Back to Back ISDN PRI connection.
Hi,

is there a possibility to connect two Cisco E1 interfaces back-to-back supporting ISDN PRI
capabilities ?

One side is AS5300 with 4 Channelized E1/PRI ports, other is 3640 with High Density Voice Port
adapter, E1 (1 Port) Multi-Flex Trunk WAN Daughter Card.

Purpose is to simulate analog modem calls coming into 3640 via FXS, coming over E1 to AS5300
terminated on MICA modem.

Thank you for answer.

A couple other tips:

- For E1, use primary-net5 switchtype (if T1, use primary-NI)

- To avoid clock slips, set one side to freerun and the other side to
be loop timed. See http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/116/sgl_clocking.html .

The command <isdn protocol-emulate network> allows for back-to-back
connections by emulating the network side.

If there is someone interested, I can send the configs of the working setup.

PC - analog modem - 2wire - FXS - 3600 - E1 - E1 cross cable - E1 - AS5300 - MICA modem

PC is able to dial over FXS into AS5300 via E1 timeslot (3600 act as a PBX).

Thanks to Aaron Leonard and Mark Johnson.
