Configuring a User Data Port (CSU/DSUs)

Configuring the DSX-1 Interface

Configuring the ISDN DBM Interface

Configuring the Network Interface

When configuring the physical characteristics for the network interface, select

Physical from the Network menu (see Table 4-6, Network Physical Interface

Options).

Table 4-6. Network Physical Interface Options (1 of 4)

Line Framing Format

Possible Settings: D4, ESF

Default Setting: ESF

Specifies the framing format for transmitted and received signals on the T1 network

interface.

D4 – Uses D4 framing format.

NOTE: This setting is not recommended by network carriers. False yellow alarms may

occur after traffic has been running and the channel returns to idle, or when there is

light traffic when other settings are selected. ESF format does not create this problem.

ESF – Uses Extended Superframe framing format.

Line Coding Format

Possible Settings: AMI, B8ZS

Default Setting: B8ZS

Specifies the line coding format for the network interface.

AMI – Uses Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) line coding format.

B8ZS – Uses Bipolar 8 Zero Substitution (B8ZS) line coding format.
