ISDN BRI Line Configuration Requirements

Before using a Cisco 1700 router with an ISDN BRI WAN interface card installed, you must order a correctly configured ISDN BRI line from your local telecommunications service provider.

This process varies dramatically from provider to provider on a national and international basis. However, following are some general guidelines:

•Ask for two channels to be called by one number.

•Ask for delivery of calling-line identification. This is also known as caller ID or automatic number identification (ANI).
