ISDN ProxyServer Quick Start Guide
Before You Start Loading your Software
Consider the following choices before you configure your Proxy- Server and record your selections on the following pages; then refer to them while loading your software.
Network Configuration
Network Switch Type_______________________________
Select the network switch type your ISDN service provider uses at its local central office. You can set the ProxyServer to NET3 (DSS1), 1TR6, VN4, INS64,
Data TEI__________________________________________
The Data TEI is the TEI that is assigned to the data channel. You can select “Auto TEI,” a fixed TEI (from 0 to 63), or “Dis- abled.” A TEI (terminal endpoint identifier) is a number used by the central office switch to uniquely identify each device that is connected to the network. When it uses dynamic TEI assign- ments (Auto TEI), the central office switch assigns a TEI each time the ProxyServer connects to the network. However, the ISDN service provider may assign a fixed TEI at subscription time, in which case you must configure the ProxyServer with the fixed TEI number. You can also disable the channel, which may be useful when multiple ProxyServers are attached to a network termina- tor bus.
Voice TEI_________________________________________
The Voice TEI is the TEI assigned to the voice channel. You have the same choices as for the Voice TEI: “Auto TEI,” a fixed TEI number (from 0 to 63), or “Disabled.”
Data SPID________________________________________
The ProxyServer must be configured with the Service Profile Identifier (SPID). The data SPID is assigned by the local phone company and is for the specific BRI line to which the ProxyServ- er will be attached. The data SPID string can have up to 20 characters. The data SPID is not used if the switch type is set to NET3.
