NTU/CSU, we recommend that you install a suitably approved CSU to protect the ISDN GW 3241 from damage by surges on your ISDN PRI lines. If you do not install a CSU between the incoming ISDN PRI lines and the ISDN GW 3241, then the ISDN GW 3241 must be installed in a restricted location as defined by EN, IEC and UL60950.
Do not connect anything to Ethernet Port B. Step three: Connect to the ISDN ports The ISDN GW 3241 uses a standard RJ48C ISDN interface for each PRI port. Use a single straight-through STP patch cable to connect each PRI port on the ISDN GW 3241 to your ISDN connection.
The default setting for the ISDN GW 3241 Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the switch ports to which you connect the ISDN GW 3241 are not also set to auto- sensing mode, then you need to configure the ISDN GW 3241 Ethernet ports to use the same speed and duplex mode.
Step three: Assign an IP address to the ISDN GW 3241 (optional) The default setting for the ISDN GW 3241 is to use DHCP to obtain an IP address. You can assign a static IP address if you prefer or if a DHCP server is not available. If you want the IP address to be assigned by your DHCP server, omit this step.
To display the current status of the IP address, enter: status If DHCP is enabled on your network and you permit the ISDN GW 3241 to acquire its address using DHCP, the IP address acquired by Ethernet Port A is shown.
Step five: Configure the dial plan By default the ISDN GW 3241 rejects all calls. To enable calling with the ISDN GW 3241 you must configure a dial plan with at least one dial plan rule for each direction...

Configuring the ISDN GW 3241 Although the ISDN GW 3241 supports advanced dial plan capabilities, we recommend that you define just a simple dial plan to get started. The online help topic “Getting started with the gateway” explains how to create a suitable basic dial plan.
Refer to this section if you are experiencing difficulties with the ISDN GW 3241. Calls fail to complete If outgoing calls fail to complete, check that you have configured the ISDN GW 3241 and all other equipment correctly, paying particular attention to the number you are trying to call.
Pin outs Pin outs The pin numbering for the PRI ports on the ISDN GW 3241 is shown in Figure 2. The pin assignments for the PRI ports are shown in Table 2: Table 2: Pin assignments for PRI ports...
