Switch 1 Task — Assign Node Names
This task assigns node names and IP addresses to each node in the network. This 
screen is administered on Switch 1. 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.
Begin
Steps
> Open Node Names screen — enter ch node-n
> Go to page 2 of the screen
> Enter values.

Switch 1 Task — Assign Link via ppp Data Module to Switch 2
This task administers a ppp data module on Switch 1 for the ppp connection to Switch 
2. The data module defines a network interface — it associates a link number with a 
port address and node name for the C-LAN port on Switch 1. It also specifies the 
node name for the destination node, which is a C-LAN port on Switch 2.
Begin
Steps

command line, you could specify any unused extension in the dial plan.]

previously assigned on this switch.
Enable Link? If you need to add an IP route that uses this node as a gateway, 
this field must be set to 
y before adding the IP route. Otherwise 
leave this field set to 
n until the link administration is complete; 
that is, until after all data modules and the processor channels are 
assigned, then set to 
y.

Mode node-1 is the server for this session. Set node-2 to client 
(c).
Interface Link This must match the link number assigned on the node-1 
data module screen in the previous task.
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.
The recommended values for gateway switches is 
6001–6099. The interface channel number must be unique 
for each gateway.
This number must match the Destination Port number on the 
node-2 Processor Channel screen.

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 
entered on the ppp Data Module screen.
Destination Port A value of 0 allows any available interface channel on the 
destination node to be used for this connection. The 
Interface Channel number for this connection on the 
Switch-2 Processor Channel screen must also be set to 0.
Session - Local The Local and Remote Session numbers can be any value 
between 1 and 256 (si model) or 384 (r model), but they 
must be consistent between endpoints. For each connection, 
the Local Session number on this switch must equal the 
Remote Session number on the remote switch and vice 
versa.
It is allowed, and sometimes convenient, to use the same 
number for the Local and Remote Session numbers. It is 
allowed, but not recommended, to use the same Session 
numbers for two or more connections. Session - Remote
Mach ID Destination switch ID identified on the dial plan of the 
destination switch (in the Local Node Number field). Field Conditions/Comments
