Configuring ISDN on the WAN Port (43x, 44x, 53x, and 54x) 71

If you have only one local telephone number, enter the same number for both channels.

2If you are planning to use channel B2 as a separate line, and your telecommunications carrier provided only one telephone number for all channels, specify a subaddress using:

SETDefault !3.2 -PATH LocalSubAddr = “<string>”

3Enable the SpidWIZard parameter and re-enable the path by entering:

Europe, Australia,

and Asia

SETDefault !3 -PATH SpidWIZard = Trigger

SETDefault !3 -PATH CONTrol = Enable

The bridge/router automatically detects the switch type and SPIDs of the ISDN line and disables the parameter. If you change your local telephone number, you will have to re-enable the SpidWIZard parameter.

Do not disable the SpidWIZard parameter while it is detecting the switch type and SPIDs. If you do, you will have to restart the bridge/router.

If the SpidWIZard parameter does not detect the switch type and SPIDs correctly, complete the procedure in the next section.

Before beginning this procedure, complete the following tasks:

Cable the ISDN port and connect it to the telephone network.

Log on to the system with Network Manager privilege.

To configure an ISDN port in Europe, Australia, or Asia, or if the SpidWIZard parameter was not successful in the U.S and Canada, follow these steps:

Installations in Hong Kong should be configured to originate and receive ISDN calls at 64 Kbps. Due to the variety of ISDN swtiches in the Hong Kong Telecom network, the SuperStack II NETBuilder SI bridge/router does not properly handle rate-adapted ISDN calls at 56 Kbps.

1Set the switch type. By default, the switch type is set to European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). If you need to change the switch type setting, see Table 16 and use:

SETDefault !<connectorID> -PATH SwitchType = ETSI NTT KDD
