Establishing the system baseline
To successfully integrate voice services, you must first establish the
system baseline for the Call Server, Signaling Server, and Business
Communications Manager (BCM) so that the systems are configured and
working in a stand-alone environment.
Use Table 3 "Pre-integration checklist" (page 19) to complete system
baselines prior to integration.

Although you can configure the Communication Server 1000 and IP Peer
Networking through overlays, the use of Element Manager and Network
Routing Services (NRS) Manager are recommended. The Element
Manager Web server resides on the Signaling Server and you can access
it directly through a Web browser or by using Optivity Telephony Manager
(OTM). You must configure NRS through Network Routing Service Manager
(NRS Manager), which you can access only through the Element Manager.
Configure the Call Server through Element Manager in the following order:
•H.323 Call Server
•
H.323 Gate Keeper

Configuration for the SIP protocol is very similar to that of the Call Server.
If you select YES at the CRID prompt, a new line (SIP message) is added to
the end of the Call Detail Record. This message shows the SIP addressing
scheme.
The SIP Gateway also supports H.323 Gateway functionality so that both
Gateways can interoperate. Also, you can point the virtual trunks, whether
they are H.323 or SIP, to the same node ID on the signaling server. Then,
the signaling server can perform the signaling for both protocols.
Enabling the SIP Virtual Trunk application
Perform the following procedure to enable SIP functionality in Element
Manager. You must reboot the system during this procedure.

Configuring the SIP Redirect Server and URI map
Use this procedure to configure your SIP numbering plan mapping. You
can use this mapping to interpret TON/NPI numbers and map them to the
associated context (to or from SIP). The TON/NPI field explicitly maps to the
SIP phone-context attribute in the URI address.

Configuring IP networking for SIP
The IP Peer Networking configuration for SIP in the Call Server is similar
to the H.323 configuration. For each Call Server in the IP Peer Network,
perform the following tasks:
1. Define the customer to support ISDN (LD 15).
2. Create the virtual D-channel (LD 17).
3. Configure the zones (LD 117).
4. Create the virtual route (LD 16).
Enter SIP in the VTRK page.
5. Create the virtual trunk.
6. Create the ESN data block for CDP (LD 86).
7. Create the Network Control (NCTL) block for network access (LD 87).
8. Create the RLB that uses the virtual trunk route (LD 86).
9. Create the CDP steering codes (LD 87).
If the system is already configured for H.323, you do not need to perform
steps 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7 again.

The Network Routing Service (NRS) uses a basic SIP structure for its
configuration, which is applicable for SIP, H.323, and Network Connection
Server (NCS) call completion. This structure is the basis of the single
network dialing/numbering plan.
Before you begin configuration of the NRS, gather the names of all domains
and subdomains.

Configuring Gateway endpoints
Add an endpoint for both the Communication Server 1000 (CS 1000) and
Business Communications Manager (BCM) systems.
These are Gateway endpoints, which can be served by several users. You
can add multiple endpoints, some SIP-only, some H.323-only, and Unistim.
You can also configure a user endpoint, which can be only one of these
three protocols.

RAS H.323 Endpoint is recommended.
If an H.323 Gateway Endpoint is configured
with an H.323 Support type of RAS H.323
endpoint, NRS Manager displays Endpoint
Dynamic Registration information after the
H.323 Gateway registers with the NRS.
Endpoint Dynamic Registration information
includes Call Signaling IP, RAS IP, Alias
name, t35Country code, t35Extension,
Manufacturer code, Product ID, and Version
ID.
Dynamic SIP Endpoint is recommended.
If a SIP Trunk Gateway Endpoint is
configured with a SIP Support type of
Dynamic SIP endpoint, NRS Manager
displays Endpoint Dynamic Registration

Gateway registers with the NRS.
Endpoint Dynamic Registration Information
includes SIP IP, Registration expiry time,

Configuring collaborative servers
A Collaborative Server is a server in another network zone that can
resolve requests when your NRS cannot find a match in its numbering
plan database.
You can specify a list of Networking Routing Servers in different network
zones in your NRS. The NRS Manager provides a utility for adding and
viewing a list of NRSs (Collaborative Servers) in different network zones.
