Are talk paths being established between port networks?
Diagnostics
■
Can you talk both ways on a set on one port network dialed from another
port network and vice versa?
1. Enter show switch circuit on the A500 console. Screen 5-36 shows the
screen output.
Screen 5-36. A500:show switch circuit screen
— The pmp CBR (Constant Bit Rate) virtual circuits (VCs) between
A500 port A1.1 (PPN) and A500 port A1.2 (EPN) are used for talk
paths between port networks (PPN to EPN, EPN to PPN, or EPN to
EPN).
— They are established when calls are first setup between port
networks. Each virtual circuit represents one party of a complete
multiparty talk path.
— The report above shows one complete talk path: one unidirectional
point-to-multipoint virtual circuit from A1.1 to A1.2, and another from
A1.2 to A1.1.
— These virtual circuits may persist beyond the duration of a phone
call. The DEFINITY Call Processing software saves virtual circuits
for a few seconds after the end stations have hung up in case the
VC can be used again for another call between the same two port
networks.
— In early version of the Release 2 A500 firmware, these connections
incorrectly identified as
pmp UBR
.
