Jan, this is how we handle - we unmanage the ISDN (BRI or whatever)
interfaces - icon is now green. Then we turn on the ISDN traps on the
cisco routers via the configuration command "snmp-server enable traps
isdn". We then take automatic action on the ISDN traps which are Cisco
Enterprise Specific trap #2 to alert our operations staff.
