MF Protocol Profile

Each MF Protocol Profile object is a child of the Signaling Profiles object.

This object contains configuration parameters used by the Media Gateway that can be shared by all MF Circuit Groups. There is a similar Call Agent MF Protocol Profile object below the MF Local Exchange object, which contains MF protocol parameters used by the Call Agent.

A default MF Protocol Profile is supplied with the MetaSwitch NE. The default profile should be suitable for most applications.


You cannot modify the parameters of an MF Protocol Profile or delete the profile while it is referenced by a DS1 Over DS3 Port or Physical DS1 Port, or while it is enabled. To modify or delete it, you must change all the DS1 ports referencing this profile to specify a different profile (creating a new one if necessary), and then disable the existing profile.


Parameter

Access

Description
CAS bits for Idle Change Inactive The CAS bits used to represent Idle state. Values:
  • 00 (default)
    Use {0, 0}.
  • 11
    Use {1, 1}.
CAS bits for Seized Change Inactive The CAS bits used to represent Seized state. This must not be set to the same value as CAS bits for Idle. Values:
  • 00
    Use {0, 0}.
  • 11 (default)
    Use {1, 1}.
Wink generation duration Change Inactive The time, in milliseconds, to spend in Seized state when generating a wink. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 200.
Min wink detection duration Change Inactive The minimum length of a wink, in milliseconds (used for wink detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 100.
Max wink detection duration Change Inactive The maximum length of a wink, in milliseconds (used for wink detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 350.
Seize debounce time Change Inactive The debounce time, in milliseconds (used when wink detection is not required). This is the minimum time for which seize state must be detected before it is recognized as seize state. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 150.
Min seize duration Change Inactive The minimum length of a seize, in milliseconds (used when wink detection is required). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 350.
Flash generation duration Change Inactive The time, in milliseconds, to spend in Idle state when generating a flash. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 450.
Min flash detection duration Change Inactive The minimum length of a flash, in milliseconds (used for flash detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 200.
Max flash detection duration Change Inactive The maximum length of a flash, in milliseconds (used for flash detection). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 1550.
Idle debounce time Change Inactive The idle debounce time, in milliseconds (used when flash detection is not required). This is the minimum time for which the line must be idle before it is recognized as being idle. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 400.
Min idle duration Change Inactive The minimum length of an idle, in milliseconds (used when flash detection is required). Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 1550.
KP digit duration Change Inactive The length of a KP MF digit, in milliseconds. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 70.
MF or ST digit duration Change Inactive The length of an MF or ST MF digit, in milliseconds. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 70.
Amplitude of 1st component of tone Change Inactive The amplitude of the first component of each MF tone. Range: -32767 - 32767. The default is -7.
Amplitude of 2nd component of tone Change Inactive The amplitude of the second component of each MF tone. Range: -32767 - 32767. The default is -7.
Interdigit spacing Change Inactive The spacing between MF tones, in milliseconds. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 60.
Frequency set Change Inactive The set of frequencies used for the MF digits. Values:
  • US (default)
    US MF tone set
  • Forward
    ITU Forward tone set
  • Backward
    ITU Backward tone set
Wink delay Change Inactive The delay, in milliseconds, between detecting seizure and generating a wink. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 100.
Outpulse delay Change Inactive The delay, in milliseconds, between detecting a wink and commencing outpulsing. Range: 1 - 65535. The default is 70.
Number of DS1 Ports referencing this profile Read only The number of DS1 Over DS3 Port or Physical DS1 Port objects that use this MF Protocol Profile.
Requested status Read only Specifies whether an administrator has attempted to activate the MF Protocol Profile. Values:
  • Enabled
    The object has been enabled.
  • Disabled
    The object has been disabled.
Actual status Read only Specifies the current status of the MF Protocol Profile. Values:
  • Enabled
    The object is enabled.
  • Disabled
    The object is disabled.
