(usr-tc) Not accepting ISDN calls... still.
I wrote a long time about this, but none of the replys really helped me, and recently it has come back up as an issue, so let's see if new knowledge can shed some light... I have two older chassises with HiperARCs in them... both have Dual-PRI cards, 12 Quads of various Digital and A/D type, a HiperARC and a NMC card. One unit has two HiperDSPs in it... the other has one HiperDSP, but it's not operational yet. These TC's can be seen on my demo TCView page, http://www.dandy.net/statistics/tc.html as Atlantic City and Pleasantville. Both chassis are up to date with TCS3.6 and the lastest code from the Totalservice website... I never can remember the version numbers, but we are _current_. Yes, even 2.0.51 on the DSPs. The problem we have is that when we upgraded from Netservers to HiperARCs, Atlantic City lost the ability to accept ISDN calls. P'ville accepts them fine, but for A.C., they come up in RADIUS as async instead of ISDN. I have turned both boxes inside out to find a difference, but could find none. Both TCs are identical but in name, phone-number and the extra DSP card. Recently, it has come to light that A.C. _is_ accepting ISDN calls, but only on the DSP cards... not the Quads. Hopefully, this will spark some suggestions on enabling ISDN. Thanx in advance. ----Steve Stephen Amadei Director of MIS Dandy Connections, Inc.

Sounds like the dual-pri card is set with the isdn gateway slot as 16 rather than 0. Basically, with it set to 16, it sends ISDN calls to the card in slot 16 to be terminated...with it set to 0, it spreads them across the quads. The reason this worked with the NETServer and not the Arc is because the NETServer had the Munich ISDN daughtercard which could terminate ISDN calls, the Arc does not. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

I understand this. On my dual-pri card I have a choice between 1-16 and NONE for no Gateway. Both P'ville and Atlantic City are NONE. As in my previous message, P'ville accepts ISDN, A.C. doesn't. I did notice that "Inbound Phone Number Routing Configuration Status" is slightly different between the two TCs... but I've never what info this page is displaying, or how to copy the info from one TC to the other. ----Steve Stephen Amadei Director of MIS Dandy Connections, Inc.

Also on your dual-pri the quad modems should show up as quad-I-modem, Make sure that they are quad-i and not just quad krish

Actually they came up as Qbch-I-mdms. ----Steve Stephen Amadei Director of MIS Dandy Connections, Inc.

On the pri card you can run debug to see how the call translates and what is happeing - on the main menu if you type crtl-D it will pop up a menu - I guess the option 4 in that menu is to trace the call, enabling that will put out q931 / layer 3 info, based on that info we can see if there is a problem with the incoming call or if its actually a 33k voice call etc. Other than that everything should work by default. krish On Wed, 26 Jan 2000, Stephen Amadei wrote:
