Configuring Channelized E1 IQ and IQE Interfaces

Configuring E1 IQ and IQE Interfaces

To configure an E1 interface, include the no-partition and interface-type statements at the [edit interfaces ce1-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level:

This configuration creates interface e1-fpc/pic/port.

Configuring Fractional E1 IQ and IQE Interfaces

By default, all the time slots on a channelized E1 interface are used. To configure a fractional E1 interface on a Channelized E1 IQ PIC, perform the following tasks:

1. Include the no-partition statement at the [edit interfaces ce1-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level:

   This configuration creates interface e1-fpc/pic/port.

2. Configure the number of time slots allocated to the E1 IQ or IQE interface by including the timeslots statement at the [edit interfaces e1-fpc/pic/port e1-options] hierarchy level:

NxDS0 time slots configured on either a channelized STM1 IQ or IQE interface or a channelized E1 IQ or IQE interface are numbered from 1 to 31 (0 is reserved), while fractional E1 time slots are numbered from 2 to 32 (1 is reserved).

To configure ranges, use hyphens. To configure discontinuous time slots, use commas. Do not include spaces.

Configuring NxDS0 IQ and IQE Interfaces

By default, all the time slots on a channelized E1 interface are used. To configure an NxDS0 IQ interface on a Channelized E1 IQ or IQE PIC, you must configure the number of time slots allocated to the NxDS0 IQ or IQE interface by including the partition, timeslots, and interface-type statements at the [edit interfaces ce1-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level, specifying the ds interface type:

For channelized E1 IQ and IQE interfaces, the partition number range is from 1 through 31.

For E1 IQ and IQE interfaces (e1-fpc/pic/port), the time-slot range is from 2 through 31. For channelized E1 IQ and IQE interfaces (ce1-fpc/pic/port), the time-slot range is from 1 through 31. You can designate any combination of time slots. To configure ranges, use hyphens. To configure discontinuous time slots, use commas. Do not include spaces.
