Interface Chan For TCP/IP, interface channel numbers are in the range 5000 
– 64500.
The recommended values are: 5001 for CMS, 5002 for Intuity 
AUDIX, and 5003 for DCS connections that are not 
gateways. These three values should be reused for multiple 
instances of these applications; for example, if there are two 
Intuity AUDIX’s, use 5002 for both; or if there are four 
DEFINITY ECS’s, use 5003 for all four. The combination of 
Link, Interface Channel, and Mach ID must be unique.

Destination Node Name of the far-end node for this channel. This must be a 
name entered on the Node Names screen. For ppp 
connections, it must match the Destination Node Name

Local Session number on this switch must equal the Remote 
Session number on the remote switch and vice versa.

Switch 2 Task — Assign Node Names
This task assigns node names and IP addresses to each node in the network. This 
screen is administered on Switch 2. A Node Names screen must be administered on 
each switch in the network.
The node names and IP addresses in any network should be assigned in a logical and 
consistent manner from the point of view of the whole network. These names and 
addresses should be assigned in the planning stages of the network and should be 
available from the customer system administrator or from a Lucent representative.
Note:Enter node names for Intuity AUDIX and MSA adjuncts on page 1. Enter 
node names for switches, routers, and CMS starting on page 2.
