Chapter 5 Configuring VoIP trunks 69
IP Telephony Configuration Guide
For PSTN fallback to work, you must ensure that the digits the user dials will be the same
regardless of whether the call is going over the VoIP trunk or the PSTN. In many cases, this
involves configuring the system to add and/or absorb digits. This process is explained during the
steps in “Configuring routes” on page 70 and “Creating destination codes for fallback” on page 72.
For detailed information about inserting and absorbing digits, see the Business Communications
Manager 2.5 Programming Operations Guide.
Setting up PSTN fallback includes:
• Enabling PSTN fallback
• Setting up the VoIP schedule
• Configuring routes and dialing digits
• Creating destination codes for fallback
• Activating the VoIP schedule
• Turning on QoS monitor
Enabling PSTN fallback
To enable PSTN fallback:
1 Open Services, IP Telephony and click on H.323 trunks.
2 Click the Fallback to Circuit-Switched menu and select Enabled-All or
Enabled-TDM-only. Enabled-TDM-only enables fallback for calls originating on digital
telephones. This is useful if your IP telephones are connected remotely, on the public side of
the Business Communications Manager network, because PSTN fallback is unlikely to result
in better quality of service in that scenario.
Setting up the VoIP schedule
You can determine which telephones/lines will choose the VoIP route as the prime route by setting
up the VoIP schedule to allow you to manually activate the service from a control set. The PSTN
route gets assigned to the Normal schedule, which runs on all telephones when no other schedule
is activated.
Follow these steps to set up the VoIP schedule:
1 Open Services, Telephony Services, Scheduled Services, Routing Service, and click on
VoIP. The VoIP schedule screen appears in the right frame. Refer to Figure 23.
