T1 Modem Bank Configuration

The T1 Modem Bank can be configured in the field for specific network needs by one of four methods:

QuickManager mode

DGT1CFG.NLM mode (used on Novell systems only). See “Configuring the T1 Modem Banks” on page 36 for instructions on using the DGT1CFG.NLM utility.

terminal port mode

display panel mode

It is easier and less time-consuming to configure a T1 Modem Bank using QuickManager or DGT1CFG.NLM than to use the terminal port or the display panel. In addition, QuickManager can perform management functions like advanced configuration, monitoring, and testing.

Configuring via QuickManager

QuickManager is started by clicking the “Digi” program group, and then clicking the QuickManager icon. (Clicking the ConfigWizard icon in the “Digi” program group allows you to initially configure the T1 Modem Banks, but ConfigWizard does not perform the management functions that QuickManager does). Clicking “Window” in the main menu will allow you to view the current configuration settings, change the configuration settings, or run a test on the selected component. (You can alternatively click the applicable button below the main menu). Figure 19 shows an example screen for the status of a line card.
