* Understanding Analog Connectivity.

- What is analog connectivity?
- Electric waveforms: more than you ever knew.
- Understanding analog signaling.

* Understanding Digital Connectivity.

- Problem with analog connections.
- Converting Analog to Digital Signal.

* Solving the wiring problem: TDM

- Understanding T1 and E1 CAS specifics.
- Understanding T1 and E1 CCS specifics.
Eng: Mohamed

* What is analog connectivity?

-Analog transmission: Using some property of the transmission media to convey
a signal.

- Thomas Edisons phonograph in 1877.

- Record players.
- Braille for the blind.
- Typical home telephone lines.

- Analog phone lines use the properties of electricity for voice transmission.
Eng: Mohamed

* Properties of Electricity:
-As you speak into analog phone your voice is converted in to electricity.

- The properties of the electricity are used to convey the properties of your voice

Eng: Mohamed

* Analog Signaling: 1- Loop and Ground start:

a- Loop Start:
When the receiver is on-hook, the circuit is broken.

Eng: Mohamed

b- Ground Start:
Off-hook signal accomplished by temporarily grounding the ring wire.

Eng: Mohamed

Analog Signaling:
2- Supervisory Signal:
-Used to send the following signals over an analog line:
- On-hook
- Off-hook
- Ringing
- Ringing is sent using AC current rather than DC.

3-Informational Signal:
-Used to send the following signals over an analog line:
- dial tone

- Busy

- Ring back

- Congestion

- No such number - Receiver off-hook

Eng: Mohamed

Eng: Mohamed

Analog Signaling:
4- Address Signal:
- Used to send the dialing information over an analog line:

1- Pulse

2- Dual Tone Multi frequency (DTMF)

Eng: Mohamed

* Problems with analog connections:

1- Distance Limitation:

2- Wiring Requirements:

Eng: Mohamed

How to turn spoken voice into Bits?

The 4 step recipe:
1- Take many samples of the analog signal.
2- Calculate a number representing each samples (AKA Quantization).
3- Convert that number to binary.
4- (Optional) Compress the signal

Eng: Mohamed

Converting Analog to Digital Connections:

-Digitizing Voice:
Step 1: Sample the signal
-The famed Dr: Nyquist formula
- If you sample at twice the highest frequency, you can accurately
reconstruct a signal digitally.

Common Frequencies:
- Human ear

20 - 20,000 Hz
- Human speech
200- 9,000 Hz
- Telephone channels 300-3,400 Hz
- The Nyquist theorem 300-4,000 Hz
Eng: Mohamed

Step 2: Perform Quantization on the sample:

Known as Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM)

Eng: Mohamed

Step 3: Convert the (Quantized) signal to binary:

=10011001

2 PCM method: A-Law, Law

- A Law makes more sense

Know as Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)

Eng: Mohamed

Step 4: Optionally Compress The signal:

You can :
1- Send all these samples
2- Send just the changes
3- Build a codebook
* Standard voice sample: 64 Kbps
* Common compressed value: 8 Kbps

(G.729)

Eng: Mohamed

* Moving from Analog to Digital:

Each number represents a sound that some one made while speaking in to
telephone handset

Eng: Mohamed

Time Division Multiplexing Voice Channels:

Eng: Mohamed

The problem of signaling :

* In our analog world, signals = Electrical frequencies
* Once voice is digitized, signals must be 1s, 0s.
* Two methods of handle signaling in the digital realm:
1- Channel Associated Signaling. (CAS)
2- Common Channel Signaling.

(CCS)

Eng: Mohamed

Eng: Mohamed

1- Channel Associated Signaling: (CAS)

-The least significant bit in every 6th frame is signaling.

-T1 CAS steals bits from voice channel to transfer signaling information. Called (RBS)
Eng: Mohamed

Eng: Mohamed

2- Common Channel Signaling: (CCS)

- CCS dedicates a signaling channel in T1 and E1 lines.
- Most common signaling protocol is Q.931. ( used for ISDN circuit)
- Most popular connection between voice system worldwide.
- More flexibility with signaling message.
- Higher security.
- More B.W for the voice bearer channels.
- CCS also allows PBX vendors to communicate proprietary messages (and features) between
their PBX systems using ISDN signaling, whereas CAS does not offer any of these capabilities.
-When using CCS configurations with T1 lines, the 24th time slot is always
the signaling channel.
- When using CCS configurations with E1 lines, the 17th time slot is always
the signaling channel.
- Other signaling protocols used with CCS configuration is SS7 ( communicate between COs)

* Connection to and between the PSTN.
* PSTN Numbering Plans.
* Understanding Voice Codecs.
* Roles of Digital Signal Processor.
* Choosing Acodec and Sample Size.
* VOIP B.W Saving measures.

Eng: Mohamed

* Pieces of the PSTN:

1- Analog Telephone
2- local Loop
3- Co Switch
4- Trunk
5- private Switch
6- Digital Telephone
Eng: Mohamed

* Different between PBXs and Key Systems:

-PBX Systems:
- Typically have digital PSTN connections.
- Provide each users a unique extension.
- Support a large number of feature.

-Key Systems:
- Typically have analog PSTN connections.
- Uses shared lines between phone.
- Support a smaller number of feature.
Eng: Mohamed

* Connection to and between PSTN:

Eng: Mohamed

* PSTN Numbering Plans:

- PSTN Numbering Plans managed under the ITU (E.164) Standard.
- Country Code.
- National destination code.
- Subscriber number.
-Ex: North American Numbering Plan (NANP)
- Country Code.
- Area Code.
- Central office code.
- Station code.

Eng: Mohamed

* Understanding Voice Codecs:

- The powers that be created a measurement system known as a
Mean Opinion Score (MOS) to rate the quality of the various voice codecs.

- The MOS is expressed as a single number in the range 1 to 5, where 1 is lowest

perceived audio quality, and 5 is the highest perceived audio quality measurement.
Eng: Mohamed

* Table shows how each audio codec fared in MOS testing

-You will hear two codecs continually repeated: G.711, G.729.

- G.729 comes in two different variants: G.729a, G.729b

Eng: Mohamed

* Roles of Digital Signal Processor:

- Cisco designed its routers with one primary purpose in mind: routing.
- In the realm of VOIP, the network requires the router to convert the loads of voice
in to digitized, packetized transmission.
-This task would overwhelm the resources you have on the router.
- DSPs offload the processing responsibility for voice related task from the processor
of the router.
- DSP is a chip that performs all the sampling, encoding, and compression functions
on audio coming into your router.

Eng: Mohamed

-Based on the DSP requirements given by the Cisco DSP calculator, you can
purchase one or more of the following PVDM:
PVDM2-8 : Provides .5 DSP chip
PVDM2-16: Provides 1 DSP chip
PVDM2-32: Provides 2 DSP chips
PVDM2-48: Provides 3 DSP chips
PVDM2-64: Provides 4 DSP chips

Eng: Mohamed

* Choosing A codec and sample size:

- G.711

G.729

G. 726

G.722

G.723

G.728

GSM FR

-Sample size dictates the a mount of audio included in each packet (default 20 ms)
- Larger samples = B.W saving
- Larger samples= more delay
- Bytes per sample = (Sample size * Codec B.W) / 8
Ex:

???

= ( 0.02
=

* 64000

)/8

Eng: Mohamed

* VOIP B.W saving measures:

1- Voice Activity Detection (VAD): Suppress silence in the conversation
Average 35% B.w saving

2- Compressed RTP : Compresses Network and Transport layer header from

40 bytes to 2-4 bytes
B.w saving codec dependent ( a round 40 % with G.729 codec)

Eng: Mohamed

There are three other arguments you can use with the intercom
command to tune the functionality:
barge-in: Automatically places an existing call on hold and causes the intercom
to immediately answer.
no-auto-answer: Causes the phone to ring rather than auto-answer on
speakerphone.
no-mute: Causes the intercom to answer with unmuted speakerphone rather
than muted. Although this is beneficial to allow immediate two-way
conversation, you run the risk of one side barging into existing
conversations or background noise.

Eng: Mohamed

Eng: Mohamed

* Configuring Paging:
1- Paging is a one way speaker phone based announcement.
2- Accomplished by creating a paging number and assigning
IP Phones to the paging number.

- Gratuitous ARP protection.
- PC voice Vlan access.
- IP Phone web browser access.

Eng: Mohamed

Cisco CUCM: Supporting End Users.

Eng: Mohamed

* Benefits of CCM User Accounts:

- Users have the ability to manage their own phone.

- Most soft phone devices require user logins.
- Gives way to advanced features such as extension mobility.
- More sophisticated tracking: per user account.

Eng: Mohamed

* Understanding User Accounts:

- Two categories of users: End users / Application users.
- End user can be added to the CUCM database
via three main method:
- Manual.
- BAT.
- LDAP.
1- Manual Entry:
- User ID.
- Last name.
- Presence group.
- Remote destination limit.
- PIN.
- Password.

Eng: Mohamed

3- LDAP Lightweight Directory Access Protocol:

- LDAP is a standards-based system that allows an organization to create a single,
centralized directory information store.
- LDAP holds information about user accounts, passwords, and user privileges.
- CUCM supports LDAP integration with several widely used LDAP systems,
including the following:
- Microsoft Active Directory (2000, 2003, 2008)
- iPlanet Directory Server 5.1
- Sun ONE Directory Server (5.2, 6.x)
- CUCM can interact with LDAP in two ways:
- LDAP Synchronization
- LDAP Authentication

Eng: Mohamed

* LDAP Synchronization:
- When LDAP Sync is enabled, user accounts must be created and maintained in
LDAP and cannot be created or deleted in CUCM.
- Some user data (but not all) is maintained in LDAP and replicated to the
CUCM database.
- The user password must be maintained in both the LDAP system and in CUCM.
- Some user attributes are not held in LDAP and are still configured in CUCM
because those attributes exist only in the CUCM database.

Eng: Mohamed

* LDAP Authentication:
- LDAP Authentication redirects password authentication requests from
CUCM to the LDAP system.
- End-User account passwords are maintained in the LDAP system
and are not configured, stored, or replicated to CUCM.

Eng: Mohamed

* User account information:

- User account information is divided into three categories, with fields for
specific data in each category:
1. Personal and Organizational Settings:
- User ID

- First, Middle, Last Name

- Department

- Phone Number, Mail ID

- Manager UserID

2. Password Information: Password

3. CUCM Configuration Settings:
- PIN

- SIP Digest Credentials

- User Groups and Roles

- Associated PCs, controlled devices and DNs

- Application and feature parameters (Extension Mobility, Presence Group, CAPF)

Eng: Mohamed

* LDAP Sync Mechanism:

- The first time the synchronization happens, the following events take place:
- All existing end-user accounts in the CUCM database are deactivated (not
deleted).
- Accounts whose CUCM User ID exactly matches a user in LDAP are
reactivated, and any settings from LDAP are updated or applied in the
CUCM database.
- Accounts that exist only in LDAP are created in the CUCM database.
- Any accounts that remain deactivated (meaning they do not exist in LDAP)
are deleted from the CUCM database after 24 hours.

Eng: Mohamed

* Configure LDAP Sync:

The basics steps to set up LDAP Sync are as follows:
1. Activate the Cisco DirSync service.
2. Configure the LDAP system.
3. Configure the LDAP directory.
4. Configure LDAP Custom Filters.

Eng: Mohamed

* Managing Groups, Roles and Privileges:

- Users assigned to groups.
- Groups assigned to one or more Roles.
- Roles assigned to privileges.
