Physical interface

Type of the physical interface.

  • X21 switched. for compatibility with former version.

  • ISDN U. ISDN BRI U 2B1Q.
  • V24. V24, V35, V36, X24.
  • Ethernet/802.3. Ethernet AUI, 10B2, 10BT.
  • ATM. E3 and STM1/STS3c.
  • PSTN. Public switched telephone network.

  • SL protocol stack (or DL protocol stack)

    The decoding structure uses a protocol stack for frame events:

    • A stack includes several protocol layers used as decoding levels.
    • With the principle of successive encapsulation, the control field (protocol fields) and the data field, conveying data, can be considered at each decoding level.
    • The stack can include several parallel trees at a layer when the lower layer includes a multiplex of services identified by a protocol field.

    The sizing has been realized with 16 levels and 4 trees maximum.
    Application to the OSI protocols enable one to match the OSI layers and the decoding levels.

    The SL/DL protocol stack is defined by layers, and includes one or several protocol reference(s).
    The highlighted protocol reference is the current one, with the following display rules:

    • -Di- None. The protocol layer numbered i is not used.
    • -Di- Protocol (param). The protocol reference is used at layer numbered i.
      For some protocols, reminder of the used protocol parameter is displayed between brackets.

    Replace... To replace the current protocol reference by an other one selected in a choice list.

    Insert... To insert a new protocol reference at the related layer.

    Delete To delete the current protocol reference.
