Select function from above or <RET> for previous menu:

Information for the new device may be configured in any order. You have control over how much information is specified for each device, and the order in which it is entered.

We will begin by specifying the type of device. We need to determine if the device will use ISDN Line Protocol (choice 1), Frame Relay (choice 2), or X.25 (choice 3).This device is an ISDN device, so we will press 1 for “ISDN Information” from the Device Table Configuration Menu.

The ISDN Configuration Menu will then be displayed with the preconfigured default values:
