Choose a local device name to have the local device dial the distributive
devices. The telephone number assigned to the cabinet is used to dial the
distributive devices. The remote dial modem must be attached to the CC-IN
port.
When using a device to dial, all devices in the distributive cabinet must be on
the same control channel as the dialing device. For example, if the dialing
device’s address is 1/16, then all the devices in the distributive cabinet must
be on control channel 1.
Start Poll: The amount of time in minutes that the NMS will wait prior to
performing an automatic distributive connection. Choose a value from 0
(connection will never be opened) to 720 minutes.
Poll Duration: The amount of time in minutes that the NMS will keep the
distributive connection open. When this duration has expired, all polls to
distributive devices will automatically be cleared. Choose a value from 0
(connection will never be closed) to 720 minutes.
7. Choose Save or one of the other commands from the Action menu (see
Table 4-1).
