ISDN Errors

The following table describes ISDN standard cause values that are sent from the ISDN switch to the router to indicate ISDN call status. Although the cause values are standardized, each ISDN service provider phrases the cause differently. Therefore, the causes shown in the table might not be the exact messages that appear on your television monitor.
