OK, I know this thread is now a bit old, but I'm feeling pigheaded. This is a
resend. Sorry if it appears twice (or three times).
Using 'reload in xx' occured to me (or just have somebody on standby at the
remote site to reboot the router - high-tech solutions aren't always necessary
:-), but changing the switch-type needs a reload to take effect (at least with
IOS 11.2, maybe it's different in later versions). So you have to save and
reload before you've changed anything anyway.
Anyway, Ole, glad your problem is fixed - don't you *hate* problems like that?!
(although they are admittedly better than problems where you can't find the
cause and they *don't* go away)

A little trick I learn from a CCIE.
If you are doing a configuration on a remote site, use "reload in XXXX".
Make sure you have save the working config to flash. Put in reload in XXXX,
than do your work. If you loss connect, you just sit there and wait till
the router reload automatically and restore the working config. If you
don't loss connect, make sure you cancel the reload or you will loss all the
changes.

Subject: ISDN Switch Type
I am trying to troubleshoot a slow WAN request time between a remote branch
office and my network, and I can see that the switch type is set to 5ESS on
the remote router (which I am looking at with telnet). On all my routers
here, and at another remote office, the switch types are all NI-1.
The question is - would the router be able to communicate at all with a
switch type set to 5ESS the switch really is an NI-1?
If I assume that it would be able to communicate, I could change it remotely
from 5ESS to NI-1 to see if it should help the slow request time, and then
change it back again if not.
If I assume that it would not be able to communicate, I would loose my
feature of communicating with it remotely when changing from 5ESS to NI-1,
and the office would be completely down until I could get someone to move a
pc over by their router and connect it with a console cable and change it
back.
Any comments are appreciated,
Ole
