Desired Function (channelfunction)
This variable defines how the connection is made to each of the 24 or 30 T1/E1 time slots.
• off(0)—Do not signal on this channel in response to the central office. The access server will generate an
idle signal.
• dialin(1)—Used for dial-in.
• dialout(2)—used for dial-out. When dialing out of the server, the first available channel set to dialout will be used
(see
figure 108 ). If no dialout channels are available, the server will search for the next available dialin channel.
