ATM Links

Common Parameters
The MTP_LINK command includes the following parameters:
•
•
•
<link_id>
The unique logical identity of the link. It must be in the range 0 to one less than the total number of signaling links supported.
<linkset_id>
The logical identity of the linkset to which the link belongs. The linkset must already have been configured using the MTP_LINKSET command.
<link_ref>
The logical identity within the linkset of the signaling link. It should be in the range 0 to one less than the number of links in the linkset.
•<slc>
The signaling link code for the signaling link. This must be unique within the linkset and is typically the same as <link_ref>. The valid range is 0 to 15.
•<flags>
A
Note: If the <data_rate> is set to "ATM", only bits 0 to 2 are significant.
—Bit 0 is set to 1 to force the use of the emergency proving period during link alignment or 0 to use the appropriate proving period according to the MTP3 recommendations.
—Bit 1 is set to 1 to cause a signaling link test (in accordance with
—Bit 2 is set to 1 to cause a signaling link test (in accordance with
—Bit 8 is used to select the MTP2 error correction mode. It is set to 1 to select PCR (Preventive Cyclic Retransmission) operation or 0 for the Basic Method of Error Correction.
—Bits 10 and 11 together select the appropriate operating bit rate for the link. The table below specifies the appropriate values for 48, 56, or 64 kbits/s.
Bit 10 | Bit 11 | Data Rate |
|
|

0 | 0 | 64 kbits/s |
|

|
0 | 1 | 48 kbits/s |

1 | 1 | Reserved |

Note: For framed HSL operation, these bits select the bit rate for each slot of the HSL link.
