software. Make sure that your call-routing configuration accommodates calls destined for the
local Ethernet network. (For details, see “Configuring inbound calls” on page 3-59 and
“Configuring outbound calls” on page 3-69.)
An AIM port requires three levels of configuration:
• Configure the AIM port itself
• Configure the interface to the codec
• Configure the WAN connections between serial hosts
The remainder of this chapter describes parameters, procedures and examples for configuring
the inverse-multiplexing port, the Host interface to the codec, inverse-multiplexing WAN
connections, bandwidth WAN connections, an AIM call, a FT1-B&O call, a single-channel call
and a dual-port call.
Configuring the inverse-multiplexing port
The Port Config profiles contain protocol and routing parameters for the port itself. To
configure an inverse-multiplex port, open Host/AIM6 (or Host/Dual) > PortN Menu > Port
Config and set the following parameters:
Parameter Specifies
Port Name Descriptive name for the port profile. (This parameter is optional.
Functionality is not affected if you do not enter a value.)
Dial Plan Whether a card uses trunk groups or the extended dial plan to send and
receive calls. (For details about dial plans, see “Configuring outbound
calls” on page 3-69.)
Ans N# A telephone number for call routing purposes. Calls received on the
specified number are routed to the port controlled by this profile.
Idle Action that the MAX takes on the port when you turn on the power or
when no call is active. With the None setting, the port waits for you to
establish the call. With the Call setting, the port automatically
establishes an outbound call when you turn on the power or when a
call is active.
Dial How a call originates at the port, whether it be by dialing through the
MAX unit’s user interface, or by using one of three dialing protocols
(RS-366, V.25 bis, or X.21) to dial from the AIM port.
Answer The protocol the port associated with this profile uses when answering
calls.
Clear Protocol that applies when the port receives a request to clear a call.
(With the Terminal setting, the MAX does not respond to control-line
requests to clear calls.)
Term Timing Whether the MAX uses the Terminal Timing signal from the codec to
clock data it receives from the codec. Terminal Timing is a clock
signal specified for the V.35, X.21, and RS-449 serial interfaces. It
compensates for the phase difference between Send Data and Send
Timing.
