Continuing ISDN Problem
by Dr. David T. Thomas 06 Aug '03

06 Aug '03

Good morning all, I have a USRobotics Total Control NETServer/16 I-modem which I hope to use for dial-in access for remote users. I have had 4 ISDN lines installed. These are connected to a network terminator and then the NETServer. The switch protocol used here in Northern Cyprus is Euro-ISDN (I have confirmed this many times with the not-so-helpful telcom staff) The problem I have now is as so: 1. When I set the switch protocol to Euro-ISDN (*w=2 or ETSI-NET3) the Physical Interface goes Active but the Data Link Layer is inactive. After about a minute both the Physical Interface and Data Link Layer goes inactive. 2. While playing around with the settings, I set the switch protocol to AT&T (*w=0). When I do this both the Physical Interface and Data Link Layer go Active. However I cannot dial out (atdt command gives NO RESPONSE or NO CARRIER) and no one can dial in. A technician told me that Euro-ISDN is indeed the protocol to be used and that the telecom have obviously not setup the line correctly (something about the Data Link being activated). The telecom people however keep telling me that they have done everything on their end and that there is a problem with the settings on my modem or that my modems are not working. All 16 of them! Every person I talk to seems to say something different. I was wondering if anyone could shed any light on to this problem. Has anyone had a similar experience before? Many thanks once again.

I had the same problem over here. Verizon screwed up the FOC order and I had to change all my settings. Go thru and change wink, loop start, ground start, attenuation jitter, ect.. until you find the right combonation Message: 2 Date: Sat, 2 Aug 2003 14:16:20 -0500 (GMT+5) From: "Anil" <anilds(a)vasnet.co.in> Subject: [USR-TC] Pri Line To: USR-TC(a)mailman.xmission.com Message-ID: <34882.202.4.160.20.1059851780.squirrel(a)mail.vasnet.co.in> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Hi, i had recently bought the E1/Pri line from telecom, but after its hooked up to the total control ras Hiperdsp modem i get Carrier as green but Alarm is still glowing red. can someone help me what this indication mean and any configuration changes are needed in the ras box.

getting correct values

I have been trying to get MRTG to work for almost a week now and can't seem to get it right. I am using a USR total control with the following configuration: Slot Device Version 1 3com PRI-T1/E1 NAC 4.0.0 2 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 3 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 4 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 5 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 6 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 7 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 8 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 9 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 10 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 11 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 12 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 13 3COM Quad V.34 Digital Modem NAC 3.0.0 16 3COM ISDN NETServer NAC 7.0.0 17 3COM Network Management Card 2.0 21 3COM Bellcore Approved Long Haul Dual T1 NIC 36 3COM High Speed Ethernet ( with V.35 ) NIC 37 3COM Ethernet NIC ?? A lot of the information I find is not valid. The OID's are not right. What I would like to do is be bale to View current users, temp, cpu load, memory use and whatever else I can monitor. Currently my user average shows 6 users online when there is really only one. You can look here <http://www.cyberspeed.us/MRTG> Thanks in advance

ISDN Loopback test?
by Dr. David T. Thomas 01 Aug '03

How can I perform a loopback test to see if my ISDN lines are functioning properly? I am using a USRobotics Total Control NETServer/16 I-modem. Many thanks, David T. Thomas

RE: [USR-TC] PRI vs. Channelized T1

Just a couple observations - MoH works fine in 4.5, been using it for a long time now with no problems, just not on 3.5.12. DSP 3.5.12 is buggy - 3.5.105 and 3.5.109 seem a lot better ARC 5.3.3 has a few minor glitches, 5.3.110 runs a lot better. - Joel -----Original Message----- From: Adam Barnhill [mailto:adam@semo.net] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 9:45 AM To: 'Discussion relating to the 3Com/US Robotics Total Controlmodemsystems.' Subject: RE: [USR-TC] PRI vs. Channelized T1 You were supplied with TCS 4.5 (V.92) code. Which translates into being able to use (V.44, Quick Connect phase 1 & 2, and PCM Upstream up to 33k). I have V.44 and Quick connect enabled, but disabled PCM Upstream and MoH. It's my understanding that MoH was not fully implemented in TCS 4.5 anyway. If you plan on using the supplied code on your cards you need to install that TCM080206.zip file first. You'll then need to install the following: Hiper DSP 3.5.12 (if you ever downgrade code, pay attention to the release notes or use DSP for doorstop) Hiper ARC 5.3.3 (we had crash/reboot issues with this code, and are currently running 5.3.108) Hiper NMC 8.6.3 http://totalservice.utstar.com/Matrixs/tcsmatrix.cfm Should you choose to purchase a support contract for your chassis, I'd suggest you try one of the following. There are more, but these are the ones I'm familiar with. http://www.source-t.com/ http://www.solunet.com/ For use of the knowledgebase just register and search. No Support Contract necessary. http://totalservice.utstar.com/ Good luck, Adam -----Original Message----- From: usr-tc-bounces(a)mailman.xmission.com [mailto:usr-tc-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Scott Wiersum Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 8:07 AM To: usr-tc(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: [USR-TC] PRI vs. Channelized T1 I bought a TC chassis with two (2) HyperDSP cards, a HyperARC, and HiperNMC card. I was going to use it as a backup chassis for my existing Quad modem chassing running with a Channelized T1, but now I'm ordering a PRI circuit to replace the T1, since it's cheaper and more reliable, and I want to use new chassis on the PRI. How do I tell if the new HiperDSP cards are flashed for T1 or PRI? I'm running TCM v6.0.23.
