Preparing for a T1

phoeneousphoeneous Member Posts: 2,333 ■■■■■■■□□□
In a few weeks I'll be connecting a 1921 to a Qwest T1. This is my first wan deployment so I want to get prepared as much as I can. They have not provided me with public ip's yet, should have them in a few days. Can someone look at the config below and tell me if I am missing anything for the serial interface? Card is hwic-1dsu-t1.
Interface serial 0/0
service-module t1 clock source line
service-module t1 timeslots 1-24 speed 64
service-module t1 framing esf
service-module t1 linecode b8zs
ip address x.x.x.x 255.255.255.0
encapsulation ppp
no shut

    I've only setup an E1 (T1 equivalent in the UK) to get our VoIP to talk to the PSTN...

    interface Serial0/0:15
    no ip address
    no logging event link-status
    isdn switch-type primary-net5
    isdn incoming-voice voice
    no cdp enable

    and

    voice-port 0/0:15
    translate calling 1
    translate called 2
    echo-cancel erl worst-case 0

    So, probably no help to you at all, sorry :D

    That should be OK (assuming that it's not an MPLS/frame-relay circuit) but the best bet would be to call the carrier and ask them to provide you with a "configlet" - They typically have a template of exactly what they are looking for and it's as easy as just filling in the blanks. I've setup data Ts from a bunch of different carriers (internet and MPLS) and there are usually minor tweaks.

    Is that the literal term or street talk? :)

    It’s actually what MCI used to refer to them as. But I bet that “template” would work just as well :)

    add

    no peer neighbor-route

    this will prevent the addition of a PPP host route being created

    Looks good. Qwest uses ppp from everything i have seen so you should be good there. Actually the only provi der i have ran in to that uses hdlc is Spri nt, unless it is bonded of course.
