How is a terminal configuration assigned to an Assignment Group/Access Terminal (AG/AT)?

A terminal configuration is assigned to an Assignment Group/Access Terminal (AG/AT) using the Set Terminal Config GP tool. This tool is specifically designed to facilitate the assignment of terminal configurations, ensuring that the right settings and parameters are applied to each AG/AT according to the needs of the utility network. Using this tool provides a structured approach to manage terminal configurations efficiently, reduces potential errors, and helps maintain consistency across the network.

The other methods mentioned, such as portal settings or manual configurations, may not provide the same level of precision or effectiveness as specialized tools. Additionally, default assignments upon creation might not meet the specific requirements for different assignments or scenarios, potentially leading to misconfigurations or inefficiencies in the network management system.
