To configure the OC3/STM-1 port:
The PathBuilder S310 switch does not support OC3/STM-1; the OC3/STM-1 port is
disabled on that device.
1 From the Configuration Management menu, shown in Figure 59, select
[1] Manage Card to open the List Card menu, shown in Figure 60.
2 From the List Card menu, select [4] OC3 UNI to open the SONET UNI
Configuration menu, shown in Figure 83. This menu displays the current
configuration for the OC3/STM-1 port and provides options that allow you to
change certain settings.

3 Set the following parameters as desired:
Admin. Status — Administrative status: Out of Service or In Service.
Sonet Interface Mode — The SONET interface supports two modes: OC3 and
STM-1. Choose the mode used at your location. OC3 is used most often in the
United States, while STM-1 is common in other countries.
ATM Payload Scramble — Enables (yes) or disables (no) payload scrambling for
the OC3/STM-1 port. The default is disabled (no). Payload scrambling is a
technique used to avoid certain transmission equipment behaviors (for example,
erroneous alarm conditions) that are caused by sensitivity to certain bit patterns in
the ATM payload. When you set payload scrambling to yes, the ATM Payload
Scramble scrambles the 48 byte payload in outgoing cells in a defined manner and
unscrambles the payload in incoming cells. The payload scramble settings must
match at the two ends of the OC3/SDH trunk.
