Appendix D. Configuring the Unit for DSX-1 Applications
The Total Access 600 Series systems are available with an integrated DSX-1 interface for both voice and
data applications. Regardless of the application (either voice or data), the Total Access 6XX has the ability
to map DS0s from the network T1 to DS0s on the DSX-1 interface (cross-connect) without affecting the
data present on the DS0s. This feature allows the Total Access 6XX to support voice with dedicated
signaling channels (ISDN), voice with in-channel signaling information (Robbed Bit Signaling (RBS) to a
PBX, key system, etc.), as well as clear channel data to an external T1 router.

Initial Setup
It is best to configure Total Access 6XX TDM applications by following the order of the top-level menus.
For example, first configure the system parameters using the
For example, first configure the system parameters using the

and

ONFIG
menus.
Next, configure the Layer 1 parameters using the
I
NTERFACES
menu. Once the Layer 1 information is
configured, proceed to the Layer 2 setup using the
L2 P
ROTOCOL
menus. Follow the Layer 2 setup with the
data “routing” menus (either
B

or
R
OUTER
). Establish packet forwarding and blocking using the
S
ECURITY
menus. Lastly, configure the physical mappings using the
DS0 M
APS
menus.
The following example provides details for configuring the Total Access 6XX to pass analog voice over
the DSX-1 interface (using RBS), digital voice (fractional PRI with D-Channel), and data bandwidth. The
Total Access 6XX provides a single DSX-1 interface, so it is unlikely that your application will require all
three features on the DSX-1 interface simultaneously; therefore ignore any steps that do not pertain to your
application.
