Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express Lab Sim
(Notice: This labsim is only used for CCNA Voice 640-460)
Question
To configure the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express click on the console host icon that is connected to a Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express by a serial console cable (shown in the diagram as a dashed black line). You can click on the buttons below to view the different windows. Each of the windows can be minimized by clicking on the [-]. You can also reposition a window by dragging it by the title bar.
The “Tab” key and most commands that use the “Control” or “Escape” keys are not supported and not necessary to complete this simulation. The help command does not display all commands of the help system.
Scenario:
You are required to manually configure a Cisco Unified Unified Communications Manager Express to support two IP phones with directory numbers starting with 5001.
The phones need to be configured as dual-line phones as per the following table:
| Phone | MAC Address | Primary Directory Number (dual-line) Button 1 |
Shared Directory Number (dual-line) Button 2 |
| IP Phone 1 | 0014.1CBC.E179 | 5001 | 5010 |
| IP Phone 2 | 0003.E3C4.463C | 5002 | 5010 |
The Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express should be configured as a DHCP and TFTP server.
The IP phones should obtain their IP addresses via DHCP in the range 10.3.130.10 – 10.3.130.254. IP addresses in the range 10.3.130.1 to 10.3.130.9 should be excluded.
The IP phones are connected to an EtherSwitch module, interface GigabitEthernet1/0 on a Cisco 2811 router as per the topology diagram. The voice VLAN ID is 130 and default router for the IP phones is 10.3.130.1.
The EtherSwitch module has been preconfigured and is not configurable.
You are also required to configure a second directory number 5010 as a shared directory number on line 2 of each IP phone.

Answer and Explanation
Configure DHCP and TFTP Server:
CME#configure terminal
CME(config)#ip dhcp excluded-address 10.3.130.1 10.3.130.9
CME(config)#ip dhcp pool MyPool
CME(dhcp-config)#network 10.3.130.0 255.255.255.0
CME(dhcp-config)#default-router 10.3.130.1
CME(dhcp-config)#option 150 ip 10.3.130.1
CME(dhcp-config)#exit
The default-router sets the default gateway that will handed out to the DCHP clients and the option 150 tells the IP Phone where the TFTP server is. In this case, the CME takes the role of DHCP server and TFTP server so we use the same IP address 10.3.130.1.
CME(config)#telephony-service
CME(config-telephony)#max-dn 3
CME(config-telephony)#max-ephone 2
CME(config-telephony)#ip source-address 10.3.130.1
CME(config-telephony)#exit
As the question required, we have to configure these phones as dual-line ones. In dual-line mode, the ephone-dn is able to handle two simultaneous
calls. This is useful for supporting features like call waiting, conference calling, and consultative transfers.
CME(config)#ephone-dn 1 dual-line
CME(config-ephone-dn)#number 5001
CME(config-ephone-dn)#exit
CME(config)#ephone-dn 2 dual-line
CME(config-ephone-dn)#number 5002
CME(config-ephone-dn)#exit
CME(config)#ephone-dn 3 dual-line
CME(config-ephone-dn)#number 5010
CME(config-ephone-dn)#exit
CME(config)#ephone 1
CME(config-ephone)#mac-address 0014.1cbc.e179
CME(config-ephone)#button 1:1 2:3
CME(config-ephone)#restart
CME(config-ephone)#exit
CME(config)#ephone 2
CME(config-ephone)#mac-address 0003.e3c4.463c
CME(config-ephone)#button 1:2 2:3
CME(config-ephone)#restart
CME(config-ephone-dn)#exit
CME(config)#exit
The button 1:2 2:3 syntax assigns ephone-dn 2 (number 5002) to button 1 and assigns ephone-dn 3 (number 5010) to button 2. The colon (:) separator designates that this is a “normal ring” button assignment.
Notice that the ephone-dn 3 is assigned to both ephones with the button … 2:3 commands. With this configuration, incoming calls to DN-3 (5010) will ring on both phones, and the call will be transferred to whoever answers the call first.
The restart syntax causes the phone to perform a warm reboot and redownload its configuration file from the TFTP server.
Finally, save the configuration
CME#copy running-config startup-config
What a great resource!
Dont we also should type the commands to create the VLAN130 and assign it, to the ports??
Although the VLAN130 is mentioned but we don’t need to configure it.
on the two hands on labs, is it possible to test your configuration by making theoretical calls between the two ephones?
This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I enjoy seeing websites that understand the value of providing a prime resource for free. I truly loved reading your post. Thanks!
I like how some of the routers use option 150 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx then some routers use option 150 ip xxx.xxx.xx.xxx

I agree, 9tut group had been a great help to learn. thumbs up.
Not sure if Packet tracer or GNS3 can help simulate this sim, I do see IP phone 7960 in PT though. Any suggestions?
Has any body got PassG,P4S or TI question? Please email me at mak.agha@yahoo.com.
Thanks.
@ Learner-1
You can’t recreate SIM w/ PT5.3 (as dual-line is not available) but link will walk you through setting up CME. Which I found very helpful.

@CDub,
Thanks for refering to “Exploring Packet Tracer v5.3 – IP Telephony & CME”.
i’ve done configurations for step-1.but phone’s didn’t get IP. waited for a while, and now I know why no IP on phones, bcuz fa0/0 as said in this excercise has been used by me for R-R connection.
Will have to re do every thing and will see what happens next.
Its a cool excercise, I like it.
Thx “CDub”.
We don’t get auto assigned IP on phones untill step 3 of entering command in switch “switchport voice vlan 1 #Setting switchport’s to handle voice packets#.
In step 6, we are asked to connect via serial ports S0/3/0, as we don’t have that interface module installed we will have to add that module in physical resources window. I used module for one serial connection”WIC-1T”, not sure which other will have three serial connection?
“clockrate 56000″ command is actually “clock rate 56000″
Was able to dial among phones under building One, but I still have problems with the phones under building-2 Router.
Where they get DHCP/IP assignment? wher they get Option 150 IP info, etc, etc.
Any suggestion guys?
The above comments by me were for the lab at http://www.cisco.com/web/offer/emea/6754/docs/PT_activities.pdf

For this Lab Sim in PT-5.3, I tried it on router 2811, here is what I got
CME(config-ephone)#button 1:1 2:3
Currently not supported in PT.
CME(config-ephone)#button 2:3
% This version of Packet Tracer only accepts button 1.
@ Learner-1
i’ll reply here as to keep this thread topical to SIM
http://www.certprepare.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1406
I’m confused with dual line configuration.
“CME(config)#ephone-dn 1 dual-line
CME(config-ephone-dn)#number 5001 Secondary 5010
Shouldn’t we assign secondary number 5010 on the two ephones?
As a second thought, May be we don’t need to assign 5010 as secondary number, as question says ” directory number 5010 as a shared directory number on line 2 of each IP phone.”
why we don’t assign vlan 130 to the router interface?
And don’t we should use the tftp-server command to enable the router to be a tftp-server?

Very, are those who regard the lack as a precise system of club or forge it as the use for their species.
Hi guys
is it restart or reset ?
which one is better for ppl who got 1000 , what did u type restart or reset ?
sorry guys another question :
is the command ” creat cnf-files ” is it important
Hey Guys , I have passed the exam with 1000 score
I want you to note that the command ” restart” is not implemented in the exam engine so you have to do ” reset ” instead
and just in case i also added the command ” creat cnf-files”
good luck to all
hello,
i am going to start the CCNA voice course in next month. before that i would like get an idea about this course. if any one can send me a relevant dumps books related this is appreciate.
my mail ID: hasy_001@yahoo.com
thanks,

Why the interface on the router, connecting to the switch, was not configured with ip address 10.3.130.1?
on CME router:
# interface FastEthernet 0/0.130
# encapsulation dot1Q 130
# ip address 10.3.130.1 255.255.255.0
# no shutdown
Just wondering….
Should we not start the DHCP Service on the router?
thanks alot for this forum, it is so helpful. please i was wondering if there is any simulator that can be used to replicate the voice technology er like GNS for R&S or packet tracer???? thanks!
Hi,someone that could tell me some simulator to practice this certificacion??
please.
thank u for your time.
hey every one
in real world we need to put the TFTP-SERVER
and there is a command LOAD ??????????.bin or .load depends on the type of the IP PHONE
and assign the switch port to the same VLAN and many things
enjoy it
I am starting the voice studies. Whats the best resource to study from? Sybex? Thanks for your help!
hello,
This is dump/lab valid ?
thanks.
The ip phone running in tandem with the pc/ When running dhcp for the ip phone the pc receives the dhcp address from the phone dhcp not the dhcp for the pc. How do I fix this?
interface FastEthernet0/1
switchport access vlan 50
switchport mode access
switchport voice vlan 1
Hello…! Voice tut,
Thank you for give the answer.
I have no idea that why I ask to you. I hope you give me answer. I will give exam end of month.
I had done class and as well lab. But they don’t provide rack for practice. I don’t afford device at home. If you, tell me in exam lab comes or not? If, yes than which lab comes in exam. Regarding this I rent a rack.
Thank you for free help and provide good equation.
Hi! Guys
please assist or advise.
I don’t understand the option 150 part
where does this number comes from.
Thanks…….
I have find solution,
through my study guide.
Option 150 is to tell the phones where the TFTP server, generally so they can download a config file
Hello all,
Does the ccna voice exam have lab sims as well?
i heard it only consists of theory questions.
If so, are the lab sims on this site up-to-date?
Thanks..
pls i wanna ask u guys a Q….
are these lab sims coming in the ccna voice 640-461?
pls answer this Q as possible as u can…….
