I'm troubleshooting a new PRI & G450. I'm finding that the first time I test the trunk & signaling all tests seem happy. After testing them a second time - I receive errors. Only a reboot clears the new errors.

(AT&T/National B8ZS, ESF, can connect with a rollover on the CSU/DSU & striaght without the CSU/DSU.)

Below I reboot the G450 and start a new test of the trunk.


Code:
test trunk 20                                                          Page   1

                press CANCEL to quit --  press NEXT PAGE to continue

All looks good - so I test the signaling-group.
Code:
test signaling-group 24

24          ISDN-SGR                     647       PASS

Now I test the trunk a second time.
Code:
test trunk 20                                                          Page   1

The Error Code Manual is pointing to the Signalling with my Telco. (We've gone over everything we can think of).
Code:
Signaling Link State Check Test
(#255)
The DS1 ISDN Trunk depends on the health of the appropriate MM710 Interface media module.
It also depends on the ISDN-PRI D-channel (ISDN-LNK) trunk. This test checks the status of
those critical elements.
4 FAIL There is a problem with the signaling channel.
Consult the procedures for the ISDN-PRI Signaling Group
(ISDN-SGRP). Further information may also be obtained by consulting
the procedures for the ISDN-PRI Signaling Channel (ISDN-LNK).
I keep on scratching my head trying to figure this one out. I've been working with my Telco but I'm not sure where to go from here.
 
SOLVED:
I asked my Telco to try another type of signaling. He went back to his Central Office and double checked his settings. (Without me changing anything.) He changed to 5ESS 'Custom' Signaling and suddenly everything lit up on his end.

He called the test # and it's been working great since!

Here is the working output:

Thanks for posting what it took to solve this problem. This may help someone down the line that runs into this same situation.
