CAUTION: Before you begin to configure the BRI-ST card, be sure to wait
3 minutes after you insert the BRI-ST card into the chassis.
To configure for ISDN BRI signaling:

2In the T1/ISDN Board List, find the MAC address of the BRI-ST board that
you recorded before you inserted the card into the chassis.
3Select the BRI-ST card from the list and click Modify.
4Scroll through the Channel List to verify that the system lists all eight
channels. The channel numbers appear after the MAC address, separated
by a hyphen.
Example:
2...00:01:03:48:e0:4e-4...New Trunk.
The 4 after the hyphen indicates channel number 4.
5To change the name of the BRI-ST card, edit the contents of the Board
Name field to help you to identify the BRI-ST card in device lists.
6Enable the On Line check box.
7Click OK.
To connect the BRI line and activate the span:
