Phone

The local telephone number (Phone) feature stores the
local DBM's telephone number if a DBM is installed.
Refer to Table 4-6 to see all available telephone
number characters.

Network Address

The network address (Addr) is the network address of
the local DSU. It is only available from the Local branch.
The DSU's network address is a number in the range of

automatically acquires an address equal to the DSU's
plus 1.
