Telecom Environment

Building a Telecom Network Model

You build a telecom network model as described in Chapter 2, "User Interface Features," ensuring that four-wire and two-wire equipment models are connected with the appropriate types of arcs. The Telecom Equipment palette (Figure 3.6) provides quick access to some of the more commonly used telecom models.

If your network model will be used for simulation purposes (as opposed to documentation purposes only), it is important to include station equipment models (for example, telsets) in your network model. These models provide the primary traffic generators for a simulation. (More on traffic generation in the "Traffic Generators" section.)
