Other configuration requirements vary by provider. Step 1: Specify the ISDN switch type. Router(config-if)# isdn switch-type switch-type Configuring ISDN BRI

© 2006 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. ICND v Summary ISDN defines a digital architecture that provides integrated voice and data capability through the public switched network. ISDN specifies three standard protocols: E-series, I-series, and Q-series. ISDN specifies two standard access methods, BRI and PRI. To establish an ISDN call, the D channel is used between the routers and the switches. SS7 signaling is used between the switches. ISDN functions are hardware devices, whereas reference points are interfaces between devices. Cisco devices can be physically configured with different ISDN options, which dictate what additional equipment, if any, is needed to run ISDN.

You must configure your router to identify the type of switch it will be communicating with, and the type of switch depends in part on the country in which the switch is located. The isdn switch-type and isdn spid commands can be used to enable ISDN BRI. The pri-group command can be used to enable ISDN PRI. The show commands can be used to verify that your ISDN configuration is functioning properly. The debug commands can be used to troubleshoot your ISDN configuration.
