Can't get inbound or outbound calls coming in but POTS line is working?

So I've been working on my CUCM lab and trying to make calls work outbound and receive from and to the PSTN but they are not working:

I don't understand why I can't make outbound calls and receive them from the outside. Can someone please help me understand why? Would translation rules be a cause of this? I don't know how to configure them if they are, and i don't understand them much. I see that my gateway is getting the incoming calls now but my phones aren't ringing or when I dial out the are ringing out, BUT I get this distorted noise. Any ideas?

    Are you sending the call to a UCM server, or CME router? If UCM, how did you setup the H323 GW? Do you have a phone that's extension "100"?

    Also check the digit-strip characteristics for POTS dial-peers. Anything matching 100, 104, or 105 is only sending 7 digits to the PSTN – Is this what you want?

    The CUCM server is a VMware server, and the H323 gateway is running on my Cisco 2621XM router. My location requires 10 digit dialing for local calling. I need 10 digits to work inbound and Outbound.
    I have my own extention, my wife's and the CIPCC extentions.

    My Gateway and my CUCM server are talking. I know the calls come in to the gateway there's activity BUT none of the phones are ringing.

    OK, for inbound on a POTS line you’re not going to get dialed number info – that’s why you send it directly to “somewhere” via the FXO config with the PLAR command. The call is hitting the gateway and forwarded to extension 100 – is that a dial-able extension on the UCM box? If not, you either have to send the call to a valid extension (or hunt pilot, and so on) or you’ll need to translate it (either on the gateway or in UCM).

    For outbound, POTS dial-peers will by default strip off explicitly defined digits – If you make a local call to area codes 678, 770, or 404 only 7 digits are being sent. With your long distance dial-peer, the 1 is being stripped off. Need to add “forward-digits [number]”

    Have you studied the CVOICE material? My advice would be to focus on CVOICE using CME first, then apply the knowledge to UCM later down the road. Call Manager is a monster – you really need a solid foundation before you dive in.

    I got outbound working not inbound yet. I do plan on learning CME after I get the CUCM running.

    I've been studying the CVOICE material off and on. First of the year I plan on starting full-blown, but in the meantime I prefer to play with the lab first and learn as I go. It helps me understand the CVOICE stuff better.

    Always remember that a Call has at least two call legs.. (inbound and outbound) 9/10 people will use a single dial-peer for both...but to fix your inbound dial problem read up on " Direct Inward Dial" ...Understanding Direct-Inward-Dial (DID) on IOS Voice Digital (T1/E1) Interfaces - Cisco Systems
