AS5400

[kendon3733]

Hey all,

I have not programmed voice in years and I am programming an AS5400 as PRI.

I setup the primary D channel just fine but when I try to do the backup D channel

it gives me this error:

CCT_ATT_SE_VOICE#conf t

Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

CCT_ATT_SE_VOICE(config)#controller T1 7/0:1

%The Primary-group is already defined

%The first definition of the primary-group must be removed

before the primary-group can be redefined

CCT_ATT_SE_VOICE(config-controller)#

I must be missing something. Any ideas.

Thanks.

Hi Kendon,

Looking at your config you've configured the backup d channel on the same controller (T1 7/0) , typically you'd see the backup d channel configured on a seperate T1 controller which is why I think you're seeing that error message.

Also, here's a doc that may help:  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk801/tk379/technologies_configuration_example09186a00800a6bf2.shtml

HTH,

I will take a look at the document. This is a channelized DS3 so I should have 28 T1's so I don't get why I can't have a primary and a backup unless I need to program the DS3 different.

[kendon3733]

I am not sure why - but I removed the T1's after shutting down the T3 controller and then readded the T1's and now I am able to add the primary and backup Pri's.

!

controller T1 7/0:1

shutdown

framing esf

pri-group timeslots 1-24 nfas_d primary nfas_int 0 nfas_group 1

!

controller T1 7/0:2

shutdown

framing esf

pri-group timeslots 1-24 nfas_d backup nfas_int 1 nfas_group 1

!

controller T1 7/0:3

framing esf

pri-group timeslots 1-24 nfas_d none nfas_int 2 nfas_group 1

!

Very weird, I may have not done it in the correct order or something.

Thanks for the help.

One last question when I look at my T3 controller it says the line code is B3ZS and I need it to be B8ZS. Do you know how I change this, it is not under the controller itself.

[clileikis]

Hi Kendon,

You're probably in the controller t3 interface, you'll need to move to the individual t1 controllers to configure the B8ZS linecoding, ex.  controllter T1 7/0:1

[kendon3733]

That is what I though as well but there is no line code under the individual controllers:

CCT_ATT_SE_VOICE(config)#controller T1 7/0:1

CCT_ATT_SE_VOICE(config-controller)#?

Controller configuration commands:

  cas-custom     cas group customization configuration

  channel-group  Specify the timeslots to channel-group mapping for an interface

  default        Set a command to its defaults

  description    Controller specific description

  ds0            ds0 commands

  ds0-group      Replacement of cas-group. Configure group of timeslots to a particular signaling type

  exit           Exit from controller configuration mode

  extsig         Configure an external signalling protocol - { mgcp }

  fdl            Specify the FDL standard for a DS1 data link

  framing        Specify the type of Framing on a DS1 link

  guard-timer    Guard timer (0-20) for xcsp calls - timer duration and accept/reject on expiry

  help           Description of the interactive help system

  loopback       Put the entire T1 line into loopback

  no             Negate a command or set its defaults

  pri-group      Configure the specified timeslots for PRI

  shutdown       Shut down a DS1 link (send Blue Alarm)

  snmp           Modify SNMP controller parameters

  trunk-group    Configure interface to be in a trunk group

  voice-class    specify a voice class

Also, do you know where to change the bearer capability on the AS5400?

The test calls are failing due to the bearer capability being set to data.

Thanks,

[kendon3733]

I found and fixed the bearer capability but now I get a modem tone when I make a test call.

[kendon3733]

I was missing the voice-port 7/0:1:D on the pots dial-peer.

I have the test call working now.

thanks,
