reserved for signaling. Each channel can be either switched or nailed. You can assign a
switched channel to a slot/port combination. To make a nailed channel available to a
Connection or call profile, you assign the channel to a group. You can also assign channels to
hunt groups.
Each E1 line supports 32 channels, of which one is used for framing. Also, the E1 line supports
a PRI signalling, you can use an additional channel for signalling. The Ch N parameters are
repeated for each channel in the line:

Associating a channel with a slot/port in the MAX unit

With the Ch N Slot and Ch N Prt/Grp parameters, you can assign a switched channel to a slot or
slot/port combination for a digital modem, AIM port, or Ethernet network. This configuration
affects both inbound call routing and outbound calls. In effect, it reserves the channel for calls
to and from the specified slot or port. (For details, see "Configuring call routing" on
page 3-58.)
Assigning nailed channels to groups
If the channel is nailed, Ch N Prt/Grp specifies a group number. To make use of this nailed
connection, a Connection or call profile references the group number.
You can assign trunk-group numbers 4–9 to channels to make them available for outbound
calls. (For details, see "Routing outbound calls" on page 3-68.)
Assigning channels to hunt groups
You can assign a hunt-group number (a telephone number) associated with the E1 line in a
specific Line N profile. Assign this value to the Hunt-N # parameter.
