6. Configure QoS parameters.
You have to define Egate-100 at every step, as many of the parameters do not
have default settings. If a parameter is not correctly defined, an error message
appears.
Setting Device-Level Parameters
Configuring the Clock Source
The clock source is available for configuration only if the unit is equipped with a
T3 interface. In a unit with STM-1/OC-3 interfaces, the clock is set to the Rx clock
of the SDH/SONET link. If the link fails, the clock is set to the internal clock until
the link recovers.
Egate-100 has a master system clock, and a fallback clock that goes into action in
case the master clock fails (e.g. when the link supplying the timing fails).
The master and fallback clock sources can be the Rx clock of the T3 active link, or
the internal clock of the Egate-100 unit. It is recommended to have different
settings for the master clock and fallback clock: for example, Rx Clock for the
master clock and Internal for the fallback clock.
In the event that both Master and Fallback clocks (set to Rx) fail, the system clock
is automatically set to Internal.
³ To select the Clock Source:
