Programming Procedures - AT&T MERLIN LEGEND Release 3.1 System Programming Manual

Programming Procedures

Programming Procedures
The programming procedures provide step-by-step instructions for
programming the communications system. This section details how to make the
best use of the programming procedures.
Procedure Organization
The programming procedures in Chapter 3, "Common Administrative
Procedures" and Chapter 4, "Programming Procedures," are organized into
logical groups. The programming procedures associated with a specific aspect
of the system are grouped together under one heading. For example, to assign
network services for PRI, you would go to the section titled "PRI" and then locate
the network services procedure. For quick reference, see "System Programming
Hierarchy" for a list of procedures, based on the menu hierarchy in Appendix B,
that traces the menu path for a specific function.
