I would say victims[2554] += 3; as we have noticed this problem on at least 3 customer machines in- cluding our own ones. The bad thing is, we are 90% ISDN and give the modem pool just for completeness. But following the upgrade path to get the modem pool working just remotely correct, we got a defective ISDN call handling now. What to do ? I'll likely go down to p13 and tell the modem users they have a problem - don't I ? Here is a D Channel trace of what happens when the problem strikes: RCV: NL: <proto DSS1> <callref caller 04ec> <msgtype SETUP> <Bearer Capability, cap Unrestricted digital, mode circuit, rate 64 kbps> <Channel ident, PRI/other, exclusive, B channel units, channel #08> <Calling party number, type National, plan ISDN (E.164), pres allowed, scree n user+passed, # 35205XXXXXX <Called party number, type Subscriber, plan ISDN (E.164), # 47XXXXX RCV: NL: <proto DSS1> <callref caller 04ec> <msgtype SETUP> <Bearer Capability, cap Unrestricted digital, mode circuit, rate 64 kbps> <Channel ident, PRI/other, exclusive, B channel units, channel #08> <Calling party number, type National, plan ISDN (E.164), pres allowed, screen user+passed, # 35205XXXXXX <Called party number, type Subscriber, plan ISDN (E.164), # 47XXXXX RCV: NL: <proto DSS1> <callref caller 04ec> <msgtype DISCONNECT> <Cause, loc LN, code 66 (102)> XMIT: NL: <proto DSS1> <callref callee 04ec> <msgtype RELEASE COMPLETE> <Cause, loc U, code 51 (81)> Interpretation: The MAX receives a SETUP for an incoming call. It doesn't even remotely try to process it. After the timeout, the network sends the SETUP again. Doesn't seem to bother the MAX, either. Now after the second timeout, the network disconnects the call, sending a Cause Code 102 (Timer expiry) issued from the LN (local network). Now the MAX acks this DISCONNECT with a RELEASE COMPLETE, telling the network that it would never before have heard of this call (cause 81 means "Invalid Call reference"). Is this TR#2554 ? If yes, please add 3 to the victims list and increase the priority, because this bug _kills_ us. We've lost nearly a full weekend now for this. And BTW, when the max stops processing calls, it is no longer just a HDLC problem. It answers _no_ calls anymore, also analog calls are dropped.
