Unit
A single 1U chassis is referred to as a unit.
Port ID
Port ID is the generic term used to refer to a DSL or Ethernet port in this document
regardless of what method is used. For DSL ports, the port ID can be a number
from 1 to 24, or an interface name as described below. The fast Ethernet ports are
named eth1 and eth2.
DSL Port ID
There are several ways a DSL port can be identified in the unit.
Interface Number. DSL ports 1–24 of the unit can be referred to by the numbers
1–24 respectively.
Example:
PDYN# configure interface dsl 24 line-code dmt
Interface Name. You can use the configure interface dsl name command to
assign a name to the port, which you can then use instead of the number.
Example:
PDYN# configure interface dsl room_401 line-code dmt
Port Name or Number with Priority Group. You can additionally specify a
specific priority group to modify. The priority group is specified using a colon (:)
and a number from 1 (lowest priority) to 8 (highest priority) after the port name or
number. If no priority group is specified, then group 1 is assumed.
Example:
PDYN# configure interface dsl room_401:8 line-code dmt
All. The keyword all may be used to specify all DSL ports in a command that
refers only to DSL ports.
Example:
PDYN# configure interface dsl all line-code dmt
Range. Any of the port ID types may be used as an operator in a range
specification. The only requirement is that the port used as the first operator in a
range must have a lower interface number than the second operator.
Example:
PDYN# configure interface dsl 1-24 line-code dmt
