Chapter 4 - RASFinder Software
RF300E/RF310E 67
This dialog box displays the network switch type and the US Parameters or the Europe Parameters,
depending on the switch type selected. In the first example (above), the default US Parameters are
displayed and are available for editing purposes. The Net Switch Type is also unavailable as it is the
switch type that was defined for this particular configuration.
General Parameters
Data TEI (Terminal Endpoint Identifier) - You may have received a fixed TEI (a number from 0 to 63)
from your provider; if so, then select that number from the list in the Data TEI box. However, if the
central office switch assigns a dynamic TEI each time your RASFinder connects to the network, then
leave it set to the default, “Auto TEI.” If you have multiple RASFinders attached to a network
terminator bus, you may want to set the Data TEI to ”Disabled.”
Voice TEI - You may have received a fixed TEI (a number from 0 to 63) from your provider; if so, then
select that number from the list in the Voice TEI box. However, if the central office switch assigns a
TEI each time your RASFinder connects to the network, then leave it set to “Auto TEI.” Again, if you
have multiple RASFinders attached to a network terminator bus, you may want to set the Voice TEI
to “Disabled.”

Voice SPID - Enter the Voice SPID, if required, that was assigned by the local phone company for
the specific BRI line to which the RASFinder is attached. The Voice SPID string can have up to 20

and AT&T switches, only the digits 0-9 are valid.
Data Directory Number (DN) - The data DN is a telephone number the ISDN service provider
assigns, if required, to the RASFinder at subscription time; this can be a string of up to 24 characters.
Valid characters are 0-9, the * character, and the # character.
