DS3

A DS3 has a bandwidth of 44.736 Mbps, which is the capacity of 28 T1 spans. Every 85th bit in a DS3 bit sequence is used for overhead functions such as frame alignment, error detection, and terminal-to-terminal data communication. All other bits are payload bits.

The DS3 uses the M-Frame format and supports the following framing modes:

The DS3 signal format typically transports 672 channels at 64 Kbps per channel. The DS3 signaling interface is bipolar with Bit 3 Zero Substitution (B3ZS).

 

Routing Enhancements

 

Excel RADIUS Format

The IMG uses Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) protocol for streaming the Call Detail Records (CDR). The implementation is compliant with RFC 2865 and RFC 2866. The RADIUS messages are sent to external RADIUS servers. The IMG now supports an Excel RADIUS format, which includes some attributes defined by RFC 2865 and RFC 2865, as well as Excel Vendor Specific Attributes (VSA).

See An Overview of RADIUS.

Note: In software build 10.5.3 the word excel and/or cantata in each of the Vendor Specific Attributres (VSA) has been replaced with the word Dialogic. All VSA names prior to software 10.5.3 will have either excel or cantata in the name and all VSAs from software 10.5.3 and beyond will have dialogic in the name.

 

ClientView GUI Enhancements

Use the Validation Report utility to confirm that your configuration does not contain any errors that may prohibit proper operation. Analyze the report for possible errors found and modify your configuration accordingly.

See Validating Your Configuration

Added a Gateway Mask field to the External Gateway pane to allow you to configure the IMG to accept calls from multiple gateways.

 

Licensing

 

Downloading Raw API file to IMG

You can now download a raw API file to the IMG and have it become part of the config file. See Downloading a Raw File.

 

Ethernet Port Configuration

The IMG defaults to 10/100 Mbps with Auto-negotiation. For each port, you can change the setting to Full Duplex.
