Supported Protocols on the DPA 7630/7610
The DPA 7630/7610 supports several industry-standard and Cisco networking
protocol s re qu ir ed for v o ice com muni cation o v er a n I P ne twor k. Ad diti ona lly, t he
DPA 7630/7610 supports protocols required for remote network management.
Data and Voice Protocols
The DPA 7630 / 76 10 s u pports the fol low ing data an d voice c ommunic ation
protocols.
• Internet Protocol (IP)—addresses and sends packets across the network.
• Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)—allows you to transfer files over the
networ k.
• File Transfer Protocol (FTP)—allows you to transfer files over the network.
• Dynam ic Host Config urat ion Pro toco l (DH CP) —d ynam ically allo cates and
assign s a n I P addres s t o network de vi c es .
• Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP)—enables transporting of real-time data,
such a s i nt e r ac t ive voi ce and video over data ne tw or k s .
Chapter 1Overview
• Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP)—enables communication between
the DPA 7630/7610 and Cisco CallManager.
• Network Time Protocol (NTP)—enables synchronization of time and date
Network Management Protocols
The DPA 7630/7610 supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
and implements several industry-standard Management Information Bases
(MIBs).
Understanding SNMP Support
The DPA 7630/7610 (with software version 1.1 or higher) supports SNMP
versions 1 and 2, enabling you to perform the following commands:
• Get—Retrieve a specific node’s value.
• GetNext—Retrieve the first value present in the ordered tree whose node
succeeds th e o ne specifie d.
Cisco DPA 7630/7610 Voice Mail Gateways Administration Guide

• GetBulk—Retrieve bounded number of values whose nodes succeed, in the
numeric al or de ring , th e on e spec ified. Get Bu lk is availa ble onl y in SNMP v2.
• Set—Set a specific valu e.
Understanding Supported MIBs
The DPA 7630/7610 supports the following MIBs.
RFC 1213
RFC 1213 is the basic MIB 2 specification which indicates the state of network
interface s an d stat is t ics for netw o rk p r ot oc ol s .
The DPA 7630/7610 supports RFC 1213 on the Ethernet interface with the
followi ng cavea ts :
• The digital telephony interfaces are not listed in the ifTable.
• ifAdminStatus cannot be written, and it is fixed at “up”.
• ifLastCha nge ret urn s as “0”.
• ifSpecific returns as “0 , 0 ”.
Understanding the DPA 7630/7610
78-11069-03
• atTable can no t be w r itt en .
• No “ip***” values can be written.
• You cannot write to “tcpConnState” for an active TCP connection.
• The DPA 7630/7610 does not implement the External Gateway Protocol
(EGP).
RMON
The DPA 7630 /7610 impleme nts the Et hernet Statis tics gro up in Remo te Netw ork
Monitori ng ( RM O N ) , with the excep t io n of “E therStatsS ta tu s .” Th is is fixed at
“valid” and ca nn o t b e w r it te n.
Cisco CDP MIB
Cisco D is c ove r y P ro to c o l (CDP) is a meth od that Cisco devices us e to adver tise
their presence and to discover information about other nearby devices. The
DPA 7630/7610 implements all objects in this MIB with the exception of
“cdpGlobalRun”. This object returns “true” when read, and cannot be written
using S N MP.

Understanding How the DPA 7630/7610 Works
DRAFT - CISCO CONFIDENTIAL
Cisco Process MIB
This MIB describes the processes currently running on the device. However,
because the DPA 7630/7610 has threads, rather than processes, running on it the
MIB is implement ed w ith the following caveats:
• The amount of memory allocated is not recorded on a per-thread basis.
Therefore, cp mP roc Ex tM emAllocated and cpmPro cEx tM e m Fre ed are
returned as 0.
• All threads run at the same priority. Therefore, for every process
cpmProc E x tPr iority wil l be returned as “no rmal.”
• It is not possible to change a process’s priority so attempts to write
“cpmProcEx tP r ior it y” ar e u n suc cess f u l.
Calista DPA MIB
The DPA 7630/7610 supports an additional DPA-specific Cisco MIB in version
1.2(1 ) and late r. The MIB O ID is :

Why is the DPA 7630/7610 Needed?
If you want to migrate your telephony system from a Definity G3 PBX or a
Meridian 1 PBX to Cisco CallManager, you must decide whether to do a complete
cutover to Cis c o CallManager or to migrate slowly. If you do a comp lete cutover
to Cisco CallMan ager and C is co ’s voice m ai l so lution, you do n o t n ee d th e
DPA 7630/7610. However, if you are slowly migrating your systems, you might
want to mai nt ain s om e phon es on the De f i nity or Me ridia n 1 PB X while ins t all ing
new phones on the Cisco CallManager system. You might want to use your
existing O ct el voice mail s y s tem w it h your Cis c o CallManager sys t em . In t he s e
cases, the D PA 7630/761 0 ca n as sis t y our m i grat io n to Cisco Cal lM anager.
Can I Just Use SMDI?
One difficulty with m i g ra tio n is that voi ce mail sy stems such as Octel w er e
designed to integrate to only one PBX at a time. To resolve this difficulty, many
people u s e S i mplified M ess ag e Desk I nt e r fac e ( SMDI), wh ic h was de sig ned to
enable integ rated voice mail s ervi ces to mult iple cli ents .
Understanding How the DPA 7630/7610 Works
However, to use SMDI , y our vo i ce m a il s yst em m u st meet several q ua lifi cat io n s:
• It must have sufficient database capacity to support two PBX systems
simultan eo u sly an d t o as so ciate each ma ilbox with th e c or r ec t P B X in ord e r
to send M W I in f orm ation on the correct link.
• It mus t be possible to physi cally con nect th e I P n e t wo r k to the vo ice
messagi ng syste m w hile ma in ta in in g the existi ng physi cal li nk to the PBX.
• It must sup p ort an alo g integrati on . SMDI is pr i m arily an anal og technolog y.
Additionally, SMDI requires reconfiguration of your existing telephony network.
What If I Cannot Use SMDI?
SMDI might not be an option for you, particularly if you are using a digital
interface on y o ur Oc t el systems. O ct el s yst em s w ith d ig it a l li ne car d s emulate
digital phones, appearing to the PBX as digital extensions, referred to as per-port

When you use the DPA 7630/7610, it emulates a PBX for the Octel voice mail
system an d em u la tes up to 24 C isco I P Ph on es in Cisco CallM an ag er. In th is
setup, wh en a call goes t o voice mail, Cisco CallM an ag er r ing s o ne o f th e
emulated Cisco IP Phones (which is a port on the DPA 7630/7610). The
DPA 7630/7610 translates this ringing to a corresponding Octel voice mail port.
Other aspects of the phone behavior that the DPA 7630/7610 translates include
the formatting of the information on the display, line light behavior, call
transfer ring, an d settin g MW Is.
For example, to activate a Definity MWI, the Octel system goes off-hook on one
of its ports and dials a feature access code (typically *4) followed by the extension
number. The DPA 7630 mu s t recognize th is an d tr an slat e t he sequen ce to th e
appropri ate s et of I P messages fo r Ci s co CallM an ag er.
Understanding Interactions with the Cisco CallManager System
The DPA 7630/7610 connects to the IP network and accesses a
Cisco C all M an ag er TF TP s er ver t o g et it s p ort co nfigu r ati on and
Cisco CallManager list. After the configuration information has been transmitted
using TFTP, the DPA 7630/7610 tries to register its virtual port (port 25) to the
first Cisc o CallManager fro m th e Ci s co CallM an ager list u sin g Skinny Client
Control Protocol (SCCP).
This virtual por t handles all the MWI commands sent f r om the Octel , destined to
the Cisco Call Manager . As Octel voice and MWI ports are connected to the DPA
7630/7 610, each connected port on the DPA 7630/7610 the n registers as a 30 VIP
IP phone with the C is co Cal l M anage r.

If you want to connect Cisco CallManager to Octel voice mail and Definity or
Meridia n 1 PBX sy ste ms, you must us e t he hy bri d int e g rati on mode. In th e hyb ri d
configuration, the DPA 7630/7610 handles processing and signaling among the
Octel, Cisco CallManager, and Definity or Meridian 1 systems (see Figure 2-5).

Understanding Interaction with the Octel and PBX Systems
A Cisco CallMan ag er I P -bas e d tel ep ho ny s y stem can be co nnected to a P B X
using an ISDN PRI card in the Definity or Meridian 1 PBX systems and an ISDN
PRI gateway on the IP network. This setup allows users on the IP phones and
users on the Definity or Meridian 1 digital phones to make and receive telephone
calls to each othe r.
However, this co nfigurat io n does no t resol ve many of t he follow in g issues w i th
the voice m ail system :
• The PRI link loses information.
When a u ser o n an I P p ho n e a ccesses the voice m ai l sy s te m d ir ec tly, the
extensi on numbe r of the IP phone is not tr ansfe rred acro ss the ISDN PRI l ink.
Therefore, the voice mail system cannot give the correct greeting to the user
of the IP phone, and users must enter their voice mailbox number.
• The voice m a il s ystem cann ot activate the M W I li gh t of IP p ho n es .
On a Defi nity P B X , th e voice mail s y ste m co n tr ol s th e ph o ne s ’ MWI lights
by dialing feature access codes. This does not work across the ISDN PRI link.
For exampl e, if IP ph o ne 1 23 4 is lef t a m e s sag e , th e vo ice mail s yst em
notifies the PBX to light MWI 1234, which the PBX considers an error
becaus e it doe s not ha ve exten sion 1234 .
2-8
To resolve these problems, up to 16 of the ports on the DPA 7630/7610 can
connec t t o th e O ctel system in the s am e way as in the sim p le in tegr at io n m o de.
You can then set up a separate hunt group for the IP phones, which is accessed
using one of the line s conne cted to the DPA 7630/7610. This solution enables the
following call types to function properly because the caller and number are no
longer l ost:
• Direct ca ll s to the voice ma i l sy stem from an I P ph o ne
• Calls to an I P p h on e t h at are forwar de d to voi ce m ai l
Because the Octel voice mail system cannot determine which MWI lines are used
for parti cu lar e xte nsi on s, t he DPA 7630/7610 must ha ndle all M WI re ques t s from
the Octel system. Therefore, the remaining 8 ports on the DPA 7630/7610 must
connect to th e De fi ni ty or Meri di an 1 PBX s ys tem . The DPA 7630/7610 per for ms
a pass-th r o ugh oper at io n on these po rt s , a llow in g the Oc tel , D e fin ity, and
Meridian 1 systems to function as before.

However, because the DPA 7630/7610 does not have knowledge about the dial
plans, it sends the M WI co m ma nd t o th e C is c o CallManag er and the D efinit y or
Meridian 1 P B X sy stem. The DPA 7630/7610 ig no res a ny erro r s r ece ived fr om
either th e PBX or Ci s co CallManager.
Understanding Interactions with the Cisco CallManager System
Using the hybrid integration method, the DPA 7630/7610 emulates up to 17 IP
phones. There is one emulated phone for each line (up to 16) connected to the
Octel sy st em a nd o n e f or s e tt in g MWIs on th e Ci s co CallM an ag er sys tem . Th e
remaining eight ports on the DPA 7630/7610 connect to the Definity or
Meridian 1 syste m and do no t ap pe ar in C isco CallM an ag er.
Because the lines provide specific services (incoming calls, outgoing calls, setting
MWIs), you need to con fig u re th em accordingl y in C isco CallM an ag er. Ref er to
the “Configuring the DPA Ports and Phones” section on page 4-10 for details.
Implementing the Hybrid Integration
T o impl e ment t he hyb rid i nte gra t io n, you mus t con ne ct t he DPA 7630/7610 to th e

You can designate each line to handle incoming or outgoing messaging, but
a single line cannot support both.
• Line B (po rts 9 -16 ) conne cts to th e Oc tel syst em. A port ion o f th ese line s ca n

Figure 2-7 illustrates in detail to connect the wires from the DPA 7630 to the
Definity PBX system. Starting with port 1, you skip a port, cross the next two
ports, skip a port, cross the next two ports, and so on. For example:
• Leave pair 1 unused on both the DPA 7630 and Definity PBX
• Cross pairs 2 and 3, so that Tx (transmit) from DPA 7630 connects with Rx

• Leave pair 4 unused on both the DPA 7630 and Definity PBX
• Cross pairs 5 and 6, so that Tx (transmit) from DPA 7630 connects with Rx

Additi onal ly, Ci s co Call Manag er requir es uni qu e MA C ad dres se s for all device s,
but all 24 ports on the DPA 7630/7610 share the same MAC address. Therefore,
auto-regis tr at io n in cl ud es a proces s th at converts the M AC a dd r ess es into t hi s
form a t:
1. The first two digits for the MAC address are dropped.
2. The numbe r is sh ifted tw o pl aces to the left.
3. The two-digit port number is added to the right.
For example, if the MAC addr ess is
000039A44218
the MAC address registered for port 12 in CallManager is
0039A4421812
The 25th (virtual) port is automatically assigned the MAC address of

(depending on the PBX version), and you cannot modify it. This restriction limits
both the number of phones available to the hunt group and the number of Octel
ports that can be part of the group.
T o avoid this restriction, you can use ACD groups, which can be much larger than
the hunt groups.

Regardless of the method you use, you must verify the method in use so you can

Meridian 1 system, check the configuration of key 0 on the phones connected to
the Octel s y stem:
• If key 0 is defined to be an ACD key, then Octel is in ACD mode.
• If key 0 is defined to be an SCR or SCN key, then Octel is in Hunt mode.
Assigning Incoming, Outgoing, and MWI Lines
On the Octel system, you must specify how each line is used, following these

You set the time offset using seconds. For example, if the NTP server sends GMT
time and you are in PST, the offset is -8 hours, which is:
-8 (hours) x 60 (minutes) x 60 (seconds) = -28800 seconds
Therefore, in t hi s exa mp le, en ter - 2 88 0 0 in th e time offset field .
If the NTP server reports using your local time, set the value to 0.
