Introduction
This document covers the Procedure for Configuring the SIP Voice Gateway for IPV6 with
examples.

Configuring a SIP Voice Gateway for IPv6

Users in a SIP network are identified by unique SIP addresses. A SIP address is similar
to an e-mail address and is in the format of sip:[email protected]. The user ID can
be either a username or an E.164 address. The gateway can be either a domain (with or
without a hostname) or a specific Internet IPv4 or IPv6 address.
A SIP trunk can operate in one of three modes: SIP trunk in IPv4-only mode, SIP trunk in
IPv6-only mode, and SIP trunk in dual-stack mode, which supports both IPv4 and IPv6.

Configuring SIP Voice Gateway for IPv6

A Cisco Unified Border Element can interoperate between H.323/SIP IPv4 and SIP IPv6
networks in media flow-through mode. In media flow-through mode, both signaling and
media flows through the Cisco Unified Border Element, and the Cisco Unified Border
Element performs both signaling and media interoperation between H.323/SIP IPv4 and SIP
IPv6 networks as shown in the below diagram.

Procedure

#Procedure to configure SIP Voice Gateway for IPv6

Step1: Enabling VoIPv6 Service on Cisco Gateway

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(config-voi-serv)# shutdown forced

Step2: Enabling VoIPv6 Submodes on Cisco Gateways

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(config-voi-serv)# sip
Router(config-serv-sip)# call service stop

Step3: Configuring the Protocol Mode of the SIP Stack

SIP service should be shut down before configuring the protocol mode. After configuring
the protocol mode as IPv6, IPv4, or dual-stack, SIP service should be reenabled.

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# sip-ua

Router(config-sip-ua)# protocol mode dual-stack

Syntax: protocol mode {ipv4 | ipv6 | dual-stack [preference {ipv4 | ipv6}]}

Step4: Disabling ANAT Mode

ANAT is automatically enabled on SIP trunks in dual-stack mode. This task describes how
to disable ANAT in order to use a single-stack mode.

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(config-voi-serv)# sip
Router(conf-serv-sip)# no anat

Step5: Configuring the Source IPv6 Address of Signaling and Media Packets

Users can configure the source IPv4 or IPv6 address of signaling and media
packets to a specific interfaces IPv4 or IPv6 address. Thus, the address that
goes out on the packet is bound to the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the interface
specified with the bind command. The bind command also can be configured
with one IPv6 address to force the gateway to use the configured address when
the bind interface has multiple IPv6 addresses. The bind interface should have
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to send out ANAT.
Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(config-voi-serv)# sip

Router(config-serv-sip)# bind control sourceinterface FastEthernet0/0

Syntax: bind {control | media | all} source-interface interface-id [ipv6-address ipv6-address]

Router # configure terminal

Router(config)# sip-ua

Router(config-sip-ua)# sip-serveripv6:[2001:0DB8:0:0:8:800:200C:417A]
Syntax: sip-server {dns:[host-name] | ipv4:ipv4-address | ipv6:[ipv6-address][:port-num]}

Router(config-sip-ua)# keepalive target ipv6:[2001:0DB8:0:0:8:800:200C:417A]

Syntax: keepalive target {{ipv4:address | ipv6:address} | [:port] | dns:hostname} [tcp [tls]] |
udp] [secondary]

Step7: Configuring the Session Target

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# dial-peer voice 29 voip
Syntax: dial-peer voice tag {mmoip | pots | vofr | voip}

Router(config-dial-peer)# destination-pattern 7777

Syntax: destination-pattern [+]string[T]

Router(config-dial-peer)# session target [ipv6:2001:0DB8:0:0:8:800:200C:417A]

Syntax: session target {ipv4:destination-address | ipv6:[destination-address] | dns:[$s$. | $d
$. | $e$. | $u$.]
host-name | enum:table-num | loopback:rtp | ras | sip-server} [:port]

Step8: Configuring SIP Register Support

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# sip-ua

Router(config-sip-ua)# registrar ipv6:[3FFE:501:FFFF:5:20F:F7FF:FE0B:2972]

Syntax:registrar {dns:address | ipv4:destination-address [:port] | ipv6:destinationaddress[:port]} aor-domain expires seconds [tcp [tls]] type [secondary] [scheme string]
expires 3600 secondary

Router(config-sip-ua)# retry register 10

Router(config-sip-ua)# timers register 500

Step9: Configuring Outbound Proxy Server Globally on a SIP Gateway

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip
Router(config-voi-serv)# sip

Router(config-serv-sip)# outbound-proxy ipv6[2001:0DB8:0:0:8:800:200C:417A]

Syntax: outbound-proxy {ipv4:ipv4-address |]ipv6:ipv6-address | dns:host:domain} [:portnumber]

Step10: IPv4 to IPv6 Media Interoperating Through Cisco IOS MTP

Cisco Unified Border Element must be configured in IPv6-only or dual-stack mode to

support IPv6 calls.

Router> enable
Router # configure terminal
Router(config)# voice service voip

Router(config-voi-serv)# allow-connections h323 to sip

Syntax: allow-connections from-type to to-type

Configuration Examples for Implementing VOIP over IPv6

1. Configuring the SIP Trunk

This example shows how to configure the SIP trunk to use dual-stack mode, with IPv6 as
the preferred mode. The SIP service must be shut down before any changes are made to
protocol mode configuration.
Router(config)# sip-ua

Verifying SIP Gateway Status
The show sip-ua calls command displays active user agent client (UAC) and user agent
server (UAS) information on SIP calls:
Router# show sip-ua calls

Use the show sip-ua connections command to display SIP UA transport connection tables:
Router# show sip-ua connections udp brief
Router# show sip-ua connections udp detail
Use the show sip-ua status command to display the status of the SIP UA:
Router# show sip-ua status
