Setting the T1 Timeslot Configuration Table
The T1 Timeslot Configuration Table allows you to configure how your
MicroMMAC utilizes the T1 line. The configuration table consists of 24
Timeslots, which appear as 01-08, 09-16, and 17-24. You must assign
each Timeslot an
Interface number (03-26, or 00 if the Timeslot is not
used). When you lease an entire T1 line, you can use all 24 Timeslots (the
full T1 bandwidth). If you lease only a fraction of the T1, the Telco carrier
will tell you which Timeslots to use.
You can utilize Timeslots any way you choose. For example, if your
MicroMMAC has access to a full T1 (24 Timeslots), and you want to
communicate with two other MicroMMACs, your configuration could
look like figure 3-2.
