Configuring WAN Access
Configuring T1 lines
channel is used only if the primary line goes down or if it receives a signal commanding a
change to the other D channel.
Note: On a MAX 6000 unit, both lines must be connected to the same slot. Also note that if
you were to configure both slots for NFAS signaling, you would have to assign different ID
numbers to the lines in the second slot.
To configure two T1 lines for NFAS, proceed as follows:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
If the profile you have configured is not the active profile, activate it as described in
"Activating a profile" on page 2-7.
Example of NFAS configuration
Following is a sample configuration of two T1 lines for NFAS signaling. (Only the relevant
parameters are shown.)
NET/T1
Line Config
3-16
Open a Net/T1 > Line Config > Line Config profile and set both lines to Trunk:
Net/T1
Line Config
Line Config profile
Name=
1st Line=Trunk
2nd Line=Trunk
Open the Line 1 subprofile and set the signaling mode to NFAS:
Line 1...
Sig Mode=ISDN_NFAS
Keep the default NFAS ID.
NFAS ID num=1
Configure a channel as the primary NFAS D channel. For example:
Ch 24=NFAS-Prime
Close the Line 1 subprofile.
Open the Line 2 subprofile and set the signaling mode to NFAS:
Line 2...
Sig Mode=ISDN_NFAS
Keep the default NFAS ID:
NFAS ID num=2
Configure channel 24 as the secondary NFAS D channel:
Ch 24=NFAS-Second
Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
NFASig
Name=NFASig
1st Line=Trunk
2nd Line=Disabled
Line 1...
Sig Mode=ISDN_NFAS
Framing Mode=D4
