Once the ISDN switch type and directory numbers have been configured, the router must
be reset for the new values to take effect and for the ISDN BRI interface to register with the
central switch.

Once the router has restarted it is ready to establish ISDN connections.
With the ISDN numbers and switch type defined, an ISDN call may be placed to another
properly configured bridge/router. The calls may be placed manually or automatically. The
automatic call features available are Auto-Call or IP Address Connect. An Auto-Call
connection is established each time the router starts up. An IP Address Connect call is
established to a specifically configured remote router when certain IP traffic is received
from the local LAN.
Note that any time the switch type is changed a soft reset must be performed before the
change will take effect.
The switch type is not saved through a full reset; the router will come up with the default
switch type – NET3; if you require a different switch type, it must be re-entered after a
configuration reload. It is strongly recommended that the entire configuration set of the
router be saved (Dump config.txt to the console) then reloaded (Restore config.txt from the
console) after a full reset.
The configuration options described here are only for initial set-up and configuration
purposes. For more complete information on all of the configuration parameters
available, please refer to the “Menus Reference Manual” on the accompanying CD-
ROM.
