Program to auto-deploy CUBE. This will capture all calls from the CUCM/ITSP and pass them out a necessary outbound dial-peer. This is achieved by matching on the URI of the CUCM and ITSP. The benefit of matching on URI rather than destination patterns, incoming called/calling, etc is that it allows this solution to be a almost a one size fits all solution. It doesn't matter what country the code is ran in so long as the IPs/DNS are provide this code will accept any type of dialling patterns e.g if it's +44, 900353, 0061, they'll all be accepted and depending on who they're sent from will determine the path the call will take. If you're following Cisco’s best practise of globalising the number to e.164 prior to arriving to the CUBE and the ITSP supports e.164 dialling then this program is the right fit for you. Yes there will be exceptions were certain providers will need SIP profiles and others registrar information, something that I will look to further add as I develop into the future but if you just require a standard CUBE stood up, this will achieve that goal. Codecs supported are g711u/alaw

The program assumes that you already have the below information
IP Address of CUBE
Username/Password
ITSP media, signalling and gateway IP to provider
Signalling protocols being used
This program will configure CUBE and deploy 4 dial-peers, using server groups and dpgs any calls destined from the CUCM to the ITSP will automatically be sent to the ITSP and visa versa.
There isn't any manipulation of the calls being used, the program assumes that none is required.
There isn't any manipulation of SIP headers involved. If these are required, configure them seperately.
The program is very much still in beta. I've not implemented error handling to capture in the event users put in IPs instead of a signalling protocol.
This will come in future iterations, this for the moment will deploy your CUBE provided you follow the prompts correctly.
The operator of this code will need access to the CUBE via SSH
The call flow is very simple, it takes the call from CUCM via any means and passes it through the CUBE to the ITSP without any manipulation other than binding signalling and media which is required to send/recieve calls. The program will also deploy dial-peers in the opposite direction to accept calls from the ISP and pass them to the CUCM. Matching from a CUBE perspective is done via the URI headers.
This code was tested on CSR and ISR4331. It should function on any Cisco device that supports CUBE as it is using it's standard commands
input_ip_addr = Hostname (must be resolvable) or IP address of CSR/ISR
input_username = User with priviledge to make configuration changes
input_password = Password for User
internal_cube_interface = internal interface for binding signalling/media. This is the interface that the CUCM SIP trunk will send traffic towards and also recieve
external_cube_interface = external interface for binding signalling/media. This is the interface that the ITSP SIP trunk will send traffic towards and also recieve
verify_ip_change = Prompt to register response to external/internal IP address changes requirements
external_ip = Verify the IP of the external interface
internal_ip = Verifying the IP of the external interface
subnet_mask = Used in methods to verify subnet during IP address change on internal/external interface
cucm_signalling_protocol = CUCM signalling protocol for SIP trunks (tcp/udp)
number_of_cucm = Number of CUCM in the cluster
cucm_ip = IP/Hostnames of each CUCM held in a list
itsp_signalling_ip = ITSP signaling IP
itsp_media_ip = ITSP media IP
itsp_route_ip = Route to use to forward traffic to ITSP SIP gateway
itsp_signalling_protocol = ITSP signalling protocol(udp/tcp)
dial_peer_range = Dial-Peer numbering . It will ask for a single number and create 4 dialpeer 1 after another a.g 1000 will result in 1000,1001,1002 and 1003 being created
When the program has ran, on success the output will look like the below. The program will produce this for you. I've excluded any irrelevant configuration and my comments on the code can be seen with ()
