What I need to simulate a PSTN

Edip Gumuskaya
Level 1
Level 1

Hi All,

Working towards me CCIE Voice Lab exam.....

I have 3745 Router with:

1 x NM-HDV

3 x PVDM-12

1 x VWIC-1MFT-E1 Module.

1 x 7960 Phone

I have placed a Loopback cable in the single E1 socket, but I get "RX <- BAD FRAME" received when debug isdn q921 is turned on. So this will not help me simulate a PSTN for me to see Q931 traffic.

Would a single VWIC-2MFT-E1 card be enough to simulate a ISDN q931 and q921 message if I loop the ports together with a E1 crossover and set one as USER and the other NETWORK?

I am trying to go for least cost solution with what I already have?

Thanks,

Ed

You need two different routers. You are connecting them back to back. You cant do this on the same router.

You need 1 router acting as PSTN

you need another router acting as the User side
