Description

The following table describes the arguments for these commands:

Argument	Description	Comments
card	A number that identifies a telephony card	�
protocol	The digital protocol used on the card	Options include: prit1 (ISDN-PRI T1), prie1 (ISDN-PRI E1), loopt1 (Loop Start T1), loope1 (Loop Start E1), and winkt1 (Wink Start T1), and r2mfce1 (R2MFC) For DID and ANI, R2MFC options include: mfc_did_digs (anticipated number of DID digits), mfc_ani_digs (anticipated number of DID digits). Up to 30 digits may be specified. Note: Whenever possible, match the number of digits specified to the number that will actually be received. If fewer digits are received that what is specified, long pauses may occur before the call receives a response.
frametype	The frame format	�
linecode	A replacement for strings of consecutive zeros in data transmission using pulse code modulation (PCM)	Options include AMI, AMI_ZCS, and B8ZS for ISDN-PRI T1
idlecode	The code used in digital communications that represents am absence of data	Options include 11111111, 01010100, and 01010101
length	The length of the cable between the telephony board and the telephone network	This value should only be changed if the length is more than 200 feet or if there are transmission problems. Applies only to T1.
fax	Whether or not fax is enabled	�
isdntype	The supplier of the ISDN service	Applies only to ISDN-PRI T1 and E1.
clktrunk	The trunk that the card uses to set its internal clock	Options include 1, 2 (for dual cards); 1, 2, 3, 4 (for quad cards).
clkfallback	The trunk that the system uses to set its internal clock if the timing source on clktrunk stops working	At least 2 trunks must be connected to the card, with one being the clktrunk. The card uses the clktrunk source again when that source starts working. Options include none, 1, 2 (for dual cards); none, 1, 2, 3, 4 (for quad cards).
clksrc	The origin of the telephony board's clock reference	OSC refers to the telephony board's oscillator, and NETWORK refers to the clock extracted from the telephony trunk.
clkmode	If the telephony board only controls its own clock, then the mode is STANDALONE.	STANDALONE is the only option
country	Country where the system is located	Argentina (arg)`,` Brazil (bra), Canada (can), Chile (chl), China (chn), Columbia Telecom (col), Germany (deu), France (fra), Great Britain (gbr), Indonesia (idn), India (ind), Ireland (irl), Italy (ita), Japan (jpn), Korea (kor), Mexico (mex), Malaysia (mys), Philippines (phl), Columbia Comsel (sel), Singapore (sgp), Thailand (tha), United States (usa)
dchannel1	Whether or not a data channel is available on Trunk 1	Applies only to ISDN-PRI T1 and E1.
dchannel2	Whether or not a data channel is available on Trunk 2	Applies only to ISDN-PRI T1 and E1.
dchannel3	Whether or not a data channel is available on Trunk 3	Applies only to ISDN-PRI T1 and E1.
dchannel4	Whether or not a data channel is available on Trunk 4	Applies only to ISDN-PRI T1 and E1.
overlap_rcv_to	Number of milliseconds that the system waits to answer an incoming call	Values from 0 to 14. Applies only to ISDN-PRI E1.
overlap_rcv_dnis	Expected number of DNIS digits	Values from 0 to 30. Applies only to ISDN-PRI E1.
mfc_did_digs	Number of allowable DID digits	Values from 1 to 30. Applies only to R2 MFC E1.
mfc_ani_digs	Number of allowable ANI digits	Values from 0 to 30. Applies only to R2 MFC E1.
wnk_num_digs	Number of digits for ANI/DNIS	Values from 0 to 30. Applies only to Wink Start T1.
blockwaittime		Values are expressed in millisecs.

The nms assign command creates a configuration file, which is created by copying default parameters for the specified protocol to the configuration file, except for any parameters that have been entered on the command line. Any command-line parameters are copied to the configuration file. The nms assign command exits with a usage error if an assign is attempted for a card that already has a configuration file. If the card does not exist, the command exits with a usage error.

The nms change command changes configuration file parameters for the card. The protocol associated with the change command is determined from the existing configuration file for that card. If the configuration file does not exist, the change command exits with a usage error.

Note:
The nms assign and nms change commands issue an error message if you enter y for any of the dchannel arguments when using the protocol prie1, since NFAS is not supported for the prie1 protocol.

The nms display command, with a card parameter, displays the protocol and all of the administrable fields for that protocol for the card.

The nms unassign command deletes the configuration file, and the backup configuration file, if any, for the specified card. (The backup configuration file, that adds .bak to the configuration file name, is created if one or more nms change commands are executed for the card after it has been assigned.)

The nms display assignments command displays the cards and associated protocols for every card that has a configuration file.

Files

The following file is associated with the nms command:
