(usr-tc) GTD5 NFAS and Dual Pri Card
by USRobotics TC Mailing List 28 Jan '00

28 Jan '00

I have a TC Chassis with a Dual Pri Card (3.1.5), 12 A/D Quad's (6.1.6), NSC (3.8.1) & NMC (6.1.17). This chassis was originally setup and working on a DMS100 switch, but I've since moved it to another location which employs a GTD5 switch, same Telco. The new location only has one PRI, and I have it plugged into the first Port. All lights on the chassis are green. The chassis is not answering and only returning a busy signal, not a fast busy, but a normal busy. The Telco is reporting that they are receiving a "D channel protocol error." I have the following set Framing - ds1ESF Line Coding - b8zs Switch Type - 5ESS I have also double checked that the A/D's are setup for PRI. The Telco is suggesting that I turn off NFAS, but I'm not quite sure how to do that or if that would even fix the problem. I've also searched through the 3Com Knowledge Base, List Archive, TC Newsgroup and the net itself. Nothing yet. Any help most appreciated. - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) AMI/D4 provisioning on CT1
by Bryan Wann 28 Jan '00

28 Jan '00

I don't like surprises. Especially when I order a CT1 provisioned with B8ZS/ESF, and on the day of the turnup the switch tech tells me "oh, your stuff is configured wrong, it needs to be set up for AMI and D4, the DTC you're on can't do B8ZS/ESF on this T. Don't worry, I set your stuff up like everyone else's." AFAIK, it is a trunk-side circuit (don't hold me to this). We have no problem hitting 45333-50333 both local and long-distance dialing into the TC at this POP, with an assortment of modems. Will AMI/D4 cause things to break, or should I contact the telco and beg to have it reprovisioned for B8ZS/ESF? --- Bryan Wann bwann(a)cwis.net CWIS Internet Services http://www.cwis.net - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) Equipment List Confirmation

I am unable to get confirmation for my equipment list membership. I have mailed confirmation according to instructions several times but each time I get a message back that the number I have put after "OK" is not right yet I put in the actual number mailed to me by Sparklist. I have been typing OK######E on the Subjet line. Can someone help me out of this?

(usr-tc) ARC Filters
by Brian 27 Jan '00

27 Jan '00

Is their anything for ARC filters equivelent to: access-list 101 permit tcp any any established or do you have to parse the entire access list for each packet? Also, am I correct in saying something like this: access-list 101 permit tcp any 208.206.76.57 0.0.0.0 eq 20 would get broken into two lines on an ARC filter, like this: 010 AND tcp-dst-port = 20; 020 PERMIT dst-addr = 208.206.76.57/32; you can't do it on one line, it takes 2 right?

(usr-tc) Not accepting ISDN calls... still.
by Stephen Amadei 27 Jan '00

27 Jan '00

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.
