User interface commands for the 

WSX

 board are on a separate menu that is accessed through 

the 

command. The WAN Port menu is a submenu of the Interface menu. Typing 

at 

any system prompt displays the following menu:

♦ Note ♦

The ISDN menu will only appear on systems with a 
least one 

WSX-BRI

 module installed.

You can start most of the commands by typing the first three (3) letters of the command 
name. For example, to use the 

 command, type 

.

The following sections describe the use of commands on the WAN Port menu.

When you plug in a 

WSX 

board, it is automatically configured to the default settings. By 

default, the 

WSX

 uses Frame Relay protocol. In addition, the access rate for serial ports 

defaults to 64 kbps for RS-232 cables. The access rate for other cable types defaults to 2 
Mbps. You can change these settings, as well as several other settings, such as clocking and 
protocol type, with the 

 command.

Use the 

 command to modify a port, as shown below:

in which 

 is the slot number where the 

WSX

 board is located, and 

 is the port 

number on the 

WSX

 board that you want to modify. When this command is entered, the 

system automatically senses what type of port is being configured, and displays the 
appropriate screen for that type of port. The screen is different depending on the type of 
encapsulation used, either Frame-Relay or Point-to-Point Protocol.

Make changes by entering the line number for the option you want to change, an equal sign 
(=), and the value for the new parameter. When you have finished entering the new values, 
type 

 at the prompt to save the new parameters. The following sections describe the 

options you can alter through this menu. The following three examples show a typical setup 
screen for a serial port, an ISDN-BRI port, and a fractional T1 port, respectively.
