madge model 20 docs and config

[bubba23]

i recently purchased a madge model 20 isdn simulator. i am trying to find documentation on this device. as well as any help configuring it to do ddr for 2 cisco 2611 routers with isdn wic's. i'm trying to figure out how to connect to the devices's ports and the cabling i would need.....

thanks

First of all. Are you sure that the madge has BRI ports? What does it say on the green LCD after it boots up and comes to rest? Secondly...do you have the software for it and the console cable etc set up already?

i have gotten a manual from initia. but now i understand it is 100 for the console software and cable. then on top of that it takes 2 special v.35 to rj45 cables to use the isdn side ( ports a1 and a2) the device has an 8 port only card and according to the manual, the monitor ports, and the pri port are the only usable ports on the card. initia wants 100 each for the v.35 to rj45 cables. at this point i wish i would have bought a vconsole. the cost for the vconsole would be the same as what i have to invest in this madge box to make it work.

thanks for the posting

On top of all that some of the 8 port expansion cards on the madge are actually T1/PRI cards and sometimes net only quad-BRI cards(with 4 jacks spare). I assume you would need host BRI ports to attach routers to. Madges can be a pain in some cases.

I am in the same situation. Have Teleos model 20 but don't have doc/sofware to config.
Please let me know how to get sw cheap.
It is seating around in my lab collecting dust.
Thanks
