The directory number for each of the ISDN B-channels must be
defined. The directory numbers
must
be set the same as the value
provided by your ISDN service for this Orbitor.
The directory numbers will be the ISDN phone numbers used to
establish a call between the Orbitors. The SPIDs are used to register
the ISDN interface with the central switch.
For most European installations the switch type will be NET3 which only requires
one directory number.
Most North American installations use the switch type NI-1 and require the use of
two directory numbers as well as two SPID (Service Profile Identifiers) values.
Once the ISDN switch type and directory numbers have been configured, the Orbitor must
be reset for the new values to take effect and for the ISDN BRI interface to register with
the central switch.

Once the Orbitor has restarted it is ready to establish ISDN
connections.
With the ISDN numbers and switch type defined, an ISDN call may be placed from one
Orbitor to another. The calls may be placed manually or automatically. The automatic
call features available are Auto-Call and IP Address Connect. An Auto-Call connection is
established each time the Orbitor starts up. An IP Address Connect call is established to a
specifically configured remote Orbitor when certain IP traffic is received from the local
LAN.
The configuration options described here are only for initial set up and configuration
purposes. For more complete information on all of the configuration parameters
available please refer to the “ISDNMENU.PDF” Menu Reference Manual file on the
accompanying disks.
