Alcatel Unleashed

When we try to make external calls out of our system to the PSTN all etensions now reporting with "Congestion". The E1 service providers are saying there is no issue their side as incoming calls are fine. Here is the trace for the external calls

Could be a problem on another service provider in network but in any case you receive DISCONNECT from your provider so you could create a ticket.

You also have

When you decode Information Element, your first octet (82) cause for issue is "No route to specified transit network".
This is coming from your carrier. Therefore it's on their end. You should tell them that the information element message you receive in your isdn trace mention that THEY are telling you there is no route to the transit network.
