ExtremeWare 7.7 Command Reference Guide 2187
configure ports e1 timeslots
configure ports <portlist> e1 timeslots <timeslots>
Description
Select the E1 timeslots to use for transmitting data.
Syntax Description
Default
All timeslots are used by default.
Usage Guidelines
The E1 signal is divided into thirty-two timeslots, numbered 0 through 31. The first timeslot (0) is
reserved and cannot be used to transmit data. The timeslot numbered 16 is often used for voice phone
calls in installations that combine voice and data. For installations that use the full E1 bandwidth for
data communications, you will not need to configure which timeslots are used. For installations that do
not use the total E1 bandwidth, your E1 provider will tell you which timeslots to use.
A timeslot list uses a dash to represent a range of numbers and a comma to separate single numbers or
ranges. Valid timeslots range from 1 to 31.
Example
The following command specifies timeslots 1 through 15 and 17 through 31 for the E1 port 1 on slot 4:
configure ports 4:1 e1 timeslots 1-15,17-31
