ISDN BRI Line Configuration Requirements
Before using a Cisco 1700 router with an ISDN BRI WAN interface card
installed, you must order a correctly configured ISDN BRI line from your local
telecommunications service provider.
This process varies dramatically from provider to provider on a national and
international basis. However, following are some general guidelines:
• Ask for two channels to be called by one number.
• Ask for delivery of calling-line identification. This is also known as caller ID
or automatic number identification (ANI).
