IDSL, CMN if your leased line service provider uses Copper Mountain equipment (this is the default for model R3100-I)

Note: The Switch Type, SPIDs, and Directory Numbers apply only to Switched ISDN service. If you select either IDSL option, these fields are not displayed.

If you select ISDN, Leased as your circuit type, select Data Rate (kbps). From the pop-up menu, select the appropriate B-channel, such as B1, B2, B1+B2, or 2B+D. Then skip to step 8.

It is possible to configure the router for any available circuit type: ISDN, Switched, ISDN, Leased, IDSL, Ascend, or IDSL, CMN, depending on the switch gear you are connected to.

If you create a connection profile using a particular datalink encapsulation method, that profile will take precedence whenever you connect to a line that uses that datalink encapsulation. If there is no connection profile with the datalink encapsulation method that the line uses, the router will default to using the default profile. See “The Default Profile” on page 8-6for more information.

2.Select Switch Type and press Return. From the pop-up menu, select the switch protocol your ISDN service provider uses.

North American options are:

Auto-Detect(the default): using this feature, the router will attempt to detect what type of switch you are connecting to, what your directory numbers and SPIDs are, and configure itself accordingly.

If you select Auto-Detect from the popup menu, you may see the following screen if the router has not
