Local Tone Playout Reporting

Local Tone Playout Reporting

Local tones are tones that the Cisco ATA plays to its FXS port. Each of these tones corresponds to an
identifier, and these tone type identifiers are placed into the prserv debug log. These identifiers supply
information that administrators can use to help analyze call flows for debugging purposes.
Local tones are different from other tones because local tones are not carried within the inband audio.
Instead, the Cisco ATA is prompted by a network event to play the tone, and the Cisco ATA generates
the tone for the exclusive purpose of playing it to the attached telephone handset. For example, during
a call between the Cisco ATA and a far-end phone, the far-end user might press a digit on the dial pad,
thus sending an AVT Named Signaling Event to the Cisco ATA. This event prompts the Cisco ATA to
generate a DTMF tone and to play the tone locally to the Cisco ATA phone.
