Patton electronic SmartNode 4110 Series manual Configuring Q.931 parameters, Mode q931

SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 19 • ISDN configuration

command description below refers to the configuration mode in which Q.931 can be enabled by setting the encapsulation to ‘q931’. This configuration mode is called here ‘base-mode’ but it is only an alias for the real mode. Once encapsulation q931 has been configured, the Q.931 configuration mode can be entered.

Mode: base-mode

Step	Command	Purpose
1	[name](base-mode)]#[no] encapsulation	Enables/Disables Q.931
	q931
2	[name](base-mode)]#q931	Enter the Q.931 configuration mode

Configuring Q.931 parameters

This chapter provides an overview of the Q.931 configuration parameters, their syntax and possible restric- tions. In case of ISDN, Q.931 settings apply to both BRI and PRI ports. They are defined in the q931 mode. To use Q931, the lower layer encapsulation must be set to q931.

Note QSIG is an ISDN based protocol for signaling between nodes of a Private Integrated Services Network. The formal name of the signaling system by ISO / IEC is PSS1. Both names will co-exist and QSIG will continue to be used as the marketing name.

Mode: q931

Step

Command		Purpose
node(q931)[slot/port]#protocol dss1	Specify the ISDN layer 3 protocol (Default:
or	BRI: dss1, E1: dss1, T1: ni2)
node(q931)[slot/port]#protocol pss1	The ISDN layer 3 is the network signaling
or	protocol. SmartWare ISDN supports:
node(q931)[slot/port]#protocol ni2	•	Euro-ISDN (E-DSS1)
or	•	Q.SIG (PSS1)
node(q931)[slot/port]#protocol ntt	•	National ISDN (NI2)
or	• Nippon Telecom NTT for BRI
node(q931)[slot/port]#protocol dms-
	•	Nortel Dms-100 for T1
100
	The layer 3 signaling must correspond to the
	connected ISDN equipment or network.
