Lucent Technologies Release 8.2 manual Est Conn, Ext, Destination Number, Conn Mod

Other Networking-Related DEFINITY Screens			A Screens Reference
Est Conn	If the physical link is over a DS1 interface, it is possible (except for ISDN signaling
	links) for one switch to set up the entire connection (see Destination below). In this
	case, the other switch will not initiate any part of the connection between the two
	endpoints. Typically, when using a DS1 interface, the Enable field is y on both the
	originating and terminating switches but only one link between the two switches will
	have Est Conn set to y. The originating switch is defined as having Est Conn set to y.
	Valid entries	Usage
	y	The System is responsible for any part of the call setup
		required for the link between the System and the far-end data
		module. Should be y if the link is to be used for ISDN
		signaling.
	n	The System is not responsible for any part of the call setup.
Ext	The extension of the associated local data module for this link.This field is similar to
	the pre-R7 PI Ext field for the si model and the X.25 Extension field for the r model.
Type	The type of connection — x.25, ethernet, or ppp. This field replaces the pre-R7
	Protocol field.The type of connection — x.25, ethernet, or ppp.
Destination Number	This field is similar to the pre-R7 Destination Digits field for the si model and the
	Destination Number field for the r model. Displays the destination of the link. It does
	not apply to Ethernet links.
DTE/DCE	Applies to si-models only. It is administered on the Data Module screen — type
	proc-intf for the si model and type x.25 for the r-mode. If one endpoint of a link is
	DTE, then the other must be DCE, and vice versa. The assignments must be
	coordinated on a network-wide level. Endpoint Switch Links are generally DTE and
	Tandem links are generally DCE. If both endpoints are of the same type (that is,
	endpoints or tandem), then the assignment of which is DTE and which is DCE is
	arbitrary. Typically, when using a DS1 interface, the originating switch should be
	administered as DTE and the terminating switch as DCE.
Conn Mod.	This field is similar to the pre-R7 Connected Data Module field. It is administered on
	the Data Module screen — type proc-intf for the si model and type x.25 for the r
	model.
Name	Used for identification purposes only. It is administered on the Data Module screen.
	This field is similar to the pre-R7 Identification field.
