cross-connect <#> <from interface> <slot/port> <tdm-group#>

<to interface> <slot/port>

Use the cross-connect command to create a cross-connect map from a created TDM group on an interface
to a virtual interface.
Syntax Description
<#> Identifies the cross-connect using a number descriptor or label for (useful in
systems that allow multiple cross-connects).
<from interface> Specifies the inter face (physical or virtual) on one end of the cross-co nnect. Enter
cross-connect 1 ? for a list of valid interfaces.
<slot/port> Used when a physical interface is specified in the <from interface> subcommand
(For example: specifying the T1 port of a T1 module would be t1 1/1).
<tdm-group#> Specifies which configured TDM group to use for this cross-connect. This
subcommand only applies to T1 physical interfaces.
<to interface> Specifies the virtual interface on the other end of the cross-connect. Use the ? to
display a list of valid inte rf ac es.
<slot/port> Used when a physical interface is specified in the <to interface> subcommand.
(For example, specifying the primary T1 port of a T1 module would be t1 1/1).
Default Values
By default, there are no configured cross-co nnects.
Applicable Platforms
Applies to all AOS products
Command History
Release 1.1 Command was introduced.
Release 5.1 Command was expanded to include the E1 interface.
Functional Notes
Cross-connects provide the mechanism for connecting a configured virtual (layer 2) endpoint with a
physical (layer 1) interface. Supported layer 2 protocols include Frame Relay and point-to-point protocol
(PPP).
Changing cross-connect settings could potentially result in service interruption.
