P2p T1

[kendon3733]

I need a hand on getting a P2P T1 up and running. I have an up/down link. I am using static routes and have tried using bgp but nothing is bringing the link up.

Serial0/1/0 is up, line protocol is down

Hardware is GT96K with integrated T1 CSU/DSU

reliability 206/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255

Encapsulation HDLC, loopback not set

Keepalive set (10 sec)

Last input never, output 00:00:00, output hang never

Last clearing of "show interface" counters never

Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0

Hi, your circuit is faulty or something grossly mis configured somewhere. Check that you have as many input errors as packets.

Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!

If your serial interface is line up line protocol down then it does not have anything to do with what routing you are doing. Static routes or BGP or any other routing protocol has nothing to do with this.

In addition to the suggestion from Paolo I would suggest a couple of things. I frequently see this symptom when the line encapsulation is mismatched between the two ends. I see that your end is configured for HDLC. Please check the router on the other end and see if it is configured for HDLC or for something else. There might also be an issue with clocking on the line. How to check this depends on the model of router - it might be show controller T1 or it might be show service module.

I see you are getting excessive line code violations with other errors. I would first check the configuration of the remote end to verify that you are both setup identical (24DS0's, ESF/B8ZS). Perform local loops from your Demarcation point in your Telco room to each end device. Verify that your loops are good. If OK, then I would turn the line out to the Phone Company to check.

Hi,

1.With the help of your first post I found that the Telco line having itself problem. Reliability is poor, as well as having Input Packet & CRC Error.

2.From your next post I found that they're also some error, i.e. AIS Loss, RA, Fr Loss Secs

3.Don't forget to check the both end encapsulation.

Suggesting go with the opinion with "pciaccio" also verify the Framing & Line Code at the both-end with your the help of your Telco.

Please rate if its work!!!

Guys,

Thanks for the input, I just found out that the service provider programmed the line wrong. They have it as a SF/AMI when it should be a ESF/B8ZS. Hopefully when they make the change the circuit will come right up.

Thanks,

Ken

Thanks for posting the update. Having the line provisioned incorrectly would explain the problem. I am optimistic that when they get the correct parameters set that the line will come up just fine.
