If you change the digital protocol for a trunk in the Digital
Link Assignment form, you must reboot the system for
the change to take effect.
Before you install the T1/E1 MMC Plus, you must first
upgrade the system to Release 4.0 software. Ensure that
you connect the LAN port on the module to a layer-2
switch port on the system controller.
