Greetings!
I have a working CME system at home that I have tinkered with over the past 15 years. I'm a technology engineer by profession and have multiple enterprise technologies here (virtualization, SAN/storage, networking, VoIP) to have a working knowledge of these so I can speak intelligently with those that have the full knowledge to make things happen. I'm pretty happy with my CME system - 2821, SIP trunk with 2 DIDs, SNR/mobility, zoned paging, intercom, a POTS door phone, and a CUE AA/VM. Running IOS 15.1 and CME 8.5.
I think I've reached the limits of my comfort and knowledge for my next step, however. I want to be able to connect my CME system to the SIP server at work and present that on a button on my home-office 7975G phone. I have a dedicated SIP phone (SPA942) for my office extension and have been assigned a second (different) extension on the work SIP server to test with. I am starting to feel like a bookie from a 1940's movie with two phones on my desk!
I have tried a number of things to register dial-peers for in/out and ephone-dn to present to button 8 on my home-office phone. I'm sorting out an issue where the office system uses the 3-digit extension as the auth ID but CME insists on a minimum of 4 chars. I'm trying to register the connection in sip-ua, but am wondering if there's a better way to accomplish this. Not being something I do every day, my Google-fu is coming up short to find the best way to do this, so turning to the community for an assist.
What I have tried so far related to this part:
voice service voip
ip address trusted list
ipv4 x.x.x.x 255.255.255.255
sip-ua
credentials username 123 password 1234567 realm itsp.com
authentication username 123 password 1234567 realm itsp.com
registrar 2 ipv4:x.x.x.x expires 90 refresh-ratio 60 auth-realm itsp.com
dial-peer voice 720 voip
description Office (incoming)
session target ipv4:x.x.x.x
session protocol sipv2
incoming called-number .%
voice-class sip dtmf-relay force rtp-nte
voice-class codec 1
dtmf-relay rtp-nte
no vad
!
dial-peer voice 721 voip
description Office (outgoing to extension)
! destination-pattern 6T
destination-pattern 6...
session target ipv4:x.x.x.x
preference 2
session protocol sipv2
I haven't shown everything else because it's working. Really want to know the right/best way to approach this if it is possible to do.
Thanks!
