RE: HELP with WIC-T1-DSU card Point to Point

Yes! Demarcation was extended at the Central site, less than 150ft
The service provider SBC is not providing the clock rate so I configured
the central site WIC with clock source internal and the remote site
clock source line.

I have the same setup with another remote site and that one does not
report any problems.

Which leads me to believe is a SBC deal, SBC claim is not.

Their non-intrusive test came back Ok (Good Numbers) according to SBC.

The T1 stayed up for more than 3 hrs then it went down again, that was
yesterday.
Today T1 went down in the morning and again around 12:00 CST
Last time I did a clear interface s0/0 and came back up.

The below configuration shows the T1 in the Up Up state. (While writing
this email)

When the central site T1 goes down, the line and protocol are in the
Down, Down State.

The remote site is all the time in the UP UP state.

Is the flapping periodic at a certain interval? I have seen mismatched keepalive timers cause a t1 line to flap. What do your counters show?

I'd check physical layer. It is possible for T-1s to work amazingly well with one wire of one of the pairs open. Well enough to just give sporadic errors. Are the demarcatrion points extrended?

Well, you can put them in loopback, etc.

I'd eliminate the above, never needed it. Let the WIC set LBO automatically.

It is entirely possible that the carrier is clocking the circuit in which case you don't want the above. Does it work at all without the clock source internal command? What is telco seeing? Slips?
