The Model RT328 router has been approved by Bellcore and has the IOC (ISDN Ordering Code)
"S" Capability, EZ-ISDN 1. You should provide this information to your telephone company when
you order your ISDN line.
In North America, you must configure your ISDN equipment according to the type of switch your
telephone company has in its local central office. For further information, refer to the Reference
Guide for the Model RT328 ISDN Router.
You must ask for the following information from your telephone company:
• The type of switch at your telephone company -- this may be AT&T 5ESS, Northern Telecom
DMS-100/DMS-250, or Siemens EWSD.
• Configuration mode of your ISDN line -- whether your line is configured in the standard
National ISDN mode or in a manufacturer-specific "custom" mode.
• The local directory number(s) assigned to your line.
• The Service Profile Identifiers (SPIDs) associated with the directory numbers.
