Specifying E1 signaling
An E1 line’s signaling mode can be any of the following:
•ISDN
•DPNSS (DPNSS or DASS 2 signaling)
•Channel-associated signaling (CAS). CAS signaling modes includes the following:
–E1-R2-Signaling (R2 signaling)
–E1-Argentina-Signaling
–E1-Brazil-Signaling
–E1-Chinese-Signaling (R2 signaling used in China)
–E1-Czech-Signaling
–E1-India-Signaling
–E1-Korean-Signaling (R2 signaling used in Korea)
–E1-Malaysia-Signaling
–E1-Metered-Signaling (metered R2 signaling, used in Brazil and South Africa)
–E1-Philippine-Signaling
–E1-P7-Signaling (R2 P7)
–R1-Inband
In the E1 profile Line-Interface subprofile, configure E1 signaling as follows:
admin> read e1 {1 2 1}
E1/{ shelf-1 slot-2 1 } read
admin> set line signaling-mode = signalingmode
admin> write
E1/{ shelf-1 slot-2 1 } written
Replace signalingmode with one of the modes listed above. If you are using one of the
CAS signaling modes, you must also set the Switch-Type parameter to CAS.
For more information on the E1 signaling parameters, see the APX 8000/MAX TNT/DSLTNT
Reference.
Configuring ISDN PRI signaling
For ISDN signaling you must also specify the type of switch providing E1/PRI service to your
TAOS unit. Obtain the information from your ISDN carrier.
When you set the signaling mode to ISDN, you must also set channel 17 as the Dchannel.
Note that ISDN signaling often requires ESF framing and B8ZS encoding.
