ToS Switching
Configuration
The ToS switching feature can be configured within the SLM-5650A modem
using either the CLI or the Web user interface. For simplicity, the Web interface
(figure B-5) will be presented in this example.
Figure B-5 Remote ToS Switching menu
The remote ToS switching is optioned by selecting 'Enable' or 'Disable'. In addi-
tion to the enable/disable, the menu provides the ability to create a list of ToS
Rules for which a switch will be initiated. In defining these fields, certain char-
acteristics are created depicting what types of switch service connections are
established. These fields are described in table B-2.
Note: Load switching by the VMS is not affected by enabling ToS detection.
