I've been working with a telco for the past two days trying to get a PRI span up and running. This is a small-ish telco and I get the feeling they don't do this very often. Anyway, they specified a pretty standard setup: ni2 switchtype, esf framing, b8zs coding, etc. All of my b-channels are up, but we're having a heck of a time getting the d-channel to come up. He finds out that this is an asterisk system and says that to get this working, I'm going to need to turn on "call-by-call" trunking. Have any of you heard of this? I certainly haven't. A quick google search doesn't turn up anything. Thoughts? This is a Sangoma A102 card, by the way. In this case, though, I don't think that's of any relevance. -Erik -- Erik Anderson http://andersonfam.org
