Description This parameter specifies the cost per connect time TG characteristic for
all link stations on this port.
The cost per connect time TG characteristic expresses the relative cost of
maintaining a connection over the associated TG. The units are
user-defined and are typically based on the applicable tariffs of the
transmission facility being used. The assigned values should reflect the
actual expense of maintaining a connection over the TG relative to all
other TGs in the network. A value of zero means that connections over
the TG may be made at no additional cost (as in the case of many
non-switched facilities). Higher values represent higher costs.
