Configuring WAN Access
Configuring IDSL connections
The unit receives outgoing call requests from the device connected to the IDSL card and routes
voice calls to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) over a T1 line or ISDN PRI
line. The unit receives incoming voice calls on any attached T1 or PRI line, and uses Dialed
Number Identification Service (DNIS) to route the calls to devices connected to IDSL cards.
To configure IDSL voice-call support, open the System > Sys Config profile and set the
following parameters in each Line N subprofile:
Parameter
Enabled
Dial Plan
For detailed information about each parameter, see the MAX Reference.

If the profile you have configured is not the active profile, activate it as described in
"Activating a profile" on page 2-7.
For details of configuring your T1/PRI line, see "Configuring T1 lines" on page 3-7.
Configuring the MAX to route incoming voice calls to the IDSL card
You can use one of two different methods or a combination of both to configure the MAX unit
to accept voice calls from the PSTN and route them to devices connected to an IDSL card. You
can instruct the unit to route calls to an IDSL card on the basis of either the called number or
the T1 channel on which the unit receives calls.

Availability of the line. If you set the Enabled parameter to No, the line is
not available for use.
Whether or not a card uses trunk groups or the extended dial plan to send
and receive calls. The options are to use the extended dial plan or use
trunk groups. (For details about dial plans, see "Configuring outbound
calls" on page 3-69.)
Open the System > Sys Config profile.
Set Use Trunk Groups to Yes.
Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
Open the Net/T1 > Line Config > Line Config > Line N subprofile for the channel of the
T1/PRI line you want to make available to the IDSL card, and set the Ch N TrnkGrp
parameter to a value from
You must prepend this value to the telephone number the TE device dials. When the MAX
unit receives a voice-call request from the IDSL device, the unit uses the trunk-group
number to route the call to a T1 channel with a matching trunk-group number. If trunk
groups are not used, the call request terminates at the unit and is not forwarded to the
PSTN.
Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
