I'm having difficulty getting a PRI working between asterisk and a Merlin Legend. I have been attempting to get it going as esf, b8zs & 5ess (although I have tried other switchtypes...). I found the following info in the Legend docs: If the switch type is 5ESS, the protocol MUST be set for ATT Custom. If switch type is DMS-100, the protocol MUST be set for NTNAPRI The README in libpri implies that switchtype=5ess is ATT Custom from README: ...it has been tested work with NI-2, Nortel DMS-100, and Lucent 5E Custom protocols on switches from Nortel and Lucent. Is the protocol set to ATT Custom with the switchtype=5ess parameter? Are the terms ATT Custom or NTNAPRI meaningfull to asterisk? Thanks, John
Can you please say what problems you're having? Does the board come up correctly and display a green LED? Are there errors on the console Etc...etc Thanks Scott M.

>Can you please say what problems you're having? >Does the board come up correctly and display a green LED? >Are there errors on the consoleThe legend looks OK, When the PRI is idle, it too looks OK. When a call is routed from asterisk to the LEGEND, * can no longer find the d-channel and the pri is reset. This problem seems to be due to the limited pri implementation available on the Legend, thus the protocol question. Additionally, there is a legend forum and one of the doc sheets mentioned that pri providers have reported not being able to see the dchannel with various pieces of equipment. John>Scott M.
