CS context configuration task list
The information that is needed for the CS entity configuration is distributed among several configuration
tasks, depending on its logical content.
For example, all related information that pertains to call routing is described in configuration task
call routing" on page 288. These configuration steps themselves can be described in one or more other chap-
ters. Thus, to configure call routing you have to refer to chapter 24,
and chapter 25, "Session router configuration"
This chapter shows you the correlation between the several CS configuration components. We recommend that
you perform the CS context configuration in the order that is described below. Many of the parameters have default
values which do not need to be changed. This means, that you generally do not need perform all of the described
configuration tasks. In such cases it is stated in the text that you can skip the respective configuration task.
• Plan the CS configuration
• Configure general CS settings (see
• Configure call routing (see
• Configure dial tones (advanced) (see
• Configure Voice over IP settings (advanced) (see
• Configure ISDN ports (see
• Configure an ISoIP VoIP connection (see
• Configure an H.323 VoIP connection (see
• Activate CS context configuration (see
Plan the CS configuration
There are many possible policies and factors that may influence the CS context configuration. It depends on
what your application is and how your network is configured. Several factors to consider for planning your CS
configuration are listed below:
• Application/network scenario
• Peripheral devices, such as PBX or remote VoIP gateway.
• VoIP protocol (ISoIP or H.323); gatekeeper settings in the case of H.323
• Number and type of interface cards installed in your SmartNode(s)
• Call routing
For an example see figure 52
concentrates on the SmartNode in the remote office. There is an ISDN phone, a personal computer, a connec-
tion to the Public ISDN network and a connection to the IP backbone. The VoIP protocol used is ISoIP with
a codec G.711. A call is routed to the IP backbone as well as to the Public ISDN network depending on its pre-
fix and number length. This implies the following CS configuration:
Because we are connected to the Public Switched Telephone Network, we get the clock-source from the corre-
sponding ISDN port and simultaneously synchronize the system time of the SmartNode to the ISDN time.
