The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Note: Issue the Cisco IOS debug command debug isdn q931 for the Cause i = 0x80BA. This is explained in the Understand debug isdn q931 Disconnect Cause Codes document.
Note: For Cause i = 0x82c1 - Bearer capability not implemented, the network cannot provide the bearer capability requested by the user. This can be linked to a Telco problem.
If this is the case, add the command under the Serial interface. Issue debug isdn q931 and check to see if you still encounter this problem. If so, issue the debug isdn q931 command and also add these Cisco IOS commands to the configuration.
service timestamps debug datetime msec
service timestamps log datetime msec
Make a test call again, and check the output of the debug isdn q931 command.
Add the isdn incoming-voice modem command under the Serial interface to change the behavior for Cause i = 0x80BA.

If you encounter any problems, collect an SS7 sniffer trace in combination with Cisco IOS debug command debug isdn q931 and a Cisco PGW 2200 Message Definition Language (MDL) trace.
Follow these steps to collect an MDL trace:
Identify the Originating SS7 SigPath Number or the Originating TrunkGroup Number on which calls are placed.
Rotate the log by running the script located at /opt/CiscoMGC/bin/log_rotate.sh.
Start the MDL trace by issuing the sta-sc-trc:ss7sigPath name | orig trunkgroup number command and confirm. If you want more details, issue the help:sta-sc-trc help command through Man-Machine Language (MML).
Perform a test by making a call.
Stop the MDL trace by issuing the stp-sc-trc:all command.
Identify the Call ID (C:) of the bad call. If the test call is made in a test environment, only one Call ID is displayed.
This is an example of the details you receive when you issue ./get_trc.sh trace_file_name:
/opt/CiscoMGC/bin mgcusr@PGW2200% ./get_trc.sh _ss7path_20040116104232.btr get_trc.sh ca/sim/sp Trace File Utility Mistral Version 1.2 The ANALYSIS mdo file is: GENERIC_ANALYSIS.mdo Retrieving _ss7path_20040116104232.btr trace file Call ID's, please wait... Enter one of the following commands: S = Simprint in less F = Simprint with printing of sent and received Fields in less D = Display trc trace in less G = Display trc trace in less (Generated) C = Convert to trc trace file A = Display CA file in less N = Move to Next call ID P = Move to Previous call ID L = List call ID's in current file X = Set SP flags H = Print Help Q = Quit get_trc.sh Or just enter the ID of the call you want if you know it Use (N)ext and (P)revious to move between the call ID's _ss7path_20040116104232.btr contains 10 call(s) ==> Working on call 1 ID 24 H = Help [S/F/D/G/C/A/N/P/L/H/Q/id]?
Note: These files can contain many mixed-up call tracings if the capture is taken on a production Cisco PGW 2200. Each tracing record in the file has a specific record type and records information of a type that relates to that record. Each record has a Call ID that relates it to a specific call.
Convert the MDL trace into a readable format. Go to the directory /opt/CiscoMGC/bin and issue the command ./get_trc.sh trace file name.
Type Call ID at the prompt to jump to the MDL trace of the bad call.
Choose the C option to convert the trace file.
Note: Files with the extension .btr are binary trace files produced by the Cisco PGW 2200 tracer function. The main part of the file name is given in the Cisco PGW 2200 MML command sta-sc-trc. The Cisco PGW 2200 always adds a .btr extension to these files. When you use the "C" option, the file is converted into text format and the extension .trc is added to the filename. These files contain detailed line-by-line trace information from the MDO code that was run in the simulation replay that produced the file, so they contain MDL traces.
The trace file is located at /opt/CiscoMGC/var/trace. Upload both the .btr and the .trc files to the Service Request for review.
Collect the platform.log file located at /opt/CiscoMGC/var/log.
In some cases, while handling the Service Request, the Cisco Technical Support engineer asks that other platform.log information related to the problem be reported.
This section lists several methods for collecting sniffer traces. Which one you choose depends on whether you have Cisco Packet Telephony Center—Monitoring and Troubleshooting (PTC-MT) installed or are running an old version of Cisco snooper. Cisco snooper can provide a good understanding of the SS7-SIP call flow.
Issue the snoop command on all Solaris platforms:
To collect UNIX snoop information, log in as superuser and issue the command:
snoop -o snoop.log IP address
Enter Ctrl+C to exit snoop and upload the snoop.log file to the case notes.
Note: Explain in the case notes that this file was captured through use of the UNIX snoop command.
Run the Cisco snooper application:
To collect Cisco snooper information, log in as superuser and issue the ./snooper int INTERFACE PARMS LIST command or run ./snooper, which gives you a full description.
./snooper int hme'x' ni2+ ss7 > snooper_int1 !--- Where 'x' is the interface number, which you can also find !--- by issuing the ifconfig -a command.
Note: Upload the snooper_int1 file to the case notes.
Run PTC-MT.
To collect PTC-MT information, please log in as superuser and issue the ./ptcmt int INTERFACE PARMS LIST command or run ./snooper, which gives you a full description.
./ptcmt int hme'x' ni2+ ss7 > snooper_int1 !--- Where 'x' is the interface number, which you can also find !--- by issuing the ifconfig -a command.
Upload the "snooper_int1" file to the case notes.
