The PRI options supported by the 3300 ICP, delivered via an NSU or DSU include:
Min/Max
Automated Min/Max
NFAS (Non Facility Associated Signaling)
D-channel Backup
Remote LAN Access
Note: PRI delivered via an NSU or DSU is programmed using IMAT.
Embedded PRI is offered for the 3300 ICP via a T1/E1 module. Embedded PRI is programmed using ESM. For more information, refer to:
Min/Max controls the number of simultaneous incoming and outgoing calls. The level of control ranges from generic minimums and maximums on all calls to minimums and maximums for particular directory numbers.
Automated Min/Max works in conjunction with Min/Max, and increases Min/Max configurations by providing time of day programming. Time of day programming allows you to have consistent traffic control without having to frequently reprogram Min/Max. You can program call control for an entire week, and the system will automatically change Min/Max settings based on the time of day and the day of the week.
Note: Min/Max is required in order to program Auto Min/Max.
NFAS allows you to use a single D-channel to handle the signaling requirements for a group of PRI links that all use the same Protocol. This feature eliminates the need to purchase a D-channel for each link. NFAS is mainly for North America.
D-channel Backup provides an alternate D-channel for calls related to NFAS. If the active D-channel fails, the system switches to the backup D-channel to support call processing. This functionality is mainly for North America.
Note: NFAS is required in order to program D-channel Backup.
Remote LAN Access lets you configure the card as if it was the interface from the Public Network. It will allow you to send and receive information to another ISDN compatible device, such as a router, server or another system. This feature is mainly used for Email and Internet access.
