Spectro,

This configuration works fine to me. I have Merlin Legend with 2 DS1 100D cards - one goes to upstream PRI (Verizon) and the second one goes to Asterisk with T100P card. The timing is going from Verizon and asterisk configured as pri_net.

Crossover cable used between Merling Legend and Asterisk. Merling Legend is configured to Tandem PRI, so Asterisk can dial all extenstion and external numbers and all routing has been done using UDP - which is quite simple and work as charm.

There is a sample for Merlin Legend confiuraration (related to connecting between ML and (*) ) - Slot 10 => Asterisk, Slot 11 => Verizon PRI

Spectro,

I have a T100P connected to my Merlin Magix and it works like a champ.  I am
using an older T1 card (one pulled from a Merlin Legend) without any
problems.  The card is a "100D 1 T1 Trunk" blade.

I have my system configured as a PRI (23B+D).  The T100P is configured to
signal with pri_net and to provide timing.  I used the 5ESS protocol, but I
suppose any of the PRI variants supported by both devices would work.

I do not have (or need) any CSU/DSU equipment in between the two devices.  I
simply built a crossover T1 cable (warning - not the same as an Ethernet
cross-over cable) and connected the two devices.  The card and the switch
synched up and worked immediately.

The hardest part was programming the ARS table to properly make use of the
connection.

As for the insertion of the new card -- I had to do a "board renumber" and
it did mess with the dial plan on the switch a bit.  Stations did not
change, but the trunk numbering did.  (This may be specific to my
installation -- Magix/Legend are a field unto themselves.)

Good luck with the install.  My number is below if you have additional
questions.

Thanks,

Steve

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] asterisk T100P to Merlin Legend

Management just approved purchase of a Digium T100P and a T1 card for
our Merlin Legend Switch. I will appreciate comments from anyone
performing this installation before:

- Which T1 card did you use in the Merlin Legend?
- Did you require any special interface? (CSU/DSU, etc)
- Any items to watch during installation.

Also we will need to remove one of our old analog Trunk cards to
accomodate the new T1 interface in the switch. This switch already has
two T1 cards in it.  I don't know much about restriction in the Merlin
Legend Switch, but our phone tech told me some horror stories about
taking a card out of the switch. I know this is OT  and we will
probably have our switch part supplier to take care of that but I will
appreciate any comments.

Thanks in advance
