Hi, I m a nortel Tech and need some help from CISCO gurus in following.
We have a CS1000 Release 5 (nortel PBX)which needs to be TIE to CISCO CME through E1, QSIG. The CISCO gut need clear requirement need to be setup at CISCO CME voice router. They say that they have E1 and QSIG availability at CISCO CME but need requirement/configuration to be setup at CISCO CME voice router to be needed to connect it with Nortel PBX.
I am not sure what setting/config should be done at CISCO CME voice router to get it talk with Nortel PBX using E1.
Can you guys post a sample configuration to configure CISCO CME voice router or point a document where i could find setting of CISCO CME Voice router with Nortel PBX.
I will be very thankful if somebody help.
Regards

Cisco's got an example on their web site for this.

I'm primarly a Nortel guy, but so far, I've been pretty impressed about their openness to interoperability. The've got alot of examples for different configurations.

Hi Pal, does these settings as described in PDF file also applies to new CISCO CME voice router settings for E1 interface with Nortel? I m sorry if i m asking a dumb question.
Further is name display and ring again across extension support with this configuration? Should i setup CDP dial plan at nortel to support name display features ...
Regards

You can change the messaging format on the cisco side, you need to check this is the same as the Nortel otherwise CPND doesnt work correctly

Remember if it doesn't work hit it harder
