Provisioning
This section provides the ISDN provisioning steps.
•
See the
Cisco BTS Command Line Interface Reference Guide
for explanations of each token in the
command.
•
After entering each command, press the
Return
(
Enter
) key.
•
See the
section for information regarding profiles.
•
Performing steps 1, 2 and 3 provisions ISDN FAS for ISDN backhaul using RUDP.
•
Performing steps 1, 2 and 4 provisions ISDN NFAS for ISDN backhaul using RUDP, which includes
D channel backup.
•
See the
section for information on provisioning for International PRI.
•
See the
section for information on provisioning certain specific PBX
variants.
•
See
Chapter 2, “Multiple Trunk Groups on a Single ISDN D-Channel”
for provisioning multiple
trunk groups on a single D-channel.
•
See
Chapter 3, “ISDN Backhaul Support Using IUA/SCTP”
in Chapter 3 to provision ISDN
backhaul for IUA/SCTP.
Note
On a big, fast gateway (BFG), there is no concept of a slot number from a PRI backhaul perspective,
although a BFG resides on a particular slot in the chassis. The architecture of a BFG is such that each
slot acts as an independent gateway in itself. The Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch addresses individual BFG
cards by the card IP address—so the slot number is zero. Current CLI implementation uses a total of 16
bits with the D channel slot represented by 8 bits and the D channel port represented by 8 bits. To
interface with a BFG, set the slot to 0 when the port is greater than 255 (8 bits).
Note
The proprietary-supp token must be set to 8 when provisioning NI2.
The following steps provide the commands and examples for ISDN provisioning:
Step 1
Log on to the active EMS by entering the following commands on a console that can communicate via
IP with the active EMS.
Note
To verify which EMS is currently active, log on to any EMS or CA/Feature Server (FS) machine
as a root user, and enter the command
nodestat
. This displays the IP address of the active EMS.
Then
exit
.
a.
Open a UNIX shell or XTerm window (or, in Windows, choose
Start > Run > Command prompt
).
b.
At the UNIX shell prompt, enter
ssh
and the IP address or domain name of the active EMS.
ssh -l <CLI username> ip address
c.
At the password prompt, enter the password for the CLI username.
<password for CLI username>
The system responds with a prompt.
