Data Port Channel Allocation (appears for the block and ACAMI methods only). Designates the starting DS0 channel,
N1–N24 for the network interface.
Available selections are only those DS0 channels that provide enough bandwidth (based on the configured data rate) to
be used as a starting channel number.
Select the desired starting channel number by pressing the Function key under that number. When you make the
selection, the DSU/CSU allocates the correct amount of DS0 channels to support the data rate currently configured for
the port.
