CUCM to IPIPGW to H323 SP

Posted in Cisco on February 4th, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

Hard to tell exactly without the protocol debugs, but cause 47 is a codec problem typically. I would try adding a voice class codec to dial peer 22 with some more codec options to see if that helps. g729r8 is the default.

R/S + Optical site survey

Posted in Cisco on February 4th, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

Hello Experts!

I am trying to perform 12 site surveys for deploying Routers and Switches as a first task at my new job. I’ve done the wireless site surveys in the past and there are tons of documents on how to do them exactly, but there is nothing for R/S site survey. Other then obvious: power, cooling, air flow, available rack space, ease of access, cabling and wire minding is there anything else I should be looking at? I am more concerned with routers and switches that have optical cards in them. Are there specific requirements for these types of devices to be deployed in Data Centers?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, T.

Debugging (apparently) random retain loop bug (NSArrayController)

Posted in Apple on February 4th, 2010 by Saba – 6 Comments

Hello,

For several months now I’ve been trying to track down a particular bug that can cause a crash in my app, and finally I figured I would cry for help in case there is anything obvious that I can try that I’m not already trying. Here’s the situation:

Occasionally, if you close a document (NSDocument subclass) in my app and then open another document (or reopen the same document), the app crashes. I’ve debugged this to the extent that I now know the cause, at least. What is happening is that sometimes when a document gets closed, a particular NSArrayController subclass instance isn’t getting deallocated – but only sometimes. Then, when another document gets loaded, one of the notifications it sends out is picked up by the array controller still in memory which was registered as an observer for that particular notification; the array controller then tries to call out to other parts of its associated document – but of course they no longer exist, and neither should it, so it crashes.

The array controller in question is stored (and instantiated) in the main document .nib (the one named MyDocument.nib by default in new Xcode projects). File’s owner is a subclass of NSWindowController. I am aware of certain retain-loop issues with NSArrayController that have been improved since Tiger but are still not 100% fixed to the best of my knowledge, so I’m careful to work around them by not hooking up the content in IB – instead I set and remove content in code.

So, I know the cause of the crash and I know exactly which class isn’t getting deallocated; I even have some ideas about how I might approach fixing it. The problem is that it is so random, and doesn’t happen very often (then again, sometimes it happens more often than others), so implementing any potential fixes will really be like stabbing in the dark as testing will be impossible. My app is fairly complex so I figured I may need to go through and try doing lots of different things – that is, trying one feature, then closing and reopening a project, then trying another feature and closing and reopening again, and on and on, so that I could narrow down what affected it; the thinking being that there must be one particular thing causing the retain loop. But I just made it crash, launched my app again and then followed the exact same steps – and the array controller deallocated fine the second time around.

So my question is, what is the best approach to track down tricky, elusive memory bugs like this? I already have NSDebugEnabled, NSZombieEnabled, MallocStackLogging and MallocStackLoggingNoCompact set to YES in the arguments pane of my executable’s properties. They helped me find out where the crash was happening but not how or where my array controller is being retained.

Has anybody got any good advice (or links to good advice) on how to track down something like this? At the moment I’m stumped because I can’t seem to make it reproduceable every time.

Many thanks and all the best, Keith

Thanks, ‘progress_ind setup enable 3′ was the fix on the voip dial-peer.

Please, do not respond to that user’s email.

If you feel you need to respond, I’d suggest contacting DropBox and complaining, LOUDLY, about their users spamming lists in order to gain more users (and whatever affiliate program they may have in place)

I just changed a 2821 voice gateway from MGCP to H.323 with CUCM 6.1. After the conversion, all inbound and outbound calls work fine. The only noticeable difference is that the inbound caller does not hear ringback on the first ring. So if the IP Phone user answers the call on the first ring, the inbound PSTN caller just hears the user answer and doesn’t hear ringback. Not the end of the world, but I’m wondering if there is a dial-peer or voice-port setting to adjust this behavior?

2821 is running 12.4(15)T7 with PRI connection to PSTN. Standard pots and voip dialpeers:

dial-peer voice 1 pots incoming called-number [0-8]… direct-inward-dial port 0/0/0:23 !

dial-peer voice 1000 voip destination-pattern [0-8]… voice-class h323 1 session target ipv4:10.128.110.11 dtmf-relay h245-alphanumeric codec g711alaw no vad

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Brian

CUCM to IPIPGW to H323 SP

Posted in Cisco on February 4th, 2010 by Saba – Be the first to comment

Dear all,

I have a setup where I’m connecting my CUCMBE to IPIPGW which connects to my H323 voip provider. Now, I can make calls successfully to the voip provider network when my phones are in fall-back mode, but cannot when they are registered with CUCM.

When I place a call from a phone registered to CUCM, the Called number flashes while the Calling number gives a re-order tone.

Find below my configs and debug voice ccapi inout output:
