1. Introduction

This document is intended for Nexmo SIP trunk customer’s technical staff and Value Added Retailer (VAR) having installation and operational responsibilities. This configuration guide provides steps for configuring Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Cisco UCM) 11.5.1.12900-21 and Cisco Unified Boarder Element (Cisco UBE) 16.05.01b to Nexmo SIP Trunking services.

2. SIP Trunking Network Components

The network for the SIP trunk reference configuration is illustrated below and is representative of a Cisco UCM and Cisco UBE configuration to Nexmo SIP trunking.

2.1 Hardware Components

  • Cisco UCS-C240-M3S VMWare host running ESXi 5.5.0 Standard
  • Cisco ISR4321/K9 router as CUBE
  • Cisco ISR4321/K9 (1RU) processor with 1684579K/6147K bytes of memory with 3 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
  • Processor board ID FLM1925W0X
  • IP Phones 7942(SCCP), 7841(SIP)

2.2 Software Requirements

  • Cisco Unified Communications Manager 11.5.1.12900-
  • Cisco Unity Connection 11.5.1.12900-
  • IOS 16.05.01b for ISR4321/K9 Cisco Unified Border Element
  • Cisco IOS Software [Everest], ISR Software (X86_64_LINUX_IOSD-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 16.5.1b, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
  • Cisco IOS XE Software, Version 16.05.01b

3. Features

3.1.1 Features Supported

  • Incoming and outgoing off-net calls using G711ULAW & G711ALAW voice codecs
  • Calling Line (number) Identification Presentation
  • Calling Line (number) Identification Restriction
  • Call hold and resume
  • Call transfer (unattended and attended )
  • Call Conference
  • Call forward (all, no answer)
  • DTMF relay both directions (RFC2833)
  • Media flow-through on Cisco UBE

3.1.2 Features Not Supported by PBX

  • None

3.1.3 Caveats and Limitations

  • Caller ID is not updated after attended or semi-attended transfers to off-net phones. This is due to a limitation on Cisco UBE. The issue does not impact the calls.

4. Configuration.

4.1 IP Address Worksheet

The specific values listed in the table below and in subsequent sections are used in the lab configuration described in this document, and are for illustrative purposes only. The customer must obtain and use the values for your deployment.

Component Lab Value Customer Value
Cisco UBE
LAN IP Address 10.80.11.15
LAN Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
WAN IP Address 192.65.79.XXX
WAN Subnet Mask 255.255.255.128
Cisco UCM IP PBX
System IP Address 10.80.11.2

4.2 Configuring Cisco Unified Communications Manager

4.2.1 Cisco UC Version

4.2.2 Cisco Unified Call Manager Service Parameters.

Navigation: System → Service Parameters

  1. Select Server : clus21pub--CUCM Voice/Video (Active)
  2. Select Service : Cisco Call Manager (Active)
  3. All other fields are set to default values

4.2.3 Off-Net Calls via Nexmo SIP Trunk

Off-net calls are served by SIP trunks configured between Cisco UCM and Nexmo Network and calls are routed via Cisco UBE. From Cisco UBE, we have pointed the trunk to sip.nexmo.com and opened the firewall for the list of IP addresses in the portal provided by Nexmo.

4.2.3.1 SIP Trunk Security Profile

Navigation: System → Security → SIP Trunk Security Profile

  1. Set Name : Non Secure SIP Trunk Profile is used as an example
  2. Set Outgoing Transport Type : UDP in this example
  3. SIP trunks to Nexmo should use UDP as a transport protocol for SIP. This is configured using SIP Trunk Security profile, which is later assigned to the SIP trunk itself.

4.2.3.2 SIP Profile Configuration

Navigation: Device → Device Settings → SIP Profile

Set Name : Standard SIP Profile is used as an example

4.2.3.3 SIP Trunk Configuration

Create SIP trunk to Cisco UBE

Navigation : Device → Trunk

4.2.4 Dial Plan

Navigation : Call Routing → Route/Hunt → Route Pattern

Route patterns are configured as below:

  Cisco IP phone dial "8"+11 digit number to access PSTN via Cisco UBE. "8" is removed before sending to Cisco UBE.

4.3 Configuring Cisco Unified Border Element

4.3.1 Network Interface

Configure Ethernet IP address and sub interface. The IP address and VLAN encapsulation used are for illustration only, the actual IP address can vary. For SIP trunks two IP addresses must be configured—LAN and WAN.

interface GigabitEthernet0/0/
ip address 192.65.79.XXX 255.255.255.
negotiation auto
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/
ip address 10.80.11.15 255.255.255.
negotiation auto

4.3.2 Global Cisco UBE Settings

In order to enable Cisco UBE IP2IP gateway functionality, enter the following:

voice service voip
ip address trusted list
ipv4 173.193.199.
ipv4 174.37.245.
ipv4 5.10.112.

4.3.3 Codecs

G711ulaw and G711alaw voice codecs are used for this testing. Codec preferences used to change according to the test plan description

voice class codec 1
codec preference 1 g711ulaw
codec preference 2 g711alaw

4.3.4 Dial Peer.

Cisco UBE uses dial-peer to route the call based on the digit to route the call accordingly.
