Modem-pool
Hi all,

I use an AS5300 with IOS 120-4.XJ4,

I have the following problem:

When I try to connect to the NAS I have the following error in my debug log:

00:04:03: to NEAT:(cid001A) EVENT_CALL_IDLE for slot0 ctlr4 chan5
00:04:03: cas_is_fax_service: cas_group=0, service=0
00:04:03: VDEV_ALLOCATE: failed to allocate a device from pool
System-def-Mpool
00:04:03: VDEV_ALLOCATE: failed to allocate a device from pool POOl-TEST
00:04:03: ERROR: CSM_RX_CAS_EVENT_FROM_NEAT:(cid001B): EVENT_CALL_DIAL_IN:
no modem is available.


Here is part of trhe config:

modem-pool POOL-TEST
pool-range 1-5

controller E1 4
framing NO-CRC4
clock source line secondary 4
cas-group 0 timeslots 1-15,17-31 type r2-digital r2-compelled ani
cas-custom 0
caller-digits 2



Does anyone know what's wrong?

Kind regards.

From memory, I have had a problem when I used the hyphen "-" in the modem
pool name...

Perhaps try renaming the modem pool to : 'POOL_TEST'...

Mike Taylor

Re: Modem-pool [ In reply to ]
I remember now, the problem I had was with IP address pools and the
'hyphen', so this is probably not relevant... sorry...

Moving on, the reasons I could see for modems not being allocated are:

1: modems are busy/locked up ('show modem' to make sure there are some
modems available.
2: If the config is looking for a specific incoming number, it is possible
that what is in the config doesn't match what the exchange is sending you
(e.g. if the number you are expecting is: 1 555 1234 567 and the switch
strips the leading digit, you'll end up receiving 555 1234 567).

Cheers,
Mike
