NET N Config

The NET N CONFIG MENU allows you to change various configurable items common to all E1 network ports. The menu is shown below.

For each item on this menu, pressing Enter causes the configurable item to start flashing. Pressing the up arrow and DOWN ARROW buttons changes the value of the flashing item. Pressing Enter again terminates the configuration of that item. Pressing Exit aborts the operation without making the change. Each of the Configurable items are described in detail in “Network Configuration” on page 4-25of this User Manual.

NETWORK THRESHOLDS

This Menu allows you to enable/disable the automatic FALLBACK feature and set the various Network Alarm Thresholds that will cause the E1 lines to automatically be taken out of service.

Three levels of thresholds can be turned On or Off, and values set through this menu: CON (CONSECUTIVE), 15-minute, and 24-hour. Thresholds can be set for the number of Consecutive seconds (1-100) containing errors, for the number of seconds containing errors in a 15-minute interval (1-900), and for the number of 15-minute intervals containing errors in a 24-hour period (1-96).

You can set the threshold value for Minor (MI) and Major (MJ) alarms, where exceeding the Minor alarm threshold will generate an alarm report and the exceeding a Major alarm threshold will actually cause an E1 line to be automatically taken out of service.
