Kaloyan,
I really appreciate your consideration and help.
I tried swapping the sigchans 109 with 140. But then this 4th link didnt
come up. I dont have extra hardware to verify 8 sigchans in lab.
I believe we are good. This seems provider end issue. Provider claimed to
have 8 links configured.
Can you point me how can we verify number of signalling links configured
without their help?
