[Asterisk-Users] ISDN (point to point) questions

[Danny Zak]

Hello Bjoern,

thanks for this nice discussion;

we we dod have msn (4) although the telco company tells us that we
have pp isdn.  This seems to be a little bit strange to me... Is there
any way to crosscheck the isdn configuration ?

And what about the active or passive isdn cards ?
I just want to drive voice and fax over them.
