Chapter 1: Overview

What is Tenor® Call Relay 60?

The Call Relay 60 Session Border Controller is a stand-alone unit which acts as an inter-domain VoIP portal used to directly connect (over IP) one or more VoIP networks, supporting up to 60 simultaneous calls between networks. Call Relay 60 provides a single point for call control manage ment, administrative services, call accounting, and security. All calls are switched through multiple IP networks with just one single compression and decompression of the voice.
The unit connects with the IP network via 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection; calls are transmitted through the Ethernet LAN and routed over the corporate WAN or internet. It routes the call accord ing to the parameters or defaults you have configured in the routing database.
Call Relay 60 features NATAccess, an intelligent network address translation technology. This enables a VoIP network with multiple H.323/SIP endpoints to operate behind firewalls equipped with Network Access Translation (NAT). NATAccess solves the problems commonly experienced when using H.323/SIP devices behind firewalls; it eliminates the need to place these endpoints in the “DMZ” or public IP domain, or to open the firewall to the point where serious security concerns are raised. Call Relay 60 enables enterprises to expand their VoIP networks to home offices, branch offices, customers, partners, and across the public Internet.

NATAccess/Remote NAT support

NATAccess is an intelligent network address translation technology. It enables H.323-based and/ or SIP based VoIP networks to operate behind firewalls equipped with Network Access Translation (NAT); this provides maximum network security. NATAccess simplifies deployment and installation by eliminating the need to place the Call Relay 60 on a public IP network. Using NATAccess pro

The Remote NAT feature enables Tenors with SIP applications to be used in an environment where endpoints are behind NAT firewalls. As long as a Call Relay 60 is placed in the public IP domain, it can communicate transparently with any VoIP endpoint (even from other vendors) that is located behind a NAT firewall. In the case of a NAT firewall application, the actual IP address and port number that the call comes from is the public (WAN) IP address of the NAT/firewall/router.

Remove Unnecessary Call Delay

Since redundant decompression and re-compressions processes are eliminated as a result of Call Relay 60 (linking two VoIP networks via PSTN gateways is not required); this improves voice qual
ity by removing unnecessary delay, latency, and distortion.

Voice Control Management

H.323 Gatekeeper

The Call Relay 60 complies with the H.323 industry specifications for voice control and manage­ment. It performs IP call routing functions (for calls entering and exiting a site). The Gatekeeper (internal to a Call Relay 60) collects, manages, and distributes call routing information. The Border Element (internal to the Call Relay 60) provides access into or out of an administrative domain. Other H.323 endpoints, such as gateways, can register to the internal Gatekeeper.

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)

SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is a signaling protocol used to establish a session on an IP network for voice control and management; it is a request-response protocol that closely resembles Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which forms the basis of the World Wide Web. SIP re-uses many of the constructs and concepts of Internet protocols such as HTTP and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The purpose of SIP is only to establish/change/terminate sessions. SIP is not concerned with the content or details of the session.
SIP is Transport layer-independent, which means it can be used with any transport protocol: UDP, TCP, ATM, etc. It is text-based, so it requires no encoding/decoding like H.323. And SIP supports user mobility, using proxies and redirecting requests to your current location.
When configured for SIP the Call Relay 60 will act as a SIP User Agent (Endpoint) as defined in IETF RFC3261. Multiple user agents allow for separate agents to be allocated to each SIP call. It will be able to direct calls to and from the IP network, and Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) such
P/N 480-0076-00-00 1-5

Chapter 1: Overview
as phones, PBX's, and FAX machines, or the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). The Call Relay 60 SIP User Agent will work in conjunction with an external SIP proxy or redirect server to
route and connect calls over SIP based networks.
There are three basic components of SIP:
1. User Agent (Endpoint)
client element, initiates calls
server element, answers calls
2. Network Server (Proxy Server or Redirect Server)
name resolution
user location
redirect and forking
3. Registrar
Stores registration information in a location service using a non-SIP protocol.

H.323/SIP Signaling Translation

Through the Call Relay 60, there are two signaling options provided: H.323/SIP Signaling Transla­tion and Signaling Gateway with Direct Media Connection. See below for a description of each.
H.323/SIP Signaling Translation. This enables the signaling and media (voice) to be sent from the network (whether H.323 or SIP based) to the Call Relay 60 and out to another network (whether H323 or SIP-based). The signaling is translated (from H.323 to SIP or vice versa) if necessary; this simplifies inter-networking between diverse VoIP networks.

tion and termination networks directly, rather than having it run out of the origination network, through the Call Relay 60 and back out to the destination network.
In this mode, the Call Relay 60 can support up to a maximum of 90 simultaneous calls when used as an H.323 signaling gateway (this mode of operation is known as the “Gatekeeper Routed Call Mode”); endpoints can register to the Call Relay 60’s gatekeeper.

Provides Load Balancing

Using multiple Call Relay 60 units provides a way for load balancing. For example, one unit can be used as a primary portal and another as a secondary portal. You can divide the calls between portals or simply use one as a backup. In the event of an IP link failure, the redundancy offers maximum reliability.

SNMP Support

The Call Relay 60 supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the standard protocol used to exchange network information between different types of networks. The Call Relay 60 acts as an SNMP agent to receive commands and issue responses to the network manager. The network manager will then be able to perform certain functions, such as generating and sending traps.

Call Relay 60 communication

The Call Relay 60 provides a single IP address for accessing the public IP network.

Easy Connect to Console

Plugging a DB-9 cable provided by Quintum between a PC and the unit’s asynchronous RS-232 port will connect the unit and get you up and running. Through this port, you are able to configure an IP address for the Call Relay 60 portal.

Capabilities

Single Point of Network Interconnection

The Call Relay 60 aggregates all the traffic from the various IP endpoints and gateways within the network and passes it to an endpoint at the “edge” of the another network, such as another Call
Relay 60 unit, IP phone or gateway. See
Figure 1-8.

In each case, the Call Relay 60 provides a single IP address for entry to the complete network and provides isolation between the networks in such a way that the internal structure of each remains anonymous to the other. All voice calls and inter-network management function, including call man agement, administration, and call accounting, to pass over the single inter-network IP connection. A complete Call Detail Record (CDR) is generated by every call passing through the Call Relay 60 in each direction. This simplifies the process of cross billing between customers. Each partner can compile data on traffic entering and exiting their network; they are then able to generate and audit inter-company billing.
A innovative method of linking VoIP networks is to use the Call Relay 60 approach to interconnect the networks and perform call management. This also takes advantage of the Packet Saver feature, which minimizes bandwidth usage.

Chapter 1: Overview

PacketSaver

PacketSaver packet multiplexing technology reduces the amount of IP bandwidth required to sup­port multiple calls flowing between two networks. PacketSaver minimizes bandwidth usage by aggregating samples from multiple VoIP conversations and packing them into a larger IP packet with a single IP header. The process removes the need to send a bulky IP header with individual voice samples. As a result, it eliminates the transmission of redundant information.

Call Detail Recording

Through the Call Detail Recording (CDR) feature, the Call Relay 60 is able to generate a CDR at the completion of each call. A CDR is a string of ASCII data which contains call information such as call date and time, call length, calling party and called party. From this information you can capture billing type data, which can be used to create billing reports.

Tenor Monitor

The Tenor Monitor enables you to view alarms for all Tenor units, as well as Call Event Records, and Call Detail Records. There are three main functions of the Tenor Monitor:
Alarm Monitor. Through the Alarm Monitor, you are able to view alarms for a specified IP address, as well as display active alarms, alarm history, and deleted alarms. You can configure a database table for the specific unit in which you would like to monitor alarms.
Call Monitor. Through the Call Monitor, you are able to view call events for each call passing through the Tenor, including call type, duration, call state, etc. The Call Monitor continuously collects active, real-time call event data and displays it on the screen. You are able to select/ edit/delete a Tenor to a database table for the specific unit in which you would like to view call events.
Call Detail Record (CDR) Monitor. Through the CDR Monitor, you are able to view the Call Detail Record for each call, including the call connect/disconnect times, call path, and autoswitch information.
Through the Tenor Monitor, you can view real-time data for up to three Tenors at the same time. The Tenor Monitor can collect up to 500,000 CDR/Call Event Records per day.
View call monitoring information as follows:
NOTE: Ensure the software is installed and running.

routing information. In addition, you are also able to monitor system alarms and run diagnostic pro­cedures. CLI attributes enable you to further configure CLI options; these provide additional config­uration items according to the option type.
Through the CLI, there are also commands you execute to simplify the process of configuring and monitoring the Call Relay 60 unit. Some of these commands are globally used, others are specific to the mode in which you are working. For example, the set command, available globally from within the Configuration mode, enables you to set attributes for different options.
You can access the CLI through a Telnet session, a terminal-like access to any Call Relay 60 unit. If your PC is directly connected to the Call Relay 60 unit, you can configure the unit directly through the serial port using HyperTerminal. Both methods are described below.
NOTE: Alternatively, you may want to use other telnet clients, such as the Linux telnet client or
free programs like Putty. If you choose to do so, you may have to make minor setting changes in the Telnet client in order to make it function properly.
Telnet Connection. Once the Call Relay 60 has been initially configured with an IP address net- work and is connected, the easiest way to connect to the unit and use the CLI is through a standard Telnet session from any PC on your IP network. Connect to a Call Relay 60 unit via Telnet as fol

Monitor Alarms

Alarms are brief text messages that appear on your workstation when the Call Relay 60 unit encoun­ters a problem, such as a failed interface, disconnected call, etc. You can reach the Alarm Manager via Command Line Interface (CLI) alarm monitoring system.

How to Read Alarms

The Alarm Manager reports alarms according to criteria such as the alarm’s severity level, type, description, etc. There are two alarm types displayed: Active Alarms and Alarm History. An Active Alarm list displays all the alarms still active on the system; these alarms have not been cleared or deleted. An Alarm History is a list of the last 100 alarms stored in the system since the last time you performed a delete operation.
Definitions for all generated alarm fields appear in Table 5-1.

Chapter 6: Diagnostics/Maintenance

Before you Begin

Before you begin troubleshooting a potential malfunction, it is a good idea to check your basic hard­ware connections. See below.
Ensure power cord is firmly installed in the back panel’s power jack and the other end is plugged into the AC power source.
Ensure the unit’s power switch is in the On position. If the unit is not working, toggle the power switch to reset the system. If the unit is reset, the settings you configured may be lost.
Verify that all RJ-45 and DB-9 cables fit snugly in each front panel jack. Faulty connections may cause a number of network interfacing or connection issues.
If you suspect the problem to be on the network end, contact your Central Office to verify proper operation.

Monitor LEDs

LEDs monitor the health of the system; they are the first signal that the unit is not working properly or that an internal or external error has occurred. LEDs appear on the front of the unit (LED descrip tions are detailed in Chapter 2: Hardware Components).
Check Chapter 2: Hardware Components to ensure the correct lighting of each LED and then see
Common Symptoms/Problems for troubleshooting information. If the LEDs are not lighting at all,
check the AC power source to ensure power is being supplied to the unit.

Canadian Notice

The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operation, and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the users' satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local Telecommunications Company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the inside wiring associated with a single-line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, tele­phone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make electrical ground connections by themselves, but should
contact the appropriate inspection authority or an electrician, as appropriate.
