Defining DS0 mappings using the command line interface (CLI) 71
Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 5 • DS0 Mapping
Note
You must define the same number of time slots for each side of the con-
nection. In other words, the number of time slots defined for Slots A
must be the same as the number of time slots defined for Slots B.
To configure the time slots parameter, enter a text string specifying which time slot numbers will be used for
the channel. You must enter a text string that comprises the following elements:
• Numerals—Use numerals (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) to represent time slot numbers
• Comma—Use the comma (,) to separate non-contiguous timeslots. For example, the string 1,7,15 repre-
sents three timeslots numbered 1, 7 and 15.
Note
You can also use the comma to separate contiguous time slots. How-
ever, since it is inefficient and may be confusing, doing so is not rec-
ommended.
• Dash (-)—Use the dash (-) to represent a series of contiguous timeslots. For example, the string 1-31 repre-
sents all timeslots between 1 and 31 inclusive (that is, time slot 1, time slot 31 and all time slots
in between).
Slot Numbering Examples
For example, to define a channel comprising timeslots 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 15, either of the following entries
would be valid:
• 1,2,5,6,7,15
• 1,2,5-7,15
Although the first string above is valid syntax, the second string is easier to read, and more clearly shows what is
going on. The following strings are also valid syntax:
• 1-2,5,6,7,15
• 1-2,5,6-7,15
• 1-2,5-6,7,15
While the entries above would work, they are harder to grasp quickly than the first two examples. Beyond the
cluttered appearance of these last three strings, they tend to obscure the part of reality they represent: the con-
tiguous block of timeslots from 5-7.
CLI Example #1
To define a DS0 mapping between a T1 line, (WAN) Port 1, timeslots 1–24, and a G.SHDSL modem, Port 3
(modem #3), timeslots 1, 2, type the following text:
t1-e1:1:1-24/G.SHDSL:3:1-24
CLI Example #2
To define a mapping between a T1 line, (WAN) Port 2, timeslots 4–6, and another T1 line, (WAN) Port 3,
timeslots 8–10, type the following text:
t1-e1:2:4-6/t1-e1:3:8-10
