Configuring the FT1-B&O call
While FT1 calls use nailed channels, FT1-AIM and FT1-B&O calls can combine switched
channels with nailed channels. For FT1-B&O calls, you must also set the B&O Restore
parameter. This parameter specifies automatic backup and overflow protection of nailed-up
circuits. It actually specifies how many seconds the MAX waits before restoring a nailed-up
channel to an FT1-B&O call.
Note: For FT1-AIM or FT1-B&O calls, you must set the Idle and Dial parameters in the Port
Config profile at both the local end and the remote end of the call. For the MAX unit to
connect the switched channels when you turn it on, set Idle to Call and Dial to Terminal. For
the unit to connect the switched channels when the host equipment at both ends activates DTR,
set Idle to None and Dial to DTR. In this latter configuration, the hosts at both ends of the
connection must activate DTR to make the unit connect the switched channels.

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 WAN
connections" on page 3-54.
Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
