In the example shown in Figure 20-3 above, the user is setting up bridge five to contain 30
participants. To save the information and provision the new bridge, the user simply hits 'S' for
save. Once done, this bridge has been defined and is ready for adding participants.
20.3.3 Port Provisioning on the Bridge
In order to provision the participants for the bridge, the user should position on the bridge to
be edited, and depress the 'p' key for Ports. This will take the user to a screen similar to the one
seen below in Figure 20-4
Figure 20-4.Bridge Port Screen
In Figure 20-4 above, we are now looking at the participant list for bridge five. All ports
allocated to this bridge have the bridge number (05) assigned to them, with ports four through
eight reflecting the default setting for unassigned participants. On ports one, two and three
some participants are being provisioning for use on the bridge. As can be seen, ports one and
three are going to user cards in slot U4 port 8 and U8 port 7, respectively. Port two above
shows the addition of a participant being added into the bridge from a WAN timeslot, in this
case WAN 3-1 and timeslot 21. This information can then be saved, and these three
participants are now combined into an active bridge. This information is in turn reflected at
the main bridge screen as shown in Figure 20-5 where the bridge in use reflects the three active
participants out of thirty-two possible.
