Re: ISDN: One or Two Dial Strings

Leo,

To use one dialer string to bring up both channels, the telco must setup a
rollover from the first b channel to the second b channel. The telco switch
will receive a second call setup to the same number and need to rollover to
that second channel. I think that it is totally dependant on the telco side
to get this to work correctly. Bridging would be an example of this. If they
can't do it, and I have seen this in more rural areas using legacy
equipment, then you will probably have to use two dialer strings.

HTH,
Mike
