Activation

Explanation

The Activation parameter tells the MAX which signals control the data flow through the serial WAN port. The DCE to which the serial WAN port is connected (for example, a Frame Relay switch) determines how to set the serial WAN port Activation value. Flow control is always handled by the Clear To Send (CTS) signal.

Currently, the Activation parameter supports only one value: Static.

Making a profile the working profile

When the TAOS unit detects that a SWAN card has been installed, it creates a default SWAN profile for each of the lines on the card.

In the following example, the Dir command displays default SWAN line profiles created for a card installed in slot 2:

admin> dir SWAN

30512/11/1996 15:58:20 { shelf-1 slot-2 1 }

30512/11/1996 15:58:20 { shelf-1 slot-2 2 }

30512/11/1996 15:58:20 { shelf-1 slot-2 3 }

30512/11/1996 15:58:20 { shelf-1 slot-2 4 }

By default, the line is not enabled, which means that it is not available for use. Its default signaling method is inband, typically used for channelized connections.

To list the parameters in a SWAN profile, use the List command, as in the following example:

admin> list name = ""

physical-address* = { any-shelf any-slot 0 } enabled = no

line-config = { 0 0 static { any-shelf any-slot 0 } }

Following is an example of a SWAN profile, with its parameters set to sample values:

SWAN { shelf-N slot-N N } name = 1:14:2

physical-address* = { shelf-1 slot-14 2 } enabled = no

line-config trunk-group = 0 nailed-group = 2 activation = static call-route-info

shelf = any-shelf slot = any-slot item-number = 0
