Answer

Enable Heartbeat on the physical switch

Question 12

An administrator needs to ensure that internal calls between two sites are routed over an MTP-required SIP trunk, but the calls are failing due to codec mismatch. Which CUCM service parameter setting should be verified to allow the MTP to be inserted?

Accepted Answer

Check the MTP Required checkbox on the SIP trunk configuration and ensure the MRGL includes an MTP resource.. The 'MTP Required' checkbox on the SIP Trunk configuration page must be checked, and the Media Resource Group List (MRGL) must contain an MTP resource associated with the device pool.

Answer

Increase the 'Maximum Number of MTP Resources' in the Service Parameters.

Answer

Change the SIP Trunk Security Profile to 'Non-Secure' to bypass encryption negotiation.

Answer

Modify the Region settings to force G.711 codec between the two sites.

Question 13

A user reports that calls to an external PSTN number are failing. The trace shows a '403 Forbidden' response from the provider. Where in CUCM should the administrator investigate the outbound calling search space (CSS) settings?

Accepted Answer

Question 15

A user reports that their calls are failing when they roam to a different physical office site. You observe that the device is registered to the primary CUCM cluster but the Location-based CAC is blocking the call. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The device is not assigned to a Device Pool with the correct Location configured for the new site.. If a device roams, it may inherit a different Location assigned via the Device Pool. If the bandwidth limit between the new location and the destination is exceeded, the call will be rejected.

Answer

The Region setting in the Device Pool has a lower bitrate than the required codec.

Answer

The device must be re-registered to a local subscriber instead of the primary cluster.

Answer

The Calling Search Space is not configured to allow inter-site dialing.

Question 16

You are troubleshooting a scenario where internal calls between two offices are using the G.711 codec, but you want them to use G.729 to save bandwidth. Where should you change the codec setting?
