CM: CallManager
The Cisco CallManager is the software-based call-processing component of the Cisco IP telephony solution. The software extends enterprise telephony features and functions to packet telephony network devices such as IP phones, media processing devices, voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways, and multimedia applications. Additional data, voice, and video services such as unified messaging, multimedia conferencing, collaborative contact centers, and interactive multimedia response systems interact with the IP telephony solution through Cisco CallManagers open telephony application programming interface (API).
Seite 6
The Cisco CallManager software product includes a suite of integrated voice applications that performs voice conferencing and manual attendant console functions. The salient benefit of all these voice applications is that specialpurpose voice processing hardware is not required. Supplementary and enhanced services such as hold, transfer, forward, conference, multiple line appearances, automatic route selection, speed dial, last-number redial, and other features are extended to IP phones and gateways. Because it is a software application, enhancing ist capabilities in production environments is a matter of upgrading software on the server platform, thereby avoiding expensive hardware upgrade costs.
Seite 7
Further, Cisco CallManager and all phones, gateways, and applications may be distributed across an IP network, providing a distributed, virtual telephony network. The benefit of this architecture is improved system availability and scalability. Call admission control ensures that voice quality of service (QoS) is maintained across constricted WAN links, and automatically diverts calls to alternate Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) routes when WAN bandwidth is not available.

The Link Layer The function is to ensure that if a device sends a packet of information to CM, or CM sends a packet of information to a device, the sent packet is received. CM uses two methods of communication. TCP and UDP. CM uses TCP for call signaling and media control with IP phones, H.323 gateways, media devices, and other CM nodes. The CM uses UDP for communication with MGCP gateways. The Protocol Layer It includes the logic that CM uses to manage the different types of devices tha tip support. The device include the media devices, trunk devices, and station devices. It also support third-party integration with CM though the TAPI and JTAPI protocols.
Seite 10
The Aggregator Layer It allows CM to properly handle the interaction between groups of related devices. The media resource manager, for example, permits one CM node to locate available media devices, even if they are registered to other CM nodes. The Media Control Layer It handles the actual media connections between devices The Call Control Layer It handles the basic call processing of the system. It locates the destination that a caller dials and coordinates the Media Control, Aggregator and Protocol Layers. Furthermore, it provides the primitives that the Supplemantary Service Layer uses to relate independent calls.
Seite 11
Supplemantary Service Layer It relates independent calls together as part of user-requested features such as call transfer, conference, and call forwarding.

Cisco CallManager Service The Cisco CallManager service runs on the Cisco IP Telephony Applications Server to provide software-only call processing as well as signaling and call control functionality. You install the Cisco CallManager service from the Cisco CallManager CD. Cisco CDR Insert Service When you enable call detail record (CDR) collection, Cisco CallManager writes CDRs to flat files on the subscriber databases as calls are made. The Cisco CDR Insert service periodically inserts the records from these files into the publisher centralized SQL database. The Cisco CDR Insert service does not insert a record if the CDR Format enterprise parameter has a value of Flat.
Seite 30
Cisco TFTP Cisco Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) builds and serves files consistent with the trivial file transfer protocol, a simplified version of FTP. Cisco TFTP serves embedded component executable, ringer files, and device configuration files. A configuration file includes a list of Cisco CallManagers to which devices (telephones and gateways) make connections. When a device boots, the component queries a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server for its network configuration information. The DHCP server responds with an IP address for the device, a subnet mask, a default gateway, a Domain Name System (DNS) server address, and a TFTP server name or address. The device requests a configuration file from the TFTP server. The configuration file contains a list of Cisco CallManagers and the TCP port through which the device connects to those Cisco CallManagers.
Seite 31
Cisco Database Layer Monitor Service The Cisco Database Layer Monitor service monitors aspects of the database layer as well as call detail records (CDR). The database layer comprises a set of dynamic link libraries (DLL) that provide a common access point for applications that need to access the database to add, retrieve, and change data. The Cisco Database Layer Monitor service performs functions such as determining whether the primary server is available during failover, deleting the oldest CDRs when the limit defined in the MaxCDRecords parameter is reached, and moving CDRs from a subscriber to the primary database at a given interval, if needed.
Seite 32
Cisco Messaging Interface Service The Cisco Messaging Interface allows you to connect a simplified message desk interface (SMDI)-compliant external voice-mail system with the Cisco CallManager. The CMI service provides the communication between the voice-mail system and Cisco CallManager. The SMDI defines a way for a phone system to provide a voice-mail system with the information needed to intelligently process incoming calls.
Seite 33
Cisco IP Voice Media Streaming Application Service The Cisco IP Voice Media Streaming Application provides voice media streaming functionality for the Cisco CallManager for use with MTP, conferencing, and music on hold (MOH). The Cisco IP Voice Media Streaming Application relays messages from the Cisco CallManager to the IP voice media streaming driver. The driver handles the RTP streaming. The MTP and conference bridge components of the Cisco IP Voice Media Streaming Application support G.711 mu-law and a-law codecs. The MOH component supports G.711 mu-law/a-law, G.729a, and wideband codecs.
Seite 34
Cisco Telephony Call Dispatcher Service Telephony Call Dispatcher (TCD) service provides centralized services for Cisco WebAttendant clients and pilot points. For Cisco WebAttendant clients, TCD provides call control functionality, line state information for any accessible line within the Cisco CallManager domain, and caching of directory information. For pilot points, TCD provides automatic redirection to directory numbers listed in hunt groups and failover during a Cisco CallManager failure.
Seite 35
Cisco CTIManager Service The CTI (Computer Telephony Interface) Manager contains the CTI components that interface with applications. With CTI Manager, applications have access to resources and functionality of all Cisco CallManagers in the cluster and have improved failover capability. One or more CTI Managers can be active in a cluster, but only one CTI Manager can exist on an individual server. An application (JTAPI/TAPI) can have simultaneous connections to multiple CTI Managers; however, an application can only use one connection at a time to open a device with media termination.
Seite 36
Cisco MOH Audio Translator Service The Cisco MOH Audio Translator service converts audio source files into various codecs, so they can be used by the MOH feature. When you install the Cisco IP Voice Media Streaming Application service, Cisco CallManager automatically installs this service.
Seite 37
Cisco RIS Data Collector The Real-time Information Server (RIS) maintains real-time Cisco CallManager information and provides an interface through which the Cisco RIS Data Collector service and the SNMP Agent retrieve that information. One RIS exists on each node containing the Cisco CallManager service. The Cisco RIS Data Collector service provides an interface for applications, such as Cisco CallManager Serviceability and the Cisco CallManager Administration, to retrieve information stored in all RIS nodes in the cluster.
Seite 38
The Cisco Extended Functions NT service provides support for some Cisco CallManager features, including Cisco Call Back and Quality Report Tool (QRT).

Use locations to implement call admission control in a centralized call processing system. Call admission control enables you to regulate voice quality by limiting the amount of bandwidth that is available for calls over links between the locations.
Seite 135
Automated alternate routing (AAR) provides a mechanism to reroute calls through the PSTN or other network by using an alternate number when Cisco CallManager blocks a call due to insufficient location bandwidth. With automated alternate routing, the caller does not need to hang up and redial the called party. The AAR group represents the dialing area where the line/directory number (DN), the Cisco voice mail port, and the gateway are located. For each AAR group, you enter the prefix digits that are used for automated alternate routing within the AAR group, as well as the prefix digits used for automated alternate routing between a given AAR group and other AAR groups. Devices, such as gateways, phones (by means of directory numbers), and trunks,associate with AAR groups. If automated alternate routing of calls takes place, you may also associate devices with an AAR calling search space.

Call Park The call park feature allows you to place a call on hold, so it can be retrieved from another phone in the system. For example, if you are on an active call at your phone, you can park the call to a call park extension such as 1234. Someone on another phone in your system can then dial 1234 to retrieve the call. You can define either a single directory number or a range of directory numbers for use as call park extension numbers. You can park only one call at each call park extension number.
Seite 146
Call Pickup and Group Call Pickup Two features, call pickup and group call pickup, allow you to answer a call that comes in on a directory number other than your own. When you hear an incoming call ringing on another phone, you can redirect the call to your phone by using the call pickup feature. Cisco IP Phones provide two types of call pickup: Call pickup allows users to pick up incoming calls within their own group. Cisco CallManager automatically dials the appropriate call pickup group number when a user activates this feature on a phone. Group call pickup allows users to pick up incoming calls within their own group or in other groups. Users must dial the appropriate call pickup group number when a user activates this feature on a phone.
Seite 147
Cisco IP Phone Services Using Cisco CallManager Administration, you define and maintain the list of Cisco IP Phone Services to which users can subscribe at their site. Cisco IP Phone Services comprise XML applications that enable the display of interactive content with text and graphics on Cisco IP Phones 7960/7940. Cisco CallManager provides sample Cisco IP Phone Services applications. You can also create customized Cisco IP Phone applications for your site. After you configure the list of services, you can add services to the phones in the database. In Cisco CallManager Administration, you can view and modify settings for phones and device profiles. Users can log on to the Cisco IP Phone User Options application and subscribe to these services for their Cisco IP Phones.

Cisco Voice Mail Port The optional Cisco Unified Open Network Exchange (uOne) software and Cisco Unity software, available as part of Cisco IP Telephony Solutions, provide voice-messaging capability for users when they are unavailable to answer calls. This section describes the procedures that are required for adding and configuring, updating, and deleting Cisco voice-mail and the message waiting indication by selecting Voice Mail from the Feature menu of the Cisco CallManager window and choosing from the submenu options.
Seite 152
Message Waiting The Message Waiting Configuration window allows you to define a message waiting on or message waiting off directory number that a directory-connected based voice-messaging system uses to etermine whether to set or clear a message waiting indication for a particular Cisco IP Phone.
Seite 153
Cisco Voice Mail Pilot The voice mail pilot number designates the directory number that you dial to access your voice messages. Cisco CallManager automatically dials the voice-messaging number when you press the Messages button on your phone. Each pilot number can belong to a different voice-mail messaging system.
Seite 154
Voice Mail Profile Configuration The Voice Mail Profile Configuration window of Cisco CallManager Administration allows you to define any line-related voice-mail information that is associated to a directory number, not a device.
Seite 155
Cisco Call Back The Cisco Call Back feature allows you to receive call back notification on your Cisco IP Phone when a called party line becomes available. To receive call back notification, a user presses the CallBack softkey while receiving a busy or ringback tone. You can activate call back notification on a line on a Cisco IP Phone within the same Cisco CallManager cluster as your phone. You cannot activate call back notification if the called party has forwarded all calls to another extension.
Seite 156
Cisco CallManager Attendant Console Cisco CallManager Attendant Console, a client-server application, allows you to set up Cisco IP Phones as attendant consoles. Employing a graphical user interface, the attendant console uses speed-dial buttons and quick directory access to look up phone numbers, monitor line status, and direct calls. A receptionist or administrative assistant can use the attendant console to handle calls for a department or company, or another employee can use it to manage his own telephone calls. The attendant console installs on a PC with IP connectivity to the Cisco CallManager system. The attendant console works with a Cisco IP Phone that is registered to a Cisco CallManager system. Multiple attendant consoles can connect to a single Cisco CallManager system. The application registers with and receives call-dispatching services from the Cisco Telephony Call Dispatcher (TCD) service on the Cisco CallManager.
