Setting Up Telco Services

B-3

Not all telephone service providers are aware of IOCs. Even though these providers may not understand IOCs, they will be familiar with the features and parameters that the IOC defines and can provision the ISDN line accordingly.

For a complete listing of all IOCs, or for more information about IOCs, refer to the Bell Communications Research web site at ‘www.bellcore.com’.

In addition, Appendix A contains a reference table summarizing the recommended provisioning parameters offered by various North American ISDN switches.

Switch protocol type

To configure the Netopia Router, your ISDN service provider must provide you with the switch protocol type used on your ISDN line.

Outside North America only

The Netopia Router supports the following protocols:

EuroISDN (also known as ETSI or NET3)

Japanese NTT

Australian TS013

North America only

The Netopia Router supports the following protocols:

An AT&T 5ESS, Northern Telecom DMS-100, or a Siemens EWSD running National ISDN-1 (NI-1)

AT&T 5ESS custom (multipoint or point-to-point)

Northern Telecom DMS-100 custom

IDSL (ISDN Digital Subscriber Line)

Ascend MP+

Directory and SPID numbers (U models only)

A North American ISDN line requires one or more directory numbers (DN) and usually one or more service profile identifier (SPID) numbers. Your ISDN service provider supplies this information when you order your ISDN line or after your ISDN line is set up. Once you obtain this information, record it on the worksheet (see

page B-6).

Note: If the switch on your line is an AT&T 5ESS custom point-to-point or IDSL, you will receive no SPIDs, just a single DN.

Circuit ID number (U models only)

A North American ISDN line has a unique physical address called a circuit ID. You should obtain this number from your ISDN service provider and record it on the worksheet (see page B-6). The circuit number can help locate your line and its associated circuit in case of a problem.
