Introduction

The sample configuration in this document shows a Cisco 700 Series ISDN Digital Subscriber Line (IDSL) router connecting to a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) and terminating on a Cisco 6400 Universal Access Concentrator (UAC). The Cisco 766 has been configured with routing and Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) encapsulation.

Prerequisites

There are no specific prerequisites for this document.

Components Used

Cisco 700 series routers do not use Cisco IOS® Software. For information about the Cisco 700 series router software they do use and about commands, refer to Cisco 700 Series Router Software Release Notes.

Note: The Cisco 762, 766, 772, and 776 support IDSL using software versions 4.1 and later.

The information presented in this document was created from devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If you are working in a live network, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command before using it.

Background Information

The Cisco 766 is end-of-sale (EOS), but this configuration will be useful if you are still using Cisco 700 series routers.

Configure

In this section, you are presented with the information to configure the features described in this document.

Note: To find additional information on the commands used in this document, use the Command Lookup Tool (registered customers only) .

Configurations

The Internet Service Provider (ISP) has given the subscriber IP address 192.168.221.13 and subnet mask 255.255.255.252. This configuration sets the loop speed to 128 kbps but 56, 64, and 144-kbps speeds are also supported.
