5.1.2.3 CrossConnect Mapping for DS0 Management Communications
When using DS0 management communication in a ring, star, or other complex network configuration,
you must give special attention to programming the CrossConnect systems. The DS0 time slot
designated to transport the network management communications must pass through each common
module in the control group. The designated time slot for network communications is programmed in a
pass-through configuration on a CrossConnect system. Figure 5-10 demonstrates an example of the
pass-through configuration for CrossConnect systems A and B.
