Verifying ISDN Lines

Use either of the following methods to verify operation of the ISDN lines.

T

Check the status of the DBM interface:

Main Menu

Status

DBM Interface Status

Line Status should display Active. If an invalid (Inv) status appears (e.g., Inv
SPID for an ISDN BRI DBM) in the Line Status field, verify that you entered
ISDN physical options correctly.

T

Check the status of the unit:

Main Menu

Status

System and Test Status

Health and Status column

System Operational

should appear.

If

ISDN Network Failed

appears, check that both ends of the ISDN cable

are seated properly for a good physical connection. If that does not clear the
message, verify that you entered ISDN physical option information correctly,
then contact the network service provider.

network cable so the system is forced into backup.

Verify the ISDN lines by checking the DBM Interface Status.

Main Menu

Status

Line Status should be Active. If an invalid (Inv) status (e.g., Inv SPID) is
displayed, verify that you entered ISDN physical options correctly.
