Transition Networks
2. Logical Link Configuration
The Logical Link is the data connection between the two devices which will carry the 64K traffic
across the packet network. The Contra Converter's Logical Link must be configured with the remote
Converter's IP address in order for the traffic to be sent there. The number of TDM frames per
packet and Jitter Buffer Length can also be configured here.
Via the Web GUI, the Logical Link settings can be found in Configuration > CES > Link > Settings
Configure Link 1 with a Name, single Remote IP (the IP Address of the remote Contra Converter),
then click Save at the bottom of the page.
Note that the Frames per Packet and Jitter Buffer Length settings both default to 1, which gives the
absolute minimum latency across the link. These settings can be changed if required in order to
decrease bandwidth overheads.
If using the CLI, the command to enable the Logical Link is:
CES link setup remote 1 both [<remoteip>]
The <remoteip> element should be the IP address of the remote Contra Converter, or its publicly
visible gateway address. A name for the Link can optionally be set using this command:
CES link setup name 1 [<name>]
When the device is connected to two or more remote Contra Converters in a
application, a second Logical Link can be added here in the same way. The IP Addresses of the
destination remote Contra Converter should be configured on the relevant Link.
