Emulating the PSTN
|
|
| Robert Kulagowski 2006-10-25, 7:11 pm |
| For testing purposes in our lab, I'd like to get something that will
pretend to be the PSTN. It should generate at least 2 PRIs, 4 would be
better. BRI and POTS is a bonus. Getting PRIs from MaBell takes about
4 weeks, plus the MRC, so...
I'm pretty sure that Adtran will make something like this: what are
folks in the field using?

| T1 cross connect cables on two 6608 ports. Works great! Of course, that's just PRI no FXS/FXO or BRI testing.

| You can use a router as a ISDN network side connection and make T1 crossover
cables so you can network 2 or more routers. For my ccie lab I used a
router with two VWIC-MFT-T1 cards and a VWIC-MFT-E1 card. I then used
various other routers with VWICs for the ISDN user side. This has the added
benefit of making you configure the call routing on the network switch.
If you have access to non-production cisco gear this is a good way to go.

| Yep, this is what I use all the time. 550 supports FXS, FXO, PRI and BRI.
