Examples of Using the Setup Command Facility to Configure Interface Parameters
ISDN BRI Line Configuration
Before using a router with an ISDN basic rate interface (BRI) interface, you must order a correctly
configured ISDN
BRI line from your local telecommunications service provider.
The ordering process varies from provider to provider and from country to country. However, some
general guidelines apply:
•
Ask for two channels to be called by one number.
•
Ask for delivery of calling line identification, also known as Caller ID or automated number
identification (ANI).
•
If the router will be the only device attached to the ISDN BRI line, ask for point-to-point service
and a data-only line.
•
If you plan to connect another ISDN device (such as an ISDN telephone) to the ISDN BRI line
through the router, ask for point-to-multipoint service (subaddressing is required) and a
voice-and-data line.
ISDN BRI Provisioning by Switch Type
ISDN BRI provisioning refers to the types of services provided by the ISDN BRI line. Although
provisioning is performed by your ISDN
BRI service provider, you must tell the provider what you want.
Table 2 lists the provisioning you that should order for the router, based on switch type.
