300-820 · Question #6

Refer to the exhibit. In an environment SIP devices are registered to CUCM and H.323 devices to VCS. What would be required to enable these calls to setup correctly?

The correct answer is D. Change the interworking mode to On. When SIP devices are registered to CUCM and H.323 devices are registered to VCS, interworking must be enabled on VCS to translate between the two protocols.

Why each option

When SIP devices are registered to CUCM and H.323 devices are registered to VCS, interworking must be enabled on VCS to translate between the two protocols.

ACreate a presearch transform.

A presearch transform manipulates dial strings before search, and does not resolve protocol incompatibility between SIP and H.323.

BChange the domain of SIP endpoint A to cisco.com.

Changing the domain of a SIP endpoint affects registration addressing but does not enable protocol translation between SIP and H.323.

CDisable SIP in the external zone.

Disabling SIP in the external zone would prevent SIP communication entirely, making calls less likely to succeed rather than enabling them.

DChange the interworking mode to On.Correct

Cisco VCS supports protocol interworking between SIP and H.323, but this feature must be explicitly enabled by setting the interworking mode to 'On'. Without this, VCS cannot bridge signaling between H.323-registered endpoints and SIP-registered endpoints on CUCM, causing call setup to fail.
