The generic, line, trunk, handset, RTP, DTMF,   announcement server and script packages are updates of packages fromRFC 2705 [38] with additional explanation and in some cases new   versions of these packages.  In addition to these, five new packages   are defined here.  These are the signal list, resource reservation,   media format, supplementary services and digit map extension   packages.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 2]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this   document are to be interpreted as described inBCP 14,RFC 2119 [31].1.1.  List of Packages   The basic set of packages specified in this document is for use with   MGCP 1.0 as defined in [1].  Included are the following packages:              -------------------------------------------             | Package                        |   Name   |             |-------------------------------------------|             | Generic Media Package          |   G      |             | DTMF package                   |   D      |             | Trunk Package                  |   T      |             | Line Package                   |   L      |             | Handset Package                |   H      |             | Supplementary Services Package |   SST    |             | Digit Map Extension            |   DM1    |             | Signal List Package            |   SL     |             | Media Format Package           |   FM     |             | RTP Package                    |   R      |             | Resource Reservation Package   |   RES    |             | Announcement Server Package    |   A      |             | Script Package                 |   Script |              -------------------------------------------1.2.  Changes to ExistingRFC 2705 Packages1.2.1.  Change in signal types   MGCP 1.0, as defined inRFC 2705 [38] (and now updated in [1]),   provided some additional clarification on the meaning of On-Off (OO)   signals compared to earlier versions of MGCP.  This lead to some   inconsistency in some of the signal definitions in the accompanying   packages inRFC 2705 [38].  This has been corrected in the packages   that are included here by changing some of the signals from type On-   Off to type Time-Out (TO).1.2.2.  Operation Complete and Operation Failure   Another change made to improve consistency and interoperability was   to add the "operation complete" and "operation failure" events in   packages where there are TO signals defined, but where the "operation   complete" and "operation failure" events were not previously included   as part of the package.  By definition, all packages that containFoster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 3]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Time-Out type signals now contain the "operation failure" ("of") and   "operation complete" ("oc") events as defined in [1], irrespective of   whether they are provided as part of the package description or not.   If a package without Time-Out signals contains definitions for the   "oc" and "of" events, the event definitions provided in the package   may over-ride those indicated here.  Such practice is however   discouraged and is purely allowed to avoid potential backwards   compatibility problems.   It is considered good practice to explicitly mention that the "oc"   and "of" events are supported in accordance with their default   definitions.  If no definition is included in the package, the   default syntax and semantics are assumed.   Please refer to [1] for additional details on these events.1.2.3.  Package Versions   The generic, line, trunk, handset, RTP, DTMF, announcement server and   script packages included in this document are new versions of   packages that were previously contained inRFC 2705 [38].  The   updated base MGCP 1.0 specification [1] provides an optional   capability of auditing package versions.  Any gateway that implements   versioned packages SHOULD also implement this option.1.2.4.  Event Definitions, Aliases and Interoperability Issues   Some event definitions or clarifications of previous event   definitions have also been added in order to improve   interoperability.   In some cases, events have aliases either in the same or in other   packages and a recommendation has been made for the use of alternates   by Call Agents for future implementations.  For maximum   interoperability, gateways MUST still implement these events (in fact   they MUST always implement all of the events, signals, etc. in a   package).   Some events that were previously defined require specific   provisioning in both the gateway and the Call Agent in order to allow   for interoperability.  In those cases, a warning to that affect has   been included.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 4]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 20031.2.5.  New Events   In some cases, new events have been added to existing packages.  Any   changes to existing packages of course have resulted in the package   version number being updated from unversioned (version 0) to version   1.1.3.  New Packages and Excluded Packages   Two packages fromRFC 2705 [38] have not been included.  These are   the "MF" and the "NAS" packages.  These packages are still valid as   are all unversioned (version 0) packages defined inRFC 2705 [38].   The reason these packages were not included are:      *  The original MF package had no defined way to outpulse MF         digits so that MF CAS is now provided by other packages (i.e.,         the "MS", "MO" and "MD" packages) in a separate document.      *  The "N" package, as defined inRFC 2705 [38], was incomplete.         A new MGCP "NAS" package has been developed and provided in a         separate document.   New packages have also been included beyond what was included inRFC2705 [38].  These are the signal list, resource reservation, media   format, supplementary services and digit map extension packages.  The   Resource Reservation ("RES") and Media Format ("FM") packages in   particular are different from other packages in this document in that   they contain new LocalConnectionOptions.  This is allowed by the new   extension rules in [1].  Future packages of this type MUST use a   packages prefix in front of local connection options ("<package-   name>/<Local Connection Option>") so as to avoid name-space problems.   However because of the timing of the arrival of these packages   relative to updating MGCP 1.0, this was not done for the "RES" and   "FM" packages.  The resulting new local connection options have been   registered with IANA.  For future cases where a package prefix is   included, only the package name needs to be registered.2.  Packages   For those packages that involve MGCP events, the terms "signal" and   "event" are used to differentiate a request from a Call Agent to a   Media Gateway to apply an event ("signal"), from the request for the   detection of an "event" that occurs on the Media Gateway and is   "Notified" to the Call Agent.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 5]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   For packages that involve events and signals, the tables contain five   columns:      Symbol:  the (package) unique symbol used to identify the event.      Definition:   a short description of the event.      R:  an x appears in this column if the event can be requested by      the Call Agent.  Alternatively, one or more of the following      symbols may appear.  An "S" is included if the event-state may be      audited.  A "C" indicates that the event can be detected on a      connection, and a "P" indicates the event is persistent.      S: if nothing appears in this column for an event, then the event      cannot be signaled by the Call Agent.  Otherwise, the following      symbols identify the type of event:         * OO     On/Off signal         * TO     Time-Out signal.         * BR     Brief signal.      In addition, a "C" will be included if the signal can be generated      on a connection.      Duration: specifies the default duration of TO signals.  If a      duration is left unspecified, then the default timeout will be      assumed to be infinite, unless explicitly noted in the description      of the signal.  A duration may also be declared as being variable      in a case where signals involve complex sequencing (e.g., scripts      or digit out-pulsing) where the amount of time may vary with      either processing time or the signaling environment.   Default time-out values may be over-ridden by the Call Agent for any   Time-Out event defined in this document (with the exception of those   that have a default value of "variable") by a "to" signal parameter   which specifies the timeout value in milliseconds (see [1]).  The   following example indicates a timeout value of 20 seconds:         S: sst/cw(to=20000)   As indicated in [1]: by default, a supplied time-out value MAY be   rounded to the nearest non-zero value divisible by 1000, i.e., whole   second.  However, individual signal definitions within a package may   define other rounding rules.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 6]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Note that Time-Out signals that involve other parameters still allow   the use of the "to" signal parameter e.g.:         S: T/sit(1,to=3000)   The order of the "to" parameter relative to the other parameters is   not important.   Note: as per [1], On-Off (OO) signals are parameterized with "+"   (meaning turn on) or "-" (meaning turn off).  If the parameter is   missing, the default is to turn on the signal.  Unlike Time-Out   signals, On-Off signals do not stop when an event occurs.   Other than the "to" parameter for Time-out (TO) signals and the "+"   and "-" for On-Off (OO) signals, signals and events in the packages   in this document do not have parameters unless explicitly indicated   in the description of the event for that package.   In some of the signal definitions below, specific tone definitions   are provided even though actual frequencies may vary from country to   country.2.1.  Generic Media Package   Package Name: G   Version: 1   The generic media package groups the events and signals that can be   observed on several types of endpoints, such as trunk gateway   endpoints, access gateway endpoints or residential gateway endpoints.    ---------------------------------------------------------------   | Symbol   |   Definition               |   R | S     Duration  |   |---------------------------------------------------------------|   | cf       |   Confirm Tone             |     | BR              |   | cg       |   Congestion Tone          |     | TO    infinite  |   | ft       |   Fax Tone                 |   x |                 |   | it       |   Intercept Tone           |     | TO    infinite  |   | ld       |   Long Duration Connection |   C |                 |   | mt       |   Modem Tone               |   x |                 |   | oc       |   Operation Complete       |   x |                 |   | of       |   Operation Failure        |   x |                 |   | pat(###) |   Pattern Detected         |   x | OO              |   | pt       |   Preemption Tone          |     | TO    infinite  |   | rbk(...) |   Ringback                 |     | TO,C 180 seconds|   | rt       |   Ringback Tone            |     | TO,C 180 seconds|    ---------------------------------------------------------------Foster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 7]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   New events added to this package from the previously unversioned   package: "oc"   Changes: "it" and "pt" signals changed from OO to TO.   Note that default time-out values may be over-ridden by the Call   Agent for any Time-Out signal defined in this package by a "to"   signal parameter.  Refer tosection 2 of this document, as well as   [1] for details.   The events and signals are defined as follows:   Confirmation Tone (cf):      This is also referred to as "positive indication tone" in ITU-T      E.182.  In North America, Confirmation Tone uses the same      frequencies and levels as dial tone (350 and 440 Hertz) but with a      cadence of 0.1 second on, 0.1 second off, repeated three times.      See GR-506-CORE [7]Section 17.2.4.  It is considered an error to      try and play confirmation tone on a phone that is on-hook and an      error MUST consequently be returned when such attempts are made      (error code 402 - phone on-hook).   Congestion Tone (cg):      Refer to ITU-T E.180 [8] and E.182 [10].  This maps to re-order      tone in North America (refer to GR-506-CORE [7]Section 17.2.7).   Fax Tone (ft):      The fax tone event is generated whenever a fax call is detected by      the presence of V.21 fax preamble.  The fax tone event SHOULD also      be generated when the T.30 CNG tone is detected.  See ITU-T      Recommendations T.30 [21] and V.21 [22].   Intercept Tone(it):      This is a country specific tone as defined in ITU-T E.180      Supplement 2 [9].   Long Duration Connection (ld):      The "long duration connection" is detected when a connection has      been established for more than a provisioned amount of time.  The      default value is 1 hour.      This event is detected on a connection.  When no connection is      specified as part of the request, the event applies to all      connections for the endpoint, regardless of when the connections      are created.  The "all connections" wildcard (see [1]) may also be      used for this case, and is in fact preferred for consistency.  InFoster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 8]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      either case, the name of the connection on which the event was      detected will be included when the event is observed, e.g.:         G/ld@0A3F58   Modem Tone (mt):      Indicates V.25 Answer tone (ANS) with or without phase reversals      or V.8 Modified Answer Tone (ANSam) tone with or without phase      reversals.  Note that this implies the presence of a data call.      Also note that despite the name of the event, devices other than      modems may generate such tones, e.g., a fax machine.   Operation Complete (oc):      The standard definition of operation complete [1].   Operation Failure (of):      The standard definition of operation failure [1].   Pattern Detected (pat(###)):      This event requires special provisioning that needs to be agreed      on between the Call Agent and media gateway in order to ensure      interoperability.  It is retained in order to maintain backwards      compatibility with version 0 of the "G" package.  This event MUST      be parameterized with a decimal numeric value from 0 to 999      specifying the pattern to detect.  When reported, the pattern is      also included as a parameter.   Preemption Tone (pt):      This is a country specific tone and is defined in ITU-T E.180      Supplement 2 [9].   Ringback (rbk(connectionID)):      This is an alias for "rt@connectionID" and is included here for      backwards compatibility only.  It is recommended that Call Agents      use "rt@connectionID" instead of "rbk(connectionID)" for ring-back      over a connection for new implementations.  Although the ringback      signal is applied on a connection, the "rbk" signal does not      support the "@connection" syntax.  When the signal is requested,      it MUST be parameterized with a connection-ID or a connection-ID      wildcard as specified in [1].   Ringback Tone (rt):      Refer to ITU-T E.180 [8] and ITU-T E.182 [10].  Also referred to      as ringing tone - a tone advising the caller that a connection has      been made and that a calling signal is being applied to the called      party or service point.  In North America, this tone is a      combination of two AC tones with frequencies of 440 and 480 Hertz      and levels of -19 dBm each, to give a combined level of -16 dBm.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                      [Page 9]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      The cadence for Audible Ring Tone is 2 seconds on, followed by 4      seconds off.  See GR-506-CORE [7] - LSSGR: SIGNALING,Section17.2.5.      This signal can be applied directly to an endpoint or      alternatively on a connection using the syntax "rt@connectionID".      When the ringback signal is applied to an endpoint, it is      considered an error to try and play ringback tone if the endpoint      is considered on-hook, and an error MUST consequently be returned      when such attempts are made (error code 402 - phone on-hook).      When the ringback signal is applied to a connection, no such check      is to be made.      Note that as specified in [1], signals requested on a connection      MUST be played regardless of the connection mode.  For example, in      a call-waiting situation, ringback tone may be played on a      connection in "inactive" mode.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 10]

Note that default time-out values may be over-ridden by the Call   Agent for any Time-Out signal defined in this package by a "to"   signal parameter.  Refer tosection 2 of this document, as well as   [1] for details.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 11]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   The events are defined as follows:   DTMF tones (0-9,#,*,A,B,C,D):      Detection and generation of DTMF tones is described in GR-506-CORE      [7] - LSSGR: SIGNALING,Section 15.  Note that it is considered an      error to try and play DTMF tones on a phone that is on-hook and an      error MUST consequently be returned when such attempts are made      (error code 402 - phone on-hook).  The event codes can be      specified in a digit map.  When requested as a signal, as per      GR-506-CORE [7], section 15, a minimum tone duration of 50 ms will      be followed by a minimum interdigit silence period of 45 ms, i.e.,      if requested in a signal list such as "S: sl/s(d/5,d/6,d/7)", then      interdigit timing requirements will be satisfied.      Note that some types of endpoints, such as announcement endpoints,      MAY allow detection and/or generation of a DTMF tone over a      connection.  However, this requires consistent provisioning      between the Call Agent and announcement server (it is not required      in order to be compliant with the DTMF package).   DTMF Tone Duration (dd(dg=<tone>,to=<time>,su=<TrueOrFalse>)):      This event can be used to indicate if/when the specified <tone>      has a duration greater than the <time> value indicated (and is      reported once the duration is exceeded).  The parameters can be      supplied in any order.  The value of <tone> can be any of the DTMF      tone symbols (without including the package name) specified in the      DTMF package (including X in the case of events, but not signals).      If this parameter is absent, any DTMF tone that occurs will be      reported.  The parameter <time> is in milli-seconds and may be      rounded to the nearest 10 ms by the gateway.  The minimum value of      <time> that can be requested when requesting an event is 40 ms.      When requesting a signal, the minimum value of <time> that can be      requested is 50 ms.  The maximum value of <time> that can be      requested for either an event or a signal is 60000 ms.  If the      "to=<time>" parameter is absent when requested as an event, the      event will report the full duration (up to 60000 ms) of the tone      when the tone is completed.  When reported as an ObservedEvent,      both parameters are always supplied.  In this case, <tone> is the      actual tone detected and <time> is either:         *  The <time> specified in the request (possibly rounded), or         *  If the request did not contain a "to=<time>" parameter, the            full duration of the tone.      The parameter "su" MAY be included when this is requested as an      event (but is not reported).  This parameter is used to indicate      whether or not the DTMF digits requested should be suppressedFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 12]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      in-band when it is requested.  Possible values are "true",      indicating that in-band DTMF should be suppressed and "false"      indicating that DTMF should continue to be passed in-band.  The      default value of the parameter, if missing, is "false".  The "su"      parameter MUST NOT be included when requesting "D/dd" as a signal.      When used as a signal, "dd" provides the ability to generate a      DTMF tone as a TO signal.  When applied as a signal, an additional      50 ms of silence will be tacked onto the end before the operation      complete occurs, i.e., "S: dd(dg=5,to=2500)" will play the DTMF      tone for the number "5" for 2.5 seconds, followed by 50 ms of      silence period.  The operation complete (if requested) will be      notified after the silence interval occurs.  Any value from 50 ms      to 60000 ms can be requested.  Gateways generating or detecting      the tone may round off the requested time to the nearest 10 ms.      The "dd" event can be used in place of the "long duration" event      in order to detect a digit pressed for longer than 2 seconds.  For      example, in order to detect if a user presses the long "#" for      longer than 2 seconds, a request could be made with the      RequestedEvents line "R: d/dd(N)(dg=#,to=2000)".  The resulting      ObservedEvents line would be "O: d/dd(dg=#,to=2000)".      Suppose instead, that the RequestedEvents line contains         R: d/[0-9*#],d/dd      Suppose the user then pushes the "#" for 2.5 seconds.  In this      case, two events will be notified:         O: d/#      when the "#" key is first pressed, and         O: d/dd(dg=#,to=2500)      when the "#" key is finally released.   DTMF OO Signal (do(dg=<tone>,<on-or-off>)):      This signal is used to generate a DTMF tone as an on-off signal.      The <tone> parameter is any of the symbols for a specific tone in      the DTMF package (i.e., "0" to "9", "A", "B", "C", "D", "*", or      "#").  The <on-or-off> indicator is "+" for on and "-" for off as      per [1].  The <tone> parameter MUST be supplied, otherwise a      return code of 538 - "Event/signal parameter error" will be      provided in the response.  If the <on-or-off> parameter is      missing, the default is to turn the signal on as usual (i.e., "+"      is the default).  The order of the parameters is not significantFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 13]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      since "+" and "-" are reserved characters and are easily      distinguished from the <tone> parameter.   Long Duration Indicator (l):      The "long duration indicator" is observed when a DTMF signal is      produced for a duration larger than two seconds.  In this case,      the gateway will detect two successive events: first, when the      signal has been recognized, the DTMF signal, and then, 2 seconds      later, the long duration signal.   Operation Complete (oc):      This is the standard definition of operation complete [1].   Operation Failure (of):      This is the standard definition of operation failure [1].   Timer (t):      Timer T can be used as an event or as a time-out (TO) signal.  As      a signal, its only behavior is the normal characteristics of a      "TO" signal as defined in [1] (i.e., if no event occurs before the      time-out, an operation complete event will be generated).      As an event, Timer T is a digit input timer that can be used in      two ways:         *  When timer T is used with the accumulate according to digit            map action, the timer is not started until the first DTMF            tone is entered, and the timer is restarted after each new            DTMF tone is entered until either a digit map match or            mismatch occurs.  In this case, timer T functions as an            inter-digit timer as illustrated by:               R: D/[0-9T](D)         *  When timer T is used without the "accumulate according to            digit map" action, the timer is started immediately and            simply cancelled (but not restarted) as soon as a DTMF tone            is entered.  In this case, timer T can be used as an inter-            digit timer when overlap sending is used, as in:               R: D/[0-9](N), D/T(N)      When used with the "accumulate according to digit map" action,      timer T takes on one of two values, T-partial or T-critical.  When      at least one more symbol is required for the "current dial string"      to match any one of the patterns in the digit map, timer T takes      on the value T-partial, corresponding to partial dial timing.  If      a timer is all that is required to produce a match, timer T takesFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 14]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      on the value T-critical corresponding to critical dial timing.      When timer T is used without the "accumulate according to digit      map" action, timer T takes on the value T-critical.  The default      value for T-partial is 16 seconds and the default value for      T-critical is 4 seconds.  The provisioning process may alter both      of these.  If timer T is not used, then inter-digit timing will      not be performed.      The following examples illustrate this.  Consider the digit map:         (xxxxxxx|x11T)      and assume that DTMF and the timer T is accumulated according to      digit map.  At the first DTMF input, say "4", timer T is started      with a value of T-partial since at least one more symbol is      required.  If "1" is then input, it leads to a restart of timer T      with a value of T-partial again.  If "1" is now input again, we      have a current dial string of "411" and a timer is now all that is      required to produce a match.  Hence timer T is now restarted with      value T-critical.      Finally, consider the following subtle examples (all assuming DTMF      and timer T being accumulated according to digit map):      The digit map         (1[2-3T].)      will match immediately on the input "1" since zero or more matches      of the range are specified.      The digit map         (1[2-3].T)      and an input of "1" will lead to timer T being set to T-critical.      A digit map of         (1[2-3]T.)      and an input of "1" will lead to timer T being set to T-partial.      Furthermore, upon subsequent input of "2" or "3" a perfect match      will be triggered immediately since timer T is completely      irrelevant.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 15]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   DTMF Tones Wildcard (X):      The DTMF tones wildcard matches any DTMF digit between 0 and 9.      The actual event code generated will however be the event code for      the digit detected.  The DTMF tones wildcard is often used to      detect DTMF input to be matched against a digit map.2.3.

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Note that default time-out values may be over-ridden by the Call   Agent for any Time-Out signal defined in this package by a "to"   signal parameter.  Refer tosection 2 of this document, as well as   [1] for details.   The definition of the trunk package events are as follows:   Answer Supervision (as):      This event is used to indicate the occurrence answer supervision.      In most cases, it is a result of a steady off-hook in response to      a call request.  This event is included for backwards      compatibility with the previous version of the package.  The      preferred alternative is to use the "answer" event in the      appropriate CAS packages [34] (Note: check the details on the use      of "answer" in the particular CAS package; in most cases "answer"      as an event is an indication of a steady off-hook regardless of      whether or not it is an indication of answer supervision).  For      details on when answer supervision is appropriate refer to [5].   Blocking (bl):      This event is used to indicate an incoming off-hook for the      purposes of blocking a one-way trunk in CAS trunks.  This event is      included for backwards compatibility with the previous version of      the package.  The preferred alternative is the "block" event in      the appropriate CAS packages [34].   Busy Tone (bz):      Refer to ITU-T E.180 [8].  In North America, station Busy is a      combination of two AC tones with frequencies of 480 and 620 Hertz      and levels of -24 dBm each, to give a combined level of -21 dBm.      The cadence for Station Busy Tone is 0.5 seconds on, followed by      0.5 seconds off, then repeating.  See GR-506-CORE [7]- LSSGR:      SIGNALING,Section 17.2.6.   Continuity Tone (co1):      A tone at 2010 Hz (see section 3.1.1.3 of [2]).  When generated as      a signal, the frequency of the tone must be within + or - 8 Hz,      while the frequency of the tone corresponding to the event must be      within + or - 30 Hz.   Continuity Test (co2):      A tone at 1780 Hz (see section 3.1.1.3 of [2]).  When generated as      a signal, the frequency of the tone must be within + or - 20 Hz,      while the frequency of the tone corresponding to the event must be      within + or - 30 Hz.      In continuity testing the tone corresponding to the signal at the      originating gateway is referred to as the "go" tone, and the toneFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 17]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      corresponding to the event at that same gateway is referred to as      the "return" or "check" tone.      Note that generation and notification of continuity tones are done      as per continuity test requirements as defined in ITU-T Q.724 [3],      as well as by Bellcore GR-317-CORE [2] specifications, i.e., the      semantics of notification of the return tone is more than that the      tone was received, but is an indication that the test has passed.      Details are provided in the following paragraphs.      The continuity tones represented by co1 and co2 are used when the      Call Agent wants to initiate a continuity test.  There are two      types of tests, single tone and dual tone; In the case of the dual      tone, either tone can be sent and the opposite received depending      on the trunk interconnections (4-wire or 2-wire) as indicated      below:         Originating                               Terminating         ============                              ===========            4w   -------------- 1780 Hz ----------->  2w                 <------------- 2010 Hz ------------  (transponder)            2w   -------------- 2010 Hz ----------->  2w/4w                 <------------- 1780 Hz ------------  (transponder)            4w   -------------- 2010 Hz ----------->  4w                 <------------- 2010 Hz ------------  (loopback)      The Call agent is expected to know, through provisioning      information, which test should be applied to a given endpoint.  As      an example, for a 4-wire to 2-wire connection, the Call Agent      might send a request like the following to an originating gateway:         RQNT 1234 ds/ds1-1/17@tgw2.example.net         X: AB123FE0         S: t/co1         R: t/co2,t/oc,t/of      On a terminating side of a trunk, the call agent may request a      continuity test connection (connection mode "conttest") to the      terminating gateway as follows:         CRCX 3001 ds/ds1-2/4@tgw34.example.net         C: 3748ABC364         M: conttestFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 18]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      Alternatively, rather than using a connection mode, the "T/ct"      signal can be used (see description of this signal further below):         RQNT 3001 ds/ds1-2/4@tgw34.example.net         X: 1233472         S: t/ct(in=co1,out=co2,+)      The originating gateway would send the requested "go" tone, and      would look for the appropriate "return tone".  Once the return      tone is received, the originating gateway removes the go tone and      checks to see that the return tone has been removed within the      specified performance limits (i.e., GR-246-CORE, T1.113.4, Annex B      [23]).  When it detects that the test is successful, the gateway      will send a notification of the return tone event (Note that      notification of the return tone event therefore must not be sent      prior to detection of the removal of the return tone).      The "T/co1" and "T/co2" signals are TO signals so that an      operation complete event will occur when the signal times out.  If      a timeout value other than the default is desired, the "to"      parameter may be used (e.g., "S: T/co1(to=2000)").      If the gateway detects the failure of the continuity test prior to      the timeout, an operation failure event will be generated.      Otherwise, the failure of the continuity test is determined by the      failure to receive the return tone event before the timeout occurs      (operation complete event).  As with TO signals in general,      operation complete and operation fail events are parameterized      with the name of the signal.      In the example above where the go tone is "co1" and the return      tone is "co2":         *  A notification of the "co2" event indicates success (i.e.,            "O: t/co2").         *  A notification of the operation failure event indicates            failure prior to timeout (i.e., "O: t/of(t/co1)").         *  A notification of the operation complete event indicates            that the return tone was not received properly prior to the            occurrence of the timeout (i.e., "O: t/oc(t/co2)").      On a terminating end of a trunk, either a "loopback" connection      (single tone test) or "conttest" connection (dual tone test) is      made (or alternatively the "T/lb" or "T/ct" signals are      requested).  It is up to the termination end to make sure that the      return tone is removed as soon as the go tone disappears.  TheFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 19]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      Call Agent requests the removal of "contest" or "loopback"      connections (or "T/lb" or "T/ct" signals) at a termination end      when the results of the continuity test are obtained.      When "conttest" is used, the endpoint is provisioned as to which      transponder test is being performed (2010 Hz received and 1780 Hz      sent or vice versa).  In the case of the corresponding "T/ct"      signal, the Call Agent can specify which tone is received and sent      as parameters.      Note that continuity tones in the trunk package are only ever sent      to the telephony endpoint.  For network-based continuity, there      are continuity tones available in the RTP ("R") package.  Although      a transponder (dual tone) test can be done, a single tone test is      generally sufficient in the case of continuity testing across an      IP network.   Continuity Transponder(ct(in=<tone-in>,out=<tone-out>, <+ or ->)):      This signal is used to provide transponder functionality      independent of the connection mode, i.e., this is an alternative      way to provide the same functionality as the "conttest" connection      mode.  The parameters can be provided in any order.  The <tone-in>      and <tone-out> parameters can have values "co1" or "co2",      corresponding to the 2010 Hz and 1780 Hz tones associated with      those symbols.  If one of the tones is "co1", then the other must      be "co2" and vice versa (i.e., <tone-in> and <tone-out> must have      different values; if loopback is required, then the "lb" signal in      this package or "loopback" connection mode should be used).      On detecting <tone-in>, <tone-out> will be generated in return.      The tone corresponding to <tone-out> will continue to be generated      until either:         *  The signal is explicitly turned off (e.g., "S: t/ct(-)") or         *  Removal of the <tone-in> tone is detected.      Note that while the signal is active (regardless of whether a tone      is active or not), media from the endpoint will not be forwarded      to or from the packet network (i.e., the continuity transponder      signal must be explicitly turned off by the Call Agent in order to      resume passing media between the packet network and the endpoint).   Loopback (lb):      This signal is used to provide loopback functionality independent      of the connection mode, i.e., this is an alternative way to      provide the same functionality as "loopback" connection mode.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 20]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      Note that while the loop-back signal is active (regardless of      whether a tone is active or not), media from the endpoint will not      be forwarded to or from the packet network (i.e., the loopback      signal must be explicitly turned off by the Call Agent in order to      resume passing media between the packet network and the endpoint).   New Milliwatt Tone (nm):      1004 Hz tone - refer to [4] and section 8.2.5 of [5].   Newest Milliwatt Tone (mm):      1013.8 Hz - refer to [4].   Operation Complete (oc):      This is the standard definition of operation complete [1].   Operation Failure (of):      This is the standard definition of operation failure [1].   Old Milliwatt Tone (om):      1000 Hz tone - refer to [4] and section 8.2.5 of [5].   Permanent Signal Tone (pst):      In North America, this tone is applied to a busy line      verify/operator interrupt under specific circumstances as      described in [17].   Quiet Termination (qt):      Quiet Termination is used in a 102 trunk test.  Referencesection6.20.5 [5] as well as [4].   Reorder Tone(ro):      This maps to congestion tone in the ITU-T E.182 specification.  In      North America, reorder tone is a combination of two AC tones with      frequencies of 480 and 620 Hertz and levels of -24 dBm each, to      give a combined level of -21 dBm.  The cadence for reorder tone is      0.25 seconds on, followed by 0.25 seconds off, repeating      continuously (until time-out).  See GR-506-CORE [7],Section17.2.7.   Special Information Tone(sit(#)):      As described in ITU-T E.180 [8], the special information tone      consists of a tone period in which 3 tones are produced followed      by a silent period of 1 second (total TO period of approximately 2      seconds).  When used as a signal, it MUST be parameterized with a      parameter value from 1 to 7, with the following meaning as defined      in SR-2275, section 6.21.2 of [5].Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 21]

The resulting notification also includes the      parameter.  Other countries may have one or more special      information tones with country specific definitions (refer to      ITU-T E.180 supp. 2 [9]).  In this case, special information tone      1 as defined in [9] is sit(1), special information tone 2 is      sit(2) etc.      As an example, the Call Agent might make a request such as:          RQNT 1234 ds/ds1-1/17@tgw2.example.net          X: AB123FE0          R: t/sit(N)(2)      If the tone is detected, the resulting notification might appear      as follows:          NTFY 3002 ds/ds1-3/6@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0          X: AB123FE0          O: t/sit(2)   Test Line (tl):      105 Test Line test progress tone (2225 Hz + or - 25 Hz at -10      dBm0).  Refer to section 8.2.5 of [5].   Test Pattern (tp(###)):      The tp(###) signal inserts the pattern ### continuously into the      channel until the timeout period expires.  The parameter is      provided as a decimal number from 0 to 255.  If the parameter is      omitted, the default value is decimal 95.      In RequestedEvents, the parameter MAY be supplied to indicate what      pattern the Call Agent wishes the gateway to detect.  If the      parameter is omitted, the value 95 is assumed.  The pattern MUST      be returned in the ObservedEvent (even if the parameter was not      requested).Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 22]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      A typical use for the test pattern signal is for the test line 108      (digital loopback) test (refer to section 8.2.5 of [5]).  At the      termination side of a trunk, the Call Agent would request a      connection in "loopback" mode, which would do a digital loopback.      On the origination side of the trunk, the Call Agent would request      that the test pattern be injected into the digital channel, and      would check to see that the pattern was returned within the      timeout period.  As an example, the Call Agent would make the      following request on the origination side:         RQNT 1234 ds/ds1-1/17@tgw2.example.net         X: AB123FE0         S: t/tp         R: t/tp, t/oc, t/of      In this case the Call Agent will either receive:         *  An ObservedEvent indicating that the test has passed (i.e.,            "O:t/op(95)") or         *  An ObservedEvent indicating that the timeout occurred before            the pattern was received (i.e., "O:t/oc(t/tp)"), indicating            that the test failed.  Of course an operation failure would            indicate failure as well.

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Changes in event types: signals "y", "z", changed from OO to TO and   BR respectively.  Ringing tones were extended to allow for a ring   repetition signal parameter.   Note that default time-out values may be over-ridden by the Call   Agent for any Time-Out signal defined in this package by a "to"   signal parameter.  Refer tosection 2 of this document, as well as   [1] for details.   The description of events and signals in the line package are as   follows:   ADSI Display (adsi):      This signal is included here to maintain compatibility with the      previous version of this package.  The signal is not well-defined      and its use is discouraged.   Answer Tone (aw):      This event is included here to maintain compatibility with the      previous version of this package.  The event is not well-defined      and its use is discouraged.   Busy Tone (bz):      Refer to ITU-T E.180 [8].  In North America, station Busy is a      combination of two AC tones with frequencies of 480 and 620 Hertz      and levels of -24 dBm each, to give a combined level of -21 dBm.      The cadence for Station Busy Tone is 0.5 seconds on followed by      0.5 seconds off, repeating.  See GR-506-CORE [7], Section 17.2.6.      It is considered an error to try and play busy tone on a phone      that is on-hook and an error MUST consequently be returned when      such attempts are made (error code 402 - phone on-hook).   Caller-id (ci(time, number, name)):      See GR-1188 [24], GR-30-CORE [14], and GR-31 [25].  For backwards      compatibility, each of the three fields are optional, but each of      the commas will always be included.  In accordance with the      general MGCP grammar, it is RECOMMENDED to always include all      three fields - an empty quoted string can then be used in lieu of      omitting a parameter:      The time parameter is coded as "MM/DD/HH/MM", where MM is a two-      digit decimal value for a Month between 01 and 12, DD is a two-      digit value for a Day between 01 and 31, and Hour and Minute are      two-digit values coded according to military local time, e.g., 00      is midnight, 01 is 1 a.m., and 13 is 1 p.m.  (Note: two digits      MUST always be provided for each of the values of month, day,      hour, minutes e.g., the month of January is indicated by the two      digits "01" rather than just "1").Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 25]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      The number parameter is coded as an ASCII character string of      decimal digits that identify the calling line number.  White      spaces are permitted if the string is quoted, but they will be      ignored.  If a quoted-string is provided, the string itself is      UTF-8 encoded (RFC 2279) as usual for signal parameters.      The name parameter is coded as a string of ASCII characters that      identify the calling line name.  White spaces are permitted if the      string is quoted.  If a quoted-string is provided, the string      itself is UTF-8 encoded (RFC 2279).      A "P" in the number or name field is used to indicate a private      number or name, and an "O" is used to indicate an unavailable      number or name.  Other letters MAY be used to provide additional      clarification as per provider or vendor specifications.      The following example illustrates the use of the caller-id signal:         S: l/ci(09/14/17/26, "555 1212", "John Doe")      An example indicating that the name and number are private:         S: l/ci(09/14/17/26,P,P)   Dial Tone (dl):      Refer to the ITU-T E.180 [8] specification.  In North America,      dial tone is a combination of two continuous AC tones with      frequencies of 350 and 440 Hertz and levels of -13dBm each, to      give a combined level of -10 dBm.  See GR-506-CORE [7] - LSSGR:      SIGNALING,Section 17.2.1.  It is considered an error to try and      play dial-tone on a phone that is on-hook and an error MUST      consequently be returned when such attempts are made (error code      402 - phone on-hook).   Error Tone (e):      This tone is maintained for backwards compatibility.  The tone is      not well defined and its use is discouraged.   Off-hook Transition (hd):      See GR-506-CORE [7], Section 12.  It is considered an error to try      and request off-hook on a phone that is off-hook and an error MUST      consequently be returned when such attempts are made (error code      401 - phone off-hook).Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 26]

It is considered an error to try      and request flash hook on a phone that is on-hook and an error      MUST consequently be returned when such attempts are made (error      code 402 - phone on-hook).   Tone On Hold (ht):      A tone used to reassure a calling subscriber who has been placed      on "hold".  Refer to ITU-T E.182 [10].   On-hook Transition (hu):      See GR-506-CORE [7], Section 12.  The timing for the on-hook      signal is for flash response enabled, unless provisioned      otherwise.  It is considered an error to try and request flash      hook on a phone that is on-hook and an error MUST consequently be      returned when such attempts are made (error code 402 - phone on-      hook).   Line Side Answer Supervision (lsa):      This provides Reverse Loop Current Feed (RLCF) on the line (refer      to GR-506-CORE [7]) and is a way of indicating that the called      party has answered for some line-side equipment.   Message Waiting Indicator (mwi):      Message Waiting indicator tone uses the same frequencies and      levels as dial tone (350 and 440 Hertz at -13dBm each), but with a      cadence of 0.1 second on, 0.1 second off, repeated 10 times,      followed by steady application of dial tone.  See GR-506-CORE [7],      Section 17.2.3.  It is considered an error to try and play      message-waiting indicator on a phone that is on-hook and an error      MUST consequently be returned when such attempts are made (error      code 402 - phone on-hook).   Network Busy (nbz):      This is included here to maintain compatibility with the previous      version of this package.  The "nbz" signal is an alias for re-      order tone signal("ro").  Future Call Agent implementations that      require a network busy signal should use the "ro" signal.  It is      also recommended that future Call Agents not request to be      notified of the "nbz" event (a network busy event is generally not      required in a line package; hence, "ro" is only a signal, not an      event).   Operation Complete (oc):      This is the standard definition of operation complete [1].   Operation Failure (of):      This is the standard definition of operation failure [1].Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 27]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Network Disconnect (osi):      Network Disconnect indicates that the far-end party has      disconnected.  The signal that is sent on the line is provisioned      in the media gateway since it may vary from country to country.      In North America, this signal is an open switch interval which      results in a Loop Current Feed Open Signal (LCFO) being applied to      the line (refer to GR-506-CORE [7], see also See GR-505-CORE [6],      Section 4.5.2.1).  The default time-out value for this signal is      900 ms.   Off-hook Warning Tone (ot):      Off-hook warning tone, also known as receiver Off-Hook Tone (ROH      Tone).  This is the irritating noise a telephone makes when it is      not hung up correctly.  In North America, ROH Tone is generated by      combining four tones at frequencies of 1400 Hertz, 2060 Hertz,      2450 Hertz and 2600 Hertz, at a cadence of 0.1 second on, 0.1      second off, then repeating.  GR-506-CORE [7], Section 17.2.8      contains details about required power levels.  It is considered an      error to try and play off-hook warning tone on a phone that is      on-hook, and an error MUST consequently be returned when such      attempts are made (error code 402 - phone on-hook).   Prompt Tone (p):      The definition of the prompt tone and its use may be found in      requirement GR-220 [20].  The tone in GR-220 (requirement "R3-170"      or GR-220) is a 300 ms burst of a 400 Hz tone.   Ringing (rg):      See GR-506-CORE [7], Section 14.  The provisioning process may      define the ringing cadence.  The ringing signal may be      parameterized with the signal parameter "rep" which specifies the      maximum number of ringing cycles (repetitions) to apply.  The      value for "rep" is specified in decimal and can have any value      from 1 to 255.  The following will apply the ringing signal for up      to 6 ringing cycles:         S: l/rg(rep=6)      If the "rep" parameter is specified, the signal times-out when the      number of repetitions are completed (i.e., an operation complete      event can be requested and will occur at the end of the      timeout/number of rings).      If the "rep" parameter is supplied, then any timeout ("to") value      that is included will be ignored, i.e.:         S: l/rg(rep=6,to=12000)Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 28]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      will be treated the same as the previous example where the      parameter "to=12000" was not included.  Of course, if the "to"      parameter is included without the "rep", it will be acted upon      i.e.:         S: l/rg(to=12000)      will ring for 12 seconds.      It is considered an error to try and ring a phone that is off-hook      and an error MUST consequently be returned when such attempts are      made (error code 401 - phone off-hook).   Distinctive Ringing (r0, r1, r2, r3, r4, r5, r6 or r7):      See GR-506-CORE [7], Section 14.  Default values for r1 to r5 are      as defined for distinctive ringing pattern 1 to 5 in GR-506-CORE      [7].  The default values for r0, r6 and r7 are normal ringing      (i.e., the same cadence "rg").  The provisioning process may      define the ringing cadence for each of these signals.  The      distinctive ringing signals may be parameterized with the signal      parameter "rep" which specifies the maximum number of ringing      cycles (repetitions) to apply.  The value for "rep" is specified      in decimal and can have any value from 1 to 255.      The following will apply the ringing signal for up to 6 ringing      cycles:         S: l/r1(rep=6)      If the "rep" parameter is specified, the signal times-out when the      number of repetitions are completed (i.e., an operation complete      event can be requested and will occur at the end of the      timeout/number of rings)      If the "rep" parameter is supplied, then any timeout ("to") value      that is included will be ignored, i.e.:         S: l/r1(rep=6,to=12000)      will be treated the same as the previous example where the      parameter "to=12000" was not included.  Of course, if the "to"      parameter is included without the "rep", it will be acted upon      i.e.:         S: l/r1(to=12000)      will ring for 12 seconds.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 29]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      It is considered an error to try and ring a phone that is off-hook      and an error MUST consequently be returned when such attempts are      made (error code 401 - phone off-hook).   Reorder Tone (ro):      This maps to congestion tone in the ITU-T E.182 [10]      specification.  In North America, reorder tone is a combination of      two AC tones with frequencies of 480 and 620 Hertz, and levels of      -24 dBm each, to give a combined level of -21 dBm.  The cadence      for reorder tone is 0.25 seconds on, followed by 0.25 seconds off,      repeating continuously.   Ringsplash (rs):      Also known as "Reminder ring", this tone is a burst of ringing      that may be applied to the physical forwarding line (when idle) to      indicate that a call has been forwarded and to remind the user      that a Call Forward sub-feature is active.  In the US, it is      defined to be a 0.5(-0,+0.1) second burst of power ringing (see      [11]).   Distinctive Tone Pattern (s(###)):      This is used to signal or detect a tone pattern defined by the      parameter where the parameter may have a value from 0 to 999.      When specified as an event, the parameter MUST be included.  The      parameter will also be included when the event is reported.  This      event (the definition of tones associated with each parameter      value) requires special provisioning in the Call Agent and gateway      to insure interoperability.  This signal is included here to      maintain compatibility with the previous version of this package.   Special Information Tone(sit(#)):      As described in ITU-T E.180 [8], the special information tone      consists of a tone period in which 3 tones are produced, followed      by a silent period of 1 second (total TO period of approximately 2      seconds).  It MAY be parameterized with a parameter value from 1      to 7, with the following meaning as defined in SR-2275,section6.21.2 [5]:             -------------------------------------------            | sit(1) | RO' | reorder SIT, intra-LATA    |            | sit(2) | RO" | reorder SIT, inter-LATA    |            | sit(3) | NC' | no circuit SIT, intra-LATA |            | sit(4) | NC" | no circuit SIT, inter-LATA |            | sit(5) | IC  | intercept SIT              |            | sit(6) | VC  | vacant code SIT            |            | sit(7) | IO  | ineffective other SIT      |             -------------------------------------------Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 30]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      If the parameter is left out, the NC' SIT tone that corresponds to      the signal "L/sit(3)" is assumed.      Other countries may have one or more special information tones      with country specific definitions (refer to ITU-T E.180 supp. 2      [9]).  In this case, special information tone 1 as defined in [9]      is sit(1), special information tone 2 is sit(2) etc.   Stutter Dial Tone (sl):      Stutter Dial Tone (also called Recall Dial Tone in GR-506-CORE [7]      and "special dial tone" in ITU-T E.182 [10]) is used to confirm      some action and request additional input from the user.  An      example application is to cancel call-waiting, prior to entering a      destination address.      The stutter dial tone signal may be parameterized with the signal      parameter "del", which will specify a delay in milliseconds to      apply between the confirmation tone and the dial tone.  The      parameter can have any value from 0 to 10000 ms, rounded to the      nearest non-zero value divisible by 100 (i.e., tenth of a second).      The following will apply stutter dial tone with a delay of 1.5      seconds between the confirmation tone and the dial tone:         S: l/sl(del=1500)      It is considered an error to try and play stutter dial tone on a      phone that is on-hook and an error MUST consequently be returned      when such attempts are made (error code 402 - phone on-hook).   Alerting Tone (v):      A 440 Hz Tone of a 2 second duration, followed by a 1/2 second of      tone every 10 seconds.  This event is included for backwards      compatibility with the previous version of the package.   Visual Message Waiting Indicator (vmwi):      The transmission of the VMWI messages will conform to the      requirements in [13] and the CPE guidelines in [12].  Refer also      tosection 6.6 of GR-30-CORE [14].  VMWI messages will only be      sent from the gateway to the attached equipment when the line is      idle.  If new messages arrive while the line is busy, the VMWI      indicator message will be delayed until the line goes back to the      idle state.  After the gateway restarts, the state of the signal      will be "off", and hence the Call Agent MUST refresh the CPE's      visual indicator if it is supposed to be "on".Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 31]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Alternative Call Waiting Tones (wt, wt1, .., wt4):      Refer to ITU-T E.180 [8].  For North American tone definitions,      refer to GR-506-CORE [7], Section 14.2.  "wt" and "wt1" are both      aliases for the default Call Waiting tone, which in North America,      is a 440-Hz tone applied for 300 plus or minus 50 ms.  The tone is      then repeated once after 10 seconds.      These signals are timeout signals with a default timeout value of      12 seconds, which allows the tone to be played twice with a single      request (refer to GR-571-CORE [16]).  However, there are cases      (Requirement R3-73 of GR-575-CORE [18]), in which only a single      tone is required.  In that case, the Call Agent may make the      request with a shorter timeout period to eliminate the second tone      (e.g., "S: wt(to=2000)" - which stops the signal after 2 seconds      so that the second tone will not occur).      Signals wt2, wt3 and wt4 are alternates that are used for      distinctive call-waiting tone patterns (refer to GR-506-CORE,Section 14.2 [7].  It is considered an error to try and apply      call-waiting tone on a phone that is on-hook and an error MUST      consequently be returned when such attempts are made (error code      402 - phone on-hook).   Recorder Warning Tone(y):      Refer to ITU-T E.180 [8] - also Bellcore document SR-2275 [5]section 6.20.  When recording equipment is used, this tone is      connected to the line to inform the distant party that the      conversation is being recorded  - typical value used is a 1400 Hz      Tone of a 0.5 second duration every 15 seconds.   Calling Card Service Tone(z):      This tone is used to inform the customer that credit card      information must be keyed in.  Typically, it consists of 60 ms of      941 + 1477 Hz (the DTMF #digit) and 940 ms of 350 + 440 Hz (dial      tone), decaying exponentially with a time constant of 200 ms.

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Changes from the original package - are the same changes as were made   for the line package, plus "hu" and "hd" signal types were changed   from OO to BR.   Event definitions are the same as for the line package with the   following exceptions:   ASDI:      When requested as an event by the Call Agent, the event is not      parameterized.  However, the parameter is included when the event      is reported.   Caller-id:      When requested as an event by the Call Agent, the event MUST not      be parameterized.  However, parameters are included when the event      is reported i.e.:         O: l/ci(09/14/17/26,"555 1212","John Doe")   Line Side Answer Supervision:      When requested as an event by the Call Agent, it indicates when      the reverse loop current feed (RLCF) was turned on and off.  The      event is not parameterized when it is requested.  However, a      parameter is included when it is reported i.e.:         O: l/lsa(+) to indicate RLCF was turned on         O: l/lsa(-) to indicate RLCF was turned off   Ringing (rg):      When requested as an event, the Call Agent may optionally include      the rep parameter indicating a request to report after some number      of rings e.g.:         RQNT 1234 aaln/1@rgw2.example.net         X: AB123FE0         R: h/rg(N)(rep=3)      The resulting notification after the number of rings is detected      includes the parameter again:         NTFY 3002 ds/ds1-3/6@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0         X: AB123FE0         O: h/rg(rep=3)      If the parameter is not included in the request, it is also not      included in the report.  In that case, the event is reported as      soon as ringing is detected.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 34]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Distinctive Ringing (r0, r1, r2, r3, r4, r5, r6 or r7):      As with the "rg" event, if the "rep" parameter is included when      one of these is requested as an event, it is also reported.  If it      is not requested with the parameter, then the parameter is also      not included in the report.  In that case, the event is reported      as soon as ringing with the requested cadence is detected.   Stutter Dial Tone (sl):      Stutter Dial Tone MUST not be parameterized when requested as an      event.  However, the "del" parameter is reported.         RQNT 1234 aaln/1@rgw2.example.net         X: AB123FE0         R: h/sl      The resulting notification indicates the delay between the      confirmation tone and the dial tone:         NTFY 3002 ds/ds1-3/6@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0         X: AB123FE0         O: h/sl(del=1500)      As with the signal, the report indicates the delay rounded to the      nearest 100 ms.   Visual Message Waiting:      When requested as an event by the Call Agent, it indicates when      the visual message waiting indicator was turned on and off.  The      event is not parameterized when it is requested.  However, a      parameter is included when it is reported i.e.:         O: l/vmwi(+) to indicate message waiting turned on         O: l/vmwi(-) to indicate message waiting turned off   Note that:      *  All TO signals in the handset package can include a "to"         parameter when requested as a signal.      *  However, requests to be notified about these events MUST NOT         include the "to" parameter, i.e., the "to" parameter is not         valid in RequestedEvents.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 35]

Refer tosection 2 of this document, as well as   [1] for details.   The events in this package are defined as follows:   Conference Depart(cd):      Tone used to indicate that a participant has left a conference      call.  The tone characteristics are left to the specific gateway      implementation.   Conference Join (cj):      Tone used to indicate that a party has joined a conference call.      The tone characteristics are left to the specific gateway      implementation.   Comfort Tone (cm):      Comfort Tone is used to indicate that the call is being processed      and that the caller should wait.  Refer to ITU-T E.182 [10].   Caller Waiting Tone (cw):      Not to be confused with a call-waiting tone, this is a tone      advising a caller that a called station, though busy, has a call      waiting service active.  Refer to ITU-T E.182 [10].Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 36]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Tone on-hold (ht):      A tone used to reassure a calling subscriber who has been placed      on "hold".  Refer to ITU-T E.182 [10].   Negative Indication (ni):      A tone advising a subscriber that the request for service cannot      be accepted.  Refer to ITU-T E.182 [10].  For North America, this      maps to the re-order tone (see GR-506-CORE [7], Section 17.2.7).   Number Unobtainable Tone (nu):      Refer to ITU-T E.180, supplement 2 [9].  This is also referred to      as "vacant tone" and maps to a "re-order tone" in North America      (see GR-506-CORE [7], Section 17.2.7).   Operation Complete (oc):      The standard definition of operation complete [1].   Operation Failure (of):      The standard definition of operation failure [1].   Pay Phone Recognition (pr):      A tone advising an operator that the endpoint is identified as a      payphone.  Refer to ITU-T E.182 [10].   Pay Tone (pt):      A tone indicating that payment is required.  Refer to ITU-T E.182      [10].2.7.  Digit Map Extension   Package Name: dm1  ("dm" followed by the number "1")   Version: 0   Extension Digit Map Letters: P   This package defines an Extension Digit Map Letter that is used to   override the shortest possible match behavior for a given entry in a   digit map (see [1]).  The letter "P" (for partial match override), at   the end of a digit map entry, instructs the gateway to only consider   that entry a match if the current dial string does not partially   match another entry.  For example, given the digit map      ([3-7]11|123xxxxxxx|[1-7]xxxxxxP|8xxxP)   and a current dial string of "1234567", we would not consider this a   match (as the rules in [1] would otherwise imply); however a current   dial string of "411" would be considered a match as usual.  A current   dial string of "8234" would be considered a match since there is no   other partial match.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 37]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Note that the digit map letter "P" is not an event, but simply a   syntactic and semantic digit map extension.  Thus, the "P" is not   included in the list of requested or observed events.   Support for this package is strongly RECOMMENDED.2.8.  Signal List Package   Package Name: SL   Version: 0    ---------------------------------------------------------   | Symbol  |   Definition             |  R  | S   Duration |   |---------------------------------------------------------|   | oc      |  Operation Complete      |  x  |              |   | of      |  Operation Failure       |  x  |              |   | s(list) |  Signal List             |     | TO  variable |    ---------------------------------------------------------   Operation Complete (oc):      This is the standard definition of operation complete from [1].   Operation Failure (of):      This is the standard definition of operation failure from [1].   Signal List(s(<list>)):      The <list> contains a comma-separated list of signals to be played      out.  Each of the signals in <list> MUST be either of type BR or      type TO.  Semantically, the signal list is still treated as a      single parameterized signal of type Time-Out though.  The signals      in the list are played to completion one after the other in the      left to right order specified.  The package for each signal in the      list must be specified.  For example, to play out the DTMF digits      123456:         S: sl/s(d/1,d/2,d/3,d/4,d/5,d/6)      This will result in the DTMF digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 being      played out in order.      It is illegal to include an OO signal as one of the signals in the      list or to request recursive definitions (signal lists within      signal lists).  If this or any other unsupported signal is      included, error code 538 (event/signal parameter error) MUST be      returned by the gateway.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 38]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      Note that as the gateway plays the ordered list of signals, if it      encounters a TO signal with an infinite timeout, it will continue      to play that signal until the Signal List signal is stopped (i.e.,      other signals later in the list will never be played).      If the operation complete ("oc") event is requested, it will be      detected once, when the last signal in the list has been played      out (regardless of whether there are any TO signals in the list).      The operation complete event will only report the signal list name      itself, i.e., without the parameters supplied as in:         O:   sl/oc(sl/s)      Should any of the signals in the signal list result in an error,      an operation failure event for the Signal List signal MUST be      generated.  Only the signal list name will be included, thus it is      not possible to determine which of the signals in the signal list      actually failed.      Note that if an event occurs while the "SL/S" signal is playing,      the "SL/S" signal is stopped in the following manner:         *  If the signal in the list that was playing at the time the            event occurred is of type BR, then the BR signal will be            played to completion and no other signals in the list will            be played.         *  If the signal in the list that was playing at the time the            event occurred is of type TO, then the TO signal will stop            immediately and no other signals in the list will be played.2.9.  Media Format Parameter Package   Package Name: FM   Version: 0   This package provides support for the media format parameter Local   Connection Option (LCO).  The media format parameter LCO is similar   to the "fmtp" attribute in SDP [15] and is applicable to all of the   same media formats that the corresponding SDP fmtp attribute could be   used with (i.e., media format parameters for any media format MIME   type).  The media format parameter is encoded as the keyword "fmtp"   or "o-fmtp", followed by a colon and a quoted string beginning with   the media format name (MIME subtype only) followed by a space,   followed by the media format parameters associated with that media   format.  For simplicity, we will use the terms "codec" and "mediaFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 39]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   format" interchangeably in the following.  Multiple formats may be   indicated by either repeating the "fmtp" local connection option   multiple times, such as:      L:a:codec1;codec2, fmtp:"codec1 formatX", fmtp:"codec2 formatY"   or alternatively by having a single "fmtp" keyword followed by a   colon, and a semi-colon separated list of quoted strings for each   media format parameter, as in:      L:a:codec1;codec2, fmtp:"codec1 formatX";"codec2 formatY"   The two formats may be mixed.   If it is possible for the same codec to be requested with and without   the special "fmtp" format, the following could result:      L:a:codec1;codec1, fmtp:"codec1 formatX"   However, it would not be clear if the fmtp parameter was to be   applied to the first or the second occurrence of the codec.  The   problem with that is, that codec ordering is important (i.e., codecs   are listed in preferred order), and the above syntax does not provide   a way to indicate if "formatX" is preferred (i.e., associated with   the first "codec1") or not (i.e., associated with the second   "codec1").  In order to resolve this dilemma, when the same codec is   requested with multiple formats, the codec name in the "fmtp" format   string is followed by a colon and an <order>, where <order> is a   number from one to N for N occurrences of the same codec in the codec   list i.e.:      L:a:codec1;codec1, fmtp:"codec1:2 formatX"   indicates that "formatX" is associated with the second instance of   "codec1" in the "a:codec1;codec1" list.  If an invalid instance   number is supplied (e.g., instance 3 where there are only two   instances), then error code 524 - inconsistency in local connection   options will be returned.   Pre-pending "fmtp" with the string "o-" (i.e., "o-fmtp") indicates   that the format is optional.  In that case, the gateway may decide   not to use the fmtp parameter specified, or only use it in part.   If the "fmtp" in an LCO is not optional (i.e., does not have "o-" in   front of it), and the LCO value is either not recognized or not   supported, then the associated codec is considered "not supported".Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 40]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   When auditing capabilities, the "fmtp" local connection option MUST   be returned with a semi-colon separated list of supported formats   and/or multiple independent "fmtp" parameters as in:      A: a:telephone-event, fmtp:"telephone-event 0-15,32-35",...      A: a:PCMU;G729, fmtp:"PCMU foo";"PCMU bar", fmtp:"G729 foobar",...   One example uses the media format parameter LCO in conjunction with   the media format "telephone-event", as defined inRFC 2833 [33].  If   the media format "telephone-event" is used without the "fmtp" media   format parameter, the DTMF digits (telephone events 0-15 fromRFC2833 [33]) are assumed - such practice is however discouraged.  On   the other hand, the media format parameter LCO MAY be used to specify   the exact set of events that are being requested viaRFC 2833 [33].   Example:      L: a:PCMU;telephone-event,fmtp:"telephone-event 16"   indicates that if telephone events are supported at all, then this   request is specifically for event 16.   In another case, the Call Agent may indicate that some format   parameters are "required", while others are optional.  In the example   below, telephone events 0-15 are a "must", while telephone events 16,   70 and 71 are optional.      L: a:PCMU;telephone-event, o-fmtp:"telephone-event 16,70,71",      fmtp:"telephone-event 0-15"   If the gateway cannot support telephone events 0-15, it MUST NOT   include the "telephone-event" media format in the SDP in its   response.  On the other hand, if it can support those telephone   events, it SHOULD indicate support for those events, as well as any   of the events 16, 70 and 71 that it supports.   If a request is made to audit the capabilities of an endpoint, and   the endpoint supports the "telephone event" media format with events   "0-16", then the audit would include the following:      A: a:telephone-event, fmtp: "telephone-event 0-16"   Another example is the use of redundancy withRFC 2198 [32].  Again,   the format of the fmtp string is similar to that used in the SDP   except that the literal string ("red" in this case) is used rather   than the payload type:      L: a:G729;pcmu;red,fmtp:"red pcmu/g729"Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 41]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   The corresponding media description in the SDP as part of the   connection request acknowledgment might look like:      m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 98 18 0      a=rtpmap:98 red/8000/1      a=fmtp:98 0/18   If we combine both telephone events and redundancy, an example local   connection option might look as follows (carriage return added for   formatting reasons here):      L: a:G729;pcmu;red;telephone-event,fmtp:"red pcmu/g729",                                         fmtp: "telephone-event 16"   Note that we again specify the literal string for the encoding method   rather than its payload type.  This is a general principle that   should be used with this LocalConnectionOption.   The corresponding SDP might appear as follows:      m=audio 12345 RTP/AVP 97 98 18 0      a=rtpmap:97 red/8000/1      a=fmtp:97 0/18      a=rtpmap:98 telephone event      a=fmtp:98 16   Note that the fmtp LCO may be used in any situation where the   corresponding SDP attribute may be used.  An example of a local   connection option that involves a media type other than audio and a   "foobar" fmtp parameter:      L: a:image/tiff, fmtp:"tiff foobar"   Note that normally local connection options that are associated with   a package should have the package prefix included as per the package   extension rules in [1].  The "fmtp" and "o-fmtp" LCO in the "FM"   package are an exception.  The package prefix is not included in the   case of the "fmtp" and "o-fmtp" local connection options because they   were created before the extension rules in [1] were defined.   These two LocalConnectionOptions have been registered with IANA.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 42]

New events added to this package from the previously unversioned   package: "iu", "rto", "ma".   Note that default time-out values may be over-ridden by the Call   Agent for any Time-Out signal defined in this package by a "to"   signal parameter.  Refer tosection 2 of this document, as well as   [1] for details.   The events in this package all refer to media streams (connections),   i.e., they cannot be detected on an endpoint.  Furthermore, with the   exception of the "iu" event, which is defined for any type of media,   all other events in this package are defined for RTP media streams   only (i.e., if they are used on connections that do not use RTP, the   behavior is not defined).   Signals requested (e.g., "co1" and "co2") must indicate the   connection ID (e.g., "S: r/co1@connectionID").  An event may be   requested for all existing connections using the "*" wildcard for the   connectionID as described in [1].Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 43]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Example:      R: r/uc@*    (request to detect uc on all connections) or      R: r/uc@connectionID   (request to detect uc only on a specific      connection)   An event detected on a connection will include the connectionID,   e.g.:      O: r/uc@connectionID(15)   Continuity tones (co1 and co2):      These are the same as the events defined in the Trunk package,      except in this case, they are only played over a network      connection and the connectionID MUST be supplied (e.g., "s:      r/co1@connectionID").  They can be used in conjunction with the      Network LoopBack (netwloop) or Network Continuity Test (netwtest)      modes to test the continuity of an RTP circuit.  However, in the      case of testing IP continuity, a one-tone test is sufficient i.e.,      generating and detecting "co1" at one end, with connection mode in      network loopback mode at the other end.  Note that the test can      also be done using telephone events rather than tones, i.e., event      167 inRFC 2833 [33] corresponds to "co1".  In this case,      connection requests are made with local connection options such      as:         L: a:PCMU;telephone-event,fmtp:"telephone-event 167"      in order to request support for telephone event 167.  If both ends      support the event, then the network loopback proceeds as usual,      except that telephone events corresponding to the co1 tone are      sent, as opposed to the co1 tone itself.   ICMP Unreachable Received (iu):      This event indicates that some number of ICMP unreachable packets      [19] was received for this connection since an RQNT was received      requesting this event.  This notification indicates that packets      that were sent by the gateway on this connection either did not      arrive at their destination or were not accepted (e.g., the port      was closed).  When this event is requested, a single parameter      with a decimal number from 1 to 255 may be included to indicate      the number of ICMP un-reachable packets that must occur before the      event is notified.  If no parameter is supplied, with the request      then a default value of 3 is assumed.  This is a one-shot event in      that once the event occurs, a further request is required in order      to re-initiate counting.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 44]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      The observed event is parameterized with two parameters:         *  The first parameter is the number of ICMP unreachable            packets received (i.e., the same value that was included in            the request - or the value 3, if the requested event was not            parameterized)         *  The second parameter is the error code indicated in the ICMP            unreachable packet, e.g.:               0 = net unreachable;               1 = host unreachable;               2 = protocol unreachable;               3 = port unreachable;               4 = fragmentation needed and DF set;               5 = source route failed.               etc.      An example of a request might be as follows:         RQNT 2001 ds/ds1-3/6@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0         X: 0123456789B0         R: r/iu@364823(N)(5)      In this case, a notify will occur if 5 ICMP port unreachable      packets are received as a result of RTP and/or RTCP packets being      sent from this gateway on the connection with connection ID      364823.      The resulting NTFY with observed events might be as follows:         NTFY 3002 ds/ds1-3/6@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0         X: 0123456789B0         O: r/iu@364823(5,3)      The first parameter indicates 5 ICMP unreachable packets were      received since the RQNT with this request was sent.  The second      parameter ("3") specifies the reason, which in this case, is "port      unreachable".Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 45]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   Jitter Buffer Size Changed (ji):      This event is only included here to maintain compatibility with      the previous version of this package.  This event is used to      indicate that the gateway has made an adjustment to the depth of      the jitter buffer.  The syntax for requesting notification is      "ji", which tells the media gateway that the controller wants      notification of any jitter buffer size changes.  The syntax for      notification from the media gateway to the controller is      "JI(####)", where the #### is a decimal number from 1 to 65536,      indicating the new size of the jitter buffer in milliseconds.   Media Start (ma):      The media start event occurs on a connection when the first valid      RTP media packet is received on the connection.  This event can be      used to synchronize a local signal, e.g., ringback, with the      arrival of media from the other party.      The event is detected on a connection.  If no connection is      specified, the event applies to all connections for the endpoint,      regardless of when the connections are created (i.e., if a      connection is not specified, the event will occur when the first      valid RTP packet arrives on any one of the connections on that      endpoint).   Operation complete (oc):      This is the standard definition of operation complete [1].   Operation failure (of):      This is the standard definition of operation failure [1].   Packet Loss Exceeded (pl):      Packet loss rate exceeds the threshold of the specified decimal      number (with a range of 1 to 100,000) of packets per 100,000      packets, where the packet loss number is indicated in parenthesis.      For example, PL(10) is a drop rate of 10 in 100,000 packets.  This      event is requested with a parameter indicating at what packet loss      rate the Call Agent wishes to be reported.  If the packet loss      exceeds that value, the event is reported with that same      parameter.  The event is only reported once when the packet loss      threshold is exceeded.  Once reported, a following request will      re-initiate packet loss measurements and report when the threshold      is exceeded again.   Quality alert (qa):      The packet loss rate or the combination of delay and jitter      exceeding a quality threshold.  The quality thresholds for delay,      jitter and packet loss rate are provisioned values.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 46]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   RTP/RTCP Timeout (rto(<timeout>,st=<start-time>)):      This event indicates that neither RTP nor RTCP packets have been      received on this connection for a period of time equal to the      <timeout> value (in seconds).  The timeout value can be supplied      as a decimal number from 1 to 65535 in the parameter when the      request is made.  The <timeout> parameter will be supplied in      ObservedEvents when the event is reported - it then simply repeats      the value used.  If an RTP or RTCP packet is received before the      timer expires, then the timer is reset and re-started.  The event      will only be generated if the timer expires without an RTP or RTCP      packet arriving on the specified connection during the specified      period of time.  Note that if the event is requested without the      <timeout> parameter, then a default timeout of 60 seconds is      assumed.  The <timeout> value will still be reported in      ObservedEvents, even if no timeout value was indicated in the      request (the default value will be indicated in that case).  This      is a one-shot event in that once the event occurs, a further      request is required in order to re-initialize the timer.      Another optional <start-time> parameter may also be included.      This is used to indicate when the timer starts.  It can have one      of the following values:         *  "im" for immediate i.e., the timer starts as soon as the            request is received.  This is the default.         *  "ra" to indicate that the timer should start only after an            RTCP packet has been received from the other end (i.e., the            timer will be initiated when the first RTCP packet is            received after the request is made).  Note that in the case            where the other end does not support RTCP, the timer will            never be initiated.      Note that either the <timeout> or <start-time> may be included in      the request, but only the <timeout> value is included in the      report.      An example of a request might be as follows:         RQNT 2001 ds/ds1-3/6@gw-o.whatever.net MGCP 1.0         X: 0123456789B0         R: r/rto@364823(N)(120,st=im)      In this case, a notify will occur if there is a period of time      when no RTP or RTCP packets have been received on connection      364823 for 120 seconds.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 47]

This event indicates that      the packetization period changed to some decimal number in      milliseconds enclosed in parenthesis, as in SR(20).   Used Codec Changed (uc):      This event is only included here to maintain compatibility with      the previous version of this package.  This event is requested      without a parameter, but when reported, the hexadecimal payload      type is enclosed in parenthesis, as in UC(8), to indicate the      codec was changed to PCM A-law.  Codec Numbers are specified inRFC 3551 [26], or in a new definition of the audio profiles for      RTP that replaces this RFC.2.11.  Resource Reservation Package   Package Name: RES   Version: 02.11.1.  Description   The "RES" package provides local connection option support for   resource reservations as well as an event to indicate reservation   loss.   A number of LocalConnectionOption parameters are used in doing   resource reservations: "reservation request", "reservation   direction", "reservation confirmation" and "resource sharing".   Reservation Request LocalConnectionOption: The gateways can be   instructed to perform a reservation on a given connection using RSVP.   When a reservation is needed, the Call Agent will specify the   reservation profile that should be used, which is either "controlled   load" or "guaranteed service".  The absence of reservation can be   indicated by asking for the "best effort" service, which is the   default value for this parameter.   Whether or not RSVP will be done is dependent on whether the   reservation request LocalConnectionOption parameter has been included   in a connection request for this connection (with either "controlled   load" or "guaranteed service" indicated).  If a modify connectionFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 48]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   (MDCX) request requires a change in the reservation and the   "reservation request" parameter is not included in the   LocalConnectionOptions, but was included in the   LocalConnectionOptions for a previous connection request for that   connection, then the "reservation request" value defaults to its   previously saved value for that connection.  If a modify connection   (MDCX) request explicitly contains a "reservation request",   indicating a request for "best effort" for a connection that has an   existing reservation, the existing reservation will be torn down.   Reservation Direction LocalConnectionOption:      When reservation has been requested on a connection, the gateway      will examine the reservation direction LocalConnectionOption      parameter to determine the direction that the reservations require      and do the following:         *  Start emitting RSVP "PATH" messages if the reservation            direction LocalConnectionOptions parameter specified "send-            only" or "send-receive".         *  Start emitting RSVP "RESV" messages as soon as it receives            "PATH" messages if the reservation direction parameter            specified "receive-only" or "send-receive".      If an RSVP reservation is requested, but the reservation direction      LocalConnectionOption parameter is missing, the reservation      direction defaults to the previously saved value of the      reservation direction parameter for that connection.  If there was      no previous reservation direction parameter for that connection,      the value is deduced from the connection mode.  That is:         *  Start emitting RSVP "PATH" messages if the connection is in            "send-only", "send-receive", "conference", "network loop            back" or "network continuity test" mode (if a remote            connection descriptor has been received).         *  Start emitting RSVP "RESV" messages as soon as it receives            "PATH" messages if the connection is in "receive-only",            "send-receive", "conference", "network loop back" or            "network continuity test" mode.   Reservation Confirmation LocalConnectionOption:      Another LocalConnectionOption parameter for RSVP reservations is      the reservation confirmation parameter, which determines what the      resource reservation pre-condition (see [1]) is for acknowledging      a successful connection request:Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 49]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003         *  If the reservation confirmation parameter is set to "none",            the gateway will "Ack" the connection request without            waiting for reservation completion.  This is the default            behavior.         *  If the "reservation confirmation" parameter is set to            "send-only", the gateway will "Ack" when the PATH message            has been sent and the corresponding RESV is received to            indicate successful reservation in the send direction.         *  If the "reservation confirmation" parameter is set to            "receive-only", the gateway will "Ack" when reservation            confirm for a reservation has been received.         *  If the reservation confirmation parameter is set to "send-            receive", the gateway will "Ack" only after the PATH message            has been sent and the corresponding RESV has been received            for send direction, and reservation confirm has been            received for the receive direction.   Note that:      Values "receive-only" and "send-receive" are triggers for the      gateway to request reservation confirm (RESVCONF) when it sends      out the RESV.      Pre-conditions SHOULD only be added for the direction(s) for which      resource reservations have been requested.  If a direction is      added as a pre-condition, and that direction was not requested in      the resource reservation, the direction MUST simply be ignored as      a pre-condition.      In this approach, resource reservation success is the pre-      condition to final acknowledgement of the connection request.  If      the reservation fails, the connection request also fails (error      code 404 - insufficient bandwidth) - as will any other part of the      transaction, e.g., a notification request included as part of the      connection request.  A typical example of this would be a request      to ring the phone and look for off-hook, included with the      connection request.  If the reservation fails, the phone will not      ring.  Similarly, if the phone is already off-hook, the command      fails and there will be no resource reservation.      A provisional response SHOULD be provided if confirmation is      expected to occur outside the normal retry timers and in fact a      provisional response MUST be provided if the reservation      confirmation parameter has value "send-receive" (without a      provisional response, SDP information cannot be returned until theFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 50]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      final "Ack" which will not occur until the reservation is      complete.  This can result in a deadlock since the SDP information      typically needs to be passed to the other end in order for it to      initiate the RSVP PATH message in the other direction).  The SDP      information and connectionID MUST be included in both the      provisional response and the final response.  Note that in order      to ensure rapid detection of a lost final response, final      responses issued after provisional responses for a transaction      SHALL be acknowledged, i.e., they SHALL include an empty      "ResponseAck" parameter in the final response (see [1]).      If the transaction time is outside the expected bounds (time      T-HIST - see the section on provisional responses in [1]), error      code 406 (transaction timeout) SHOULD be returned.      Also note that if the reservation confirmation parameter is      omitted, the value of the reservation confirmation parameter      defaults to its previously saved value.  If there is no previously      saved value for the reservation confirmation parameter, or the      reservation confirmation parameter has the value "none", then      successful resource reservation is not a pre-condition to      providing an acknowledgement to the connection request (i.e., the      gateway can "Ack" right away without waiting for the reservation      to complete and a provisional response will not be necessary).   Resource Sharing LocalConnectionOption:      It may be possible to share network resources across multiple      connections.  An example is a call-waiting scenario, where only      one connection will ever be active at a time.  In a 3-way calling      scenario with a similar set of connections, sharing is not      possible.  Only the Call Agent knows what may be possible,      depending on the feature that is being invoked.      In order to allow the Call Agent to indicate that sharing is      possible, a resource sharing LocalConnectionOption parameter is      introduced.  This parameter can have one of the following values:         *  A value "$" can be specified where $ refers to "this            connection".  This value is used when doing a create            connection and indicates the intent to share resources with            this connection.         *  A connection ID can be specified which indicates that this            is a request to share resources with the connection having            this connection ID (allowing multiple connections to share            resources with the connection indicated).Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 51]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003         *  The value can be empty, which indicates a request to no            longer share the resources of this connection with other            connections.      In the case of a CRCX, the default value for the resource sharing      local connection option is empty, and for an MDCX, the default      value is its current value.   The RSVP filters will be deduced from the characteristics of the   connection.  The RSVP resource profiles will be deduced from the   connection's bandwidth and packetization period.   Note that if RSVP is used with PacketCable Dynamic Quality of Service   [35], then the parameters in NCS [36] would be used instead of the   reservation direction, confirmation and reservation sharing   parameters described here.2.11.2.  Parameter Encoding   The Local Connection Options for the "RES" package consist of the   following:      *  The resource reservation parameter, encoded as the keyword "r",         followed by a colon and the value "g" (guaranteed service),         "cl" (controlled load) or "be" (best effort).      *  The reservation direction parameter, encoded as the keyword         "r-dir" followed by a colon and the value "sendonly",         "recvonly" or "sendrecv".      *  The reservation confirmation parameter, encoded as the keyword         "r-cnf" followed by a colon and the value "none", "sendonly",         "recvonly" or "sendrecv".      *  The resource sharing parameter, encoded as the keyword "r-sh"         followed by a colon and either:            *  The wild-card character "$" indicating this connection,               indicating future plans to share resources with this               connection, or            *  A connection ID, indicating a request to share resources               with the connection having the specified connection ID               (and all other connections sharing resources with that               connection), orFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 52]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003            *  An empty value (i.e., "r-sh:" with no value indicated),               indicating a request to no longer share the resources of               this connection with other connections   Note that normally local connection options that are associated with   a package have the package prefix included as per the package   extension rules in [1].  The local connection options in the "RES"   package are exceptions.  The package prefix is not included in the   case of the "RES" package because it was created before the extension   rules in [1] were defined.2.11.3.  Events   The following events are included as part of the resource reservation   package:    ------------------------------------------------------   | Symbol  | Definition           |   R |   S  Duration |   |------------------------------------------------------|   |  re     | Resource Error       |   C |               |   |  rl     | Resource Lost        |   C |               |    ------------------------------------------------------   Resource Error (re):      This is an indication that an error in the resource reservation      occurred during the life of the connection.  This event is not      requested with a parameter, but is reported with a parameter (see      possible values below).  This event may or may not indicate the      permanent loss of the reservation (i.e., any error associated with      the reservation whether permanent or temporary will be reported).      If requested on an endpoint (without specifying the connection      ID), the request refers to all present and future connections on      that endpoint.  When reported, the connectionID is always supplied      along with a reason for the error indicated as a parameter.  One      of the following possible reasons for loss MUST be included as the      parameter when the event is reported:         -  "resverr" is used to indicate that a ResvErr message was            received.         -  "patherr" is used to indicate that a PathErr message was            received.         -  "other"      In addition to a parameter indicating one of the reasons above,      additional information on the type of error MAY be included as a      second parameter in the form of a quoted string.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 53]

Resource Lost (rl):      Loss of reservation during the life of a connection can be      reported by using the "rl" event.  This event is not requested      with a parameter, but is reported with a parameter (see below for      possible values).  If requested on an endpoint (without specifying      the connection ID), the request refers to all present and future      connections on that endpoint.      When reported, the connectionID is always supplied along with a      reason for the loss indicated as a parameter.  One of the      following possible reasons for loss MUST be supplied as the      parameter when the event is reported:         -  "resvtear" indicating that the reservation loss was            indicated by ResvTear message.         -  "pathtear" indicating that the reservation loss was            indicated by PathTear message.         -  "other"      In addition to a parameter indicating one of the reasons above,      additional information on the type of error MAY be included as a      second parameter in the form of a quoted string.      Example report might include:         O: res/rl@0A3F58(ResvTear)      or         O: res/rl@0A3F58(ResvTear, "some other commentary")Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 54]

The announcement signal is qualified by a URL name:      S: ann(http://scripts.example.net/all-lines-busy.au)   The URL name MAY be followed by a list of initial parameters,   separated by commas.  However, standard parameters are not included   as part of this package definition (Note: use of additional   parameters is optional and would result in a proprietary interface).   The gateway SHOULD support one or more standard URL schemes such as:      *  file, http, ftp (RFC 1738 [28]), which indicate where the audio         file is located (where to load the file from before playing the         audio file on the gateway).      *  RTSP URL (section 3.2 of RFC 2326 [29]), which in this case         allows the media gateway to directly initiate playing of the         announcement via an RTSP server.   The pre-condition for a successful response (return code of "200") is   correct syntax and capability (support is available for this   request).  Standard MGCP return codes apply in the case of failure.   Further indications of failure are provided in the operation failure   event as a comment after the name of the failed event in the form of   a quoted string.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 55]

The current definition defines keywords for the most common   languages.  More languages may be defined in later versions of this   package.   The "signal" specifying the scripting language is parameterized with   a URL indicating the location of the script.  The URL parameter MAY   be optionally followed by a comma-separated list of arguments as   initial parameters to use in running the script.  URL schemes may   include file ftp, or http schemes with syntax according toRFC 2396   [30].  As an example:      S: script/vxml(ftp://ftp.example.net/credit-card.vxml,arg1,arg2,                                                              ...,argn)Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 56]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003   The argument list "arg1,arg2,...,argn" is passed to the   script/document as a list of initial parameters.   The pre-condition for a successful response (return code of "200") is   correct syntax and capability (support is available for this   request).  Standard MGCP return codes apply in the case of failure.   Some further (non-application/script specific) failure indications   MAY be provided in the operation failure event as a comment in the   form of a quoted string following the name of the failed event.   Example      O: script/of(script/vxml,"file not found")   The script produces an output, which consists of one or several text   strings, separated by commas.  This provides the return-status of the   script as well as return parameters (if there are any)      O: script/oc(script/vxml,return-status=<status>,                        name1=value1,name2=value2,...)   where <status> can have one of the values "success" or "failure".   This is then followed by output parameters as a comma-separated list   of name-value pairs.   Intermediate Result/Request (ir(<params>)):      This provides a way for:         *  The script to inform the Call Agent of intermediate results            (e.g., a case where it is important because of timing            concerns to inform the Call Agent prior to operation            complete).         *  The script to request some information from the Call Agent.         *  The Call Agent to inform the script of some event or            information that may be important for the operation of the            script (in this case "ir" is used as a signal).      Parameters (i.e., <params>) SHOULD be a comma-separated list of      name-value pairs e.g., ir(name1=value1,name2=value2,..).  The Call      Agent MAY include event parameters when it requests this event, in      which case, the MGCP syntax requirements require that the action      be specified (e.g., "R: ir(N)(nam1=value1,name2=value2,..)").      If the Call Agent requests "ir" as a signal, at least one      parameter MUST be provided.Foster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 57]

RFC 3660                  Basic MGCP Packages              December 2003      When requesting the "ir" signal, the Call Agent MUST also repeat      the original script signal.  This is in order to be consistent      with the semantics of TO signals in MGCP (i.e., if the original      "script" signal is not included, then the signal/script will be      stopped).  The only problem with this is that there is a possible      race condition in which a request to send an "ir" signal could      occur just as the script stopped.  In order to avoid this      confusion, the following is RECOMMENDED: when the script signal is      included with an "ir" signal, include a parameter (of the script      signal) to indicate that this is not a new instance of the script      i.e., if there is no script executing at the present time do not      start executing a new one.      The "ir" signal is only associated with an executing script.  If      none are running when a request for the event/signal is made, or      if a new script request is not included with the request, then the      "ir" signal/event will not be executed (i.e., the "ir" event with      its parameters is passed to an existing script for parsing and      execution and is considered opaque as far as MGCP as concerned.      If no such script exists, response code "800" will be returned,      indicating that the script is not executing).   The following response code is associated with this package:      Code    Text                 Explanation      800     Script not           Request for "ir" signal or event              Executing            but no script is executing at the                                   time the request was received.      Note that package specific error codes include the package name      following the error code.  For example, if error code 800 occurs      in response to a request with a transaction ID of 1001, it would      be sent as:         800 1001 /SCRIPTFoster & Andreasen           Informational                     [Page 58]
