Creating Channel Groups; Adding Channels - Alcatel Speed Touch 591s Technical User's Manual

12.2

Creating channel groups

Channel groups can be created for structured T1 and E1 CE ports. Channel groups
allow several channels to be grouped together so that they function as a single
connection endpoint.
Procedure 12-1 Creating a channel group
CONFIG — OBJECT — CHANNELGROUP — <endpoint>
where endpoint is U;group, and group is a channel group identifier—CG1 to CG24 for a
T1 port and CG1 to CG31 for an E1 port

Adding channels

Channels can be added to channel groups. Table 12-1 lists the channel information
displayed for a group.

The channels in the channel group can be contiguous or noncontiguous; however, the
channels must maintain their end-to-end time ordering; see Alcatel 7350 ASAM
Technical Practices for details.
A channel can be assigned only to one channel group. For channel groups configured
for CAS, timeslots 0 and 16 are reserved for signaling and cannot be added to a
channel group. For E1 CE channel groups configured for BASIC, timeslot 0 is
reserved for signaling and cannot be added to a channel group.
