Nortel to Cisco Wan Link
I have a nortel Router in one site runing LLC, IP and ospf. I need to put a cisco at the other end of the Wan link. I have verfied that the T1 is good by having 2 Cisco's at each end and 2 nortel routers on the ckt. when i mix the rotuers i have can not get the circuirt up and running. I have configured both ends with IP and the proper subnet.
nortel
IP 206.220.24.9 255.255.255.252
LLC
ospf
Cisco
Ip
206.220.24.10 255.255.255.252
enc PPP
I am not sure where to go from here.

If you are using ppp encapsulation, on the Cisco side, try setting the serial interface mtu to 1492 to match the Nortel

Tried setting the MTU to 1492 no line still down. I belive the LLC layer is not comming up and i am not sure why.
It's been awhile since I worked with a Nortel router (actually, they were called Bay routers back then :-)). but I recall them having two serial encapsulations Standard (which was Bay's HDLC) and PPP. When we connected a Bay to a Cisco using serial links, we set the interfaces to PPP on both ends.
When Nortel acquired Bay, did they change the terminology and now they're refering to PPP as LLC?
