Named service event

NSE type attempts to standardize the transfer of

Non-IOS Gateway

(NSE) type

 

tones over real-time transport protocol (RTP). Two

 

 

 

NSE standards exist in Cisco products: one for

 

 

 

Cisco IOS gateways and one for non-Cisco IOS

 

 

 

gateways. The Catalyst 6500 Series Switch 8-port

 

 

 

T1/E1 PSTN interface module supports both

 

 

 

standards. You need to configure the right NSE type

 

 

 

based on the network setup. If the module needs to

 

 

 

talk to a Cisco IOS gateway (a VG200 or AS5300

 

 

 

for example), set this option to IOS Gateway. If the

 

 

 

gateways need to talk to other non-Cisco IOS

 

 

 

gateways (such as a WS-X6608-E1/T1, VG248, or

 

 

 

another WS-X6624-FXS), set this option to

 

 

 

non-IOS Gateway.

 

 

 

 

 

Hot Swapping

Hot swapping lets you remove and replace the 24-port FXS analog interface module while the system is operating. When the system detects that a module has been installed or removed, it automatically runs diagnostic and discovery routines, acknowledges the presence or absence of the module, and resumes system operation without any user intervention.

Power Management

Because the Catalyst 6500 series modules have different power requirements, certain switch configurations require more power than a single power supply can provide. Although the power management feature allows you to power all installed modules with two power supplies, redundancy is not supported in this configuration.
