On the router, during a call is active, is the IP address under 'show
call active voice brief' reachable from the MGCP interface on the router
that MGCP is bound to and vice versa? Does that output show tx/rx
traffic counts incrementing?  With MGCP all the information may not be
displayed for that command, but the IP address and tx/rx counts will be
there. 

Also check the phones web page during an active connected phone call,
the stream page and see what IP's it is showing for the stream and
verify reachibility of the path from phone to the remote device (the
gateway in this case).

Also, from the config , mgcp bind commands are set for the gigabit
ethernet but loopback has description on it as being MGCP interface. May
not be a issue since you are troubleshooting this issue, etc and
probably made changes while figuring this out but just in case you have
routing/ACLs/etc set up for that and not the other interfaces, etc.

May want to do a 'debug mgcp pack' during call setup to see if
setup/audio-cutover is correct and all packets are making it to gateway,
etc. Are there any routing, firewalls, or QoS policies that may be
effecting the call flow past this gateway? There are no drops on the QoS
policies?

The 'service mgcpapp' commands are not needed on the pots dial-peers for
PRI ports. In older cisco docs this was the practice but then there was
a bug id on how that effected MGCP PRI backhauls and caused problems so
now they say do not put that command on pots dial-peers for PRI ports.
There are some conflicting docs out there on this still.

Is this the only site having this issue, other sites working fine if
there are others?  What version CCM and phone firmwares?

What did you upgrade the IOS to? I see the config posted is 12.3(14)T5
but the current in that stream is 12.3(14)T7.

Two quick questions -

 

1. Can you please verify that the PVDM-2s in the 3825 work fine? (I
remember seeing something similar on a router with a PVDM issue.)

2. Can you post your router configuration it would definitely help.

 

HTH, 

Nikola

Can you get a sniffer capture at the phone and recreate the audio in 
the capture file?

Have you done PCM dumps at the router yet?

I have a very interesting issue at a client I am working with. We are 
converting this customer from a Nortel to CallManager. This customer 
is using IP phones already. There are four locations that are 
converting to IP phones. All four locations will be using a single 
3825 voice gateway to the PSTN. We connected the phones at one 
location and configured the gateway as an MGCP gateway. We have two 
Bellsouth ISDN PRIs connected to the gateway that came out of the 
Nortel. The ISDN connections come up with no problem. We have 
verified the Frame type with the Bellsouth and the PRI are working 
fine. The phones are using PoE and are getting the IP address via 
DHCP and are using a voice VLAN. The PCs are connected to the access 
port on the phones. The Phones register to the Subscriber just fine. 
Calls are being routed to the Gateway with no problem. Inbound calls 
make it to the IP phones fine. So you are asking then what the 
problem is. There is no audio on the call or ring back. The call sets 
up fine. The ISDN debugs show no errors. The phone maintains the 
connection until you hang up. And if you look at the RTP and UDP 
debugs it is sending and receiving the RTP traffic without issues or 
appears to be. You can start an ISDN Q931 debug and make a call. When 
the call is connected look at the traffic info on the phone and 
everything appears as it should accept there is no audio, static or 
anything. We have made calls from different phones, phone types 
(7961, 7912, and IP Communicator) with the same result. IP 
connectivity is good. There are no IP routing issues. We upgraded the 
IOS on the Gateway. We caused the phones to go into SRST mode to 
remove the CallManager from the equation and it was the same result. 
Cisco to Cisco calls work great. This one has TAC scratching there 
head. If anyone has ever seen a problem like this or have any other 
suggestions I would really appreciate your input.
