Setting up a T1

[lobo66]

Does anyone have a sample config for a point-to-point T1 between lets say two 2620's both have an interanl WIC card.

New to routers my Network engineer quit and I am trying to finish up some stuff that was left off.

Thank...

I will assuming you have an unframed X21 circuit, if you are using a WIC card. Therefore:

** Router A

interface Serial0/0
description WAN Connection to router B
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252


** Router B
interface Serial0/0
description WAN Connection to router A
ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.252

These routers would be communicating using a WAN protocol called HDLC. It is the default option. Default configuration commands tend to be hidden (though it is possible to unhide the commands). The above would enable each end to communicate between each other. However, any other connected networks, i.e. your LAN, would not be reachable by the opposite (neighbour) router.

Let me know how you get on.

Would the global "Controller" command/config come into play?

Is it a WIC card or a VWIC card. If you have the former it won't have a controller option. If the latter, then yes, you would need to set your controller. How you do the latter depends on what you want:

controller T1 x/y/z
channel-group 0 timeslots 1-23
! WILL GIVE YOU FULL BANDWIDTH MINUS 64k
framing [no-crc4, crc4]
! DEPENDS ON WHAT YOUR NETWORK PROVIDER SUPPLIES

OR

controller T1 x/y/z
channel-group 0 unframed
! WILL GIVE YOU FULL T1 SPEED
clock-source internal
! SET THIS ON ONE END ONLY TO ALLOW EACH SIDE OF THE CCT TO STAY IN SYNC.
