Freeing up a 2811's PVDM for a CFB

[Robert Milanovich]

I have a 2811 (with a PVDM2-16, VIC2-4FXO, and an NM-HDA (4FXS, 4FXO, and 4FXO)) and want to use the PVDM for a Conf Bridge.

I'm not using the VIC2 for anything but it keeps grabbing the PVDM2's DSP and I am unable to free it up for a conference Bridge. I tried to shut down all the ports on the VIC2, but the DSPS still get assigned. Short of pulling the VIC2 out of the router, is there any way to disable the VIC2 so it doesn't take the dsps?

Hi,

The DSP allocation is done to analog (FXO/FXS) and bri ports at system initialisation.

The only thing we can manipulate is the DSP resources allocated to digital voice ports (PRI/CAS) by means of reconfiguring the PRI and DS0 groups.

DSPs allocated to analog card cannot be released without removing the card.
