Step 1 Use the enable command and password to enter privileged EXEC mode. You are in privileged EXEC mode when the prompt changes to Gateway#.

Gateway> enable

Password: password

Gateway#

Step 2 Enter global configuration mode. You are in global configuration mode when the prompt changes to Gateway(config)#.

Gateway# configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Gateway(config)#

Step 3 Enter controller configuration mode to configure your T3 controller for slot 1 port 0. Slot values range from 1 to 7. Port number is always 0.

Gateway(config)# controller t3 1/0

Gateway(config-controller)#

Step 4 Enter your telco’s framing type, either c-bitor m23:

Gateway(config-controller)# framing c-bit

Step 5 Enter your clock source, either internal or line:

Gateway(config-controller)# clock source line

Step 6 Enter your cable length. Values range from 0 to 450 feet.

Gateway(config-controller)# cablelength 450

Step 7 Configure your T1 controllers. Range is 1 to 28. In this instance, all 28 T1s are configured at once.

Gateway(config-controller)# t1 1-28 controller

or

Omit specified T1 controllers while configuring others. In this instance, T1 controllers 11-14, 21, 22, and 24-28 are not configured.

Gateway(config-controller)# t1 1-10,15-20,23 controller

Step 8 Return to privileged EXEC mode:

Gateway(config-controller)# Ctrl-Z

Gateway#

Tip To save the gateway configuration, save it to NVRAM. Refer to the “Saving Configuration Changes” section on page 57.

Verify

To verify that your controller is up and running and that no alarms have been reported:

Enter the show controller command and specify the controller type, slot, and port numbers:

Gateway# show controller t3 1/0

T3 1/0 is up.

Applique type is Channelized T3

No alarms detected.

MDL transmission is disabled

FEAC code received:No code is being received

Framing is C-BIT Parity, Line Code is B3ZS, Clock Source is Internal
