ISDN Components: TE
 Terminal Equipment and Terminal Adaptor
– TE1
• Directly compatible with ISDN.
• Connect to the ISDN network through a four-wire,
twisted-pair digital link.
– TE2
• Non-compatible with
ISDN and requires an
adaptor to connect.
– TA
• Can be a standalone
device or a board
inside the TE2.

ISDN Components: NT
 Network Termination
– NT1
• Connects the four-wire subscriber wiring to the
conventional two-wire local loop.
• A CPE device in North America only.
– NT2
• Complicated device,
typically found in digital
Private Branch exchanges
(PBXs).

ISDN Reference Points
 Reference points are specifications that define
the connection between devices, depending on
their function.
 CPE device may support different reference
types.
 Reference points will determine what specific
equipment is required for purchase.

ISDN Reference Points: R & S
R
– Connection between non-ISDN device and a TA.
S
– Connection into the NT2 or customer switching
device.
– Enables calls
between various
parts of CPE.

 ISDN service providers use a wide variety of
switch types for their services.
– ISDN carrier provides a SPID to identify the line
configuration of the service.

ITU-T ISDN Standards
 Spans the first 3 OSI layers.
– Physical
• BRI Basic Rate Interface.
• PRI Primary Rate Interface.
– Data Link
• LAPD Link Access Procedure
on the D-channel.
– Network
• Specifies user-to-user, circuit-switched, and packetswitched connections.

ISDN Physical Layer
 ISDN physical-layer frame bits are:
– Framing bit - Provides synchronization.
– Load balancing bit - Adjusts average bit value.
– Echo of previous D channel bits - Used for
contention resolution.
– Activation bit - Activates devices.
– Spare bit-Unassigned.
– B1 channel bits.
– B2 channel bits.
– 8 Added channel bit counts bits.
– D channel bits - User data.

ISDN Data Link Layer
 LAPD is similar to HDLC.
– Used across D Channels to ensure control and
signaling information flow.
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI
Youngstown State University
Cisco Regional Academy Instructor
Cisco Networking Academy Program
ISDN Network Layer
 Two layer-3 specifications.
– ITU-T I.450 (also known as ITU-T Q.930).
– ITU-T I.451 (also known as ITU-T Q.931).
 They support multiple connections:
– User to user.
– Circuit switched.
– Packet switched.
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI

Cisco Networking Academy Program
ISDN Encapsulation
 Two most common encapsulations are:
– HDLC (default)
– PPP (best choice)
• Uses LCP
– Establish, configure, maintain, and terminate a point-to-point
connection.
• PAP & CHAP authentication.

Uses of ISDN: 1. Remote Access
 Remote Access (most common)
– Connecting users located at remote locations
through dialup connections.
– Lowest speed links in the enterprise.
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI
Youngstown State University
Cisco Regional Academy Instructor
Cisco Networking Academy Program
Uses of ISDN: 2. Remote Nodes
 Remote Node
– Users connect to the local LAN though the PSTN
for the duration of the call.
– Remote user appears as part of LAN.
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI
Youngstown State University

Uses of ISDN: 3. SOHO
 Small office/home office (SOHO) connectivity
– A few users require a faster more reliable connection
than an analog dialup connection.

ISDN Services: PRI
 Primary Rate Interface
– T1 at 1.544 Mbps
• 23 8-bit channels and 1 8-bit D channel plus 1 framing
bit in North America and Japan.
– E1 at 2.048 Mbps
• 30 8-bit B channels plus one
8-bit D channel plus one 8-bit
Framing channel in Europe,
Australia, and elsewhere.

ISDN Configuration
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI
Youngstown State University

Cisco Networking Academy Program
Global Configuration Tasks
 Select Switch Type
– Must match provider’s switch at CO.
• Signaling specs differ regionally and nationally.
– Set Destination details.
• Indicate static routes from router to other ISDN
destinations.
• Establish criteria for “interesting packets” in the router
that will trigger an ISDN call.
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI
Youngstown State University

Interface Parameters
 BRI interface
–
–
–
–
Port number.
IP and subnet mask.
DDR information and ID of service provider.
Define optional features.
• Time to wait for CO to respond to call.
• Idle time before time out and call drop.
– Switch type, and SPIDS.

IOS Commands for BRI
 Before using ISDN BRI, select the ISDN switchtype from the global mode:
isdn switch-type switch-type
 To configure the BRI interface from global
mode:
interface bri number
• The number is assigned at the factory, and can be
displayed by using the show interfaces command.
• As an example, to configure the AT&T 5ESS switch type:
isdn switch-type basic-5ess

Confirming BRI Status
 The show isdn status command shows:
– Layer 1 status
• active, inactive.
– Layer 2 status
• Terminal Endpoint Identifiers negotiated.
– Layer 3 status
• Readiness to make or receive calls.
 The show isdn active command:
– Lists the call in progress and its number.

Dial in Demand Routing
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI
Youngstown State University
Cisco Regional Academy Instructor
Cisco Networking Academy Program
DDR Considerations
 Dial on Demand Routing provides:
– Network routing and directory services.
– The illusion of full-time connectivity over circuitswitched connections.
 ISDN DDR is triggered
in a router by “interesting”
packets.
• For example, a router could
start ISDN web services if an
“interesting” packet has an Internet destination IP
address.
Robert E. Meyers CCNA, CCAI

Cisco Networking Academy Program
DDR Troubleshooting
 The debug isdn q921 command:
– Troubleshoots SPID problems.
– Verifies a connection to the ISDN switch.
 The clear interface command:
– Clears a call in progress and the historical
statistics.
 Packets with unexpected protocols can cause
a router to dial up ISDN even if there are no
users accessing the network.

Summary
 ISDN has integrated voice/data capability using
the public switched network.
 Components include terminals, TAs, NT
devices, and ISDN switches.
 Reference points define logical interfaces
between groups, such as TAs and NT1s.
 ITU-T standards cover the physical, data link,
and network layers of the OSI reference model.
 The two most common encapsulation choices
are PPP and HDLC (default.)

Summary
 Uses include remote access, remote node, and
SOHO connectivity.
 There are two ISDN services: BRI and PRI.
 ISDN BRI delivers a bandwidth of 144 kbps
within three separate channels.
 ISDN PRI bandwidth is 1.544Mbps for T1, and
2.08MBps for E1.
 BRI configuration involves the configuration of
an interface, ISDN switch type, and SPIDs.
 DDR establishes and releases circuit switched
connections as needed.
