IP Office not sending PAI over SIP trunk to Cisco UCM

[flemig]

Hey guys. I have a SIP trunk between a Cisco UCM cluster and an Avaya IP Office 500 system.

Everything works great except when calling from the Cisco phones to the Avaya phones, the called party name (destination name) does not show up on the Cisco phone. When calling from Avaya to the Cisco phones, the Avaya phone shows the name of the person you are calling. This is done via the P-Asserted-Identity header which is being passed from the Cisco UCM to the Avaya system and being displayed on the Avaya phones. (As far as I am aware, at least).

I cannot figure out how to get the Avaya system to send the PAI header over the SIP trunk for inbound calls. Can anyone please help me out. Below are two snippets of SIP traces from either system for inbound calls.

Calling from Avaya to Cisco UCM (Inbound to Cisco, Cisco replies with PAI in 180):

SIP/2.0 180 Ringing
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.2.10.189:56082;rport;branch=z9hG4bKPj3SuuV7rduceI20EeEbCRnkr4LXpd5mjI

(That P-Asserted-Identity field, "UserX" is what gets displayed on the Avaya phone when calling out to Cisco).

Calling from Cisco UCM to Avaya (Inbound to Avaya, no PAI info):

(No PAI field information. No Called Name party display on the Cisco phones).

Please help! Thank you..

Greetings to All,

I'm having the same issue. I can establish calls between an Avaya IP Office and a Cisco CME, the only problem being is that when the Cisco side call they are getting a display of QSIG-GATEWAY on their phones.


I'm being told that I need to have Send Caller ID set to P Asserted ID which I have but the problem still continues.

Can some please shed some light on the subject.


Thanks in advance

Good afternoon Flemig,

What settings do you have your "Call Routing Method" & "send Caller ID" set to?

Thanks

[markgallagher]

In the SIP URI you can define what information the IP Office should use for the PAI - including not using PAI (the default).

[rmcdou]

Thanks for your reply.

Looking at the SIP URI under the SIP line I see:
Local URI *
Contact*
Display Name*
PAI Use Internal Data

Please advise.

Regards

[pitcherj]

If you have PAI set to "Use Internal Data", I believe it will use what is set in the user SIP field. If there is nothing set there then ..... Try changing it from "Use Internal Data".

Thanks for your input.

[markgallagher]

Is that "Thanks, I'll check" or "Thanks, that fixed it"?

[rmcdou]

Sorry about that. That is thanks I'll check. Well, I've checked and and changed but it's a no go. We are working to see if can make it work by using Transparent Tunneling of QSIG on the CUCME, added a couple of lines to the dial peer configuration.

Waiting on sytem reboot on our side since we can't bring down the IPO during normal business hours.

Avaya ip office 500 and Cisco CME

Hi Flemig, could you send send the document how to configure H.323 trunk between Cisco CME and Avaya ip office 500. We need call between them in local extension.

Greetings,

I have not found a document for the CME but I used this one.http://www.microlana.ru/sites/defaul...aya/ipo-cm.pdf

I'm running into an issue where on the Cisco side they get an asterisk on calls from the IPO, but caller ID receives fine on the IPO from the Cisco. I just set PAI to Use Internal Data, but after reading this not optimistic that will work. I had * in there before so it made sense if that's what the Cisco received. I'd be curious as to how you made out with this and what your solution was.
