adtran for connection from a 6T3 line card to an Adtran DSU. Specify digital-link for connection to a

Digital Link DSU (DL3100). Specify kentrox for connection from a 6T3 line card to a Kentrox DSU.

Specify larscom for connection from a 6T3 line card to a Larscom DSU.

Also see the “Interoperability Guidelines for 6T3 Line Card DSUs” section on page 1-3 for information

regarding DSU feature compatibilities.

Enabling T3 Scrambling

In interface configuration mode, enable T3 scrambling by entering the scramble configuration

subcommand, as in the following example:

Router(config-if)# scramble

Use the no form of this command to restore the default value, disabled.

Note The local port configuration must match the remote port configuration. For example, if you enable

scrambling on the local port, you must do the same on the remote port.
