WAN Configuration2-42Local Management User’s GuideSet Maximum Number of Neighbor/Remote ProfilesA neighbor/remote profile describes a possible connection. The maximum should be set to accountfor support of PPP Multilink. If PPP Multilink is used, then the number of profiles mustaccommodate the maximum possible number of additional “more BW” connections/calls desired.Consequently, each neighbor profile would then describe a possible connection to the same remoteend point (user). In the example, two profiles will be set up for the first ISDN interface. This meansthat this ISDN interface can be used to connect (call) two different end users or the same end usertwice (e.g., Multilink). The default is one profile per ISDN interface.Use the Network Tools command:setmaxprofiles [IFACENUM] [MAXPROFILESNUM]Example: To set two profiles for ISDN interface #4 issue the command:setmaxprofiles 4 2Configure the ProfilesConfigure the profiles and specify phone numbers for backup interfaces. Use Local Managementto configure BoD (submenu of the profiles menu) and enable using MLP if desired. Refer toRemote Profiles Setup for details.Verify StatusUse the Network Tools command idsnstat to verify the D channel status; it should read active. Theisdnstat command is used to display the ISDN settings, including the switch type, LDNs, SPIDs,and the operational status of the D channel. This command is normally used to verify that theswitch and the HSIM or CyberSWITCH are working properly. If the settings are not correct, or theD channel is not operational, the situation must be corrected before continuing the configuration.The connection must be operational or the backup configuration will not work.isdnstat [WANPORTNUM]NOTESSet max profiles, total profiles to allow multilink (QuickSET does this automatically).Multilink is dynamic and will automatically create an interface to support the link.
