Troubleshooting ISDN-PRI Test Call Problems
An ISDN-PRI test call is a diagnostic call placed across an ISDN-PRI
user-network interface to a previously-designated number. An ISDN-PRI test call
is also a maintenance procedure concerned with the identification and verification
ISDN-PRI user-network interface problems. The ISDN-PRI test call can access
ISDN-PRI trunks only.

interface between the
switch and the
endpoint equipment,
including the premise
distribution wiring,
endpoint equipment,
and any other noise-
