ISDN Switches
Depending on the type of ISDN lines you are using, your service
provider may assign zero, one, or two SPIDs per line. Refer to
Table2-15 below.
Automatic Quad BRI Software Update
The Quad BRI is expected to have a software version at least as
recent as that of the system to which it is connected. If, upon reboot,
the system detects an older software version on the Quad BRI, it
automatically updates the Quad BRI software. The download is
accompanied by an explanatory message.
Caution
Do not turn off your system during the download process.
