TS

The TS (timeslot) setting identifies the timeslot on the WAN link that carries this D channel. Even though the system allows values that range from 1-24for T1 links and 1-31for E1 links, in almost all cases, TS 24 will be used for T1 applications and TS 16 will be used for E1 applications (when available).

RATE

The Rate parameter allows users to choose the rate of the D channel. Even though the equipment allows values of 56k and 64k, in almost all cases, the rate of 64k will be used.

SIDE

The options for this parameter are user (user side) and net (network side). See discussion earlier in this chapter that describes which side to choose.

SW. TYPE

The Switch Type is selected from the possible central office equipment types to which the system is connected. The choices are fjtsu (Fujitsu), att_4 (AT&T #4ESS), att_5 (AT&T #5ESS® ), dms_1 (DMS-100®), dms_2 (DMS-200®) ni_2 (National ISDN II), dpnss (Digital Private Network Signaling System), dass2 (Digital Access Signaling System #2), net_5 (European ISDN), and mcl.

DATA INV

The Data Inversion option allows users to select whether or not the HDLC (High level Data Link Control) will invert the data bits when B8ZS format is not available. In almost all cases, DATA INV should be set to no.
