Overlay 60 and 96

[nickwj]

Hi, I was wondering if any one could give a description of overlay 60 and 96 and when to use them or point to an idiots guide.

Im from the Uk and we use a range of ISDN30 , MCDN, DPNSS, Qsig circuits.

I know you can do a stat, enable, disable of a isdn circuit in overlay 60, but what is 96 used for?

Any help would be appriciated as usual.

Regards Nick.

96 is used to stat d channels, enable and disable MSDL and TMDi cards, enable and disable d channel messages

Hi Buddy thanks for that. I need a little more information please. I have a loop where all the channels are disabled. I can see this in overlay 60 and an out of service alarm. I went to overlay 96 and did a stat on the D channel (stat dch Loop) but the switch gave back little information on the D channels status. What command do I use ot get more D channel information. Do I need to try and enable the D channel fisrt in overlay 96 and then the loop in overlay 60. Plus is there a way of finding out if it as local or far end alram.

Any help, is appreciated

Regards
Nick.

stat dch x in ld 96 will tell you if your dch is establishe,disabled or in alarm. Look in ld 60 under alarm status to see if it is no alarm, yellow Alarm or red alarm

Thanks,

Buddy

Red alarm is typically remote and yellow local.
LD 96 DIS DCH x (x being DChannel you are working with)
LD 60 DISL x (x being loop)
LD 60 ENLL x (loop should enable and DCH establish if no issue)

LD 60 LCNT x (to check counters on specific loop)
once enabled and dch established
LD 60 RCNT (to reset counters on all loops)
