Adding PRI to an old G3siV6

Can anyone confirm if a G3siV6i.02.1.125.1 will support a PRI? I found documentation indicating it IS possible when using a TN778 but the PBX itself will not let me install it, I've verified that the licensing has ISDN-PRI set to yes. I've never installed a PRI on anything this old before, if anyone has please let me know.
 
sounds like you need to bring in qualified help, a tn778 is a packet control card you need a ds1 board
 
to be fair, i was reading up old docs cause i never heard of that. But supposedly, you needed some packet interface card once upon a time to get a d channel to the processor, or at least that's how I understood it.
I can't imagine that being necessary at V6, but I only poked around once or twice. Maybe he can't add a packet interface because his release already has one?
 
Packet Bus on g3v6 or earlier is added with tn778 then customer-option ISDN-PRI over PACCON? y
Packet Bus without tn778 is generic when you upgrade to g3v7 and higher. Before upgrading to this, you
would need to remove all the processor interface ISDN programming.

Without this hardware and customer-option you need to use communication-interface links and communication-interface processor-channels for ISDN-PRI? y

joe2938 - my apologies as I see I wasn't clear. I do have a TN464 installed but according to documentation I also need the TN778 packet interface to support the D-channel signaling if I'm understanding it correctly. I did try setting up the trunk group but when I attempted to program the signaling group is when the PBX told me I needed that packet interface. When I tried to add the TN778 circuit pack however the PBX didn't allow it. Does that make sense?
 
Avaya documentation does not say you must have a tn778 for isdn...

If you want to add tn778, power down the Definity, plug in the tn778 in the packet bus slot,
then power the Definity up.

list configuration control will show the tn778 installed.

You can read my previous thread and make your isdn work without adding a tn778. Click on the link.
