Configuring ISDN NFAS on CT1 PRI Groups

ISDN Non-Facility Associated Signaling (NFAS) allows a single D channel to control multiple PRI
interfaces. A backup D channel can also be configured for use when the primary NFAS D channel fails.
When configuring NFAS for channelized T1 controllers configured for ISDN, you use an extended
version of the ISDN pri-group command to specify the following:
•
•
•
Your Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400 must connect to a Primary-4ess, Primary-DMS 100, or Primary-NI

Configure

To configure ISDN NFAS, complete the following tasks in controller configuration mode:

nfas_interface number nfas_group number
AS5350(config-controller)# pri-group

Purpose
On one channelized T1 controller, configures the
NFAS primary D channel.
On a different channelized T1 controller,
configures the NFAS backup D channel to be used
if the primary D channel fails.
(Optional) On other channelized T1 controllers,
configures a 24 B channel interface, if desired.
