[cisco-nas] RE: Cisco H.323 standard compliant or not

[Najeeb Haddad]

ah, that is true (missed that case). Could you provide details on IOS
releases they using and debug traces for ISDN plus gateway configuration?
Also are these DID or no DID calls?

Thanks.

I can agree with you when en-block is used, but when overlap is used Setup
ACK must be used. The issue that we find is with overlap scenario

H.323 Recomendation v4 quotes:

8.1.12	Overlapped sending

If a remote entity receives a Setup message with an incomplete address and
the canOverlapSend field set to TRUE, it should initiate overlap sending
procedures by returning the Setup Acknowledge message. Additional addressing
information should be sent using Information messages

H.323 Recomendation v5 quotes:

7.3.11 Setup Acknowledge
This message may be sent by an H.323 entity. However, it may be forwarded
from the network via a gateway. Processing on receipt is optional, but an
entity that indicates canOverlapSend in Setup shall support Setup
Acknowledge.

Bestr regards,
Tomaz

Based on H.323 standard (check H.225) SETUP ACK is an OPTIONAL message for
both transmit and receive. I attached the spec for you in a separate email
so you can check Table 4 (H.225 Usage of Q931 messages).

Hi all,
We have been discoverd with testing with 3rd PTY VoIP GW that Cisco VoIP GW
implementation of H.323 stack in not standard compliant. We test several
images from 12.1. to 12.2. and find out that Cisco VoIP GWs does NOT send
for H.323 Setup message response H.323 setup acknowledge. Based on the H.323
standard every device must send H.323 SETUP ACK when it receives H.323
SETUP. Anyone has experience this behaviour too.

Best regards,
Tomaz
