This chapter describes the commands available for configuring a DDS CSU/DSU module in your router. It includes the following topics:
DDS CSU/DSU Features
Displaying the DDS Prompts
DDS Commands
DDS CSU/DSU Features
The following is a list of physical device features the DDS (Digital Data System) module supports.
Integrated Channel Service Unit (CSU) and Data Service Unit (DSU).
56 Kbps DDS (DDS-PRI, 56 Kbps loop speed)
64 Kbps Clear Channel DDS (CC-64K, 72 Kbps loop speed)
Data Link and Signalling Features
The DDS software supports the following datalink and signalling features:
High-level Data Link Control (HDLC) framing
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
Frame Relay LAN Emulation (FRLANE), and Frame Relay Virtual Circuit (FRVC) data-link layers
CSU loopback for 56K DDS and 64K Clear Channel DDS
DSU loopback for 56K DDS
Secondary DDS channel
Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) framing
Switched 56K operation
V.54 loopback or latching loopback operation
Displaying the DDS Prompts
The DDS configuration applies to a physical device. If you have multiple interfaces on one device, it does not matter which Circuit Config <NET-#> prompt for the device you use to get to the DDS configuration prompt.
To display the DDS Config <NET-#> prompt,

Press Space twice after you type a command to display the available parameters for each command. Enter help for information about using the command line interface.
[C] means the command is available at the DDS Config <NET-#> prompt.
[M] means the command is available at the DDS <WAN#> prompt.
| Command | Function |
|---|---|
| Disable [M] | Disables back-to-back-master. |
| Enable [M] | For testing purposes, enables the DDS module to be master and provide clocking. |
| Exit [C] | Returns to the previous prompt. |
| List [C] | Lists the configuration of the DDS interface. |
| Parameters [M] | Displays current runtime configuration of the DDS module. |
| Set [C] | Configures the DDS CSU/DSU. |
| Statistics [M] | Displays statistics for the DDS module. |
Disable [M]
Disables back-to-back-master.
disable back-to-back-master
Enable [M]
To use the DDS module for back-to-back connection with a DDS module in another router for testing purposes, enable one DDS module to be master and provide clocking.
enable back-to-back-master
Exit [C]
Returns to the previous prompt.

Back-to-back-master enabled
By default, DDS uses 7 data bits, which is called 56K primary
If your service provider's line uses B8ZS (Bipolar with Eight Zero Substitution) signaling, set the speed to 64K clear channel, which means the software uses 8 data bits per character.
DDS does not detect an incorrect value of this setting, so you need to make sure the speed is set in accordance with your service provider's configuration.
