To configure NxDS0 interfaces on a Channelized OC12 IQ or IQE PIC, you perform the following tasks:
- [edit interfaces coc12-fpc/pic/port]
-
partition partition-number oc-slice oc-slice-range interface-type coc1;
- [edit interfaces coc1-fpc/pic/port]
-
partition partition-number interface-type ct1;
![]() |
Note: Class-of-service (CoS) rules cannot be applied to an individual channel configured on channelized IQ interfaces. You can only apply CoS rules to the aggregate bit streams. |
If your network equipment uses M13 or C-bit parity, convert the channelized OC1 interface into a channelized T3 interface by including the no-partition and interface-type statements at the [edit interfaces coc1-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level, specifying the ct3 interface type:
- [edit interfaces coc1-fpc/pic/port]
-
no-partition partition-number interface-type ct3;
![]() |
Note: Because the no-partition statement is included, this configuration task does not create another level of channelization, as denoted by the number of colons in the resulting interface. |

Figure 38 shows VT-mapped and M13 or C-bit parity-mapped configurations of NxDS0 IQ interfaces.

Configure the following two NxDS0 interfaces with 10 time slots and 4 time slots, respectively:
- ds-0/0/0:1:2:1
- ds-0/0/0:1:2:2
VT-Mapped Configuration
- [edit interfaces coc12-0/0/0]
- partition 1 oc-slice 1 interface-type coc1;
- [edit interfaces coc1-0/0/0:1]
- partition 2 interface-type ct1;
- [edit interfaces ct1-0/0/0:1:2]
- partition 1 timeslots 1-10 interface-type ds;
- partition 2 timeslots 12-16 interface-type ds;
M13 or C-bit Parity-Mapped Configuration
- [edit interfaces coc12-0/0/0]
- partition 1 oc-slice 1 interface-type coc1;
- [edit interfaces coc1-0/0/0:1]
- no-partition interface-type ct3;
- [edit interfaces ct3-0/0/0:1]
- partition 2 interface-type ct1;
- [edit interfaces ct1-0/0/0:1:2]
- partition 1 timeslots 1-10 interface-type ds;
- partition 2 timeslots 12-16 interface-type ds;
