type is 6341, 6342, 6341R2, or 6342R2 (R2 indicates Release 2 or greater). Use Ctrl-v for

(Default = EtherHDLC). Use Ctrl-v for a pop-up menu with available selections. Choose
from the following:
– EtherHDLC for IP packet applications
– FUNI/MPOA for 8344 cards with a 6341R2 or 6342R2 endpoint only
NOTE: If you select FUNI/MPOA, the endpoint must be configured for routing only,
otherwise the line will fail to come up and a SYSLOG message will be generated.
Fixed Speed

Thresholds for Trap Messages:
Margin Threshold
– Sends a trap message if the margin on either end falls below the
startup margin by the selected value. Enter a value for the margin threshold trap
(–7 dB to +14 dB, or D to Disable). (Default = +3)
Example: With a startup margin of +3 dB and a threshold offset of +3 dB, the Low
Margin Trap will be sent if the margin falls below 0 dB.

– Sends a trap message if the number of DSL link down events in
15 minutes exceeds the selected value. Enter a value for the Link Down Count Trap
(0 to 1000, or D to Disable). (Default = 0)
NOTE: If you have made changes to this screen, exit the screen, then save the
changes. The changes are then activated. You can only save changes on one port at a
time.
