144 CyberSWITCH
device change
Allows you to change information for a specific device entry. The current device table will be
displayed. Enter the device Id or device name of the entry you wish to change. Note that the
device name is case sensitive. Step through the configuration information displayed for the
device, pressing <return> if you wish to keep the originally configured information, and
entering new information where you want it changed. For a definition of the configuration
elements, refer to the section,
On-node Device Database Configuration Elements
.
device delete
Allows you to delete a device entry for a specific device. The current device table will be
displayed. Enter the device Id or device name of the device whose device entry you wish to
delete. Note that the device name is case sensitive.

AME
A 1 to 17-character, user-defined case-sensitive name that uniquely identifies the device to the
system administrator. The name may contain any displayable ASCII character except the quote “”
character. This name is displayed on the connection monitor window when the device connects to
the system.

ROTOCOL
The available line protocols for ISDN access devices. Possible line protocols include:
•
PPP
Point-to-point protocol. Allows device to use TCP/IP. The default configuration value.
•
HDLC Bridge
HDLC encapsulated bridge frames are used to connect the system to remote bridges. It is the
simplest line protocol, using a standard HDLC frame.
•
IP Host (RFC 1294)
RFC 1294 provides a simple security exchange at connection time, along with an encapsulation
method for IP datagrams. RFC 1294 devices are not interoperable with the CSX1200, CSX1000,
and CSX150 products.

ATE
Only used for Dial-Out. This value represents the throughput on a B-channel or pre-ISDN link
connecting the CyberSWITCH to a device. The data rate can be specified as either 56,000 or 64,000
bps. The default configuration for the base data rate is 64,000 bps. If 64,000-bps connections to the
device are not possible, this value should be set at 56,000 bps.

ATE
Only used for Dial-Out. The initial data rate determines the bandwidth that will be attempted when
opening the first wide area connection. This provides you with a mechanism to request that a group
of parallel connections be made to a remote device rather than a single connection. This will allow
