Note:

The software should have already been installed and you need the system prompt before
proceeding with these steps.

Using the detailed instructions for these steps found in the

Simple Remote Bridging

chapter,

complete the following configuration steps for SITE1.

Start the CFGEDIT program

Select physical resources
Select to add a resource

Select Switch type to be NI-1

Select to add a line

Enter the line name
Select slot and port numbers
Select line interface type of “Point-to-Point”
Add Data Links (Data Link explanation follows)

Choose Auto TEI Negotiation
Enter Service Profile ID (SPID) Value
Enter Directory Number for Data Link
Enter Maximum Number of Digits to Verify

Repeat “Add Data Links” for second Data Link
Repeat “Select to add a line” for each additional line

Data links are handled differently on a NI-1 switch. Some BRI lines have only one phone number
(for the Data Link), but can handle two calls (one for each bearer channel). For NI-1 switches, the
BRI line has two phone numbers (one for each bearer channel), and each phone number has its own
SPID. You must enter the number of digits to verify, so that when the system receives a phone call
it can determine on which bearer to accept the phone call. Refer to the

System Details worksheet

for

the SPIDs, directory numbers, and the number of digits to verify.

The sections below provide instructions for completing the remaining configuration steps for
SITE1.
