Alcatel Unleashed

Has anyone ever had to configure a "Tech Path" T1 circuit through Paetec using the star ANI service?

When I trace incoming calls on this circuit I see numbers 11,6,10,3,8,9,10,1, but I'm told that we should only be receiving 4 digits.

These numbers do not have anything to do with our dialing plan and we CAN dial out but get a busy signal when dialing in.

Did you set up the translator ?
What do you see EXACTLY when you do a trace, for CALLED_NUMBER ?

The translator was set up properly and I believe that the traces that I had done show the number calling.

As it turns out, this circuit is a T1 CAS with the star ANI service and I'm told that Alcatel does not support this service with a T1 CAS. Do you know if this is true?

It sounds like we will need to get a PRI if we want to maintain caller ID and this will of course cost us more money.

No clue about that.. sorry i could not help

ANI is not supported. We used an Adtran 5500 to translate incoming T1 CAS to PRI.
