifies the format of packets, also called datagrams, and the addressing scheme.
List of terms 413 IP addresses to unique IP addresses before sending out packets. NAT is practical when only a few users in a domain need to communicate outside of the domain at the same time. NCS Short for Network Connection Server. It provides a TPS interface to the NRS, allowing the TPS to query the NRS using the UNIStim protocol. It is a remote system node IP based on BUID (Branch Office), virtual office user (network wide virtual office login), and NUID (Geographic Redundancy).
List of terms routing The process of selecting the correct path for packets transmitted between IP networks by using software-based algorithms. Each packet is processed by the algorithm to determine its destination. SIP Short for Session Initiation Protocol. SIP is a protocol standard used for establishing, modifying, and terminating conference and telephony sessions in IP networks. A session can be a simple two-way telephone call or it can be a collaborative multi-media conference session.
List of terms 415 of voice streams. The voice gateway software can run on an 8- or 32-port Media Card or the 24-port ITG-P card. Within the MG 1000B Core, both of these cards register the voice channels to the MG 1000B Small System Controller when they are configured. WAN Wide Area Network. A computer network that spans a relatively large geographical area. Typically, a WAN consists of two or more local-area networks (LANs).
