224 ● register-value 3Com Router 5000 Family and Router 6000 Family
Command Reference
By configuring the register-value command, you can send the specified request signal
and require the opposite exchange to send back the corresponding answer signal. For
example, using the register-value callingcategory command, you can enable the
terminating point to send the specified signal to require the originating point to send
back the calling category.
The register-value billingcategory command is used to configure KA signal of R2
signaling. That is, the originating point sends a calling category signal to the
originating toll office or originating international exchange, which provides two kinds
of information: billing category of this connection (paid at the specified time or at
once, or toll free) and subscriber level (with or without priority).
The register-value callingcategory command is used to configure KD signal of R2
signaling, i.e., calling category. It functions to identify whether break-in and forced-
release can be implemented by or on the calling party.
The register-value subscriber-idle command is used to configure KB signal of R2
signaling. It indicates subscriber status (such as idle), and acknowledges and controls
connection. You should make sure that KB values of the both ends are the same.
Otherwise, call connection might not be established even if the called party is idle. If
3Com routers are used at both ends, you should make sure that KB values of the
both ends are the same. If PBX is used at one end, and a router is used at the other
end, you should adjust the KB value of the router to keep it consistent with that of
the PBX.
In some countries, the register signal encoding scheme does not necessarily support
all the register signals described above. For example, there is no billingcategory but
callingcategory in ITU-T recommendation. Therefore, it is recommended that you use
the default values and do not configure unless there are special requirements.
