Re: (ASCEND) TNT multishelf setups

Hi,
         Thanks for the reply.  Unfortunately, I'm terminating 3 DS3's 
worth of calls in one hunt group and need to be able to handle MP calls if 
they come in across seperate boxes.

         In theory, you are not supposed to need the HDLC card if you are 
using the CSM3 cards.  We found out through trial and error that there is a 
bug, at least in the US code, that prevents the TNT from accepting DOV 
calls.  You can set the number under the DNIS profile to be digital, but 
the CSM3 card still passes the call to a modem instead of HDLC.  As of 
right now, the HDLC card is required if you want to accept DOV, DOSBS, Toll 
miser, or whatever you wish to call ISDN over voice service from the telco.
