IMUX-56/64 MODULE OVERVIEW

CONFIGURING AN ENDPOINT TO USE BONDING

61200262L1-1A
Introduction
The IMUX-56/64 Module combines with other ATLAS components to pro-
vide a flexible disaster recovery system in the ATLAS Integrated Access Sys-
tem. The IMUX-56/64 Module, which occupies a single slot in the ATLAS
chassis, supports multiple, independent BONDING sessions with each ses-
sion having the potential to use a different bandwidth. The IMUX-56/64
Module can use either 56Kbps or 64Kbps data lines (i.e., channels) for any
given BONDING session. The IMUX-56/64 Module can establish a BOND-
ING session using as few as 2 or as many as 32 channels. Figure 1-1 shows
an example application of the IMUX-56/64 Module.

How an endpoint is configured to use BONDING is unique to each type of
endpoint. Typically, it will be a reference to the number of DS0s, with men-
tion of BONDING in the help line. See the ATLAS 800 or 800
for more information on endpoint configuration. Information may also be
