ISDN ADDRESSES AND IDENTIFIERS

The TA contains several stored numbersSPID, DN, and TEI (Terminal Endpoint Identifier)used by the network to identify the TA.

Each logical ISDN link has an SPID that defines the profile of services and parameters used by the terminal. The SPID is selected by the network carrier and must be configured into the TA before it can be used. The SPID is a string of characters or digits, depending on the switch.

The DN is part of the service profile and is analogous to the telephone number on the standard telephone network. The DN identifies incoming calls. On some switches (NTI and NI-1), the DN must also be configured into the TA; on other switches (AT&T), the DN is not required.
