Is there a way to see error counts on the T1 of a PRI? Hooked up to asterisk via a digium TE122. Looking for something to make sure I'm not getting any CRC, framing or other errors on the T1.

The 658 has an ethernet port for management and grabbing the stats of the T1 line itself. For an ISDN T1 PRI, set channels 1-23 to T1 Voice and Channel 24 to T1 Data, otherwise the B channel won't come up. You may need a DB15male and a DB15female to RJ45 adapters as not all of these units on Ebay come with them. The T1 from the phone company connects to the Network connector(db15 male on the unit) and the Terminal connector (db15 female) goes to Asterisk. These units started appearing on Ebay at the under $100 price mark about a year ago or so. If you buy new, I think they are around $1200 in the US. And if you are not sure how to configure them, ADC is quite accommodating and I have configured more than one and can assist.

Hello,
In Asterisk you can type "zap show status" to at least show you some
basic error information:
CLI> zap show status
Description Alarms IRQ bpviol CRC4
wanpipe1 card 0 OK 0 0 0
wanpipe2 card 1 OK 0 0 0
wanpipe3 card 2 OK 0 0 0
wanpipe4 card 3 RED 0 0 0
I also just want to mention that on Sangoma T1/E1 cards you get
several tools for looking at the errors and statistics for each
circuit with the wanpipe drivers.
Here are some examples of the info you get:
----------------------------------------------
w3g1: AFT OPERATIONAL STATISTICS
----------------------------------------------
Number of frames transmitted: 17
Number of bytes transmitted: 136
Transmit Throughput: 0
Transmit frames discarded (length error): 0
Transmit frames realigned: 0
Number of frames received: 17
Number of bytes received: 136
Receive Throughput: 0
Received frames discarded (too short): 0
Received frames discarded (too long): 0
Received frames discarded (link inactive): 0
HDLC link active/inactive and loopback statistics
Times that the link went active: 17
Times that the link went inactive (modem failure): 16
Times that the link went inactive (keepalive failure): 0
link looped count: 0
And there is a lot more information in there that helps to debug and
monitor troubled circuits.
