The Taqua is 1 too?  Regardless of Asterisk's setting, it shows the SLC 0.  Setting the Taqua to 1 causes the F-Link to go down and Asterisk complains.

Your values match the timers in Taqua's default Linkset settings.  I'm betting you could probably change them in the switch to match the default mtp2.h, but I tried your suggestion anyway.

I got a couple more lines of useful info when the link comes up, but I'm still getting complaints of unconfigured CICs and the T7000 shows the CICs as being blocked.

I'm running Asterisk 1.6.2.6, libss7 1.0.2, libpri 1.4.10.2, and dahdi-2.2.1.
