  • Page 9: Connecting The Isdn Gateway

    If your network provider has not terminated all of your incoming ISDN PRI lines with an NTU/CSU, Cisco recommends that you install a suitably approved CSU to protect the ISDN gateway from damage by surges on your ISDN PRI lines.
  • Page 10: Initial Configuration

    Initial configuration Initial configuration Step one: Configure Ethernet Port A settings The default setting for the ISDN gateway Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the switch ports to which you connect the ISDN gateway are not also set to auto-sensing mode, then you need to configure the ISDN gateway Ethernet ports to use the same speed and duplex mode.

  • Page 14 Configuring the ISDN gateway There are a number of different ways in which you can use the dial plan. For example, you can use the dial plan to link specific bandwidths to certain prefixes, thereby enabling users to use the correct bandwidth for an IP to ISDN call. You can also use the dial plan to enable the ISDN gateway to join incoming ISDN calls to the correct conference on an MCU.
