Configure card properties

Procedure 19 "Configuring the IP trunk card" (page 239)

explains how

to configure the IP trunk card roles, IP addresses, TN, card density and
D-Channel settings.

Each IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node requires a Leader 0 card and one
DCHIP card (which can be Leader 0) and can have a Leader 1 card, one or
more Follower cards, and additional DCHIP cards (which can be Leader 1
or Follower cards). Either Leader 0 or Leader 1 can have the Active Leader
status. On system power-up, Leader 0 normally functions as the Active
Leader and Leader 1 as the Backup Leader.

At other times, the Leader card functions can reverse with Leader 1 working
as the Active Leader and Leader 0 working as the Backup Leader.
