MultiVoice Gateway for the MAX— User’s Guide Preliminary November 23, 1998 6-17
This parameter defaults to the built-in maximum call volume. TAOS Release 7.0, supports
the following maximum number of voice calls for the MAX gateway.
Note: The built-in maximum call volumes used by this feature for each MAX platform is
defined (hardcoded) into the MultiVoice for the MAX software. These values do not reflect
actual call volumes achieved in either a testing or production environment.
Configuring local call progress tone processing
To configure local call progress tone processing on a MultiVoice Gateway:
1 Open the Ethernet > Mod Config > VOIP Options menu.
2 Set the Near End Cut Through parameter by pressing Enter to toggle between Yes and
No. For Example:
Ethernet
Mod Config
Near End Cut Through=Yes
This value defaults to Yes. Setting this value to No will cause the near end Gateway to
generate call progress tones, rather than passing the network tones from the PSTN.
Note: When NO is selected, callers may hear silence if no Q.931 messages are received
by the local MultiVoice Gateway
Using Near-end cut through
This feature provides answer supervision support for MAX gateways using non-PRI trunks, by
processing the call progress tones from the distant PSTN as either:
• Audio frames passed between two MAX gateways using RTP packets,
• Locally generating call progress tones from the Near End Gateway, based upon Q.931 call
processing messages.
This feature provides the following functionality:
• Pass-through of country specific call progress tones between MAX gateways using RTP
packets.
When a Far End Gateway receives call progress tones from the PSTN, the tones are stored
as audio frames, then transmitted across the IP network in RTP packets. Upon receiving
the RTP packets, the Near End Gateway decodes and sends these tones to the calling
end-point.
• The ability to enable/disable network tone cut-through on the Near End Gateway.
Network tone cut-through may be toggled on/off through the MAX menu. Disabling this
feature will cause the MAX gateway to ignore RTP audio signaling and have the Near End
