NI-1 BRI Compliance Enhancements
This feature enhances the Meridian 1 functional protocol to be compatible
with the National ISDN-1 (NI-1) ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) voice and
data standard for line application. The NI-1 protocol is configured in Overlay
27, which is used for ISDN BRI administration, by entering “6” against the
PRID prompt. This protocol information is downloaded to the Multi-purpose
ISDN Signaling Processor’s (MISP) network layer for handling ISDN BRI
line application interface with NI-1 compatible terminals.
Another enhancement introduced by this feature is that the alphanumeric
value for the Service Profile Identification (SPID) has been expanded from
9 to 20 characters (although the NI-1 standard only requires that the SPID
range be from 9-20, the Meridian 1 implementation supports 1-20). The SPID
is configured in Overlay 27 (by administering the Terminal Service Profiles)
for the network side, and programmed on NI-1 compatible ISDN BRI
terminals for the user side (both entries for the SPID must be the same).
