1721 p-t-p T1 connection

watsoncm · ‎02-17-2006

I have a pair of 1721's over a p-t-p T1 with internal DSU/CSU 1T V2 cards. Telco ran end to end test with no errors. Both ends are set to ESF and B8ZS. One end has clocking set to internal and other end set to line. Telco is not providing clocking. Encapsulation is set to HDSL. Line keeps boucing up and down every minute. Telco installed Netopia routers and all works fine. I have replaced all cabling and the WIC card in both routers. What am I missing?

Do you know why the line is going up or down ? Is it due to errors on the line ? Can you post the output of 'show service-module serial xxx' ?

Thanks,

Paresh

I do not have a output of service-mod s0 at this time. Here is what "show int s0" shows...

Thanks...you are obviously getting heaps of input errors. When you do get the output of 'show service-module', pls do post it as it should provide more information...

I have the circuit cable unplugged about 24 hours now. I am not onsite to plug it back in. Here is the current host end output of "service-module".

Thanks for you help! Would it make a difference to set fdl to ansi or att?

One thing you could possibly try is to make a loopback plug so that you can loop the line at one end. Then, you can see if you are still getting errors.

Here's what I mean:

RtA ------- RtB

Connect a hardware loop plug to the line at RtB which loops the received signal to the transmit signal. Therefore, you will get an end-to-end test from RtrA and through the line. Then, repeat the process by connecting the loopback plug at the RtA end of the line...

One more thing: have you tried using linecode ami ? The telco records may indicate that you are configured for bz8s but that may not necesarily be true... It's worth a shot, in any case...
