[nsp] multiple channel group per E1 support for 2600/3725

[Alan]

Hi,

Thanks for the really quick response. I think I may have found the module to
suit my needs;
1/2 Port Channelized T1/E1 PRI Network Module (NM-1CE1T1-PRI and NM-2CE1T1-PRI)


looking at the 'channel-group' command syntax;
channel-group channel-number {timeslots range [speed {56 | 64}] | unframed}


channel-group;

Channel-group number. When a T1 data line is configured, channel-group numbers
can be values from 0 to 23. When an E1 data line is configured, channel-group
numbers can be values from 0 to 30.

Thanks again,
Alan
