WAN Physical Configuration Screen Fields
The following sections describe WAN Physical Configuration screen fields and instructions for
setting them. The WAN Physical Configuration screen lets you configure the Physical Interface.
The WAN Physical Configuration screen displays the following information for each WPIM.
WPIM 1 — Displays configuration information for the WAN port.
Type — Displays the WPIM type.
BRIM # — Displays the BRIM slot in which the WPIM resides.
Mode — Displays the WPIM mode. Toggles between PRIMARY and SECONDARY. In a device
such as the BRIM-W6 where two WPIMs are utilized but only one can be active at a given time,
the second WPIM installed or recognized defaults to Secondary.
Active — Displays the status of the WPIM, Yes (active) or No.
Interfaces — Displays the interfaces available to each WPIM.
Synchronous Configuration Fields
The following configuration fields are displayed on the WAN Physical Configuration screen shown
in Figure 71.
Sync Port Type — Displays the Synchronous port electrical interface type. The selections toggle
between V.35, RS422, RS232, X.21, and None. The default setting for this field is V.35.
Appendix A lists Cabletron Interface Cable part numbers and connector pinouts.
Force CTS True — Displays the source of the Clear To Send (CTS) signal. The CTS signal is an
input to the CSX200. The CSX200 can either use or ignore the CTS signal. You can toggle the
selections between Yes and No. The Yes (On) setting indicates that the CSX200 ignores the CTS
signal from an external DCE (Data Communications Equipment) and forces the signal high. The
No (Off) setting indicates that the CTS signal is received from an external DCE. The default
setting is No.
Force DSR True — Displays the source of the Data Set Ready (DSR) signal. You can toggle the
selections between Yes and No. The Yes (On) setting indicates that the DSR is internally “Forced
True”. The No (Off) setting indicates that the DSR signal is received from an external DCE. The
default setting is No.
