module, and the order in which the lines/trunks are assigned
■ The Service Profile Identifier (SPID) and Directory Number (DN)
associated with each channel on each 800 NI-BRI module
■ Whether the disconnect signals for loop-start lines/trunks are reliable or
unreliable, and the length of the Hold disconnect interval
Information the local telephone company can provide includes:
■ Detailed T1 parameters
■ Detailed NI-1 BRI parameters
■ The number of digits sent on DID trunks
■ Which lines/trunks, if any, require a toll-call prefix
■ The telephone number for each incoming line/trunk
