establish the TE link and negotiate channel parameters to bring up the link.

recognizes packet or cell boundaries and can forward data based on the content
of the packet or cell header.
Layer 2 Switch: Layer 2 Switch (L2SC) forwards traffic based on MAC layer
addresses.
TDM Cross-Connect: Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) forwards data based
on the data's time slot in a repeating cycle.
