atcomsystems.ca/forum Forums TDM Business Telephone Systems Avaya - Lucent Telephones & Systems "Identifier Not Assigned" on unused ports

I have a G3si V6 that I need to add 6 new extensions. All of my unused ports say "Identifier Not Assigned" whenever I try to add a station or even 'disp port 01axxxx'. The TN746B cards/ports appear in Hardware Mgr., and 'l circuit-packs', so the system sees the cards and ports, just can't use them. 1 TN756B card has ports 2-8 available and in use, but not 1 or 8-16, the other card I get "Identifier Not Assigned" on all 16 ports.

I've tried:
busy the card, reset, release
moving the cards to different slots
thinking capacity issue, I deleted some extensions, no good, but was able to re-add the extensions I deleted back on their old ports, also 'disp sys cust' says I have 1500 port capacity.
swapped cards with known working ports, both ways, all cards and ports are good
beat my head against the side of the cabinet, got a headache

My next step is a 20 lb. sledge hammer, so any help before that happens would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rich

if you connect a set to that port do you get anything ??

Did you try to do a 'list station' and make sure something isn't assigned to those ports?
