10.3 - An Overview of Features

The following features were added to IMG 10.3 CI release.

SIP

The IMG 10.3 supports SIP as a User Agent. The IMG will be able to register with a proxy, but will disallow incoming registration requests.

The IMG supports the following SIP functionality:

  • SIP to H.323 Interworking

  • SIP to ISDN Interworking

  • SIP to SS7 Interworking

  • SIP-T

  • DNS Lookups

  • UDP or TCP (single or multi-socket)

See IMG 1010 - SIP

ISDN

The following are supported for ISDN:

  • NFAS is supported on the  28 bearer spans and 4 signaling spans

  • Secondary D-channel

  • Interworking with SIP and H.323

  • Maximum support of 32 D-channels

See IMG 1010 - Overview of ISDN

DS3

A DS3 has a bandwidth of 44.736 Mbps, which is the capacity of 28 T1 spans. Every 85th bit in a DS3 bit sequence is used for overhead functions such as frame alignment, error detection, and terminal-to-terminal data communication. All other bits are payload bits.

The DS3 uses the M-Frame format and supports the following framing modes:

  • M13

  • C-bit (default)

The DS3 signal format typically transports 672 channels at 64 Kbps per channel. The DS3 signaling interface is bipolar with Bit 3 Zero Substitution (B3ZS).

Routing Enhancements

  • Time of Day Routing - See IMG 1010 - Configuring Time of Day Routing

  • The IMG supports up to 64 total Route/Cause Code/Service Routing Tables per EMS. That is the maximum amount of Route/Cause Code/Service Routing Tables that ClientView can create. Each of these tables can support up to a total of 5000 entries. The IMG however cannot support 64 routing tables if each table has 5000 entries. Memory constraints allow for a maximum of 20 Route/Cause Code/Service Routing Tables if there are 5000 entries per table.

  • Each IMG supports 4 route tables unique to the system, allowing the GateControl EMS to control, monitor, and maintain 250 discrete gateways.

  • Route tables can be specific to a particular gateway, or they can be global.

  • Route verification See IMG 1010 - Validating Your Configuration

  • Import either an Excel® spreadsheet or CSV for routing and translation tables

  • Route from one route table to another with the ability to prevent looping.

  • Configure the IMG to accept calls from multiple gateways with one External Gateway Entry (Gateway Mask field).

Excel RADIUS Format

The IMG uses Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) protocol for streaming the Call Detail Records (CDR). The implementation is compliant with RFC 2865 and RFC 2866. The RADIUS messages are sent to external RADIUS servers. The IMG now supports an Excel RADIUS format, which includes some attributes defined by RFC 2865 and RFC 2865, as well as Excel Vendor Specific Attributes (VSA).

See IMG 1010 - RADIUS - Overview 

Note: In software build 10.5.3 the word excel and/or cantata in each of the Vendor Specific Attributres (VSA) has been replaced with the word Dialogic. All VSA names prior to software 10.5.3 will have either excel or cantata in the name and all VSAs from software 10.5.3 and beyond will have dialogic in the name.

ClientView GUI Enhancements

  • Configuration Validation Report
    Use the Validation Report utility to confirm that your configuration does not contain any errors that may prohibit proper operation. Analyze the report for possible errors found and modify your configuration accordingly.

See IMG 1010 - Validating Your Configuration

  • External Gateway pane/Gateway Mask
    Added a Gateway Mask field to the External Gateway pane to allow you to configure the IMG to accept calls from multiple gateways.

Licensing

  • TDM spans now include signaling spans: 24 E1/32 T1 in 96 port increments

  • ISDN B Channels are licensed in 24 or 32 span groups

  • SIP is licensed in 32 span increments. If there are 2 modules configured, the license is shared between them.

Downloading Raw API file to IMG

You can now download a raw API file to the IMG and have it become part of the config file. See IMG 1010 - Downloading a Raw File.

Ethernet Port Configuration

The IMG defaults to 10/100 Mbps with Auto-negotiation. For each port, you can change the setting to Full Duplex.

See IMG 1010 - Physical Port Configuration
