Channelized T1 ISDN PRI offers 23 B channels and 1 D channel. Channelized E1 ISDN PRI offers
30 B channels and 1 D channel. Channel 24 is the D channel for T1, and channel 16 is the D channel for
E1. ISDN provides out-of-band signaling using the D channel for signaling and the B channels for user
data.
Note • For more information on dial services, see the Dial Solutions Command Reference for your

• Before configuring ISDN PRI on your Cisco universal gateway, order a correctly provisioned ISDN
PRI line from your telecommunications service provider.

Step 1 Use the enable command and password to enter privileged EXEC mode. You are in privileged EXEC
mode when the prompt changes to Gateway#.

Note Under the individual serial-D channels, a different switch type can be defined for each PRI trunk.
See “Task 6. Configuring the Serial Interfaces” section on page 36.
