Number Assignment (models without phone ports)
If your DIVA T/A is equipped with phone ports, see “Number Assignment (models with phone ports)”
on page 44 .
Within the Number Assignment group box, you can assign a previously configured number
or numbers to your data ports for all your data connections. If you select a specific number
for your data connections, you can then monitor the charges for your data calls. It is also
helpful if your ISDN Service Provider offers a discount on all calls made to a favorite number.
Protocol Options (models with phone ports)
Parameter Description
Select a previously
configured
number This option allows you to select from the numbers you previously configured.
You can select either one number or both numbers and assign them to your
data ports. For example, if you select the first number that you configured, all
data calls will use that number.
Parameter Description
Dynamic
Bandwidth
Allocation (DBA) This option is visible only if your DIVA T/A is equipped with phone ports and if
the protocol is set to ‘MultiLink PPP‘, ‘MultiLink PPP with BACP‘, or ‘MultiLink
with AODI‘.
Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) activates the DIVA T/A’s Phone Line
control for Multilink PPP connections. When activated, this function enables you
to initiate or receive telephone calls on your regular (non-ISDN) telephone
without interrupting your Multilink PPP connection.
The DBA function releases one B-channel, as required for phone calls, without
interrupting the data link. When the call is over, DBA automatically
re-establishes the Multilink PPP session by reconnecting the second B-channel,
if the throughput requires it.
