Configuring CBR Circuits for DBA
This section provides guidelines for configuring CBR circuits for various types of
dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA)—both for CAS (channel associated signaling)
and CCS (common channel signaling applications). Table 25 summarizes the key
CBR port and virtual circuit parameters for these types of applications. For details
about how DBA works, see "DS0 Signaling and Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation" in
Appendix B.

Checking the Data Bytes to Determine a DBA Bits Mask Setting CCS
monitors for voice activity. In most cases the default DBA Bits Mask (127) works,
but if you are having a problem with a CCS circuit, you can set the DBA Bits Mask
to monitor any bits. The unit will monitor the virtual circuit, and you can use the
activity reported on the channel (reported under CBR ATM statistics as Data Bytes
To) to determine the proper DBA Bits Mask. For details about checking the data
bytes, see "CBR ATM Statistics" in Chapter 5.
