AS53000 modem-pool question

[michael.whittle]

I have two E1's configured on a AS5300:

controller E1 0

clock source line primary

pri-group timeslots 1-31

!

controller E1 1

clock source line secondary 1

pri-group timeslots 1-31

!

I also have a modem-pool configured:

modem-pool dialout

pool-range 1-60

called-number rsvp-sync max-conn 60

!

How do you get a modem-pool to span over both E1's? It always seems to initiate the call from the first E1.

How is the modem pool actually bound to the configuration? Will the NAS just use the first modem-pool configured or is it specified in the config somewhere?

Regards,

Mike

Modem pooling is designed for inbound calls over PSTN to a Access server. Also there is no way that AS5300 can control the INCOMING calls and b-channels allocated to the calls as its controlled by telco switch.

For dialout, free b-channels will be allocated in top-down and round robin order by 5300. The best you can get to ise you can use "modem dialout controller 0-1" under the line x y configuration. In that 0-1 is the range of E1 controllers number to be used for dialout.

That's perfect, thanks.
