4 CONFIGURATION
The Universal Trunk requires BNS Control Computer administration as well as module
administration. Control Computer administration consists of the typical commands required for
configuring trunk modules in the BNS Control Computer Node database. Module administration
defines the type of trunk the UTM will mimic and insures proper connectivity to other BNS
network components.
Control Computer administration is typically accomplished through StarKeeper  II NMS or a
Node’s local console interface. Information for the type of trunk the UTM will mimic is added to
the Node database and then manipulated and checked, using the enter, change, delete, and
verify trunk commands.
Control Computer configuration of the UTM is always the same as that of the trunk module it is
required to mimic. Since the UTM appears to the BNS Control Computer as whatever trunk it is
defined, no BNS Controller changes are necessary.
Module administration is available through the LAN or Console interface on the UTM DTK41 or
CEY5 I/O board. Information is added to the UTM firmware database and then manipulated and
checked using the verify command that is part of the module's command set.

EPLACMENT
When the UTM is used to replace one side of an existing BNS trunk pair, follow the steps below.
(Examples for all configuration options in back)
1. Remove Trunk and I/O board to be replaced.
2. Physically insert the DTK41 or CEY5 I/O Board (Installation Section).
3. Physically insert and activate the UTM (set faceplate rocker switch to Enabl).
4. From the UTM console (NOT the Controller Console) configure the UTM (Module Command
Section).
Sample Command lines to specify the trunk the UTM will mimic:
Replacing a Trunk-PQ Trunk type=HDLC phy=V35 modtype=TRKT1
Replacing a SWT Trunk type=HDLC phy=V35 modtype=SWT
Replacing a SAMSL Trunk type=HDLC phy=232 modtype=SAMSL
Replacing a TRK64 Trunk type=HDLC phy=V35 modtype=TRK64
5. Restore the UTM board to service from the module and node consoles.
