Hi all

does anyone know if it is possible to get a Nortel 2340 Passport Router to talk to a 520 Cabletron Router ?

Please Please I need help !
 
OSPF ???

At the moment I have the an IP bound to each Serial port (The nortel and cabletron) I have PPP encapsulation, It brings up the interface but I cannot ping other serial from the one router or from the other one.
The are in the same subnet, Heck ! I even assigned a whole class C for the two serial ports.) I come from a Cisco background, and from what I see these two are not talking at all.

I have done everything according to the book with no outcome
 
Is this a new circuit? Could be the telco...What do your CSU's/DSU's indicate? Do you have to set the speed on the Cabletron as you do on an Enterasys?

i.e. for a HSSI card in slot 14/port 1 running at 34Mb:

port set hs.14.1 wan-encapsulation ppp speed 34000000
