Figure 6 3 ACS PRI BRI Links to Two Carriers from an ISDN PBX Server Cards 6 5 Introduction ACS PRI BRI Card 6 1 3 Network and User Side Protocols In the example application shown in Figure 6 3 there is an important difference between the two D channels terminating in the carrier switches and the D channel terminating in the user s PBX The ISDN signaling protocol that runs on the D channel is not symmetrical Signaling messages are treated differently depending on whether the D channel is setup to run the network side protocol or the user side protocol All carrier switches run the network side protocol and all user devices connected directly to a network switch must run the user side protocol In general network side applications cannot be connected to other network side applications Local routing the exception to this rule is explained in the next section Figure 6 4 shows how the application in Figure 6 3 would be set up if the user s PBX was not connected to the system The disadvantage of this configuration is that the PBX may not be able to support two D channels may not be able to handle the differences in D channel protocols between the two carriers and may not be able to route calls to the appropriate carrier Carrier B ISDN Switch Carrier A ISDN Switch Network Side User Side ISDN PBX Figure 6 4 ACS PRI BRI Links to Two Carriers Figure 6 5 shows how the
