CLI Commands
connect
connect
Use the connect command to create two-way connections between any DS0 channels of the
service or controller cards.
Syntax: connect {slot:port|slot:port:channel}
{slot:port|slot:port:channel}
Use the disconnect command to delete connections.
Example: connect A:2:1-24 3:1
Connects all 24 channels on port address #2 (DS1) on the controller card
(slot A) to port address #1 V.35 in slot 3.
{slot:port|slot:port:channel}

connect (bri) [4:1 mode]

Use the connect (bri) command to create two-way connections between DS0 channels of a BRI
card and a controller card.
Syntax: connect {slot:port:channel|slot:port}
{slot:port:channel|slot:port}
Example: connect A:1:1 3:1 B1
connect A:1:2 3:1 B2
connect A:1:3 3:1 D
Where B1, B2 or D indicate how the DS0 will be used.
The B1 and B2 must be entered for each BRI port to be connected.
The D indicator applies to 4 BRI ports at a time. The groups are always ports 1-2 for a dual
card, ports 1-4 for quad and octal and ports 5-8 for octal cards.
In the 3rd command in the example above, the connect command will connect BRI D
channel for ports 1-4 (if an octal or quad card. Dual card, ports 1-2) to the DS0 specified
by a A:1:3. The user will NOT need to enter the D channel connection for ports 2-4 on the
BRI in slot 3.
In this case, connect A:1:4 3:2 d will fail.
Similarly connect A:1:4 3:5 d will connect BRI D channel for ports 5-8 to A:1:4.
slot A for the controller card, or 1 - 6 for service cards.
