SmartSwitch 1800 Voice Conﬁguration

Figure 12-2. Voice Speed Dial ConÞguration Window

The top part of the window displays a list of conÞgured speed-dial numbers with associated long-dial and extended-dial strings. The bottom part of the window allows you to modify or add the following parameters:

Speed Dial Digits

This is the number of characters (1-4) conÞgured for Dial Digits in the Voice Parameters window (see ConÞguring System-Level Voice Parameters, page 12-2). A question-mark wildcard can be used for any single digit, and an asterisk wildcard can be used for any number of digits.

Long Dial Map

This is a six-digit number for which the speed-dial number is a shortcut. The number must identify its associated device as follows.

SmartSwitch 1800:

Digits 1-4 = Voice Node Number, 0001-9999, conÞgured in the Voice Parameters window (see ConÞguring System-Level Voice Parameters, page 12-2).

Digit 5 = 0 or 1. This digit is irrelevant on the SmartSwitch 1800, so either value can be used.

Digit 6= Channel number 4 or 5, which identiÞes the Voice Port. (Refer to Chapter 2, Using the FRX4000, FRX6000, and SmartSwitch 1800 Hub View for information on Voice Port numbers.)

Cabletron Systems, a leading player in network management and telecommunications solutions during the late 20th century, introduced several innovative products that played a crucial role in shaping enterprise networking. Among these were the Cabletron FRX6000, FRX4000, and the FRX1800, which delivered advanced features aimed at enhancing network performance, security, and scalability.

The Cabletron FRX6000 was designed as a robust multi-layer switch, ideal for large-scale enterprise environments. It supported extensive routing capabilities, allowing organizations to manage traffic efficiently even under heavy loads. The FRX6000 boasted high throughput rates and low latency, making it suitable for demanding applications. With support for various network protocols, including IP, IPX, and AppleTalk, its adaptability made it a versatile choice for diverse networking needs. Moreover, security features like VLAN support and Access Control Lists (ACLs) provided enhanced protection against potential threats.

Moving to the FRX4000, this model offered a balance between performance and cost-effectiveness. The FRX4000 maintained many of the essential features of its larger counterpart while catering to medium-sized enterprises. It provided Layer 3 routing and could handle multiple simultaneous connections, ensuring seamless communication across departments. The modular design allowed for easy upgrades, enabling businesses to expand their network infrastructure without significant overhauls. This made the FRX4000 an attractive option for organizations looking to optimize their network investments.

Lastly, the FRX1800, designed for small to medium businesses, focused on simplicity and ease of use while still incorporating powerful network management capabilities. Its user-friendly interface made it accessible for organizations lacking extensive IT resources. The FRX1800 provided essential functionalities such as Integrated Layer 2 switching and routing, network monitoring, and basic security features, ensuring that even smaller companies could maintain efficient, reliable networking without overwhelming complexity.

All three models utilized advanced technologies, including a high bandwidth backbone and state-of-the-art switching architecture, to enable fast and reliable data transfer. They also supported Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, allowing businesses to prioritize critical applications and ensure consistent performance across the network.

In summary, the Cabletron FRX6000, FRX4000, and FRX1800 were pivotal in enhancing network capabilities, providing organizations with scalable, secure, and high-performance options tailored to their specific needs.
