3825 + NM-1T3/E3 and Sprint T3 line

[hantonov42]

I have replaced ADC Kentrex box with NM-1T3/E3 (the box has failed). After configuring the serial interface, I see the line up and the protocol up but I can't ping Sprint's router as well as they can't ping my router. Sprint is not very helpful because this is not their managed equipment. Any suggestions?

My first thought would be to verify that the address that you have configued is completely correct.

The fact that the line is up and the line protocol is up is a good sign and indicates that the line parameters match up with Sprint ok. Do you have CDP enabled? If so do you get any information from show cdp neighbor detail (which if it gives you response data will verify the IP address of the peer).

I am not familiar with the dsu mode command and the significance of setting it to 1. Have tested the effect of removing it or of configuring it to some other value?

Begin sending "show controllers T3". Ask SP if they are using Kentrox or ADC mode on their side.

Note you cannot run T3 speeds as "no ip route-cache cef".

The output for show controllers is

T3 2/0 is up.

Sprint told me to set dsu mode to Kentrox.

Good, and show int ser 2/0 please?

Packets go through, I would reconfig interface to absolute minimum and check again.

BTW any chance SP want PPP encap ?
