About SPIDs

Depending on the type of ISDN switch protocol you use, you may be required to enter SPIDs in the ISDN Line Configuration screen. Generally, SPIDs are used with North American (United States and Canada) switch protocols.

The exact format of ISDN SPIDs is sometimes a point of confusion. This is because several formats exist, and some formats allow variations.

The table below displays the general SPID formats for the types of North American ISDN switch protocols supported by the Netopia Router. The formats shown are a subset of possible SPID formats, but in most cases they should work.

In the following table, xxxxxxx represents the directory number assigned to your ISDN line, and yyy represents your area code.
