Clearing DS0 Channel Allocation

Configuration

Allocating Data Ports Using the Individual Channel Assignment

Method

By using the individual channel assignment method, you can assign a data port to individual DS0 channels on either the network interface or the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) interface.

This method individually selects the DS0 channels to allocate to the data port. The data port rate is automatically determined based on the number of channels selected.

"Procedure

To assign data ports by the individual channel method:

1.From the Main Menu screen, select Configuration.

2.From the Load Configuration From screen, select Current.

3.From the Configuration Edit/Display screen, select Cross Connect.

4.From the Cross Connect screen, select Sync Data Port Assignments.

5.Use the Assign To field to specify the destination T1 interface (Network or DTE).

6.Use the Assign By field to specify the assignment method (Channel).

7.Specify the port assignments for the individual DS0 channels. The DS0 channels do not need to be contiguous.

The port rate increases as the port is assigned to additional DS0 channel. For two DS0 channels (at 64 kbps each), a port rate of 128 kbps is required.

8.Select Save or, if you want to return to the Cross Connect screen, press your Esc key and then save your changes from that screen.
