5.6.6 Provision New Customer/Port for NTE8 (DS1/E1 Form)
Selecting a non-provisioned port that is a DS1/E1 port and then clicking Provision New Customer/Port invokes the Provision
New NTE-DS1 Port form, as shown in Figure 5-123. This form includes the most important attributes for the port to ensure quality
subscriber service. Table 5-29 lists these attributes.
Note: To provision the NTE8 efficiently, use this Provisioning Dialog; this will prevent errors that can occur when changing certain
attributes on the DS1 Port Management form.
