5.6.7 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 5-119. This form includes the most important attributes for the port to ensure quality sub-
scriber 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.

NTE8. Refer to 6.17.
