I am trying to configure a new T1 in a Cisco 1721(IOS 12.2) Modular Router. I have a Wic1 CSU/DSU card inserted and the line connected. I have setup the DLCI, the LMI type, and the encapsulation method. However it cannot connect. The only information I was given is the following.

Encap - FR-IETF
LMI - ANSI
DLCI - "XXX"
Wan Network ID - X.X.X.X
S Mask - Y.Y.Y.Y
ISP Router IP - Z.Z.Z.Z
My Router IP - A.B.C.D

Then I was given the Lan info which I want to work on after I get the T1 interface connected and pinging. One would think that with so few options it would work easily, but after setting the info all I get are dropped. Below is the sh int from the interface minus the top 2 lines(IP info) Any help would be greatly appreciated. The DLCI seems to always be set to 0 and router discovery is off(cant remember how to activate it)


MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1536 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec,
reliability 253/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255

One more piece of info,here is the current running config for the serial port if it helps any. I think the issue is with the ISP router and Network ID though since I have not input that info into anything yet.

interface Serial0
ip address A.B.C.D Y.Y.Y.Y
encapsulation frame-relay IETF
shutdown
service-module t1 clock source internal
frame-relay interface-dlci XXX
frame-relay lmi-type ansi
 
Not insult your intelligence but I see a shutdown on the serial interface.

Remove:
service-module t1 clock source internal

The ISP usually provices clocking.

Unless you have the full T1 circuit, you will need:
service-module t1 timeslots 1-?

For example, if you have a 256k circuit, then:
service-module t1 timeslots 1-4 (ISP should provide info)

I had it shutdown on purpose, I activated it when I was actually running it.I have a thing for not leaving interfaces running even if they dont work.I forgot to pull the line when posting so for that I am sorry. Thanks for all the assistance, after a few hours on the phone I was able to get it out of the ISP that they made a mistake and forgot to actually turn on the T1. As for the channels it is a full T1 so my guess then is 1-24 for that setting. It wasnt provided by the ISP. I will post the "sh frame-relay pvc" tomorrow.

Thanks again for all the help so far.
 
Thanks again everyone, got this up and running. As a side question I am having problems forwarding specific ports on these.(Incase anyone is wondering, I normally deal only with servers, firewalls, and software(programming and web design) so my knowledge of cisco equip is rather limited. I was thrown onto an assignment however in which I have to setup a cisco router with a T1.) I am trying to forward port 5100 which is used for remote access to an application by some poeple at the site. However the router is blocking this port for some reason. Any ideas as to why?
