Specifying a Country Name
To set the Cisco AS5400 NextPort DFCs or Cisco AS5800 UPCs to be operational for call set up, you
must specify the country name. To specify the country name, use the following command in global
configuration mode:
Configuring Dial Split Shelves (AS5800 Only)
The Cisco AS5800 access server requires a split dial shelf configuration using two router shelves to
achieve the maximum capacity of 2048 port connections using the seven UPCs and three T3 + 1 T1
trunks. A new configuration command is available to define the split point:
dial-shelf split backplane-ds0 option
The options for this command come in pairs, and vary according to the desired configuration. You will
need to log in to each router shelf and separately configure the routers for the intended load. In most
circumstances it is recommended that the predefined options are selected. These options are designed to
be matched pairs as seen below.
Command Purpose
Router(config)# spe country
country
name
Specifies the country to set the UPC or DFC parameters
(including country code and encoding). If you do not specify
a country, the interface uses the default. If the access server
is configured with T1 interfaces, the default is usa. If the
access server is configured with E1 interfaces, the default is
e1-default. Use the no form of this command to set the
country code to the default of the domestic country.
Note All sessions in all UPCs or DFCs in all slots must be
in the idle state for this command to execute.
