ATM Links
MTP_LINK <link_id> <linkset_id> <link_ref> <slc> <board_id> <blink> <atm_stream> <vpi-vci> <flags> ATM

Common Parameters
The MTP_LINK command includes the following parameters:
<link_id>
The unique logical identity of the link. It must be in the range 0 to one less than the total number of
signaling links supported.
<linkset_id>
The logical identity of the linkset to which the link belongs. The linkset must already have been
configured using the MTP_LINKSET command.
<link_ref>
The logical identity within the linkset of the signaling link. It should be in the range 0 to one less than the
number of links in the linkset.
<slc>
The signaling link code for the signaling link. This must be unique within the linkset and is typically the
same as <link_ref>. The valid range is 0 to 15.
<flags>
A 32-bit value containing additional run-time options. The bit significance is as follows:
Note: If the <data_rate> is set to "ATM", only bits 0 to 2 are significant.
Bit 0 is set to 1 to force the use of the emergency proving period during link alignment or 0 to use
the appropriate proving period according to the MTP3 recommendations.
Bit 1 is set to 1 to cause a signaling link test (in accordance with ITU-T Q.707 / ANSI T1.111.7) to be
carried out before a link is put into service, or 0 if a test is not required.
Bit 2 is set to 1 to cause a signaling link test (in accordance with ITU-T Q.707 / ANSI T1.111.7) to be
carried out every 30 seconds. This bit is ignored unless bit 1 is set to 1.
Bit 8 is used to select the MTP2 error correction mode. It is set to 1 to select PCR (Preventive Cyclic
Retransmission) operation or 0 for the Basic Method of Error Correction.
Bits 10 and 11 together select the appropriate operating bit rate for the link. The table below
specifies the appropriate values for 48, 56, or 64 kbits/s.
Bit 10 Bit 11 Data Rate
0 0 64 kbits/s
0 1 48 kbits/s
1 0 56 kbits/s
11Reserved
Note: For framed HSL operation, these bits select the bit rate for
each slot of the HSL link.
