Configuring Async Ports 12-17
Redirect on Busy
will redirect calls (if
Y
) according to the Redirection Addresses if the primary sub-
scriber device is busy.
Redirect on Out of Order
will redirects calls (if
Y
) according to the Redirection Addresses if the primary sub-
scriber device is out of order.
Connection Priority
prioritizes intra-nodal traffic; the higher the number, the higher the priority. (This pri-
ority has no effect on traffic exiting a node.)
Priorities are configured on all logical interfaces that use a physical frame relay port.
The device processor in the node uses these priorities to help determine the order in
which it will process protocols.
When configuring priorities, be careful to consider the types of
traffic being routed on other connections in the node.
1st, 2nd,etc. Path Configured
includes or excludes the associated port as a routing path to the subscriber device. At
least one path must be specified.
Port
identifies the port(s) that make up the routing path(s).
Redirection Address 0,1,etc.
are up to five subscribers that will be called according to the specified redirection
option.
Configuring Abbreviated Addresses
The Abbreviated Address operation allows you to assign a short name or mnemonic
to be used in place of the subscriber ID when making X.25 calls from a terminal con-
nected to a SmartSwitch 1800 async PAD port.
To display a list of existing abbreviated addresses and their associated subscriber IDs,
press
[C]
at the Connections and Routing Paths Configuration Menu (or
[A], [D], [C]
from the Main Menu).
To add or change an abbreviated address, press
[D]
at the Connections and Routing
Paths Configuration Menu. When prompted, enter the address you want to use (up to
10 alphanumeric characters).
The address will be displayed; if it is an existing address, the associated subscriber ID
will also be displayed, along with the message
Subscriber ID defined
(or
Subscriber ID
undefined
if the ID is not in the database).
