3. The system configuration also allows you to specify startup options for your Dialogic
®
Diva
®
Media Boards. If
you plan to clone your system configuration on other computers, disable the verification of the serial
numbers. If you want to view debug or trace messages that are issued during the Diva Media Board
configuration, enable Debug code for microcode load. For further information on these parameters, see
the online help.
4. To write detailed call log records to the /var/log/divalog.../var/log/divalog.N file, activate the call history.
The call log records can be used for accounting and for generating different statistics.
5. Specify if the divasnmpx SNMP extension agent should be started during driver load.
6. Specify if the driver load should be forced even if the driver's kernel version does not completely match your
Linux kernel version. Note that you cannot force a driver load if your Linux system uses kernel checksums.
7. Specify if the Dialogic
®
Diva
®
drivers should be loaded automatically on system startup.
At the end of the system configuration, the Dialogic
®
Diva
®
WEB Configuration Wizard will prompt you to restart
the Diva drivers if necessary. To restart the Diva drivers, go to System control, where you can stop and start
the drivers.
Note: Some of the changes, for example, Start driver on system boot or Debug mode for microcode load
do not affect the state of the currently running drivers and change only the driver behavior at system or
Dialogic
®
Diva
®
Media Board start. The Dialogic
®
Diva
®
WEB Configuration Wizard ignores changes of these
parameters and does not prompt you to restart the Diva Media Board drivers.
Board configuration
Context-specific online help is available for most configuration options. To open the online help for a specific
parameter, click the parameter and a window with the help text pops up.
The Board configuration allows you to configure the Dialogic
®
Diva
®
Media Boards that are installed in your
system as required by your service provider or by the PBX to which the Diva Media Boards are connected.
To start the configuration of a Diva Media Board, select its "board" icon in the Diva Media Board list. The basic
configuration parameters are displayed.
1. Specify the D-channel protocol (switch type) as provided by your service provider.
2. Specify if you want to operate your board as terminal equipment (TE) or as network termination (NT).
Normally, Diva Media Boards are operated as terminal equipment.
3. Specify whether you are using a direct dial in (DDI) interface. A direct dial in interface provides you with an
ISDN line with a basic phone number that is able to accept any extension digits and to pass them to the
ISDN applications. If you select Yes, also specify the direct dial in number length.
Note: This option is not available for all D-channel protocols. A better control of incoming called party
numbers is available using the Call Routing Configuration.
4. Specify the layer 1 framing type. The National default setting automatically sets the correct layer 1
framing type for the selected switch type. Change this setting only if you are using your Diva Media Board in
a non-standard environment.
5. Specify the voice companding type that is used to transmit analog data on your line. The National default
setting automatically sets the correct voice coding for the selected switch. You need to change this setting
only if the voice coding required by your PBX does not correspond to the coding of the switch.
