Very Computer

Anyone can help me saying what I need for set up an ISDN TA (with Winbond
chipset) under FreeBSD an then what I need to see working it (ISDN4BSD)????
Thanx.

The easiest way to use ISDN on FreeBSD is to get an ISDN TA that acts like a
normal serial modem - e.g. an external one that connects to a serial port,
or an internal one that appears to the system as its own com port.

That way you can use the FreeBSD command 'ppp', just like you could with a
modem.  This is very quick and simple, and 100% effective I've found.

The advantage ISDN4BSD would bring is call logging, cost logging, monitoring
ISDN status, etc.

If your TA can do normal serial, I would recommend ppp - otherwise, try
ISDN4BSD.

HTH,

Tom

man isdnd
man ppp

/usr/share/examples/ppp/*.isdn
/usr/share/examples/ppp/isdnd.rc

Brian Somers made these conf files and they're pretty usable out of the
box, the only possible issue is << ERROR: idletime[900]+earlyhup[5] >
unitlength[150] >> that needs few adjustments in isdnd.rc.

Last you need at least FBSD3.4R to make a internal passive TA work with
userland ppp.

Search in isdn mailing list archive about Winbond chipset support.

Hope it helps, Regards.
