D-channel maintenance

If the IP trunk card has D-channel hardware, the tree on the left side of the
window contains the D-channel. click the D-channel and the D-channel
Maintenance window appears. This window allows D-channel maintenance
operations to be performed. The commands are sent to the card through
SNMP.

The menu items are not context-sensitive. For example, it is possible to
try to enable an enabled D-channel.

Transmit configuration data

TM 3.1 converts the IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node and IP trunk card
configuration data to text files and transmits the files to the IP trunk cards
using FTP. The text files are as follows:

Node properties: BOOTP.1 (only transmitted to the Active Leader)

Dialing plan: DPTABLE.1 (transmitted to every card)

Card properties: CONFIG1.INI (transmitted to every card)

BOOTP.1 is downloaded to the Leader card and copied to the Backup
Leader. All other IP trunk cards in the node use BOOTP.1 to retrieve their
bootup data from this table. TM 3.1 downloads the CONFIG1.INI file to each
IP trunk card. It also downloads the DPTABLE.1 file to each IP trunk card.

The ITG Main window displays the synchronization status of each of these
fields. Changes to the first two tabs (General and Card Configuration)
in the Node Properties sheet affect the Node Synchronization Status.
Changes to the other tabs (DSP Profile, SNMP Trap/Routing table IPs,
Accounting Server, and Security) in the Node Properties sheet affect the
Card Synchronization Status. These changes must be transmitted to each
card in the node.

Select the "Configuration" pull-down menu in the Main ITG window. From
this menu, select menu Synchronize > Transmit. The ITG Transmit
Options window appears (see

Figure 140 "ITG Transmit Options window"

. This window allows enables multiple files to be transmitted to
