enabling fxs port on Adtran 904 and 908e

[msylvester]

I'm attempting to configure an fxs port on an Adtran 904 after the device has been configured and active. I'm in the config via the GUI portal and would like the easiest steps to make this fxs port active. please advise on the best steps to take to enablean fxs port.

Msylvester,

Thanks for posting.  In order to enable an FXS port, you must create a voice user.  This is done in the "User Accounts" in the web GUI, just be sure to specify "Analog station" so that you are prompted for the specific FXS interface to match up to an available phone number for this site.  This process is pretty straightforward in the CLI as well.

voice user 5551000

  connect fxs 0/1

  sip-identity 5551000 T01 register auth-name 5551000 password 1234

The last line is optional, but I added it in case a registration is required by the softswitch.   Of course, you'll need to have an available phone number to use on this line and the SIP server may need some additional configuration for this to work properly.

Thanks!
