SPID Details
Some service providers use service profile ID numbers (SPIDs) to define the
services subscribed to by the ISDN device that is accessing the ISDN service
provider. The service provider assigns the ISDN device one or more SPIDs when
you first subscribe to the service. If you are using a service provider that requires
SPIDs, your ISDN device cannot place or receive calls until it sends a valid,
assigned SPID to the service provider when accessing the switch to initialize the
connection.
Only the DMS-100 and NI switch types require SPIDs. The AT&T 5ESS switch
type may support a SPID, and we recommend that you set up that ISDN service
without SPIDs. In addition, SPIDs have significance at the local-access ISDN
interface only. Remote routers never receive the SPID.
A SPID is usually a seven-digit telephone number with some optional numbers.
However, service providers may use different numbering schemes. For the
DMS-100 switch type, two SPIDs are assigned, one for each B channel.
SPID1
Enter the SPID to the first BRI B channel provided to you by your ISP.
SPID2
Enter the SPID to the second BRI B channel provided to you by your ISP.
