SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 48 • PSTN profile configuration

Introduction

This chapter gives an overview of PSTN profiles, and describes how they are used and the tasks involved in PSTN profile configuration.

A PSTN profile is a container for all datapath-related settings on PSTN connections. It can be assigned to PSTN interfaces in context CS. If no profile is specified in a particular interface, the profile default is used. The settings apply to all calls crossing the interface. Figure 8 illustrates the relationship between PSTN profiles and CS interfaces. The following components are configurable:

•Echo canceller

•Output gain

PSTN profile configuration task list

The following tasks describe components that can be configured through the PSTN profile.

•Creating a PSTN profile

•Configuring the echo canceller (see page 599)

•Configuring output gain (see page 599)

If a PSTN profile is modified, the saved modification is applied to all open calls and is valid for all future calls on the interface using this PSTN profile.

Creating a PSTN profile

Before configuring voice parameters, a PSTN profile must be created. Each PSTN profile has a name that can be any arbitrary string of not more than 25 characters. When you create the PSTN profile, the PSTN profile configuration mode appears so you can configure PSTN components.

Note The PSTN profile named default always exists in the system. It is used by all interface components if there is no other PSTN profile available. If PSTN parameters are the same throughout all interfaces, you can simply change the profile default instead of creating a new profile.
