Please help. I keep having issues with my multilink config. The serial interfaces start showing errors and the VoIP sessions are all static. Basically, it is bonding 2 T1's between a central site and remote site.
Central site details:
2811 Router
card type t1 0 3
no network-clock-participate wic 3
!
controller T1 0/3/0
framing esf
linecode b8zs

Originally had problems with the fair-queue command - and the above details are what finally made everything work. Not sure what is going on now.
Thanks.

Hi Tim,
You have a lot of input error and CRC on your serial interface which make me think of line quality issue. You should check with your links service provider.

Laurent - thanks for the reply. The service provider was my first thought also, however, this is the third time in two weeks that this has happened. I believe it is a problem with the clocking. Rebooting the routers on both ends of the T1's seems to put things back in sync.
