This section of the 1000 ADSL High Speed Modem User’s Guide provides the basic instructions to install your modem and access online services as quickly as possible. Procedures include steps for correct placement of your modem, cable connections, and switching on the modem. These quick start procedures assume

a single PC configuration using the modem's default settings. A detailed description of features is provided in section 2 of this user's guide.

Section 2 also provides a description of advanced configurations used in small office environments. Because the Alcatel high speed modem provides a user interface to your PC, you can change default settings of the modem to accommodate specific networking requirements.

To maintain normal phone service, a special filter must be installed in the Network Interface Device or NID, the gray box mounted on the outside of your home that terminates your phone connection. This filter, sometimes called a splitter, splits the voice (phone) signal from the ADSL (data) signal.

Set-up and installation charges for ADSL service typically include the filter installation. If you are not sure that the filter is installed, contact your service provider.

The Alcatel 1000 ADSL high speed modem provides high speed virtual connections to multiple services simultaneously, using ATM/ADSL on standard telephone twisted pairs.

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a high speed transmission technology that takes advantage of existing copper telephone lines and new telephone technologies to deliver data services to residential and small business users located within a limited distance from the Central Office (CO) exchange. Additionally, ADSL operates over standard voice-grade telephone circuits without disturbing the existing telephone connections. Telephone lifeline service is NOT impacted by any failure of the modem.

The Alcatel 1000 ADSL high speed modem features industry standard ATM Forum-25.6 Mb/s (ATMF) or 10BASE-T Ethernet interfaces. Both ATMF-25 and Ethernet can use the high bit rates available through the ADSL line.

The ATMF-25 interface plugs into a Personal Computer (PC) with an ATM-Forum (ATMF) 25.6-Mb/s interface.

The 10BASE-T Ethernet interface allows single or multiple PCs to share the high speed ADSL line.

The ADSL access network provides two types of traffic over a single metallic twisted-pair:

• Data encapsulated in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) cells.

• Voice connections (regular telephone service).

These two traffic types are combined on the single twisted-pair by means of the Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) technique.

To maintain your normal phone service, a remote splitter must be installed first (see figure 19).

The ATMF port, available on some ADSL models, is an ATMF-25 interface. The interconnection between the ATM Forum equipment and the ADSL modem must always be made with a straight-through cable (the ATMF-25 interface of the modem is ATM network equipment and most ATMF-25 PC-NIC cards are ATM end equipment).

The Alcatel 1000 ADSL high speed modem supports two methods for accessing remote sites like corporate networks or the World Wide Web via a local ISP. The two methods are direct networking and dial-up networking.

Direct networking describes a connection that is always active. In other words, no preliminary steps are required to obtain a connection. Once service is enabled, the user switches on the PC and the modem, and connects to the remote site (the ISP or corporate network).

Dial-up networking describes a procedure in which the user requests a connection by dialing the network. The remote site requires a personal user account and password before access is allowed.

If your modem has an ATMF-25 port, it supports both direct and dial-up networking methods. Applications on your PC determine which method you are using.

If your modem has a 10BASE-T port, the networking method depends on the Ethernet protocol you are using:

• Direct networking is supported by an IEEE 802.1D Transparent Databridge in

the modem. You configure your local workstations with the appropriate parameters or allow your workstations to automatically assume the parameters from the network via specialized protocols.

• Dial-up networking relies on the standard Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and

local tunneling using the industry Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP).

To determine which networking method you must use, contact your local ISP or your corporate network administrator.

ATM connections, typically referred to as virtual connections, are identified by two values called a Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and a Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI). A particular VPI/VCI combination identifies a virtual connection between two

ATM devices in the network. An end-to-end connection is established by linking the virtual connections between devices. This requires all intermediate ATM devices to have VPI/VCI assignments.

For the ATM network, these assignments are the responsibility of network operators. These operators configure ATM devices to provide a Permanent Virtual Connection (PVC) through the network. The PVC provides an always-on service. Once the ADSL modem is connected to the subscriber line, an end-to-end connection can be established.

If terminal equipment is connected to the modem’s ATMF-25 port, ATM service is delivered to the PC. This means ATM cells from applications on the PC are captured by the ATMF interface and cross-connected or switched to the ADSL line.

An ATMF-25.6 PC-NIC is required to terminate the ATM connections in the PC. The PC-NIC must support encapsulations and protocols described in RFC 1483 and RFC 2364.

The virtual channels cross-connected in the ADSL modem between the ATMF interface and the ADSL line can have VPI/VCI values listed in table E. A connection is possible only if the PC-NIC is sending and receiving ATM cells on one (or more) of these virtual channels.

Bridging is a standardized layer 2 technology. It is typically used in corporate networks to extend the physical reach of a single LAN segment, and increases the number of stations on the common LAN without compromising performance.

One important characteristic of bridging is the number of bridge ports. The ADSL modem has four remote virtual ports on the ADSL interface and one local port (Ethernet) on the user interface.

The ports on the ADSL interface are described as virtual because they are associated with the ATM virtual connections configured on the ADSL line. To establish a connection from any of the remote destinations to the bridge port, PVCs must be configured end-to-end through the network.

Since bridging functionality operates below the network layer, it is transparent to any layer 3 protocol. PCs or workstations can use Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/Internet Protocol (IP), Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX)/Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX), AppleTalk, or any other protocol suite. This implies that any protocol currently being used for applications can be transported to remote destinations and vice versa.

Any type of machine (PC, MAC, or Sun workstation) can be connected via Ethernet to the ADSL modem.

The ADSL modem is a plug and play device; through the bridge learning mechanism, it discovers at which side of the bridge workstations are located. It prevents traffic submitted to the local printer from crossing the bridge. It allows frames belonging to transmissions with remote workstations to pass over the ADSL line.

Both the local PCs and remote PCs must be configured properly for end-to-end connections.

For detailed information on how to configure the PC, contact the ISP or corporate network administrator. Depending on the network protocols being used (IP, IPX, AppleTalk, NetBEUI, etc.), the PC configuration can include a wide range of parameters. The ADSL modem does not interfere with these higher layer protocols, as it is transparent to all of them.

The TCP/IP family is used as a configuration example (procedures may equally apply to other protocol families).

Every IP host must have a unique IP address, whether connected to a corporate network or the Internet. The ADSL modem is transparent to IP protocols; it allows PCs to operate with both fixed and/or dynamic IP addresses.

FFiixxeedd IIPP AAddddrreesss

Fixed IP addresses are primarily used by corporate network users; LAN administrators provide them. Before starting, the PC must be configured with an IP address.

When the PC is started, a connection is established with the remote site through the automatic exchange of specific TCP/IP messages and bridging operations.

DDyynnaammiicc IIPP AAddddrreesss

If the ISP or corporate network supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), a temporary IP address is automatically obtained for the session.

You must configure the PC to use BOOTP/DHCP.

s

Each time the PC starts up, it automatically broadcasts an IP address request. When the remote entity responds to this request, you are connected.

The following instructions to enable DHCP assume a Windows 95 operating system:

1. Start the PC and double-click the My Computer icon.

2. Open the Control Panel and double-click the Network icon.

3. In the Network window, select the Configuration tab.

4. Select TCP/IP Protocol - 3COM EtherLinkIII ISA.

5. Click Properties.

6. In the TCP/IP Properties window, select the IP Address tab.

7. Select Obtain an IP address automatically.

8. Click OK to close the TCP/IP Properties window.

9. Click OK to close the Network window.

10. Select yes when prompted to restart the PC.

After the PC is restarted, it acquires its own IP address from the server using BOOTP/DHCP.

If local workstations require connections to the outside world via the modem’s Ethernet interface and your ISP or corporate network administrator requires that you use a dial-up connection, you must use Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP). This protocol enables Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over an Ethernet interface.

Figure 25. Network Protocol Architecture

The dial-up icons you create on the PC allow you to establish connections to your corporate network or to the Internet via your local ISP. Double-clicking a dial-up icon establishes a local PPTP tunnel from your PC over your local network to the modem. The modem terminates this tunnel and relays all traffic inside it to a free ATM connection or to an ATM connection you select.

Because PPTP tunneling is based on the IP protocol, an IP connection between your local PCs and the modem must exist before setting up a local tunnel.

Configuration of IP functions in the modem is described in the CHANGING THE

Double-clicking a previously created connection icon is all that is required to connect to your ISP or your corporate network.

By default, the modem is configured for eight PPP/ATM connections. However, check with your ISP or corporate network administrator to ensure that these connections are cross-connected in the wide area network to enable end-to-end connections.

With PPP/PPTP, you indicate which remote destination you want to connect to. This requires you to modify the VPN Server field in the Connect To window as described next.

If you leave the VPN Server field unchanged (with only the IP address of the modem or its corresponding name visible), the modem automatically connects you to one of the free ATM channels when you click Connect (see figure 26). This is the simplest connection and works best if all the ATM channels are connected to the same remote destination (see figure 27).

Figure 26. Connect To Window

n

Figure 27. All ATM Channels to a Single Remote Destination

SSppeecciiffiicc CCoonnnneeccttiioon

It is possible to connect to more than one remote site through the ADSL modem,

for example, your ISP and your corporate network. In this case, the modem's ATM

channels are allocated to each site. For example, four ATM channels could be provisioned to the ISP and four channels to the corporate network. The best practice is to specify the site you want to connect to. Otherwise, the modem selects the first available connection, which could be either the corporate site or the ISP.

Check with your ISP and your corporate network administrator to verify which ATM virtual channels are cross-connected to each site. In the example shown in figure 28, channels 0-3 are cross-connected to an ISP and 4-7 to a corporate network.

n

Figure 28. ATM Channels over Multiple Remote Destinations

You can specify the ATM connection to use by inserting C:n in the VPN Server field of the Connect To window (see figure 29). C refers to Connection and n is a virtual ATM channel in the range 0 to 7.

Figure 29. Specifying a Connection in the VPN Server Field

CCuussttoomm CCoonnnneeccttiioon

You can customize the selection of remote destinations by entering a name for a Channel ID in the PPTP Destination Table (see figure 30).

Figure 30. PPTP Destination Table

For example, if you entered Alcatel next to Channel ID 4 in the Connection Icon,

you could now simply type N: Alcatel in the VPN Server field. Refer to figure 31.

Tunneling does not affect the local network; you may add as many workstations as the local network supports. However there is an upper limit to the number of simultaneous outbound connections.

Unlike bridging, a PPP/ATM channel cannot be shared by multiple users. Every local user establishing a tunnel requires an ATM channel on the network. Therefore, any user on the local network can create a tunnel as long as unused ATM channels are available.

By default, the modem supports eight PPP/ATM channels. If all PPP/ATM channels are in use and a user tries to create a new tunnel, the modem refuses the request and an error message appears on the screen.

TCP/IP is used to establish PPTP tunnels between local workstations and the modem. The data transported end-to-end may be TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, or NetBEUI. The limitations are not caused by the tunneling protocol or the ATM connection, but are a function of the PPTP client.

Currently, Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT support three protocols in the tunnel. All three can be disabled individually.

LLooccaall CCoonnnneeccttiioonn iiss LLoosst

After you create a tunnel, communication with local workstations may be lost. This is because the Windows operating system adds a new default gateway to its routing table. This new default gateway points to the tunnel. Because TCP/IP is designed to use only one default gateway, connection through the original gateway is lost.

When the tunnel is terminated, connection through the original default gateway is reestablished.

You can avoid this problem by manually adding routes to local destinations in the routing table.

Access to an ISP or corporate network typically requires minimal configuration for end-to-end connectivity. However, it is possible to customize settings of the ADSL modem to accommodate specific configurations. The ability to configure parameters in the modem requires a local connection between the modem and the PC.

This connection is made through the Ethernet port of the modem. An IP address is configured to allow a web browser in the PC to communicate to the modem.

The following are options for local connection to the modem:

The modem comes preconfigured with IP address 10.0.0.138. To establish a local connection between the PC and the modem, configure the IP address of the PC within the same IP network of the modem, and if subnetting is applied, within the same IP subnet of the modem. The address must be unique within the network.

It is recommended that the PC is allocated an IP address that falls within one of the private ranges of the modem or to use an address in the default range of the modem, for example, 10.0.0.140 (refer to figure 32).

IP address : 10.0.0.138 (Sub)netmask : 255.255.0.0 Default Gateway : none

Figure 32. Example of Single PC Configuration

The modem IP address falls within one of the ranges set aside by IANA for private IP networks. These ranges are defined in RFC 1918, Address Allocation for Private Internets. Table J lists the currently defined ranges.

The modem can also operate in more advanced local networks that rely on a BOOTP server for centralized IP configuration.

The modem contains a BOOTP client that issues BOOTP requests during the first two minutes after power-up/reset. If a BOOTP server is present in the local network, it replies, and the modem acquires its IP parameters automatically.

The modem is compliant with RFC 951 Bootstrap Protocol and supports option 1 (Subnet Mask) and option 3 (Default Gateway) of RFC 2132 DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions.

The modem supports tunneling at the user interface of a router. This advanced configuration requires a few special settings in the modem and the PCs in the network. An example configuration is shown in figure 34.

Figure 34. Example of Advanced Network Configuration

You must specify the default route for the modem. In this example, the IP address of the default router would be 10.0.0.140, which is the IP address of the Ethernet interface of the router connected to the modem.

For each PC you must add a route to the internal routing table. This route must point to the modem. For PCs equipped with the Windows 95 operating system, the procedure follows.

1. Select Start from the Windows 95 taskbar.

2. Select Programs.

3. Select MS-DOS prompt.

4. In the DOS window, execute the following command:

route add <Destination address> <Gateway address>

For example: route add 10.0.0.140 172.16.0.0.1

To verify the IP connection, you can ping the modem. If the modem responds, you can set up tunnels.

If the local IP connection cannot be established because of a configuration error or because the configured IP address of the modem is forgotten, you can use the Ping-of-Life procedure to restore the connection. A special ping packet delivers a new IP address to the modem.

To restore the local connection to the modem, you must do the following:

• Preconfigure the new IP address in the ARP cache of one of your systems.

• Reset the modem and allow the selftest to end (takes about 30 seconds).

• Ping the new IP address within 60 seconds after the end of the selftest.

The <modem IP address> is a placeholder for the IP address to be assigned. In the following example, 10.0.0.145 will be used. MAC address 01-90-D0-80-01-01 is a special MAC Group address from Alcatel to which the modem will respond.

6. You can verify if this step was successful by executing the arp command a

second time:

arp -a -N <interface IP address>

Interface: 138.203.5.172 on Interface 2 Internet Address Physical Address Type

10.0.0.145 01-90-d0-00-00-20 static

7. Switch off the modem.

8. Switch on the modem and wait 30 seconds to allow the selftest to end.

9. Ping the IP address you just entered in the ARP cache:

ping 10.0.0.145

Pinging 10.0.0.145 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.0.0.145...

When you click Initial Setup from the welcome page, you access the basic configuration page.

Numerous functions in the modem rely on Internet Protocol (IP) for their operation. IP requires a minimum set of parameters:

• IP address

• Netmask

• Default Gateway

These IP parameters are for local communication only (between workstations in your own local network and the ADSL modem). A second IP parameter set (via PPP/PPTP) is negotiated between the PC(s) and a remote site. The second IP set is not visible to you and does not interfere with the local IP configuration.

These parameters can be configured manually by entering values in the User Defined Configuration Table or automatically by enabling the BOOTP/DHCP Configuration Table.

Because the Alcatel 1000 ADSL modem supports multihoming (one interface supporting multiple IP addresses), the manually configured IP address and the automatically acquired IP address are active simultaneously.

The MAC address of the modem’s Ethernet interface is displayed under the header of the basic configuration page.

The following parameters are available on this page:

One of the characteristics of a databridge is the number of ports it supports. A bridge port is the logical equivalent of an interface. By default, the ADSL modem supports one local port (Ethernet interface) and four remote ports. The remote ports are mapped on the virtual ATM connections of the ADSL line. Only the remote ports are displayed in the table and are indicated as ADSL Port 0, 1, 2, and 3.

This field indicates the encapsulation of Ethernet or IEEE 802.3 frames to AAL5/ATM protocol.

The ADSL modem supports both the LLC/SNAP method and the VC MUX method for bridged Ethernet V2.0/IEEE 802.3 PDUs. By default, this field is set to LLC/SNAP, and the access server of the ISP or corporate network must use the same method. If it does not, contact the ISP or corporate network administrator.

S

FFCCS

This field indicates whether the last four bytes of the MAC frames are preserved or not. By default, the FCS of a MAC frame is not preserved and is set to NO. If the ISP or corporate network requires the FCS to be preserved over the ADSL connection, enter YES in this field.

VPI and VCI values identify an ATM virtual connection. Because the modem comes with preconfigured VPI/VCI values, you do not have to configure these fields.

This field provides action buttons to add or delete bridge ports. The maximum number of remote bridge ports is four.

Deleting bridge ports might be useful if you want to use more than the eight PPP/PPTP ATM connections available by default.

This table allows you to alter, if necessary, the aging timer of the bridge internal database. Only in exceptional cases should you modify the default value of 300 seconds (five minutes). The allowed range is from 10 seconds to 12 days, which complies with the IEEE 802.1D bridging standard.

The Aging Table is shown in figure 40.

However, if the ISP or corporate network administrator requires VPI/VCI values different from the default values, you must enter those values in these fields.

EEnnccaap

This field indicates the encapsulation of Ethernet or IEEE 802.3 frames to AAL5/ATM protocol.

The ADSL modem supports both the LLC/NLPID method and the VC MUX method for bridged Ethernet V2.0/IEEE 802.3 PDUs. By default, this field is set to LLC/NLPID, and the access server of the ISP or corporate network must use the same method. If it does not, contact the ISP or corporate network administrator.

PPP packets arriving via a PPTP tunnel and PPP packets encapsulated on ATM connections differ in format. The PPP format on AAL5 is shown in figure 43.

Figure 43. PPP ATM Format

The PPP format within a tunnel is shown in figure 44. This format has two additional bytes (FF and 03) in front of the packet, inherited from another encapsulation method (PPP in HDLC-like framing).

Figure 44. PPP/PPTP Tunnel Format

The ADSL modem adapts to the different formats based on the connection type. If problems with operation occur, the modem can be configured to handle the differing formats as follows:

• When you set this field to never, the modem ensures that FF-03 is never

placed in front of a PPP packet encapsulated on an AAL5/ATM connection. This is the default setting.

g

Information Padding

P_ID Information PaddingControlAddress

• When you set this field to always, the modem ensures that FF-03 is always in

front of a PPP packet encapsulated on an AAL5/ATM connection. Although not standard, some equipment may rely on this format.

• When you set this field to keep, the modem does not alter the PPP packet

arriving via a tunnel; it keeps the two bytes in front of the PPP packet when it performs the encapsulation.

AVIS: L’étiquette d’Industrie Canada identifie le matériel homologué. Cette

étiquette certifie que le matériel est conforme à certaines normes de protection, d’exploitation et de sécurité des réseaux de télécommunications. Toutefois, le Ministère n’assure pas que le matériel fonctionnera a la satisfaction de l’utilisateur.

Avant d’installer ce matériel, l’utilisateur doit assurer qu’il soit permis de le raccorder aux installations de l’enreprise locale de télécommunictions. Le matériel doit également être installé en suivant une méthode de acceptée raccordement. Dans certains cas, les fils intérieurs de l’entreprise utilisés pour un service individuel à ligne unique peuvent être prolongés au moyen d’un dispositif de raccordement homologué (cordon rallonge téléphoneque interne). L’abonné ne doit pas oublier qu’il est possible que la conformité aux conditions énoncées ci-dessus n’empechent pas la dégradation du service dans certaines situations. Actuellement, les entreprises de télécommunication ne permettent pas que l’on raccorde leur matériel à des jacks d’abonné, sauf dans les cas précis prévus pas les tarrifs particuliers de ces entreprises.

Les réparations de matériel homologué doivent être effectuées par un centre d’entretien canadien autorisé désigné par le fournesseur. La compagnie de télécommunications peut demander à l’utilisateur de débrancher un appareil à la suite de réparations ou de modifications effectuées par l’utilisateur, ou à cause de mauvais fonctionnement.
