Cisco IOS Voice, Video, and Fax Commands: R Through Sh
session target (VoIP)
VR-614
Cisco IOS Voice, Video, Fax Command Reference
Defaults The default state for this command is enabled, with no IP address or domain name defined.
Command Modes Dial-peer configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines Use the session target command to specify a network-specific address or domain name for a dial peer.
Whether you select a network-specific address or a domain name depends on the session protocol you
select.
The session target loopback command is used for testing the voice transmission path of a call. The
loopback point will depend on the call origin and the loopback type selected.
The session target dns command can be used with or without the specified wildcards. Using the optional
wildcards can reduce the number of VoIP dial peer session targets you must configure if you have groups
of numbers associated with a particular router.
Use the session target ras command to specify that the RAS protocol is being used to determine the IP
address of the session target.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)T the session target command configuration cannot combine the target of
RAS with the settle-call command. When configuring the VoIP dial peers for a settlement server, if
session target type is settlement, the provider-number parameter in the session target and settle-call
commands should be identical.
When the VoIP dial peers are configured for a settlement server, if the session target type is settlement,
the provider-number parameter in the session target and settle-call commands should be identical.
Examples The following example configures a session target using DNS for a host, “voice_router,” in the domain
cisco.com:
dial-peer voice 10 voip
loopback:uncompresse
d
Indicates that all voice data will be looped-back in uncompressed mode to
the source. This is applicable for POTS peers.
ras Indicates that the registration, admission, and status (RAS) signaling
function protocol is being used, meaning that a gatekeeper will be
consulted to translate the E.164 address into an IP address.
settlement
provider-number
Indicates that the settlement server is the target to resolve the terminating
gateway address. Enter the provider IP address for provider number.
