Engineering information
Memory and real-time requirements
The impact of the CAS feature on the memory and real-time requirements of
a particular system can be calculated by using
Meridian 1 capacity
engineering.
Traffic measurements
Traffic measurements are provided separately for each location. To
coordinate the accumulation of traffic data on a network basis, the system
clocks and traffic schedules for each location should be set and maintained in
reasonable synchronization. See
Traffic measurement formats and output
for
details concerning traffic-schedule outputs.
Trunks (TFC002)
At each Remote location, Release Link Trunks (RLTs) are considered an
outgoing trunk route. Outgoing usage and peg counts are accumulated for
traffic schedule TFC002. All other fields in this traffic schedule are zeroed.
At the Main location, RLTs are considered an incoming trunk route for each
Remote location. Usage, peg counts, failure to match, and all-trunks-busy
measurements are recorded for each RLT route in traffic schedule TFC002.
