Network Interface Configuration Options

Table C-3. Network Interface Configuration Options (1 of 3)

NET Framing: ESF (Factory 1) D4 (Factory 2)

Next D4 ESF Prev

Network Line Framing Format. The framing format to be used on the network interface.

D4 – Configures for the D4 framing format.

ESF – Configures for the Extended Superframe format.

NET Coding: B8ZS (Factory 1) AMI (Factory 2)

Next AMI B8ZS Prev

Network Line Coding Format. The line coding format to be used on the network interface.

AMI – Configures for the Alternate Mark Inversion coding format.

B8ZS – Configures for the Bipolar 8 Zero Suppression coding format.

LBO: 0.0

Next 0.0 –7.5 –15 –22.5 Prev

Line Build Out. The line build out (LBO) for the signal transmitted to the network (0.0 dB is the factory default).

ANSI PRM: Disab

Next Enab Disab Prev

Generate ANSI Performance Report Messages. Specifies whether ANSI T1.403 compliant performance report messages (PRMs) are generated.

Enab – Generates and sends ANSI PRMs over the FDL every second.

Disab – Prevents the DSU/CSU from generating ANSI PRMs.

NOTE: This configuration option is only available if the framing format is set to ESF.

Mgmt Link: Disab

Next Enab Disab Prev

FDL Management Link. Specifies whether Facility Data Link (FDL) is enabled. Selecting Enab allows SNMP or Telnet traffic to flow over the 4 kbps data link provided by FDL. Running SNMP or Telnet over FDL requires an end-to-end FDL connection and cannot be terminated within the network.

Enab – Enables the FDL management link for SNMP or Telnet.

Disab – Disables the FDL management link.

NOTES:

This configuration option is only available if the framing format is set to ESF.

This configuration option is not available if EDL is enabled.

If the local DSU/CSU’s FDL is enabled, the remote DSU/CSU’s FDL must also be enabled.
