800 NI-BRI Module Problems
NI-1 BRI Provisioning Test
This test verifies that each communication path on the 800 NI-BRI module is
operational by establishing and disconnecting a series of voice and data calls
between any two communication paths on the module.
In Release 4.1 and later systems, the NI-BRI Provisioning Test is enhanced to
include testing for BRI facilities that are part of Multiline Hunt Groups (MLHGs).
Prior to testing, the BRI facility must have a MLHG group number programmed.
The number (up to 10 digits) is appended to the end of the Directory Number
(DN) (separated by a # character) programmed for the BRI line.
Before proceeding with this test, obtain completed copies of System Planning
Form 3-i, Incoming Trunks: BRI Options and the NI-1 BRI Planner Form.
NOTE:
If an 800 NI-BRI module has only one DN/SPID provisioned on it, the
provisioning test cannot be run on that module. To test the line, move one
DSL from another 800 NI-BRI module to this module. The DSL that is
moved should have been tested successfully and, to make testing easier,
should not be part of a MLHG. This move involves administering a line on
the DSL and connecting the cable on the target module. Run the test on
the two DNs. When the test is successfully completed, remove the
programming from the board just tested so that the single line is left on
the board. Then reconnect the cable to the original slot and port.
Beginning with Release 4.1, all 800 NI-BRI modules must be busied out and
those BRI boards not being tested must be unplugged from the carrier before
testing can begin.
