Configuring DS0 Channels

he DSU/CSU provides channel configuration options that allow you to do the following:

Display the DS0 assignments for the network, DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1), and data port interfaces.

Allocate DS0 channels on the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) interface to the network interface.

Allocate DS0 channels on the network or DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) interface to particular data ports.

Clear (deallocate) all DS0 channels from the network, DTE Drop/Insert

T(DSX-1), or data port interface. Map data from one port to another.

To allocate DS0 channels, begin by defining the logical channel configuration for the network interface, and then the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) interface, and then any ports, if desired. See Figure 3-6, Example of Channel Allocation, for an example of a conceptual diagram of a channel configuration.

Blank configuration worksheets are provided at the back of Appendix C, Configuration Options. To complete the configuration worksheets for DS0 channel allocation:

1.Complete the Network Interface and the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) Interface tables (unless the DTE Drop/Insert interface is disabled) as shown in the examples in Figure 3-7, Example of Interface Worksheet for Network Interface, and Figure 3-8, Example of Interface Worksheet for DTE Drop/Insert Interface.

2.Complete the Robbed Bit Signaling (RBS) information worksheet as shown in the examples in Figure 3-9, Example of RBS Information Worksheet.

3.Using the worksheets shown in Figure 3-10, Port Channel Configuration Worksheet (Ports 1 and 2), and Figure 3-11, Port Channel Configuration Worksheet (Ports 3 and 4), circle the configuration options needed to implement the logical channel configuration.

Once you have completed the worksheets, enter this information using the procedures in Allocating Data Ports on page 3-38.
