Configuring Inter-Nodal Trunks 7-5
When Changes Take Effect at the Port
When you add a new Port record, it will be written to the database as soon as you enter
the final parameter value. When you modify a parameter in an existing record, the
change will be written to the database immediately.
The change will become effective at the port in one of the following ways:
●
Press [F7] while still in Maintenance operations on the record. This will
temporarily disable the port, then write the change to the software running in the
node.
●
Re-IPL the node containing the changed port.
Trunk Port Parameters
Table 7-1 lists the parameters for all trunk types. Which parameters are displayed in a
record depends one or more of these factors:
●
Trunk type (and underlying port type if a logical trunk)
●
Whether or not the port is configured for connection to a V.25bis modem
●
Whether or not the port is configured as a backup trunk
