Hub and T1

Is there anyway to connect a T1 circuit into a hub (or whatever) and then into a Cisco CSU/DSU? I need to be able to see packets coming out of the T1 circuit and going into the csu/dsu.

That's what I though. How would I do it with a CSU/DSU? From what I am looking at there isn't a way to do it with the csu/dsu.
what type of circuit is plugged into the CSU?  and do you see errors CRC Frame ect?

Thanks
scott
T1 circuit. No errors.
what type of T1 point to point or frame?  and what is on the other end?

Thanks
Scott
it's going into a PRN cloud. Encapsulation is HDLC.
so when you do a show int s0/0 or whatever what do you see or get?

Thanks
Scott

maybe I am missing something here so lets take a step back you are recieving packets on the serial .... what are you trying to do or determine?

5 minute input rate 35000 bits/sec, 22 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 295000 bits/sec, 31 packets/sec

are you trying to determine type of traffic???

Thanks
scott
no . We have an application that uses FTP to transfer data. at two of our locations the FTP traffic stops as soon as it starts sending 167 byte packets. According to a packet sniffer, the server site is sending the packets and when sniffing at the client location, that location is never receiving them. So i wanted to check to see if the packets are even getting out of the router and onto the T1.
clear counters and start your ftp when it supposedly stops sending look at the counters are they still incementing if so your data is still hitting the T1.

Thanks

The provider cannot see the info either since it's a PRN network.
