Here you will find answers to CVoice – Gatekeeper Questions

Question 1

The SJ local zone contains a gatekeeper that controls two gateways, SJ1 and SJ2. Both gateways provide access to area code 408. Which two command strings should be entered into the gatekeeper to give the SJ2 gateway priority over the SJ1 gateway? (Choose two.)

A. zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 6 SJ1
B. zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 6 SJ2
C. zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 10 SJ1
D. zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 10 SJ2
E. zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 0 SJ2, 10 SJ1
F. zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 6 SJ1, 10 SJ2


Answer: A D

Explanation

The simple syntax of “zone prefix” command is

zone prefix gatekeeper-name e164-prefix [gw-priority priority gw-alias,...]

For example, the command “zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 6 SJ1

SJ is the gatekeeper-name, 408 is the E164-prefix area code, 6 is the priority and SJ1 is the GW-alias

The [gw-priority priority gw-alias,...] part defines how the gatekeeper selects gateways in its local zone for calls to numbers beginning with prefix e164-prefix. The priority ranges from 0 to 10, where 0 prevents the gatekeeper from using the gateway gw-alias for that prefix and 10 places the highest priority on gateway gw-alias. The default is 5.

By assigning SJ2 a priority value higher than that of SJ1, SJ2 will be the first choice when making call to this zone.

Question 2

Refer to the H.323 message in the exhibit. What is the gateway doing with the gatekeeper?

value RasMessage ::= registrationRequest :


{
requestSeqNum 32633
protocolIdentifier { 0 0 8 2250 0 4}
discoveryComplete FALSE
callSignalAddress
{
}
rasAddress
{


ipAddress :
{
ip ’0A038201′H
port 53852
}

}
terminalType
{

mc FALSE
undefinedNode FALSE

}
gatekeeperIdentifier {“HQ”}
endpointVendor
{

vendor
{


t35countrycode 181
t35Extension 0
manufacturerCode 18

}

}
timeToLive 60
keepAlive TRUE
endpointIdentifier {“8452AEB4 00000002″}
willSupplyUUIEs FALSE
maintainConnection TRUE
}

A. initial registration
B. full registration
C. lightweight registration
D. registration retry


Answer: C

Explanation

For the first time the gateway registers with the gatekeeper, it uses full registration. Prior to H.323 Version 2, Cisco gateways re-registered with the gatekeeper every 30 seconds. Each registration renewal used the same process as the initial registration, even though the gateway was already registered with the gatekeeper. This behavior generated considerable overhead at the gatekeeper. So from H.323 version 2, gateways can re-register with the gatekeeper using lightweight registration (it still requires the full registration process for initial registration, but uses an abbreviated renewal procedure to update the gatekeeper and minimize overhead).

An endpoint’s registration with a gatekeeper may have a limited life span. The gatekeeper specifies the registration duration for an endpoint by including a timeToLive field in the Registration Confirm (RCF) message. After the specified length of time, the registration is considered expired. The endpoint must periodically send a Registration Request (RRQ) having the keepAlive bit set prior to the expiration time. Such a message may include a minimum amount of information as described in H.225.0 and is known as a lightweight RRQ.

In the exhibit above, we can see the keepAlive bit is set to TRUE -> this is a lightweight RRQ.

Question 3

In which three RAS messages is the technology prefix sent? (Choose three.)

A. GRQ
B. RRQ
C. RCF
D. IRR
E. IRQ


Answer: A B E

Explanation

The Cisco gatekeeper uses technology prefixes to group endpoints of the same type together. It uses the technology prefix appended in the called number to select the destination gateway or zone.

This method prepends a technology prefix to the called number matched by the dial-peer. It is not used for registration, but for call setup with the Cisco gatekeeper. For example, called number 5551234 becomes 1#5551234.

The technology prefix registration information is sent to the Cisco gatekeeper in the RAS Registration Request (RRQ) message. For example:

GWY-B1(config)#interface ethernet 0/0
GWY-B1(config-if)#h323-gateway voip tech-prefix 1#

-> B is correct.

Question 4

Refer to the output from the debug h225 asn1 command in the exhibit. You have configured a gatekeeper with two local zones, hq and br. You want the gateway at the branch location to register with zone BR. What needs to be corrected in the branch gateway to resolve the issue?

A. Change the IP address in the h323-gateway voip id command.
B. Change the gatekeeper-id in the h323-gateway voip id command.
C. Add a zone remote for zone BR so the gateway can register with the correct zone.
D. Change the gatekeeper-id and the IP address in the h323-gateway voip id command.


Answer: B

    I am confused on Q1. The correct answer should be B & D ?? A is not correct: SJ1 gets priority 6, SJ2 5 by default, then SJ1′s priority is over SJ2′s, this is the result which is opposite to the given condition in question.

  2. voicetut
    July 1st, 2010

    The priority of GW SJ2 is 10 with option D “zone prefix SJ 408 gw-priority 10 SJ2″

  3. Oker
    July 1st, 2010

    I understand option D, but donot understand A.

    If A, then SJ1 gets priority 6, SJ2 5 by default, then SJ1’s priority is over SJ2’s, this is the result which is opposite to the given condition in question.

  4. voicetut
    July 2nd, 2010

    We have to type these two commands into the gatekeeper to make the priority of SJ2 higher than that of SJ1. Don’t think about option A solely. Without D, A is not correct.

    Oh, I see what you mean, they work together. I thought about them seperately. Thanks.

    To Q10. Can I replace “zone remote GK-B acme.com 172.16.14.99 1719″ with “zone local GK-B acme.com 172.16.14.99 1719″? Is that correct?

    Q1 Explanation:

    If there is more than one default gateway, you can affect the gateway priority usage with the zone prefix gw-priority command.

    gw-priority pri-0-to-10

    (Optional) Defines how the gatekeeper selects gateways in its local zone for calls to numbers beginning with prefix e164-prefix. Do not use this option to set priority levels for a prefix assigned to a remote gatekeeper.

    Range is from 0 to 10, where 0 prevents the gatekeeper from using the gateway gw-alias for that prefix and 10 places the highest priority on gateway gw-alias. The default is 5.

    To assign the same priority value for one prefix to multiple gateways, list all the gateway names after the pri-0-to-10 value.

    Defaults

    No knowledge of the gatekeeper zone prefix or the prefix of any other zone is defined.
    Gateway priority is 5.

    voicetut / any body, do you have references for the answers in Q3 and Q6 ?

    I’m a bit curious on how the answers came up.

    Thanks!

    The subsequent time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I imply, I know it was my choice to learn, however I truly thought youd have one thing interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could repair in case you werent too busy in search of attention.
