Tin Cups and String: The Convergent Microsoft UC Blog

I recently implemented static routing on a Quintum Tenor DX via called number in a downstream gateway deployment. It’s not difficult, but there are a couple checkboxes you have to tick to get it working right. It’s a quick little trick that may come in handy at some point. (Note: I used the OCS 2007 wizard on the Tenor for the default configuration and went on from there.)

· Log into the Tenor Config Manager and click on the Advanced Explore tab

· Under VOIP Configuration select SIP Signaling Group-1 under SIP Signaling Groups

o Clear the Primary SIP server if there is one.

o Check the Direct Gateway Routing box.

· Next expand VOIP Routing and select Signaling

o Add a description if desired and fill in the IP of the SIP host

o Click Add and enter in the extension sent from the upstream provider

· Click the Advanced Tab and select Gatekeeper.

At this point you’ve made your “exception” list by pointing specified numbers at a specific IP. You can then create a “catch all” and forward all other numbers to a separate IP, or create other specific route lists.

· Select VOIP Routing then right click and Create New, name it however you’d like (it is suggested NOT to rename Static Route-1).

o Follow the above steps, but you can create wildcards with “*”.

· Be sure to select Gatekeeper on the Advanced Tab for this Route as well.
