Appendix A Case Study: Troubleshooting Cisco Unified IP Phone Calls

Troubleshooting Intracluster Cisco Unified IP Phone Calls

In the following trace, Cisco Unified CallManager has received new connections for registration. The
registering devices are MTP_nsa-cm1 (MTP services on Unified CM1), and CFB_nsa-cm1 (Conference
Bridge service on Unified CM1). Although these are software services that are running on
Cisco Unified CallManager, they get treated internally as different external services and therefore get
assigned a TCPHandle, socket number, and port number as well as a device name.

16:02:52.750 CCM|StationInit - New connection accepted. DeviceName=, TCPHandle=0x4fbaa00,

Socket=0x594, IPAddr=172.16.70.228, Port=3279, StationD=[0,0,0]

16:02:52.750 CCM|StationInit - New connection accepted. DeviceName=, TCPHandle=0x4fe05e8,

Socket=0x59c, IPAddr=172.16.70.228, Port=3280, StationD=[0,0,0]

16:02:52.781 CCM|StationInit - Processing StationReg. regCount: 1 DeviceName=MTP_nsa-cm1,

TCPHandle=0x4fbaa00, Socket=0x594, IPAddr=172.16.70.228, Port=3279, StationD=[1,45,2]

16:02:52.781 CCM|StationInit - Processing StationReg. regCount: 1 DeviceName=CFB_nsa-cm1,

Cisco Unified CallManager KeepAlive Process

The station, device, or service and the Cisco Unified CallManager use the following messages to
maintain a knowledge of the communications channel between them. The messages begin the KeepAlive
sequence that ensures that the communications link between the Cisco Unified CallManager and the
station remains active. The following messages can originate from either the Cisco Unified CallManager
or the station.

16:03:02.328 CCM|StationInit - InboundStim - KeepAliveMessage - Forward KeepAlive to

StationD. DeviceName=MTP_nsa-cm2, TCPHandle=0x4fa7dc0, Socket=0x568, IPAddr=172.16.70.229,

Port=1556, StationD=[1,45,1]

16:03:02.328 CCM|StationInit - InboundStim - KeepAliveMessage - Forward KeepAlive to

StationD. DeviceName=CFB_nsa-cm2, TCPHandle=0x4bf8a70, Socket=0x57c, IPAddr=172.16.70.229,

Port=1557, StationD=[1,96,1]

16:03:06.640 CCM|StationInit - InboundStim - KeepAliveMessage - Forward KeepAlive to

StationD. DeviceName=SEP0010EB001720, TCPHandle=0x4fbb150, Socket=0x600,

IPAddr=172.16.70.230, Port=49211, StationD=[1,85,2]

16:03:06.703 CCM|StationInit - InboundStim - KeepAliveMessage - Forward KeepAlive to

StationD. DeviceName=SEP003094C26105, TCPHandle=0x4fbbc30, Socket=0x5a4,

IPAddr=172.16.70.231, Port=52095, StationD=[1,85,1]

The messages in the following trace depict the KeepAlive sequence that indicates that the
communications link between the Cisco Unified CallManager and the station is active. Again, these
messages can originate from either the Cisco Unified CallManager or the station.

16:03:02.328 CCM|MediaTerminationPointControl - stationOutputKeepAliveAck

tcpHandle=4fa7dc0

16:03:02.328 CCM|UnicastBridgeControl - stationOutputKeepAliveAck tcpHandle=4bf8a70

16:03:06.703 CCM|StationInit - InboundStim - IpPortMessageID: 32715(0x7fcb)

tcpHandle=0x4fbbc30

16:03:06.703 CCM|StationD - stationOutputKeepAliveAck tcpHandle=0x4fbbc30

Cisco Unified CallManager Intracluster Call Flow Traces

The following SDI traces explore the intracluster call flow in detail. You can identify
Cisco Unified IP Phones in the call flow by the directory number (dn), tcpHandle, and IP address. A
Cisco Unified IP Phone (dn: 1001, tcpHandle: 0x4fbbc30, IP address: 172.16.70.231) located in Cluster
2 is calling another Cisco Unified IP Phone in the same Cluster (dn=1000, tcpHandle= 0x4fbb150, IP
address= 172.16.70.230). Remember that you can follow a device through the trace by looking at the
TCP handle value, time stamp, or name of the device. The TCP handle value for the device remains the
same until the device is rebooted or goes offline.
