Call Password and Flag Idle parameters
A call profile includes a Call Password and a Flag Idle parameter. The Call Password
parameter specifies the password for outgoing AIM and BONDING calls. The Flag Idle
parameter specifies the bit pattern that a dynamic call to an AIM port uses as the idle indicator.
Select the Yes setting to specify the flag pattern or the No setting to specify the mark pattern.
Both patterns include enough 1 bits to maintain clock synchronization with the remote unit.
Both ends must use the same pattern. Receipt of the specified pattern indicates to the local unit
that the remote unit is not sending data.
For detailed information about each parameter, see the MAX Reference.

Configuring an AIM call

To configure an AIM call that uses dynamic bandwidth allocation to manage the call
dynamically:

Specifies
The time, in seconds, for which the ALU must fall below the value
specified for the (Host/AIM6 (Host/Dual), PortN Menu > Directory >
Call profile > Target Util parameter before the unit subtracts
bandwidth.
The submenu parameters for dividing each AIM call are:
• Activ—Specifies a call management time period for an AIM call.
• Beg Time— Specifies the start-time of a dynamic AIM call's time
period.
• Min Ch Cnt—Specifies the minimum number of channels that can
be established for a multilink call.
• MAX Ch Cnt—Specifies the maximum number of channels that
can be allocated to a multilink connection.
• Target Util—Specifies a percentage of line utilization to use as a
threshold for determining when to add or subtract bandwidth.
Open a Host/AIM6 (Host/Dual) > PortN Menu > Directory > call profile.
Set the Dial # to specify the remote device, and set Call Type to AIM.
Set Call Mgm to Dynamic.
Set Base Ch Count to specify the base number of channels and set Inc Ch Count and Dec
Ch Count to specify the number of channels to be added or subtracted, respectively, when
bandwidth requirements change.
Set the bandwidth parameters, as described in "Configuring bandwidth parameters" on
page 3-53.
Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
