Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access

Mobile Connect enables users to manage business calls using a single phone number and pick up
in-progress calls on the desktop phone and cellular phone. Mobile Voice Access extends Mobile Connect
capabilities by way of an integrated voice response (IVR) system used to initiate Mobile Connect calls
and activate or deactivate Mobile Connect capabilities.

Introducing Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access

Mobile Connect allows users to answer incoming calls on the desktop phone or cellular phone, to pick
up in-progress calls on the desktop phone or cellular phone without losing the connection, and to
originate enterprise calls from the cellular phone.
Mobile Voice Access extends Mobile Connect capabilities by allowing users to originate a call from a
remote destination such as a cellular phone as if dialing from the desktop phone. A remote destination
is a phone that is designated as available for Mobile Connect responses and pickup. The user dials
Mobile Voice Access from the remote destination. The user is prompted for the PIN assigned to the user
in Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Once authenticated, the user can make a call using the same
Mobile Connect features that would be available if the user originated the call from the enterprise
desktop phone.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager Features and Services Guide

 Chapter 24 Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access
Introducing Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access

When calling Mobile Voice Access, the system prompts the user for the originating phone number in
addition to the PIN if any of the following is true:
• The number the user is calling from is not one of the user’s remote destinations.
• The number is blocked by the user or the user’s carrier (shown as “Unknown Number”).
• The number is not accurately matched in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database; for
example, if the number is 510-666-9999, but it is listed as 666-9999 in the database, or the number
is 408-999-6666, but it is entered as 1-408-999-6666 in the database.
If the user incorrectly enters any requested information (such as cellular phone number or PIN) three
times in a row, the Mobile Voice Access call disconnects, and the user is locked out for a period of time.

Note Existing cellular phones, including Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and Global System for
Mobile Communications (GSM) phones can be used for Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access. In
some cases, however, it may be necessary to modify timer settings in Cisco Unified Communications
Manager to assure compatibility. See the “Adding Remote Destinations” section on page 24-16.

Introducing Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access

Features and Benefits

Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access enable flexible management of enterprise and cellular
telephone communications and provide these features and benefits:
• Simultaneous desktop ringing—Incoming calls ring simultaneously on the IP phone extension and
the designated mobile handset.When the user answers one line, the unanswered line automatically
stops ringing. Users can choose the preferred device each time a call comes in.
• Desktop call pickup—Users can switch between desktop phone and cellular phone during an active
call without losing the connection. Based on the needs of the moment, they can take advantage of
the reliability of the wired office phone or the mobility of the cellular phone.
• Single enterprise voice mailbox—The enterprise voice mail box can serve as single, consolidated
voicemail box for all business, including calls to the desktop or configured remote devices.
Incoming callers have a predictable means of contacting employees and less time is required for
users to check multiple voice mail systems.
• System remote access—A user’s cellular phone can initiate calls as if it were a local IP PBX
extension. User-initiated calls can take advantage of local voice gateways and WAN trunking, and
the enterprise can track employee call initiation.
• Allowed and blocked access lists—Users can restrict the set of callers that cause a designated remote
destination to ring on an incoming call (allowed access list) or for which the remote destinations do
not ring on an incoming call (blocked access list). Each remote destination presents a cellular or
other phone that can be configured to accept transfers from the user’s desktop phone.
• Caller ID—Caller ID is preserved and displayed on all calls. Users can take advantage of Mobile
Connect with no loss of expected IP phone features.
• Remote on/off control—Users can turn their Mobile Connect features on or off from the cellular
phone using Mobile Voice Access or from the end user configuration pages.
• Call tracing—Detailed Mobile Connect calls are logged, providing information to help the
enterprise optimize trunk usage and debug connection problems.
• Security and privacy for Mobile Connect calls—During an active Mobile Connect call, the
associated desktop IP phone is secured. Access to the call from the desktop is eliminated as soon as
the cellular connection becomes active, precluding the possibility of an unauthorized person
listening in on the call that is bridged to the cellular phone.
• Mid-call enterprise feature support—DTMF feature codes are configurable as Cisco Unified
Communications Manager service parameters: Hold (default is *81), exclusive hold (default is *82),
resume (default is *83), transfer (default is *84), and conference (default is *85).
• Smart phone support—Users can use the enterprise hold, resume, transfer, conference softkeys on
the smartphone in an active call. Users can also enable or disable Mobile Connect from a
smartphone.
• Enterprise feature access for two-stage dialing—Enterprise features are available with two-stage
dialing for smartphones. Two-stage dialing allows smartphones to make outgoing calls through
Cisco Unified Communications Manager if the smartphone is in business mode. The smartphone
dials the Enterprise Feature Access number for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and then
dials the destination number.
• Manual handoff calls on dual mode phone—Dual-mode devices offer an option to manually hand
off calls from the PSTN to WLAN and vice versa.

Interactions and Restrictions

Use Case Scenarios

Mobile Connect supports these use case scenarios:
• Receiving an outside call on desktop or cellular phone—An outside caller dials the user’s desktop
extension. The desktop phone and cellular phone ring simultaneously. When the user answers one
of the phones, the other phone stops from a desktop telephone to a cellular phone. The user can
switch from the desktop phone to cellular phone during a call without losing the connection.
Switching is supported for incoming and outgoing calls.
• Moving back from a cellular phone to a desktop phone—If a call was initiated to or from the desktop
phone and then shifted to the cellular phone, the call can be shifted back to the desktop phone.
• Using mid-call enterprise features—During a Mobile Connect call, users can perform mid-call
functions, including hold/resume, exclusive hold, transfer, and conference.
• Using enterprise features with two- stage dialing—When a user wants to place a call from a
smartphone and the smartphone is in business mode, the call is made through Cisco Unified
Communications Manager. The function is similar to Mobile Voice Access, but without voice
prompts. Users can also use this method to turn Mobile Connect on or off.
Mobile Voice Access supports these scenarios:
• Initiating a mobility call from a remote phone, such as a cellular phone—Users can use Mobile
Voice Access to initiate calls from a cellular phone as if dialing from the desktop phone.
• Moving from a cellular phone to a desktop phone during a cellular-phone initiated call—If the user
has initiated a call from a cellular phone using Mobile Voice Access, the user can shift to the desktop
phone during the call without losing the connection, and can shift back again as needed.

Interactions and Restrictions

Most standard Cisco Unified Communications Manager features are compatible with Mobile Connect
and Mobile Voice Access, except as indicated here:
• Up to two simultaneous Mobile Connect calls are supported at one time. Any additional calls that
come in are automatically transferred to the user’s voice mail.
• To use Mobile Connect features, you must first disable the Auto Call Pickup feature.
• The Forced Authorization Code and Client Matter Code (FAC/CMC) feature does not work with
Mobile Voice Access.
• Mobile Connect does not work with Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP). If a call is
preempted with MLPP, Mobile Connect features are disabled for that call.
• Mobile Connect services do not extend to video calls. A video call received at the desktop phone
cannot be picked up on the cellular phone.
• Remote destinations must be Time Division Multiplex (TDM) devices. You cannot configure IP
phones within a Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster as remote destinations.
• Users can not initiate a meet-me conference as conference controller using Mobile Voice Access,
but can join a meet-me conference.
• QSIG (Q Signaling) path replacement is not supported.
• Dual mode handoff requires that caller ID be available in the cellular network.
• While a dual mode phone is in Wi-Fi enterprise mode, it is not controlled or monitored by any CTI
applications.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager Features and Services Guide

24-4 OL-12529-01
Chapter 24 Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access
System Requirements

• Availability of enterprise features in GSM using DTMF depends upon the features that are supported
in the third party smartphones.
• Only H.323 VoIP gateways are supported for Mobile Voice Access.
• Enterprise features from cellular networks require out-of-band DTMF.
• Call anchoring is performed based on caller ID and is supported only from calls from registered
single mode or dual mode phones
• Remote destinations are limited to PSTN numbers or numbers across ICT trunks.
• Calls put on hold by Cisco Unified IP Phones, cannot be resumed by remote destinations.
• The In Use Remote indicator for dual mode phones on a shared line call in the WLAN will disappear
if the dual mode phone goes out of WLAN range.
• Mobile Connect features are not supported for T1 CAS, FXO, FXS and BRI.
• If an existing conference call is initiated from a shared-line IP phone or dual mode phone or
smartphone that is a remote destination, no new conference party can be added to the existing
conference after the call has been sent to a cellular for or a dual mode handoff action has been taken.
To permit the addition of new conference parties, use the Advanced Ad Hoc Conference Enabled
service parameter.
• When configuring a directory number associated with a remote destination profile, you must use
ASCII characters only in the Display (Internal Caller ID) field on the Directory Number
Configuration page.
• It is not necessary to configure settings for call forward unregistered, if the end user has configured
remote destinations. Appropriate call forwarding will is handled as part of the Mobile Connect
process.
• In a multiple node cluster environment, if the Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 publisher
is unreachable, any changes that end users make to turn Mobile Connect off or on by way of Mobile
Voice Access or two-stage dialing are not saved.
• Enterprise feature access service parameters apply to standard phones and smartphones; however,
smartphones generally use on-touch keys to send the appropriate codes. Administrators must
configure any smartphones that will be used with Mobile Connect to use either the default codes for
enterprise feature access or the codes specified in the smartphone documentation.

System Requirements
Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access is supported with SCCP and TNP-based SIP Cisco Unified IP
Phones. The following software components are required.
• Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0.
• Cisco Unified Mobile Voice Access Service running on Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Publisher only.
• Cisco Unified Communications Manager Locale Installer (if you want to use non-English phone
locales or country-specific tones).

whether you are using PRI or not:
• Configuring a H.323 Gateway for System Remote Access Using PRI, page 24-19
• Configuring a H.323 Gateway for System Remote Access Using Hairpinning, page 24-21

Configuring a H.323 Gateway for System Remote Access Using PRI

If you already have an H.323 gateway configured in Cisco Unified Communications Manager, you can
use it to support system remote access. If you do not have an H.323 gateway, then you must add and
configure one. For more information, see the section on adding a Cisco IOS H.323 Gateway in the Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager Features and Services Guide

OL-12529-01 24-19
 Chapter 24 Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access
Configuring H.323 Gateways for Mobile Voice Access

Note When a Mobile Connect call is placed from an internal extension, only the internal extension is presented
as the caller ID. If an H.323 gateway is used, you can use translation patterns to address this issue.

To configure the gateway, follow these steps.

Procedure

Step 1 Configure the T1/E1 controller for PRI from PSTN.

Sample configuration:
• controller T1 1/0
• framing esf
• linecode b8zs
• pri-group timeslots 1-24
Step 2 Configure the serial interface for the PRI (T1/E1).
Sample configuration:
• interface Serial 1/0:23
• ip address none
• logging event link-status none
• isdn switch-type primary 4ess
• isdn incoming-voice voice
• isdn bchan-number-order ascending
• no cdp enable
Step 3 Load the VXML application from the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server (Publisher).
Sample configuration for IOS Version 12.3 (13) and later:
• application service CCM
• http://<Unified CM cluster Publisher IP Addr>:8080/ccmivr/pages/IVRMainpage.vxml
Sample configuration before IOS Version 12.3(12):
• call application voice Unified CM
• http://<Unified CM cluster Publisher IP Addr>:8080/ccmivr/pages/IVRMainpage.vxml

Note Although, VXML was added in Version 12.2(11), Versions 12.3(8), 12.3(9), 12.3(14)T1, and
12.2(15) have VXML issues and should not be used.

Step 4 Configure the dial-peer to associate Mobile Connect application with system remote access.
Sample configuration for IOS 12.3(13) and later:
• dial-peer voice 58888 pots
• service cmm
• incoming called-number 58888
• no digit-strip

Configuring H.323 Gateways for Mobile Voice Access

Sample configuration for IOS 12.3(12) and earlier:

• dial-peer voice 100 pots
• application CMM (Mobile Connect VXML application)
• incoming called-number 58888 (where 58888 is the Mobile Voice Access number)
• no digit-strip
Step 5 Add a dial-peer to transfer the calls to the Mobile Voice Access DN configured in Configuring Mobile
Voice Access Media Resources, page 24-19.
Sample configuration for primary Cisco Unified Communications Manager:
• dial-peer voice 101 voip
• preference 1
• destination-number <Mobile Voice Access DN>

Note If a generic dial-peer is already configured to terminate the calls and is consistent with the
Mobile Voice Access DN, then this step is not necessary.

• session target ipv4:10.1.30.3

• codec g711ulaw
• dtmf-relay h245-alphanumeric
• no vad
Sample configuration for secondary Cisco Unified Communications Manager (if needed):
• dial-peer voice 102 voip
• preference 2
• destination-number <Mobile Voice Access DN>

Note If a generic dial-peer already configured to terminate the calls and is consistent with the
Mobile Voice Access DN, then this step is not necessary.

• session target ipv4:10.1.30.4

• codec g711ulaw
• dtmf-relay h245-alphanumeric
• no vad

Configuring a H.323 Gateway for System Remote Access Using Hairpinning

If you do not have an H.323 gateway, and do not want to connect a separate PRI to H.323 gateway and
want to use H.323 gateway only to support System Remote Access, then you must add and configure
one. For more information, see the section on adding a Cisco IOS H.323 Gateway in the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Administration Guide.
