Question for you ISPs out there.
I am moving my NOC.
At the old location, I am using a Integrated T-1 from A********e via a circuit from PacBell. (Not my choice.)
The ISP has been waiting for PacBell to install the new circuit (line) at the new building before they can schedule to come out and move the router. They have stated that I can not move the router. But they will only do this during normal business hours.
PacBell has just come out to install the new circuit in the new building.
Shouldn't I just be able to bring the new circuit from the BP to the jack in the new server room, then plug in the router and it will be up and running on the new circuit?
In other words, won't the ISP router in my server room find the central ISP router and open the circuit?
It kinda depends on the circuit type. It's possible that the encapsulation is differant, and therefore, the config on the router would need to be changed. Also, a lot of times, the new circuit will use new Point to Point IP's on the serial interfaces. Which would also be a config change.
I'm suprised that they'll only do this during business hours. We have circuits with both Sprint and ATT, and anytime something at all happens, they are willing to do it when ever I want to!! Maybe a chit-chat with a manager will help??
