11.5 Using Parameter Tables
The gateway uses parameter tables to group related parameters of specific entities and
manage them together. These tables, similar to regular parameters, can be configured via
the ini file, Embedded Web Server, SNMP, etc.
Tables are composed of lines and columns. Columns represent parameters’ types. Lines
represent specific entities. The instances in each line are called line attributes. Lines in
table may represent (for example) a trunk, an NFS file system, list of timers for a given
application, etc.
Table
11-1 and Table 11-2 below provide useful examples for reference.
Table 11-1: Example of Parameter Table - Remote Management Connections

Table 11-2: Example of Parameter Table - Port-to-Port Connections
Index Fields:
1. Source Ports
2. Destination IP
3. Destination Port
Source Port Destination IP Destination Port Connection Name Application Type
2020 10.4.1.50 2020 ATM_TEST_EQ LAB_EQ
2314 212.199.201.20 4050 ATM_ITROP_LOOP LAB_EQ
6010 10.3.3.41 6010 REMOTE_MGMT MGMT
Note: Table 11-1 and Table 11-2 are provided as examples for the purpose of
illustration only and are not actually implemented in the gateway.
11.5.1 Table Indices
Each line in a table must be unique. Therefore, each table defines one or more Index
fields. The combination of the Index fields determines the 'line-tag'. Each line-tag appears
only once.
In the example provided in Table
11-1 there is only one Index field. This is the simplest way
to mark lines.
In the example provided in Table
11-2 there are three Index fields. This more complicated
method is a result of the application it represents.
