Configuration parameter
If you have an AR140 with phone ports, your ISDN provider may have supplied you with
one or two ISDN numbers that external callers will use to ring the phone extensions. In
North America your ISDN service may support call waiting. If so, decide whether to enable
it on each phone port. Determine whether you want a call to one of the phones to ring
both phones, or only that phone.
Local ISDN number for Phone 1
Enable or disable call waiting on
Phone 1 (North America only)
Local ISDN number for Phone 2
Enable or disable call waiting on
Phone 2
Each number rings one or both
phones?
In North America, you also need ISDN setup information from your ISDN service provider.
This includes the ISDN switch type to which you are connected, SPIDs and associated
phone numbers to identify your ISDN service, and your ISDN connection speed.

You need the following information from your network administrator at the remote
office. The router uses the remote office ISDN number, username and password to
contact the remote office. The local username and password are used by the remote
office router to connect to your router. If your network administrator does not supply
these, create your own local username and password using only letters and digits.
Remember to give these to your network administrator at the remote office. In Australia
your ISDN service may offer a lower rate for a semi-permanent connection. If you
subscribe to OnRamp Express, configure your router to make calls semi-permanent. If the
office at the other end of your connection subscribes to OnRamp Express, do not make
your calls semi-permanent, as they will be charged at the higher rate.
