[Asterisk-Users] Two questions for Asterisk setup (Definity G3R and NFAS Trunk Gro ups)
Hi, I'm a lab manager / supervisor at our labs. We've had Asterisk in use for over a year directly hooked to the PSTN - a no brainer for configuration (although I had to fix some AT&T specific things in libpri). Right now I have two big challenges. One is to hook our box up lineside to a Lucent Definity G3R. Avaya is chasing this from their end, but we had the highest level of tech support trying to work this. Does anyone here have a known good configuration (including firmware release/etc of the T1 cards) for a PRI configuration? I get layer two up, and a d-channel established, but then I get no messages and the d-channel goes back down. I'm || this close to tracing the call states in TR-41459 to determine which side is not responding - I suspect the G3R... The second issue (due to the issue above) is that I ordered a 9 PRI trunk group from AT&T. With a "trunkgroup" configuration, I can get two of the T1's operational, but I want to add a third T1 to the trunkgroup. The problem is that there is only a primary and backup d-channel. Thus, the third T1 has no d-channel. When I bring the third span into the trunkgroup, Asterisk complains that "PRI signalling is requested, but line is 869? signalling" and exits. Is this an Asterisk bug, or do I have it configured improperly. Below is how I have it configured zaptel.conf span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs span=2,2,0,esf,b8zs span=3,3,0,esf,b8zs zapata.conf [trunkgroup] trunkgroup=>1,24,48 spanmap=>1,1,1 spanmap=>1,2,2 spanmap=>1,3,3 [channels] switchtype=4ess context=default signalling=pri_cpe nsf=sdn group=1 channel => 1-23,25-47,49-72 Thanks for any help.
