I would sugest you have the phone company run a stress test to check out both ends of the circuit. A Remote loopback on the port in question followed with an All 1's or 511 BERT would also work. Check performance registers for the past 24 hours. You need to first assure that the channels assigned to DSU's data port are running error free. The next step would be to run a DTLB from the DSU to the router. The router must have HDLC encap working fo the router to see the loopback. The router should be able to see the loopback and the same number of RX frames as TX frames. I am assuming the Morningstar is not an edge router. If the DTLB passes, your router is misconfigured. If it fails, the DSU port or the router port is bad or misconfigured. You can figure this out by swapping ports.You may also have a bad cable. Good luck! peregrin2@my-dejanews.com wrote: > > Hi, > > If anyone out there has connected a Morninstar Express (I know it's old, > but...) to a fast non-frame-relay link, I would VERY much appreciate some > guidance from you on how to do it.
