This chapter describes the ISDN commands and GWCON commands. It includes the following sections:
Notes:
Table 66 describes the ISDN configuration commands, and the following
sections explain the commands. Enter these commands at the ISDN
Config> prompt.
Table 66. ISDN Configuration Command Summary
| Command | Function |
|---|---|
| ? (Help) | Displays all the commands available for this command level or lists the options for specific commands (if available). See "Getting Help". |
| Block-calls | Blocks incoming calls from a specific caller. |
| Disable | Valid only for BRI. Disables Power Source 1 detection. |
| Enable | Valid only for BRI. Enables Power Source 1 detection. |
| List | Displays the ISDN configuration. |
| Modem | Accesses a command line that allows you to configure a digital modem adapter. |
| Remove | Removes DN0 entries from the ISDN configuration. |
| Set | Sets the frame size, local address, no-answer timeouts, number of retries after no answer, type of ISDN switch, directory numbers, SPIDS, TEI and bandwidth. |
| Cause Code | Stops further processing attempts to establish a connection through an interface. |
| Exit | Returns you to the previous command level. See "Exiting a Lower Level Environment". |
Use the block-calls commands to block incoming calls. Caller numbers to be blocked must be added to the authentication list. The maximum number of caller blocked calls is 16 per interface.
Call block can be used for:
Syntax:
The disable command disables Power Source 1 detection. If your switch does not supply Power Source 1, you should disable PS1.
| Note: | This command is valid only for BRI. |
Syntax:
| Note: | On the U interface ISDN BRIs, there is no ps1 detect circuitry and the value of this field is ignored. |
The enable command enables Power Source 1 detection. If your ISDN switch supplies Power Source 1 (PS1), you should enable PS1 on the interface. This causes the interface to detect when the switch shuts down and to clear all information about the last call before it reestablishes the connection. For Euro-NET3 switches supporting restricted power mode, PS1 must be enabled.
Do not enable PS1 if your switch does not supply Power Source 1.
| Note: | This command is valid only for BRI. |
Syntax:
| Note: | On the U interface ISDN BRIs, there is no ps1 detect circuitry and the value of this field is ignored. |
The list command displays the current ISDN configuration.
Syntax:
Example: list
ISDN Configuration Local Network Address Name = line-1-local Local Network Address = 1-508-555-1234 Local Network Subaddress = 21 Maximum frame size in bytes = 2048 Outbound call address Timeout = 180 Retries = 2 Switch-Variant/Service-Type = US National ISDN-1 Multipoint Selection = Point-to-Point DN0 (Directory Number 0) = 5551234 DN1 (Directory Number 1) = 5553456 Service Profile ID (B1) = 91955555550100 Service Profile ID (B2) = 91955555550101 TEI for B-Channel 1 = Automatic TEI for B-Channel 2 = Automatic TEI for X.25 = Automatic PS1 detect = Disabled No circuit address accounting information being kept.
The modem command is a secondary menu under the base ISDN network configuration menu. It contains configuration information that is specific to the Digital Modem adapter.
Syntax:
Issuing the modem command at the ISDN Config> prompt presents the modem Config> prompt. The following example assumes the digital modem adapter is installed as the tenth ISDN device interface.
Example:
Config>n 10 ISDN user configuration ISDN Config: 10>modem Digital Modem Configuration Modem config>?
Table 67 describes the ISDN digital modem configuration commands, and
the following sections explain the commands. Enter these commands at
the Modem Config> prompt.
REFID='SECONDDRAFT'.
Table 67. ISDN Modem Configuration Command Summary
| Command | Function |
|---|---|
| ? (Help) | Displays all the commands available for this command level or lists the options for specific commands (if available). See "Getting Help". |
| List | Displays the digital modem adapter configuration. |
| Reset-to-Defaults | Resets all previously set modem settings to their original (from factory) settings. |
| Set | Sets various digital modem adapter settings. |
| Exit | Returns you to the previous command level. See "Exiting a Lower Level Environment". |
The list command displays the current digital modem adapter configuration.
Syntax:
Example: list
Digital Modem Configuration:
Modem timers:
Answer delay = 2 seconds
Modem strings:
Initialization string = ATE0V1W1\V1S6=0
Dial string = ATD
Answer String = ATA
| Note: | Changing these parameters could adversely affect operation of the Digital Modem adapter. |
The set command configures the answer delay as well as the answer, dial, and initialization strings. If a specific value is not specified, the default values shown in Reset-to-Defaults are used.
Syntax:
The reset-to-default command resets the configuration of the digital modem adapter to its original (factory) settings.
Syntax:
If you are using a K56 Flex modem, you should contact the modem manufacturer to obtain a V90 upgrade. Due the particular nature of K56 Flex protocol, your digital modem might not work with all versions of K56 Flex protocol. If you are unable to obtain the V90 upgrade, ensure you have the latest version of K56 Flex provided by your modem manufacturer.
The remove command lets you remove DN0 or DN1 entries that you set previously with the set DN0 or set DN1 command.
Syntax:
The set command configures frame size, addresses, and timeouts. It also specifies the switch-variant and TEI number. For PRI, the terminal endpoint identifier (TEI) is always zero (0).
Syntax:
For PPP dial circuit interfaces, you can change the PPP MRU using the set lcp options command. The ISDN frame size must include enough bytes for the PPP MRU and the PPP header.
| Note: | If you choose a frame size of 1024, PPP will not work over the ISDN dial circuit, since the minimum frame size for PPP is 1500. |
For FR dial circuit interfaces, you can change the frame size using the set framesize command. The ISDN frame size must be greater than or equal to the FR frame size.
If a dial circuit's frame size is greater then the ISDN frame size, then the dial circuit's frame size is decreased at router initialization.
Example:
set framesize Framesize in bytes (1024/2048/4096/8192) [1024]? 2048
Example:
set frame-type Circuit config: 10>set frame type
For T1 PRI:
Valid Values:
Default Value: a
Valid Values: B8ZS or AMI
Default Values: B8ZS
Valid Values: Enabled or Disabled
Default Value: Disabled
Valid Values:
Default Value: ANSI-T1.403
For E1 PRI:
Valid Values: HDB3 or AMI
Default Value: HDB3
Valid Values:Enabled or Disabled
Default Value:Disabled
Valid Values: Any valid address
Default Value: None
Example:
set local-address-name Assign local address name []? line-1-local
Some service providers require that you configure the line as multipoint regardless of how many devices are on the line. Check with your ISDN service provider.
Example:
set multipoint-selection Multipoint Selection [PP]? mp
If you set the switch-variant to INS64, you cannot change theretries-call-address default. It is fixed at 2.
Valid Values: 0 to 30
Default Value: 23 (2 for BRI)
Example:
set spid Enter B-Channel Number [1]? 1 Enter Service Profile ID (SPID) [123]? 91955555550100
If you set the switch-variant to INS64, you cannot change timeout-call-address. It is fixed at 180.
Valid Values: 0 to 65535 seconds
Default Value: 180 seconds
Example:
set timeout-call-address Outbound call address Time-out (secs) [0]? 180
Valid Values Basic Rate Interface (BRI):
Default Value: NET 3
Valid Values ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI)/Channelized T1/E1:
Valid Values: wink_em, delay_em, or imm_em
Default Value: none
Example:
Set switch-variant cas CAS-Protocol? imm_em
Valid Value: r2
Default Value: none
| Note: | CAS does not have D-channel. The D-channel call management features of
ISDN are not supported. The D-channel features are:
|
Default Value: DMSPRI
Example:
set dn0 Enter DN0 (Directory-Number-0) [ ]? 5088981234
USNI-1 and 5ESS switches require that you set the TEI for each B-channel. If you set the switch variant to one of those switches, the set tei command prompts you for a B-channel number. See *** for additional information.
Example 1:
set tei TEI [AUTO]? 60
Example 2:
set tei TEI 0 or TEI 1 [1]? 1 TEI [AUTO]?
Example 3:
set tei 2 TEI []? 21

While ISDN has its own monitoring process for monitoring purposes, the router also displays configuration information and complete statistics for devices and circuits when you use the interface, statistics, and error commands from the GWCON environment. You can also use the GWCON test command to test DCEs and circuits.
| Note: | Issuing the test command to the ISDN interface causes the current calls to be dropped and re-dialed. |
Use the interface command at the GWCON prompt (+) to display statistics for ISDN interfaces and dial circuits.
To display statistics for a dial circuit, enter the interface command followed by the interface number of the dial circuit. For ISDN interfaces, information is displayed on a D and B channel basis. (This is the same information that is displayed by the ISDN statistics command.)

The following list describes the output for both ISDN and dial circuits.
Enter the configuration command at the GWCON (+) prompt to display information about the router hardware and software. It includes a section that displays the interfaces configured on the router along with the state of the interface.
If a dial circuit is configured to dial-on-demand, the state of the dial circuit is always displayed as Up whether or not it is connected. In this case Up means that the dial circuit is either connected or available.
If a dial circuit is configured as a static circuit, the state indicates Up only if the dial circuit is connected. (Refer to "Configuration" for a sample output from the configuration command.
