Configuring trunks and channels
You use the Trunk Configuration applet to set up the handshake and signaling between the Wave
Server and the equipment on the service provider end of the trunk. Using this applet, you can
set the configuration options to match the settings your trunk service provider has provisioned
on your trunks.
Locate your service confirmation letters or provisioning information forms before starting the
following procedures. See Appendix D for examples of these forms.
Caution: The trunk options and the channel/trunk signaling options must be set
identically to the settings shown on your trunk Service Confirmation Letter.
Caution: Never mix trunk types within a trunk group. If necessary, create a new trunk
group (see “About creating new trunk groups” on page 5-2).
Trunk and channel settings
Both digital channels and analog trunks have three major configuration parameters, as described
in the following table:
Parameter
Name
Description
Enabled Places a T-1 or analog channel or trunk into service or removes it from service.
Signaling Sets the signaling method for the channel or trunk.
Trunk group
(for voice or
modem channels)
Sets the trunk group membership for the analog trunks or digital channels.
For example, you can assign a trunk group called Voice Analog to eight separate
analog trunks.
