Our remote access PoP consists of the following devices:
2 AS5400s, each having 24 E1 PRI ports and 60
integrated NextPort modems.
The option of having significantly less modems than
the available ISDN B channels offered by the ISDN
PRI ports have been chosen in order not to invest on
modem technology since analog calls that the network
must serve are no more than 5% of total calls.
In order to utilize both AS5400s we plan to configure MMP.
The limitation of available modems in combination
with the use of MMP raises the problem of how an
analog call will be served when that call terminates
on an AS5400 that has used all of its modems.
Are there any recommendations on such a scenario?
