Overview
ISDN errors are reported in the isdnCallHistoryTable. Errors originating from the ISDN are reported in the
DSS1Cause and 1TR6Causefc fields, depending on which
service youre using (Euro ISDN and National ISDN repectively). Errors originating locally on the BinTec router are
reported in the LocalCause field.

DSS1 Causes (Euro ISDN)
DSS1 causes are reported in the DSS1Cause field of the isdnCallHistoryTable
Software Reference
0x80:
Normal call clearing
No error occurred.
0x81:
Unallocated (unassigned) number This cause indicates
that the destination, requested by the calling user cannot be reached because, although the number is in a
valid format, it is not currently assigned (allocated).
0x82:
No route to specified transit network
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this
cause has received a request to route the call through a
particular transit network which it does not recognise.
The equipment sending this cause does not recognise
the transit network either, because the transit network
does not exist or because that particular, while it does
exist, does not service the equipment which is sending
this cause.
This cause is supported on a network-dependent basis.
0x83:
No route to destination
This cause indicates that the called user can not be
reached because the network through which the call
has been routed does not serve the destination desired.
This cause is supported on a network-dependent basis.
0x86:
Channel unacceptable
This cause indicates the channel most recently identified
is not acceptable to the sending entity for use in this call.
0x87:
Call awarded & being delivered
This cause indicates that the user has been awarded the
incoming call, and that the incoming call is being connected to a channel already established to that similar
calls (e.g. packet-mode X.25 virtual calls).
0x90:
Normal call clearing
This cause indicates that the call is being cleared be-

cause one of the users involved in the call has requested
that the call be cleared.
0x91:
10
ISDN Error Codes
User busy
This cause is used when the called user has indicated
the inability to accept another call.
Software Reference
DSS1 Causes (Euro ISDN)
Software Reference
0x92:
User not responding
This cause is used when a user does not respond to a call
establishment message with either an alerting or connect indication within the prescribed period of time allocated.
0x93:
No answer from user (user alerted)
This cause is used when a user has provided an alerting
indication but has not provided a connect indication
within a prescribed period o f time.
0x95:
Call rejected
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this
cause does not wish to accept this call, although it
could have accepted the call because the equipment
sending this cause is neither busy nor incompatible.
0x96:
Number changed
This cause is returned to a calling user when the called
party number indicated by the calling user is no longer
assigned.
0x9a:
Non-selected user clearing
This cause indicates that the user has not been awarded
the incoming call.
0x9b:
Destination out of order
This cause indicates that the destination indicated by
the user can not be reached because the interface to
the destination is not functioning correctly. The term not
functioning correctly indicates that signalling message
was unable to be delivered to the remote user; e.g. a
physical layer or data link layer failure at the remote user,
user-equipment off-line.
0x9c:
Invalid number format
This cause indicates that the called user can not be
reached because the called party number is not in a
valid format or is not complete.

0x9d:
Facility rejected
This cause is returned when a facility requested can not
be provided by the network.
0x9e:
Response to STATUS ENQUIRY
This cause included in the STATUS message when the
reason for generating the STATUS message was the prior
receipt of a STATUS ENQUIRY message.
0x9f:
Normal, unspecified
This caused is used to report a normal event only when
no other cause in the normal class applies.
Resource unavailable class
12
0xa2:
No circuit/channel available
This cause indicates that there is no appropriate circuit/
channel presently available to handle the call.
0xa6:
Network out of order
This cause indicates that the network is not functioning
correctly and that the condition is likely to last a relatively long period of time; e.g. immediately reattempting
the call is not likely to be successful.
0xa9:
Temporarily failure
This cause indicates that the network is not functioning
correctly and that the condition is not likely to last a long
period of time; e.g. the user may wish to try another call
attempt almost immediately.
0xaa:
Switching equipment congestion
This cause indicates that the switching equipment generating this cause is experiencing a period of high traffic.
0xab:
Access Information discarded
This cause indicates that the network could not deliver
access information to the remote user as requested. i.e.
a user-to-user information, low layer compatibility, high

layer compatibility or subaddress as indicated in the diagnostic.

0xac:
Requested circuit/channel not available
This cause is returned when the circuit or channel indicated by the requesting entity cannot be provided by
the other side of the interface.
0xaf:
Resources unavailable, unspecified

only when no other cause in the resource unavailable
class applies.

Service/option not available class
0xb1:
Quality of service unavailable
This cause is used to report that the requested quality of
service, as defined in the ITU-T recommendation X.213,
cannot be provided (e.g. throughput or transit delay
cannot be supported).
0xb2:
Requested facility not subscribed
This cause indicates that the requested supplementary
service could not be provided by the network because
the user has not completed the necessary administrative arrangements with its supporting network.
0xb9:
Bearer Capability not authorized
This cause indicates that the user has requested a bearer capability which is implemented by the equipment
which generated this cause but the user is not authorized to use.
0xba:
Bearer Capability not presently available
This cause indicates that the user has requested a bearer capability which is implemented by the equipment
which generated this cause but which is not available
this time.
0xbf:
Service or option not available, unspec.
This cause is used to report a service or option not available event only when no other cause in the service or
option not available class applies.

Bearer capability not implemented
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this

0xc2:
Channel type not implemented
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this
cause does not support the channel type requested.
0xc5:
Requested facility not implemented
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this
cause does not support the requested supplementary
service.
0xc6:
Only restricted digital info. bearer cap. is available
This cause indicates that one equipment has requested
an unrestricted bearer services but that the equipment
sending this cause only supports the restricted version or
the restated bearer capability.

Service or option not implemented, unspecified
This cause is used to report a service or option not implemented event only when no other cause in the service
or option not implemented class applies.
Invalid message class
Software Reference
0xd1:
Invalid call reference value
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this
cause has received a message with a call reference
which is not currently in use on the user-network interface.
0xd2:
Identified channel does not exist
This cause indicates that the equipment sending this
cause has received a request to use a channel not activated on the interface for a call. For example, if a user
has subscribed to those channels on a primary rate interface numbered from 1 to 12 and the user equipment or
the network attempts to use channels 13 to 30 this cause
is generated.
0xd3:
A suspended call exist, but call identity does not
This cause indicates that a call resume has been attempted with a call identity which differs from that in use
