N ETWORK T ERM This menu allows the user to define option parameters for ports which ter-
minate a connection from the Network (PSTN).
S LOT /S VC Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Selects the ATLAS 550 slot that terminates a Network connection.
P ORT /PEP Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Selects the ATLAS 550 port that terminates a Network connection.
S IG Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Defines the type of signaling being used for this connection (endpoint).
Select
RBS for a T1 using Robbed Bit Signaling or PRI for a Primary Rate
ISDN interface. This selection is only necessary if a T1/PRI is selected as the
S LOT /P ORT type.
O UT #A CCEPT Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Defines the parameters for the outgoing calls that ATLAS 550 sends to the
Network.
In applications where two ATLAS 550 units are used in a point-to-
point configuration, a port in the ATLAS 550 at one end would act
as the Network (User termination), while the ATLAS 550 at the
opposite end would be terminating a “Network” connection
(Network Termination).
There may be more than one “endpoint” associated with a particular
port. If a T1 is connected to the PSTN, some DS0s may be used for
long distance, while others are used for local calls. These would
constitute two “endpoints” (trunks) over a single physical port.
One HDLC resource is used by each PRI or each Packet Endpoint.
