Introduction
This section provides an overview of Converged Desktop Services (CDS)
to give the user a perspective on what CDS is, how it works, and what
it requires. This section also provides an overview of dialing plan and
numbering plan issues for mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 networks.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
This document is intended to assist technical administrators in designing
and configuring a Converged Desktop environment between CS 1000 and
MCS 5100 systems. The examples provided in this document represent
only one example of design and configuration. "Description of the network
configured in this document" (page 48) provides the outline of the network
used as an example only.
How Converged Desktop Services works
Session Initiation Protocol Converged Desktop Service (SIP CDS) is a CS
1000 and MCS 5100 feature. SIP CDS allows users to have simultaneous
access to multimedia features on MCS 5100, and to business grade
telephony features on CS 1000 systems. The Converged Desktop feature
gives users access to business grade telephony features not supported
by the SIP standard, while also allowing users to take advantage of the
multimedia functionality of MCS 5100. The user’s existing telephone is
used for telephony functionality while the PC Client delivers the multimedia
features.
A Converged Desktop consists of a telephone and multimedia PC Client
(PCC) software (see Figure 1 "Converged Desktop" (page 14)). The
supported telephones include analog (500 or 2500-type) telephones, digital
telephones, and IP Phones. A SIP Phone cannot be configured as a
Converged Desktop. A SIP telephone can be configured on the MCS 5100
as a stand-alone device or be tied to a PC Client. In both instances, the SIP
telephone receives only features associated with the MCS 5100.
Figure 1
Converged Desktop
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
In Converged Mode, both the CS 1000 telephone and the MCS 5100 PC
Client are integrated to provide both feature sets. In Converged Mode, the
CS 1000 telephone effectively becomes the audio device for the MCS 5100
PC Client, so that any audio requirement from the MCS 5100 user (for
example, Click-to-Call) is directed to the CS 1000 telephone.
A user may selectively deactivate Converged Mode, so both the MCS 5100
client and the CS 1000 telephone become stand-alone devices. This allows
remote users to utilize the MCS 5100 client for both multimedia and voice
functionality (for example, using a USB headset with the MCS 5100 PC
Client). The voice functionality on a MCS 5100 client in Unconverged Mode
is limited to the voice features supported on the MCS 5100. The CS 1000
telephone maintains its full feature set as programmed.
The Converged Desktop feature utilizes the CDS software on the Signaling
Server and the SIP Trunking Application to integrate the two systems.
These functions became available in CS 1000 Release 4.0.
CDS is enabled between CS 1000 and MCS 5100 using several
components, including:
•
SIP Trunking Application — SIP Gateway and Virtual Trunk Route
•
CDS on the Signaling Server
•
Application Module Link (AML) and Value Added Server (VAS) assigned
to the CDS application over the common ELAN subnet
•
Control Directory Number (CDN) (Converged Services Directory
Number [CSDN]) to trigger messaging over the AML/VASlink associated
with CDS
•
Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) queue with agents — used for the
Personal Call Assistant (PCA) application associated with CDS
•
telephone Class of Service — used to enable Converged Desktop
messaging
•
telephone option for CSDN — redirects inbound calls directed to the
telephone to CSDN to enable Converged Desktop signaling
•
optional Recorded Announcement (RAN) route — used to play progress
or delay indication to caller while waiting for PCA agent
•
Converged Desktop as a part of the Service Package for the MCS
Client user
•
dialing plan for CS 1000 and MCS 5100
In general, when a CS 1000 user is designated as a Converged Desktop
user, they receive a CS 1000 telephone and an MCS 5100 PC Client. The
telephone is programmed with a Class of Service to allow CDS messaging
(the options described in "CDS configuration: overview" (page 47)).
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
When a call terminates to the CS 1000 telephone, the CDMV or CDMO
Class of Service redirects the call to the CSDN defined on the telephone,
before ringing the CS 1000 telephone. The CSDN is a CDN used for CDS.
This CDN number is also configured on the Signaling Server so that it can
be acquired by the CDS application when the Signaling Server starts.
When the call terminates to the CDN a message is sent over AML/VAS to
the CDS as notification of the incoming call. If the call is a virtual trunk
call, and queued on a CDN, a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) resource is
used to play the ringback to the caller because CDN is a TDM resource. (A
DSP resource is required to handle media between a TDM resource and
an IP resource.) The CDS cannot determine where the call terminates,
either on the CS 1000 telephone or in the SIP network; the termination
location is based on the user’s Advanced Screening options in the MCS
5100 Client. Therefore, the CDS instructs the Call Server to make a Virtual
Trunk call to a predetermined number, as defined on the Signaling Server
(the Service DN used for making a VTRK call from an Agent) and the CS
1000 dialing plan. This call reserves a Virtual Trunk in case it is required to
terminate the call to a SIP device (if so configured in the user’s Advanced
Screening options). After the Virtual Trunk call is established, CDS sends a
SIP INVITE message to the MCS 5100 using the SIP Gateway Application.
The MCS 5100 receives the INVITE message and processes it on the
user’s PC Client. The user’s Advanced Screening options are checked for
any rules that determine the destination. If no rules exist and the user is
in Converged Mode, the MCS 5100 notifies the CDS application to notify
the converged telephone. The CDS bridges the call and the Virtual Trunk is
dropped. An MCS 5100 call notification screen-pop appears, and the CS
1000 telephone rings. The call is answered on the CS 1000 telephone and
call logs are generated on the MCS 5100 PC Client. If the caller is another
SIP device or Converged Desktop user, all MCS 5100 features become
available for the call.
For outbound calls, the user may use their MCS client in a Click-to-Call
scenario or use the keypad of their CS 1000 telephone. When using the
MCS 5100 Client, the user has access to all directories available and can
process a call. When the user selects a directory entry or dials a telephone
number, the MCS 5100 sends an INVITE message to the CS 1000, and
CDS processes the call to the CS 1000 telephone. The telephone must be
answered before CDS can process the second leg of the call. When the call
is answered at the CS 1000 telephone, the destination called and the two
calls are bridged together. The PCA application is used for making these
calls. The MCS 5100 Client activates call logs. If the destination is another
SIP device, the MCS 5100 Client allows multimedia features.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
In Converged Mode, incoming and outgoing calls to and from a converged
telephone notify the MCS 5100. Upon notification, the MCS 5100 then
provides different SIP services and features to the user. The features
include the following, depending on where the call is destined, or from
where it originated.
All calls to or from a Converged Desktop user receive:
•
Call log — Allows a user to see who has called and when the call
occurred.
•
Real-time call state update — Provides the presence (status) of a user.
For example, "active on the phone" or "active available".
•
Presence update — Displays the status of other users if the user is
added in the Friends list. The Friends list is a list of friends/users that
were added (by the user) from the Personal Directory Book, Global
Directory Book, or from the call logs. This feature is provided by the
MCS 5100 to all PC Clients (including the Converged PCC). Activity on
the telephone can update the presence on the PC Client. For example,
establishing a voice call to the telephone can update your presence for
all registered MCS 5100 users to a presence update such as "Active on
the phone". Other presence updates include "Available", "Unavailable",
or "Offline".
•
Popup window on the converged PC Client — Opens a window when
receiving a call. The user sees the caller’s name and picture ID (if a
picture is available). A popup window also opens when the user calls
another Converged Desktop user or calls a stand-alone SIP user.
•
Click-to-Call — Allows a user to click a contact from their PC Client and
make a call. The call is initiated from the PC Client but the call is placed
from the telephone. For more information, see "Click-to-Call" (page 25).
The following features are available if the call if originated on, or destined
for, a SIP client:
•Application sharing — Allows users to share applications such as
whiteboard functionality, clipboard transfers, instant messaging, and
file transfers.
•
Video — Allows users to have a video conversation. The voice portion
of the conversation is provided by the telephone and the video portion
is provided by the PC Client. It is possible to add video to an already
initiated telephone conversation. If in Converged Mode, the video
can be started manually from the PC Client. The Converged Desktop
application knows from where to pick up the video because the
requested video session is bound with the voice conversation. If the
voice conversation is dropped, then the video session is automatically
closed.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Web co-browsing — Allows users to share a web browser. If both users
have the web co-browsing feature, then one user can automatically
control (or drive) the other user’s web browser.
All of these features are achieved by sending originating and terminating
call notifications to the MCS 5100.
Users in a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network
CS 1000 and MCS 5100 systems can interoperate directly using SIP. Both
systems can be deployed in a single mixed customer network. Table 1
"Types of users in a mixed CS 1000 and MCS 5100 customer network"
(page 18) shows the three types of users in this mixed CS 1000 and MCS
5100 customer network.
Table 1
Types of users in a mixed CS 1000 and MCS 5100 customer network
UserDescription
CS 1000 userA CS 1000 user has an account created on the CS 1000 system. The only
client available to the CS 1000 user is a client under CS 1000 control.
This user does not have an account on the MCS 5100 system and the user
cannot use clients under MCS 5100 control.
MCS 5100 userAn MCS 5100 user has an account created on the MCS 5100 system. The
only client available to the MCS 5100 user is a client under MCS 5100
control.
This user does not have an account on the CS 1000 system. The user
cannot use clients under CS 1000 control.
Converged Desktop
(CD) user
A Converged Desktop user has two accounts:
•
a CS 1000 account
•
an MCS 5100 account
The Converged Desktop user also has two available clients:
•a client under CS 1000 control (for example, an IP Phone 2004)
•
a client under MCS 5100 control (the Multimedia PC Client)
A Converged PC Client always uses the CS 1000 client as an endpoint
for audio streams (in this configuration, the Multimedia PC Client cannot
terminate/originate audio streams). A call itself can be initiated on the CS
1000 client or on the Multimedia PC Client. The Multimedia PC Client uses
the "Click-to-Call" mechanism to engage the CS 1000 client in the call.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Note: When a Converged Desktop user is not in a converged state, the
user effectively becomes an MCS 5100 user and the CS 1000 device
becomes a stand-alone voice device.
Converged Mode and Unconverged Mode
An MCS 5100 client can be in one of the two following modes:
•
Converged Mode — The MCS 5100 client uses the CS 1000 voice path.
It also uses the AML link for CDS signaling.
•Unconverged Mode — The MCS 5100 client uses the MCS 5100 voice
path. It does not use the AML link for CDS signaling.
The mode is defined when each Client is configured.
Note: Thisdocument assumes that the MCS 5100 client is in Converged
Mode. Exceptions for Unconverged Mode are noted.
CDS originating and terminating call handling
The implementation of the Converged Desktop Service includes two parts:
•
outgoing call (or a telephone-originated call) notification to the MCS 5100
•
incoming call (or a call terminated on a converged telephone) notification
to the MCS 5100
Users in Converged Mode can be defined with two Classes of Services for
Converged Desktop:
•
CDMO = Converged Desktop Multimedia Only — The user has an MCS
5100 PC Client and a CS 1000 desktop telephone. The user has access
to all MCS 5100 multimedia features (such as video), except Personal
(PA) routing.
•
CDMV = Converged Desktop Multimedia and Voice — The user has an
MCS 5100 PC Client and a CS 1000 desktop telephone. The user has
access to all MCS 5100 multimedia features (such as video), including
PA routing.
Making a call
Users can make an outgoing Converged Desktop call in two ways:
•
Dial from a CS 1000 telephone.
•
"Dial" from an MCS 5100 PC Client (Click-to-Call) in one of the following
ways:
— Press the Make a call button.
— Select from a Call Log.
A call from the inbox to the PSTN is not supported.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
When receiving a call, the functionality of the PC Client is different from that
when making a call. With CDMO, a call to a converged telephone always
rings the converged telephone. It does not invoke PA routing. But with
CDMV, a call to a converged telephone on MCS 5100 invokes PA routing to
determine if it is to ring the converged telephone or another telephone.
AML ELAN numbers and VAS numbers
The messaging required for CDS to operate between the CS 1000 Call
Server and the Signaling Server is achieved by defining two functions:
•
Application Module Link (AML) — AML is the definition of a link to
provide connectivity between two applications.
•
Value Added Server (VAS) — VAS is the Application Layer link carried
through the AML link.
A new range of AML/VAS IDs has been created for CDS. To distinguish
this AML link from existing AML ELAN links, the AML ELAN link numbers
and VAS numbers are:
•
a range of 32–47 (inclusive) on Small Systems
•a range of 32–127 (inclusive) on Large Systems
with numbers greater than 32 reserved for the "logical" AML ELAN link.
These numbers enable multiple CDS gateways and multiple MCS 5100
systems to be supported on CS 1000 systems in addition to other Meridian
Link products (such as Symposium, CallPilot, or IP Call Recording), which
also use ELAN link numbers.
The 16 existing AML links are used for physical connections to other
applications.
Click-to-Call
The Click-to-Call feature enables users to originate voice calls from their PC
Client when in Converged Mode. This feature is not available to CS 1000
telephones not configured for CDS.
Note: Click-to-Call operation for MCS 5100 Clients in Unconverged
Mode may differ from that described.
When the call is established, a voice path is set up between the telephone
of the originating converged user and the terminating side. The PC Client is
not used to establish the voice path.
The user originates a Click-to-Call call by clicking on a number or address
from such things as an address book, a call log, a buddies list, an inbox, an
outbox, or by entering an address in an address field on the PC Client.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
The following steps must be performed when using Click-to-Call:
•
The caller makes a call from the PC Client software and the caller’s
telephone rings.
•
The caller must answer their telephone when it rings if the desktop
telephone is an analog (500/2500-type) telephone or is part of a Multiple
Appearance DN (MADN) group. Answering the telephone then directs
the call to the called party. However, the call is automatically answered
if the desktop telephone is a digital telephone or an IP Phone and is
a Single Appearance DN.
Note: If the caller is in an MADN group, and the answered phone is
configured with the default on-hook path Handsfree, the answered
phone rings the called party using handsfree, even if the call is answered
using a headset. This occurs because the answered phone makes the
new call to the called party using the default on-hook path.
Operating parameters and feature interactions
The following items apply to all Converged Desktop users (including both
incoming and outgoing Converged Desktop calls):
•
When a Converged Desktop user is a member of a Multiple Appearance
Directory Number (MADN) group, the user must be Multiple Appearance
Redirection Prime (MARP) to receive the Converged Desktop Service.
Or,all users in the same MADN group must be configured with the same
Class of Service, so that they receive the same Converged Desktop
Service.
•The CDS feature applies only to a primary DN key. Calls made or
received on any other keys do not receive the Converged Desktop
Service.
•
If a call is answered by any non-Converged Desktop telephone, then the
popup window, call log, and presence of the Converged Desktop user
are removed after a few seconds. The timeout value for this setting is
configurable (default value is 2 seconds).
•
A ConvergedDesktop user does not receive a popup window if the caller
is an attendant and is using the Attendant Monitor feature. An attendant
call terminating to the Converged Desktop does not notify the MCS 5100.
•
Group Call does not apply to a Converged Desktop caller. Initiating
Group Call from a Converged Desktop user does not notify the MCS
5100.
•
MCS 5100 clients can be in Converged Mode or Unconverged Mode.
The selected mode determines which functionality is available, as
described throughout this document.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
In the Converged Desktop Environment, voice mail is supported only on
the CS 1000 telephone, not the MCS 5100 Client.
Call walk-throughs
The figures in this section show messages exchanged between a CS 1000
system and an MCS 5100 system with different configurations. Although
two CS 1000 systems appear in the figures, they collapse into one if the
call is internal.

MCS 5100 systems
MCS 5100 systems require MCS 5100 Release 3.5 or later software.
Product Enhancement Packages and Patches
In addition, you must ensure that all required Product Enhancement
Packages (PEP) and patches are installed. For a list of the required PEPs
and patches, refer to the Nortel web site at:
ww.nortel.com
w
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
For CDS to operate, you must have the following conditions in place:
•
MCS 5100 clients must assume the location identifier (LOC) of a CS
1000 system. This enables one MCS 5100 system to provide CDS to
many CS 1000 systems, having the MCS 5100 clients assume the
location identifier (LOC) of each CS 1000 system.
•
The dialing plan and numbering plan between the CS 1000 systems and
the MCS 5100 system must be compatible. See "Dialing and numbering
plan issues for the mixed network" (page 30), and "Examples of dialing
and numbering plan configuration for mixed networks" (page 37).
Note: If the original converged phone is call forwarded to another
number, the forwarded phone is used as the terminator, however the
Converged Multimedia PC Client call window for the original Converged
phone continues to appear.
Implementation summary
In order to use SIP Converged Desktop Services, the SIP Trunk Gateway
must first be configured. See IP Peer Networking Installation andCommissioning (NN43001-313).
Configuration of the SIP CDS requires configuration on both the CS 1000
system and the MCS 5100 system. For CS 1000 configuration, refer to
"Configuring CS 1000" (page 49). For MCS 5100 configuration, refer to
"Configuring MCS 5100" (page 67).
Dialing and numbering plan issues for the mixed network
In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network, special attention must be placed
on addressing.
If a call is originated by a CS 1000 user and the call must terminate at an
MCS 5100 user, the destination address given to the MCS 5100 system
must make sense for the MCS translation engine. The same requirement
applies to the call in the opposite direction — a destination address passed
to the CS 1000 system by the MCS 5100 must make sense to the CS 1000
translation engine.
Digit-based addresses and alphanumeric addresses
The CS 1000 translation engine supports only digit-based addresses. An
example is 5573.
The MCS 5100 translation engine supports both digit-based and
alphanumeric addresses. Examples are 3435573 and asmith.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Rule 1: All users in a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network must be accessible by
all systems through a digit-based address.
On the MCS 5100 system, each username must have an alias that is all digits,
or each username must be all digits.
Dialing plan issues
The term "dialing plan" is used in a very broad sense in this context. It
includes all the arrangements that determine an exact digit sequence that
the user must dial to access a destination. To access a destination, a user
must know an appropriate access code (for the type of destination being
called) and the unique address of the destination (within a certain address
space).
In most cases, a set of the following access codes may be needed:
•
access code for private/UDP numbers (for example, 6)
•
access code for public/local numbers (for example, 9 used for the NXX in
North America and for local exchange Special Numbers (SPN) outside
North America)
Dialing and numbering plan issues for the mixed network31
ATTENTION
•
access code for public/national numbers (for example, 61)
•access code for public/international numbers (for example, 6011)
No access code is needed for private/CDP numbers.
Special numbers used to access a service (for example, 911 and 411)
are a special case. Depending on which system is providing the special
number service (CS 1000, MCS 5100, or PSTN), the special number can be
accessed as follows:
•
without dialing an access code (for example, with an emergency service
the user dials 911)
•
with an access code (for example, with the PSTN directory service the
user may be required to dial 9411).
ATTENTION
Rule 2: In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network, both systems must have the
dialing plan set up in the same manner. MCS 5100 clients in Converged Mode
must share the UDP LOC of the CS 1000 client with which it is converged.
For example, at a certain location, a user must be able to make a call to a UDP
number by dialing the same digit string on a CS 1000 client as on an MCS 5100
client.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Rule 2 is important for a CD user. Although a CD user can enter a
destination number on the Multimedia PC Client, the call itself is originated
under CS 1000 control.
DNs as MCS aliases versus DNs as MCS usernames
This section describes how to assign a digit-based address (that is, directory
number [DN]) to an MCS 5100 user.
The following options are available to associate a DN with an MCS user:
•
Provision the user’s username in the form of a DN.
•Provision the user’s alias in the form of a DN.
You must also do the following as part of the setup:
•
Provision the user’s CD alias in the form of a DN.
•
Provision the user’s public and private charge ID in the form of a DN.
The existing MCS practice is to provision a user with an alias in the DN
form. This works for non-converged MCS 5100 users but presents problems
to CD users when they initiate calls from the converged Multimedia PC
Client in the Click-to-Call mode, specifically from the following locations:
•
Call Logs – Inbox window
•
Friends Online window
•
Directory window
In the cases, if the item represents an MCS 5100 user, the call is initiated
towards the destination identified by the MCS username. In the case of a
CD user, the call is actually handled by the CS 1000 Call Server that can
route based on DN addresses only. To ensure that the CS 1000 Call Server
receives a DN-based address, the MCS 5100 replaces the username with
the user’s private charge ID.
Rule 3: In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network with Converged Desktop users,
MCS 5100 private charge IDs must be in the form of a UDP number (LOC + DN).
Directory Number qualification
An additional aspect of using digit-based addressing is the directory number
qualification.
Existing telephony systems support multiple address spaces. The address
spaces include the following:
ATTENTION
•
Public address space — which is subdivided into the following
categories:
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Dialing and numbering plan issues for the mixed network33
— Local numbers
— National numbers
— International numbers
— Special numbers
•
Private address space — which is subdivided into the following
categories:
— Level 0 regional numbers (in CS 1000, these are known as
Coordinated Dialing Plan [CDP] numbers)
— Level 1 regional numbers (in CS 1000, these are known as Universal
Dialing Plan [UDP] numbers)
To be useful, a DN must be scoped within an appropriate address space.
One way of achieving this is by qualifying DNs.
Both CS 1000 and MCS 5100 systems have implemented a phone-context
parameter of the userinfo-field of the telephony-based SIP URI as a means
to fully qualify a DN.
•
A SIP URI with the user=phone-context parameter is known as
a telephony-based SIP URI. For more information, see Appendix
"Parameter configuration for a SIP URI" (page 103).
•
A SIP URI without the user=phone-context parameter is known as a
non-telephony-based SIP URI or a regular SIP URI.
The format of a telephony-based SIP URI is as follows:
sip:[directorynumber];phone-context=[phonecontext]@[domainame];
user=phone
sip:+[directorynumber]@[domainname];user=phone (for international
PSTN numbers)
The format of a regular SIP URI is as follows:
sip:[username]@[domainame]
ATTENTION
Rule 4: In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network, all DNs passed between the two
systems must be in the form of a telephony-based SIP URI.
If Rule 4 is not followed, a CDP DN may be incorrectly interpreted as a UDP
number or a public/local number as a UDP number.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
In accordance with the preceding Rule 4, non-telephony-based, or regular,
SIP URIs must not be passed between systems in a mixed CS 1000/MCS
5100 network.
There is one exception to this rule — regular SIP URIs can be passed
between systems in the Refer-to header.
Rule 5: In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network, for routing purposes, regular
SIP URIs can be passed between the two systems only within a Refer-to header.
The refer operation is not initiated by CS 1000 SIP Gateways. It is used by
the MCS 5100 in the following scenarios:
•
Call redirection (for example, a call transfer) initiated by the MCS 5100
— The SIP URI in the Refer-to header is analyzed only by the MCS
5100 system and has no impact on the CS 1000 system.
•
Click-to-Call operation of a CD user — The SIP URI in the Refer-to
header is analyzed by the CS 1000 system and has to be understood
by the system. Therefore, the Username field of the SIP URI must be
in the form of a DN.
ATTENTION
Rule 6: In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network with Converged Desktop users,
the CS 1000 SIP Gateway must support regular SIP URIs within the Refer-to
header.
If the Username field of the SIP URI is not in the form of a DN, the CS
1000 SIP Gateway handles the refer operation according to normal SIP
processing. In other words, it lets the MCS system route the call to the
destination indicated in the Refer-to header.
If the Username field of the SIP URI is in the form of a DN, the CS 1000
SIP Gateway configures NPI = Private and TON = CDP (the default settings;
the latter having the same effect as TON = Unknown). The CS 1000 SIP
Gateway then passes the processing of the refer operation to the CS 1000
Call Server.
Converged Desktop implications
The biggest impact of the adopted addressing scheme on the Converged
Desktop feature in a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network is on Click-to-Call.
With Click-to-Call, Converged Desktop users initiate a call using their
converged Multimedia PC Client user interface, but use their CS 1000 client
to conduct the voice conversation when in Converged Mode.
ATTENTION
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Dialing and numbering plan issues for the mixed network35
The converged Multimedia PC Client provides several ways for a user to
initiate Click-to-Call, including:
•
using the Directory window
•
using the Friends Online window
•
using the Call Logs window (Outbox and Inbox tabs)
•
using the Make a Call window (Dialpad, Recent, and Directory tabs)
These four user interfaces retrieve an address. The retrieved address has
several origins, including:
•
The address is an MCS 5100 username (as defined by an MCS 5100
administrator).
•
The address was delivered by an incoming call over a route.
•
The address was entered directly by the user (personal directory).
•
The address was entered by an MCS 5100 administrator or retrieved
from a directory (global directory).
It is very difficult for the CS 1000 system to route calls based on the
retrieved address alone. The address must be either:
•
explicitly qualified (in terms of phone-context) by the MCS 5100 system,
or
•
implicitly qualified (using a proper prefix) by the MCS 5100 system
Problematic Click-to-Call scenarios
Scenario 1:
Click-to-Call using an incoming call log when the call has come from a
routeIn this scenario, the calling party number stored in the call log must
be explicitly or implicitly qualified. The MCS 5100 system must store the
original phone-context in the call log.
Scenario 2:
Click-to-Call using a directory entry (Call at...)In this scenario, the
number stored in the directory entry must include the proper prefix.
The problem arises because directory entries are created by users
themselves (PA, Contact Info), MCS 5100 system administrators, or an
external Directory Service (such as the Nortel Global Directory). Directory
entries may not include the required access codes.
Users must be warned to ensure that all directory entries they intend to use
include correct access codes. An MCS 5100 or CD user may edit their
personal directory through the PA.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
The CS 1000 setup includes both a user setup and translation setup.
User setup
The CS 1000 user setup involves both the general user setup and the
Converged Desktop user setup.
General user setupThe general user setup applies to both stand-alone
and Converged Desktop users. The general user setup involves the
following:
•Configure the user’s extension as a 4-digit number.
For example: extension = 5573
•
Configure the 3-digit HLOC codes for user groups (that is, customers).
For example: HLOC = 334
•
The HLOC and user’s extension creates the user’s UDP number. The
number is unique within an Enterprise: HLOC + Extension.
For example: UDP Number = 3345573
•
Configure the Private Network Identifier (PNI) for user groups (that is,
customers).
For example: PNI = 00002
Mixed network example: UDP 39
•
PNI, HLOC, and the user’s extension create the Global user ID that is
globally unique: PNI + HLOC + Extension.
For example: Global ID: 000023345573
Converged Desktop user setupThe Converged Desktop user setup
involves the following:
•
Configure the user’s Class of Service (CLS) to include CDMO or CDMV.
•
Configure the Converged Desktop Service (CDS) parameters.
•
CS 1000 SIP Services use the user’s global ID within CD-related
signaling (for example: INVITE and NOTIFY).
Translation setup
The translation setup involves the following:
•
Configure CDP routing (Distant Steering Codes [DSC] and Local
Steering Codes [LSC]) (based on the 4-digit CDP numbers).
•
Configure UDP routing (AC2, HLOCs, and LOCs) (based on the 6 +
7-digit UDP number).
•
Configure PSTN routing (AC1, NXX, NPA,SPN, and so on) according to
the preceding access codes.
•
Configure the CS 1000 SIP Trunk Gateways at each site with appropriate
phone-context strings:
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
40 Examples of dialing and numbering plan configuration for mixed networks
— UDP phone-context
For example: phone-context="udp"
— CDP phone-context
For example: phone-context="cdp.udp"
— Public/Local phone-context
For example: phone-context="+1613"
— Public/National phone-context
For example: phone-context="+1"
MCS 5100 setup
The MCS 5100 setup involves includes both a user setup and translation
setup.
User setup
The MCS 5100 user setup involvesboth the general user setup, stand-alone
user setup, and the Converged Desktop user setup.
General user setupThe general user setup applies to both stand-alone
and Converged Desktop users. The general user setup involves the
following:
•
Configure the user’s username as an alphanumeric address.
For example: Username = asmith
•
Configure the user’s private charge ID as the UDP number.
For example: Private Charge ID = 3345573
Standalone user setupThe stand-alone user setup involvesthe following:
•
Do not include the CDS in the service package.
•
Configure the user’s alias as the Global ID.
For example: Alias = 000023345573
Note: The alias for a stand-alone user is unique to the Network Routing
Service (NRS) of the CS 1000 system. It cannot be a DN within any DN
range used in the CS 1000 NRS Level0 or Level1 Domain configuration.
Converged Desktop user setupThe Converged Desktop user setup
involves the following:
•
Include the CDS in the service package.
•
There is no need to define the user’s "regular" alias.
•
Configure the user’s CD alias as the Global ID:
For example: CD Alias = 000023345573
The number 6 is the access code configured for UDP calls as configured
on CS 1000. The configured values must match in both configurations.
Translation setup
The MCS 5100 translation setup includes pretranslation setup, private
telephony routes setup, and gateway telephony routes setup.
Pretranslation setupConfigure pretranslations to support CS
1000-to-MCS 5100 calls to do the following:
•
If the UDP number qualifier is received, insert 6.
For example, if number qualifier="udp", insert 6.
•
If the CDP number qualifier is received, insert 6 + HLOC.
For example, if number qualifier="cdp.udp", insert 6334.
•
If the Public/Local number qualifier is received, insert 9.
For example, if number qualifier="+1613", insert 9.
•
If the Public/National number qualifier is received, insert 91.
For example, if number qualifier="+1", insert 91.
•If the Public/International number is received, insert 9011.
For example, DN starts with a plus sign (+), insert 9011.
Private telephony routesConfigure private telephony routes to support
CS 1000-to-MCS 5100 calls and MCS 5100-to-MCS 5100 calls as follows:
•
Local termination using UDP dialing
(to/from digits 6 + HLOC, length 8, remove 1, prefix PNI)
For example: to/from digits 6334, length 8, remove 1, prefix 00002
•
Local termination for CDP dialing
(to/from digits LSC, length 4, remove 0, prefix PNI + HLOC)
For example: to/from digits 5, length 4, remove 0, prefix 00002334
Gateway telephony routesConfigure gateway telephony routes to
support MCS 5100-to-CS 1000 calls as follows:
•
Outgoing routes using UDP dialing
(to/from digits 6 + LOC, length 8, remove 1, use UDP number qualifier)
For example: to/from digits 6334, length 8, remove 1,
number qualifier="udp", Gateway Route Type = private
•
Outgoing routes using CDP dialing
(to/from digits DSC, length 4, remove 0, use CDP number qualifier)
For example: to/from digits 2 to 7, length 4, remove 0,
number qualifier="cdp.udp", Gateway Route Type = private
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
44 Examples of dialing and numbering plan configuration for mixed networks
Note: Although the network is CDP-only, some UDP configuration is
necessary to support MCS 5100 private charge ID, which is always
presented as a UDP number.
•
Configure the Private Network Identifier (PNI) for user groups (that is,
customers).
For example: PNI = 00002
•
PNI, HLOC, and the user’s extension create the Global user ID that is
globally unique: PNI + HLOC + Extension.
For example: Global ID: 000023435573
Converged Desktop user setupThe Converged Desktop user setup
involves the following:
•
Configure the user’s Class of Service (CLS) to include CDMO or CDMV.
•
Configure the Converged Desktop Service (CDS) parameters.
•
CS 1000 SIP Services use the user’s global ID within CD-related
signaling (for example: INVITE and NOTIFY).
Translation setup
The translation setup involves the following:
•
Configure CDP routing (Distant Steering Codes [DSC] and Local
Steering Codes [LSC]) based on the 5-digit CDP numbers.
•
Configure minimal UDP routing (AC2, HLOCs, and so on) to support
incoming calls using UDP numbers.
•
Configure PSTN routing (AC1, NXX, NPA,SPN, and so on) according to
the preceding access codes.
•
Configure the CS 1000 SIP Trunk Gateways at each site with appropriate
phone-context strings:
— CDP phone-context
For example: phone-context="cdp.udp"
— UDP phone-context
For example: phone-context="udp"
— Public/Local phone-context
For example: phone-context="+1613"
— Public/National phone-context
For example: phone-context="+1"
MCS 5100 setup
The MCS 5100 setup includes both a user setup and translation setup.

This section contains information about the following topics:
"Introduction" (page 47)
"Configuration notes" (page 47)
"Description of the network configured in this document" (page 48)
Introduction
In order to use SIP Converged Desktop Services, the SIP Trunk Gateway
must first be configured. See IP Peer Networking Installation andCommissioning (NN43001-313) for detailed instructions.
Configuration of SIP CDS on CS 1000 requires configuration on both the
Call Server and the Signaling Server. See "Configuring CS 1000" (page
49) for detailed instructions on configuring these elements.
47
SIP CDS must also be configured on MCS 5100. Refer to "Configuring
MCS 5100" (page 67) for detailed instructions.
Configuration notes
You must configure UDP/Home Location (HLOC) codes using an Access
Code (either AC 1 or AC2) and the ESN Data Block with Local Termination
Feature (LTER). You must also configure a Route List Block entry (RLI) to
delete the HLOC when the CS 1000 recognizes a user has dialed within
its own customer (Home Location) or when a converged MCS 5100 user is
dialing within the CS 1000 Home Location. This feature is needed for the
MCS 5100 PC Clients in a Click-to-Call call from a Friends list or call log.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Description of the network configured in this document
The user will encounter one of many CDS configuration situations. This
section describes the basic characteristics of the network to which the
configuration described in the rest of this document applies. The intent is
to provide a configuration example which the user can then adapt to their
particular situation.
The network configured in this document has the following characteristics:
•
The CS 1000 system is a CS 1000M system.
•
The NRS is used to route all Converged Desktop calls.
•The network supports both pure UDP and CDP calls dialing plans, as
seen from the users’ perspective.
•
The dialing range of MCS overlaps that of CS 1000 in a "split-range"
manner — half of the overlap is directed to the MCS side and the other
half is directed to the CS 1000 side. DSCs are used to direct the calls
accordingly.

ATTENTION
Before you begin configuring CDS on the CS 1000, you must have a
SIP Trunk Gateway configured. The SIP Trunk must have Insert ESN
Access Code (INAC) configured for incoming LOC calls. Refer to IP PeerNetworking Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313) for details.
Ensure that CDS calls are routed over the SIP Trunk Gateway that is
associated with the CDS application.

Configure the Signaling Server using
CS 1000 Element Manager
To configure SIP Converged Desktop Services using CS 1000 Element
Manager, follow the steps in Procedure 1 "Configuring SIP CDS on the
Signaling Server" (page 57).
Note: The SIP Trunk Gateway must be configured for SIP CDS. Refer
to IP Peer Networking Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-313)
for detailed instructions.

Enter the necessary information in the following fields:
a. Service Enabled: Select whether the Converged Desktop
Service application is enabled or disabled for this node. CDS is
enabled by default (the check box is selected).
Note: If CDS is not enabled, no calls are sent to the MCS
5100, including both originating and terminating calls either
to or from the Converged Desktop telephone.
b. Service DN used for making VTRK call from Agent: Enter the
Service DN. The Service DN is a number for CS 1000 to call the
Signaling Server CDS application over a SIP Virtual Trunk. This
number can be composed of:
•
LOC + extension
•
Extension
•
SPN
As described in "How Converged Desktop Services works"
(page 14), upon receipt of an incoming call notification over
the AML/VAS links, the CDS application must reserve a Virtual
Trunk until the destination of the call is determined. The CDS
application instructs the Call Server to make a call to this Service
DN. The Call Server’s numbering plan directs the call to the
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Virtual Trunk route based on translations. The CDS answers
and reserves the Virtual Trunk in case it is needed to terminate
the incoming call.
The example shown uses an SPN and is defined as follows:
Service DN = AC1 (from LD 86) + SPN (from LD 90)
For example, the value entered for the Service DN is 65100,
where 6 is Access Code 1 (AC1) (configured in LD 86 on "LD 86
Configure Access Code (AC1 or AC2)." (page 53)) and 5100
is the Special Number (SPN) (configured in LD 90 on "LD 90
Configure Service DN for Converged Desktop." (page 54)).
c. Converged Telephone Call Forward DN: This field is required if
the SIP Trunk Gateway application is enabled and the Converged
Desktop Service will be used. The Converged Telephone Call
Forward DN is the CDN defined in LD 23 for the CDS application.
This entry designates the CDN that CDS will acquire to obtain
messaging for call activity. CS 1000 telephones with CDMO
or CDMV Class of Service redirect all calls to the CDN. The
acquisition of the CDN identified in this field allows messaging
for call activity to be processed to the CDS Application on the
Signaling Server.
For example, the value entered is 5100, which is the Control
DN (CDN) configured in LD 23 on "LD 23 Configure Control
Directory Number (CDN)." (page 52).

If the string is missing the SIP Domain name (that is, the string
is sip:convergeddesktop@;nortelconverged=continueforce),
then the SIP Domain name was not configured during the SIP
Trunk Gateway configuration. The SIP Domain nameis found
under Signaling Server > Signaling Server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxProperties on the Edit web page (Figure 14 "Edit web page"

g. RAN route for Announce: Enter the Recorded Announcement
(RAN) route number for call announce. The route was configured
in LD 16. The range is 0 to 127 for Small Systems. The range
is 0 to 511 for Large Systems.
The RAN definition in this field can be used in two distinct ways:
•
Call progress – A customer may want to announce to a caller
that their call is proceeding and to please wait. RAN can be
used when delays may be longer than expected, as PCA
makes calls to other devices. If RAN is not used, callers will
hear only ringback tone.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
PCA busy – If PCA agents are busy processing a call and the
caller must wait for a PCA so CDS can process the call, the

user can be directed to RAN. The RAN typically will say, for
example, "Your call is proceeding, please wait..."
h. Wait time before a caller is sent to RAN Queue: Enter the time
(in seconds) that the caller waits before the called is directed to
the RAN queue. The range is -1 to +32767 seconds, where:
ValueMeaning

+1 to
+32767
Never send to RAN queue. This is the default.
Immediately send to RAN queue.
Wait n seconds before sending to RAN queue.
i.Timeout for Ringing indication of the CD set: Enter the time to
wait for ringing indication on the Converged Desktop telephone.
If a timeout occurs, the system considers the telephone as busy
or call-forwarded to other devices. As a result, the Converged
Desktop call is canceled. The timeout range is 5 to 60 seconds
(default is 10 seconds).
j.Timeout for CD Server: Enter a timeout value. This value is
used when the MCS 5100 is not available or there are network
problems. An incoming Converged Desktop call is terminated
directly to Converged Desktop telephone without waiting for the
MCS 5100. The timeout range is 1 to 30 seconds (default is 5
seconds).
Note: Nortel recommends that the timeout value not be
configured as a small value. If the time is too short, then a
delayed packet can eventually reach the MCS 5100. This
can cause a "race condition" between the MCS 5100 routing
the call and the CS 1000 routing the call. If the administrator
knows of a persistent network problem, or if the MCS 5100 is
out-of-service for a period of time, then Nortel recommends
that the Converged Desktop Service be disabled instead of
having a small timeout value.
k. Timeout for call answered by other than CD phone set: Enter

a timeout value. If a call is answered on any telephone (within
the CS 1000 network) other than Converged Desktop telephone
itself, then the SIP session is torn down automatically after this
timeout. The purpose is to remove"lone" screen pop-ups on the
Converged Desktop PC Client (PCC). The timeout range is 2 to

Introduction
In a mixed CS 1000/MCS 5100 network, the following is expected to occur:
87
•
The CS 1000 SIP Redirect Server routes calls to SIP endpoints
(gateways and SIP lines) under CS 1000 control.
•
The MCS 5100 routes calls to SIP endpoints (gateways and SIP clients)
under MCS 5100 control.
Note: In the context of SIP, the usage of the phrase "endpoint under
XXX control" indicates that entity XXX is the only entity that knows the
contact information for the endpoint.
Provisioning is impacted in the following manner:
•The CS 1000 SIP Redirect Server represents all CS 1000 endpoints in
the MCS 5100 provisioning.
•
The MCS 5100 Session Manager represents all MCS 5100 endpoints in
the CS 1000 provisioning.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
This network configuration requires the CS 1000 SIP Redirect Server and
MCS 5100 to interwork seamlessly. Therefore, this section describes the
basics of the redirect server logic.
Operation
Note: Some values in these instructions are taken from the example
numbering plans described "Examples of dialing and numbering plan
configuration for mixed networks" (page 37). Note that actual values
may differ between applications.
Domains
The following domains are created in the CS 1000 NRS.
•Service Domain = mydomain.com (see Figure 36 "Service Domain"

purposes of this discussion)
This section contains CS 1000 Command Line Interface (CLI) commands
that can be used with CDS. The CS 1000 CLI commands are used from the
Signaling Server CLI.
This section also contains a diagnostic tool available on MCS 5100 for
verifying translations.
99
CS 1000 CLI commands
The CS 1000 Signaling Server provides a Command Line Interface (CLI)
through a serial port or a Telnet session. This section contains the CLI
commands available at that interface that are applicable to CDS.
Signaling Server CLI commands are available at three levels:
•
Level One — Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM)
shell for basic technician support and general status system checking
(oam>prompt)
•LevelTwo — ProblemDetermination Tool (PDT) shell for expert support;
also includes all Level One (OAM) commands (pdt>prompt)
•
Level Three — Nortel proprietary vxWorksª shell for advanced
debugging and design support (prompt)
Note: This section describes the Level One (OAM) and Level Two
(PDT) CLI commands. Level Three commands are considered expert
support and design level commands, and are not documented here.
Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
You must log in to the Signaling Server to use the CLI commands. Refer
to Signaling Server Installation and Commissioning (NN43001-312) for
this procedure.

Communication Server 1000 to MCS 5100 Converged Desktop Type 2 Configuration Guide
Note: This command prints the AML messages to/from the
Call Server at the transport layer. Because sending and
receiving AML messages is based on each AML link instead
of each DN or TN, no good solution exists for filtering on
this AML trace tool. Nortel recommends that tracing not be
turned on in a busy system. Instead, Nortel recommends
the use of the cdsCallTrace tool or vtrkCallTrace tool.
