3RD T-1 ON MICS 6.1 XC

[TN2TONE]

ARE THERE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE 3RD T-1 ON A MICS, I HEARD THAT 3RD ONE CAN ONLY BE A PRI T-1. I HAVE A APPLICATION THATS REQ 3 T'S. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPREICIATED.

I am having a problem with my 3rd t1 right now. It is not configured as a PRI and is in Trunk Module slot 8. I can only get lines 61-64,69-72, and 77-80 to work. It does not even show the other 12 line numbers under the provisioning heading in Maintenance. The hardware settings are all correct because I can use half the lines for in and out. I had one other project with a third t1 configured as a site to site fractional pri with sl-1 protocol and did not have these same problems. Did you ever find any more info? Also, can anyone else offer their ideas? I might tell the carrier to change the T1 to a PRI, but I can't say for sure if that will work.

I just got off the phone with Nortel and they said this is a known issue. The off core DTI will work fine configured as a PRI but not as a channelized T1 with E&M trunks. They are sending me a "private load" of XC 6.1 software with the fix on it. Also, they said the Maintenance Release of this software will be GA in January to include the fixes for an off core DTI used this way.
Hope this helps.

Do you happen to know whether or not this is a problem with just XC software? Or all 6.1 software?

I assume all software, but I did not ask Nortel that specifically.
