Author FXS Help - Call From Either Router Allways Busy

GDay Everyone,
Just hoping you all may be able to shed some light
onto this for me. This is the fist time I have tired to configure FXS ports
and its proving to be getting the better of me. I have 2 routers (2610XM)
connected together via a serial back to back. in each of these routers I
have a 2FXS card in each NM-1V module. I have followed a basic configuration
and I get a dial tone in the ear handset but for the life of me I am
continually getting a busy tone from each phone. When the phone is taken off
hook I do get a green light on the vic. Below is the configuration

Router A
hostname Router-A
voice-port 1/0/0
voice-port 1/0/1
dial-peer voice 1 pots
destination-pattern 1111
port 1/0/0
dial-peer voice 2 voip
destination-pattern 2222
session target ipv4:10.1.1.2
interface Serial0/0
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
no fair-queue

Router B
hostname Router-B
voice-port 1/1/0
voice-port 1/1/1
dial-peer voice 1 pots
destination-pattern 2222
port 1/1/0
dial-peer voice 2 voip
destination-pattern 1111
session target ipv4:10.1.1.1
interface Serial0/0
ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0
no fair-queue
clockrate 4000000

I can ping from either router the other router OK. Any thoughts would be of
great advantage. Thanks for you assistance

John

Everyone,
I have found the solution. It was to do with my phones. If
you connect a non US phone to port 0 it wont work Here is a url that
might help anyone else in the future.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk6... 80094fac.shtml
The information under Pinout Information
Port 0 on a VIC-2FXS is designed to accommodate a US style 2-line phone,
instead of the usual European style 1-line phone.

This means that in addition to pins 3 and 4 being used, pins 2 and 5 are
also monitored. With some phone handsets it is possible that pins 2 and 5
are wired up to allow last number re-call or call-forwarding. If this is the
case, Port 0 on the VIC will assume you have a 2-line phone, and shutdown
port 1.



Hope this helps

John

It is also important to understand that this pinout is for SIX pins on a
RJ11. In the US it is
standard for just about all phone plugs to have pins 1 and 6 not even
present on an RJ-11.
Many jacks and such are labeled pins 1-4, particularly stuff aimed at the
consumer.
