Managing T1 and E1 Ports
T1 and E1 ports are supported on a variety of switching modules. In the Omni Switch/Router,
T1 and E1 are used as standard WAN access portss. The following switching modules contain
T1 or E1 ports:
• WSX-FT1/E1
Ports on these modules share a common set on of physical level attributes and a common set
of software configuration commands.
T1/E1
configuration options include frame format, line
coding, and Facility Datalink Protocol.
T1/E1
ports can store up to 24 hours of performance
statistics for local and remote ports. These software commands do not configure time slots.
Hardware descriptions of the WSX-FT1/E1 can be found in Chapter 3, “Omni Switch/Router
Switching Modules.”
This chapter is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of
T1/E1
digital
services. The second part describes the configuration of physical T1 and E1 ports; this second
part starts with the section, The T1/E1 Menu on page 33-3.
