Re: Billing unanswer call.

It seems to me that the ports you are using for POTS in the 3620 are 
analog ports (like FXO). On this kind of interfaces, there is no 
information about call signalling, so it cannot tell real call setup 
times. This way, you will be billing for busy tones and unanswered calls 
because it considers the call to last between the call setup moment and 
the moment when the calling party tears down the unanswered call.

Your only option in this case is to switch to digital ports (BRI/PRI 
ISDN, E1 R2, or even SS7 although the last one would be a very expensive 
option).

Hi guys i can make the cisco to give a signal about this situation:

i call from and ata my gateways is a cisco 3620 ...all is ok ..when a 
put a call through the gateways it make the call ..but if the other end 
do not pick up the phone the gk sendme a time of connection to the 
billing system... and this is untrue...anybody have experience how to 
configure the gk or the cisco so onlñy send me a true connection???

i compare the h323-setup-time the connect-time and the disconnect-time 
and always have values ....similar values ...with that error...how can 
you determine that the other party pick-up the phone???

Thank You.
