asterisk users - Mar 2007 - switchtype and signalling query

Hi Guys

I'm configuring a TE212P card and have the following two entries in my 
/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf

switchtype=dms100
signalling=pri_cpe

When I reload asterisk I get the following messages:
>     -- Reloading module 'chan_zap.so' (Zapata Telephony)
>   == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf': Found

However pri show span 1 shows the right values set for
both:

> T313 Timer: 4000

Should I be concerned as to the Warnings ? I'm not quite at the stage 
where I can test my setup yet and wanted to check before I get there.

Many thanks for your time.

On a reload, it is ignored since it is already set up.  It's normal.

Reload cannot change the switchtype or the signaling.  The message is 
just letting you know what config options you are using that cannot be 
changed during a reload.  You would have to unload chan_zap.so and load 
chan_zap.so or do a restart or stop and start of Asterisk to apply 
changes to those options.  At least in 1.2 and earlier you cannot add or 
remove channels with a reload either.  I don't think it gives you any 
error messages when it does not add/remove the channels. I don't know 
what limitations 1.4 has with regard to these things.
