ACS-FRS Card User Screens and Settings

FRS Card

STATE

The State setting determines whether the port is active or inactive. Set the State field to stdby (standby) for ports you are not using or have not yet configured. Or, set it to actv (active) for ports that are ready for use.

WAN/SRV

The WAN setting identifies the WAN link assigned to this port. You do not have to assign all ports on the same card to the same WAN link. You also don’t have to assign card ports to contiguous time slots of a WAN link. The default value is none.

TS

The Time Slot setting identifies the time slots on the WAN link when wan is selected in the previous setting. The ACS-FRS card can use many (up to 24 T1 or 31 E1) time slots on a single WAN port, in order to create a super-rate circuit for an individual FRS port. One or all time slots of a T1 or E1 link can be assembled for use by the FRS port, according to the speed requirements of the DTE.

You can assign time slots by pressing <Enter> and using the space bar to select and deselect the required number of time slots. These assignments do not have to be contiguous.

RATE

The Rate setting allows you to adjust the speed of the circuit according to the application requirements. The only speed available for ports C1to C4 is 64k (64 kbps). However, ports 1 to 64 can be set to either 56k or 64k.

PORT TYPE

The Port Type identifies the type of interface expected for this port. The selections are none, u-dce(User-to Network Interface), nni (Network to Network Interface), u-dte(User-to Terminal Equipment), and frad (Frame Relay Assembler/Dissembler).

LMI

The Local Management Interface setting allows you to select the protocol to be used by this port. The options are none, ansi (ANSI T1.617 Annex D), ccitt (ITU Q.933 Annex A), and lmi (Group of Four specification).
