F.3 nmsconfig Board Configuration Utility

nmsconfig is a board configuration utility that detects the CG boards in the chassis and asks you a series of questions to configure the boards properly.

Fill out this worksheet below before running the install script.

nmsconfig Worksheet

Print out one worksheet for each board you install in the chassis.

________________________________________________________________________________

Board IP address: _________________

Board subnet mask: _________________

Board gateway address: _________________

Circle the number that best describes the conference bridge:

  1. The bridge will only support IP clients

  2. The bridge will support both IP and PSTN clients

If you circled 1, you have finished the worksheet for this board; otherwise, continue to fill out the rest of the worksheet.

Circle the type of trunks that will be used on the board:

  1. T1

  2. E1

Circle the type of signaling that will be used:

  1. CAS (Channel Associated Signaling, such as wink start or ground start)

  2. ISDN

If you circled T1 and CAS for the last two questions, go to the T1 CAS section of the worksheet.

If you circled T1 and ISDN, go to the T1 ISDN section of the worksheet.

If you circled E1 and CAS, go to the E1 CAS section of the worksheet.

If you circled E1 and ISDN, go to the E1 CAS section of the worksheet.

  2. AMI (Alternate Mark Inversion)

  3. AMI with jammed bit 7 zero code suppression

  4. AMI with jammed bit 7 zero code suppression Bell Ver.

  5. AMI with zero data byte replaced with 1001 1000

  6. AMI with jammed bit 8 zero code suppression

Circle the trunk protocol:

  1. Wink start protocol

  2. Ground start protocol

  3. Loop Start protocol

  4. Feature group D protocol

  5. Off-premises station protocol

  6. Multi-frequency R2 protocol

  7. European Digital CAS protocol

  8. Australian P2 protocol

  9. NEC PBX protocol
