Chapter 13 Configuring the 2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 SPAs Configuration Tasks Required Configuration Tasks This section lists the required configuration steps to configure the 2-Port or 4-Port T3/E3 SPA. Some of the required configuration commands implement default values that might be appropriate for your network. If the default value is correct for your network, then you do not need to configure the command. • Setting the Card Type • Configure the Interface Note To better understand the a

Chapter 13 Configuring the 2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 SPAs Configuration Tasks Configuring Data Service Unit Mode Configure the SPA to connect with customer premise Data Service Units (DSUs) by setting the DSU mode. Subrating a T3 or E3 interface reduces the peak access rate by limiting the data transfer rate. To configure the DSU mode and bandwidth, use the following commands: Command Purpose Router# configure terminal Enters global configuration mode. Router(config)# interface serial slot/
