Cisco 2821 PTP - Error Sec / Slip Secs --

joe.daguiar
Level 1
Level 1

I have two dedicated T1's for Voice in a multilink to our main office where the IP Phone switch is located. 

I am getting sporadic complaints of muffled voices and I am seeing Error Secs and Slip Secs. I have opened a ticket with our provider and after 72hour monitor, they show the line as clean.  I believe it is a timing issue but I am looking for any guidance.  BTW - the circuits pulling timing from the line. 

See details below:

That many CRC errors in a week is too high. Have you just started seeing this problem or has anything changed recently?

HTH, John *** Please rate all useful posts ***

Here's a similar situation that I dealt with a couple of years ago and how I fixed it:

Please rate if useful....

HTH, John *** Please rate all useful posts ***

No recent changes.  There have been a number of tickets regarding phone call quality -- I am chasing the issue now.  Thanks for the link -- I will test and let you know.

This put me on the right path - been dealing with this on a 2921 rtr for months.  Thank you thank you thank you j.blakley!!
