Access Endpoint
This screen administers Access Endpoints and Wideband Access endpoints.
NOTE:
You can administer Wideband Access Endpoints only if, on the
System-Parameters Customer-Options screen, the Wideband Swit ching fi eld
is y.
An Access Endpoint is a nonsignaling trunk that neither responds to signaling nor
generates signaling. Access Endpoints eliminate the need to dedicate an entire
trunk group for the access of a single trunk by providing the capability to assign
an extension number to a single trunk. An Access Endpoint can be specif ied as t he
Originator or Destination endpoint of an administered connection.
A Wideband Access Endpoint (WAE) is an endpoint application connected to
line-side non-ISDN T1 or E1 facilities and, like Access Endpoints, have no
signaling interface with the system. For information on endpoint applications
connected to line-side ISDN-PRI facilities, see ‘‘PRI Endpoint’’ on page 853.
The WAE is defined by a st arting port (DS0) a nd a width s pecifying the number o f
adjacent nonsignaling DS0s (positioned within a DS1 facility) that make up the
endpoint. This width may be between 2 and 31 adjacent DS0s.
NOTE:
Access Endpoints and Wideband Access Endpoints consume the same
resources that trunks use. Thus, the sum of Access Endpoints and trunks
cannot exceed the maximum number of trunks available in your system
configuration.
