The WAN Physical Configuration ScreenLocal Management User’s GuideC-3WPIM-DI Timeslot Configuration TableThe WPIM Timeslot Configuration table allows you to configure the way in which the WANmodule uses the T-1 line. The configuration table consists of 24 timeslots. You must assign eachtimeslot an Interface number (for example, 002 for an active Interface number or 000 if thetimeslot is not used). When you lease an entire T-1 line, you can use all 24 timeslots (the full T-1bandwidth). If you lease only a fraction of the T-1, the service provider tells you which timeslots touse.The WPIM-DI supports Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) allowing channelization of circuits(Timeslots) within the public network. You can use timeslots any way you choose. When using theWPIM-DI, you have the option of implementing all the available leased timeslots with theWPIM-DI, or you may map any of the available timeslots to another WAN module through the DIinterface.Figure C-2 Sample Network ConfigurationFigure C-3 shows a sample timeslot configuration for the network shown in Figure C-2. Of the 24timeslots, the WPIM-DI at Site #1A uses 16 to communicate with Site #2 and the remaining 8 aremapped to the WPIM-T1 at Site #1B. The WPIM-T1 at Site #1B uses these to communicate withSite #3. This configuration varies tremendously depending on how the service provider maps outthe T-1 timeslots. Your service provider will tell you which timeslots are active.NOTEWhen the diDataEnable option is selected in the DI Enabled field, data from the hostdevice passes through the DI port and not the NI port on the host platform.SITE #1ASITE #2Telco Cloud24 Timeslots16 TimeslotsSITE #38 Timeslots148202WPIM-DISITE #1BWPIM-T1(8 Not Used)8 TimeslotsDINIWPIM-T1WPIM-T1
