Customer with OR-U normally connects to ISP PM-2 over BRI's as shown
below. This setup was working for ~nine months until thunderstorm
activity last week:
------ ------
| OR-U |---BRI----| Telco |---BRI-----| PM-2 |
------ ------
Situation now:
- OR-U can complete ISDN call to PM-2 but cannot establish PPP.
- OR-U CAN establish PPP with a test PM-2 via a long-distance ISDN.
- PM-2 can establish PPP via long-distance call to same test box.
- Telco says "nothin' wrong with our gear"
- IP configs on OR-U and PM-2 have been verified and re-verified.
Summation:
Boxes at both endpoints can make successful PPP connections using the
circuits and ports in question; they just can't make them with each
other via the local switching equipment. Telco states they can't
possibly be part of the problem at the PPP layer.
Any help appreciated.
