outgoing call service order
jazzy:
What about when using a VGx to call out on. I have 2 VG's for outgoing calls, but do not register them on a SPx.
My only outgoing services are those VG's. I just register SP2 with another provider for incoming calls only.
I just use VG1 or VG2 to call out on. If VGx is down, or not 'enabled' my call will not go out. Is there a way to make an automatic failover when using VG's to call out on?
ianobi:
Voice Gateways work without registration, so the OBi cannot detect a Voice Gateway failure. How they behave will depend on this setting for the relevant spX that they are using for their SIP functions, let’s say vg1 uses sp1:
Voice Services > SP1 Service > SP1 Service > X_NoRegNoCall
If this is checked and the voip provider on sp1 fails to register, then vg1 will also fail. If it is unchecked, then if the voip provider on sp1 fails to register, then vg1 will continue to operate normally, assuming that there is still access to broadband.
My main voip provider is on sp1, my Trunk Group looks like this:
Voice Services > Gateways and Trunk Groups > Trunk Group1 >
TrunkList: sp1,vg3,li
DigitMap: ((Msp1)|(Mvg3)|(Mli))
vg3 (voipcheap.co.uk) uses sp2 set up as a “fake” SIP provider not requiring registration for its SIP functions.
Now if sp1 fails, outgoing calls will failover to vg3 for landline and cellphone calls. (Mvg3) does not contain the rule for emergency services – 999 in my case - therefore any 999 calls that would normally go to sp1 will now failover to the Line Port. This is a way of providing emergency service backup.
@ jazzy – the only advantage of putting your vg1 and vg2 in a Trunk Group would be that if all sessions on vg1 were in use, then calls would automatically route to vg2. If you converted one of your Voice Gateways to a registered voip provider on sp1 and made sure the other Voice Gateway uses sp2 for its SIP functions, then a Trunk Group like this would work for you:
Voice Services > Gateways and Trunk Groups > Trunk Group1 >
TrunkList: sp1,vg1
DigitMap: ((Msp1)|(Mvg1))
With this checked:
Voice Services > SP1 Service > SP1 Service > X_NoRegNoCall
If sp1 fails to register, then outgoing calls will failover to vg1.

azrobert,
If 1?xxxxxxxxxx works for 10 & 11 digits, why is this not used instead of using both xxxxxxxxxx & 1xxxxxxxxxx ? Seems simpler and more universal, covering more needs.
Anyone have any idea why my Trunk Goup 1 does not work. [See my 2nd post in this thread]
azrobert:
The default DigitMap doesn't contain xxxxxxxxxx
It has <1>xxxxxxxxxx
<1>xxxxxxxxxx adds a one prefix when 10 digits are dialed, xxxxxxxxxxx doesn't.
1?xxxxxxxxxx will validate 10 and 11 digits, but 10 digits will be routed without a country code.
Some providers require the country code.
You must have added {(Mtg2),tg2} to the Phone Port OutboundCallRoute.
Change it to {(Mtg1),tg1} to see if TG1 works that way.

azrobert,
I have no mtgx or tgx entries.
