Chapter 13 Configuring the 2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 SPAs

Configuration Tasks

Configuring Data Service Unit Mode

Configure the SPA to connect with customer premise Data Service Units (DSUs) by setting the DSU mode. Subrating a T3 or E3 interface reduces the peak access rate by limiting the data transfer rate. To configure the DSU mode and bandwidth, use the following commands:

Command

Purpose

 

 

Router# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

 

 

Router(config)# interface serial slot/subslot/port

Selects the interface to configure and enters

 

interface configuration mode.

 

slot/subslot/port— Specifies the location of the

 

interface. See the: “Specifying the Interface

 

Address on a SPA” section on page 13-5

 

 

T3:

Specifies the interoperability mode used by a T3

Router(config-if)# dsu mode {0 1 2 3 4}

controller.

 

E3:

0—Connects a T3/E3 controller to another

T3/E3 controller or to a Digital Link DSU

Router(config-if)# dsu mode {0 1}

(DL3100 in T3 mode and DL3100E in E3

 

mode). This is the default.

 

1—Connects a T3/E3 controller to a Kentrox

 

DataSMART T3/E3 IDSU.

 

2—Connects a T3 controller to a Larscom

 

Access-T45 DS3 DSU.

 

3—Connects a T3 controller to an Adtran

 

T3SU 300.

 

4—Connects a T3 controller to a Verilink

 

HDM 2182.
