Parameter Description

Service type It specifies the traffic management type used for the PVC.

UBR Without PCR: The ATM network makes the best efforts to transmit UBR user information. This is called best-effort transmission. The transmission quality, such as cell loss, transmission delay, and jitter, cannot be guaranteed. This type of service is applicable when an end-to-end error tolerance mechanism or protocol is designed in the higher layer and the applications do not impose stringent requirements on network transmission capability.

CBR: A fixed bandwidth (or rate) is required. This type of service is applicable to real-time audio and video signal transmission.

Realtime VBR: Stringent requirements are imposed on transmission delay. This type of service is mainly used for services with stringent requirements on real-time performance, such as video monitoring and compressed voice communications.

Non Realtime VBR: This type of service does not impose stringent requirements on transmission delay. For example, a transmission delay of multiple seconds does not affect the image quality when a user retrieves the image coded with MPEG-2 from the video server through the ATM network. The transmission rate between the user and the network, such as the PCR and the SCR, however, needs to be specified to reduce the cell loss probability.

Route: If this option is selected, the PVC is set to the routing mode. Only the HG612 with the routing software supports the routing mode. In this mode, the HG612 connected to the Internet through the PVC can access the Internet by using its own routing function and thus PPP dial-up software does not need to be installed.

5-13

Multiple QoS methods are used to provide different priorities to dif ferent services or data flows to ensure that high-priority data is processed at first priority.

Different applications provided by the HG612 impose different QoS requirements. To meet these QoS requirements, the HG612 may resort to service classification to provide the required QoS through DiffServ. The HG612 sets an independent queue for each priority and uses a strict priority or the weighted round robin (WRR) mechanism to control the output of each priority queue.

Only the HG612 with the routing software supports the QoS function.

Path

Choose Advanced > QoS.

Parameter Description

Table 5-14 describes QoS parameters. Table 5-14 QoS parameters

Parameter Description

Enable It specifies whether to enable the QoS function. BandWidth It specifies the bandwidth of the QoS. QueueType It specifies the queue type of the QoS.

Multiple rules can be used simultaneously. If multiple rules

are used, all the rules must be met so that the classification

can take effect. SET2 It specifies the IEEE 802.1p traffic classification rule.

5.11 Configuring the SNTP

Function

The HG612 needs to record the operation time of certain logs. Therefore, the HG612 should access a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to obtain the accurate time.

Path

Parameter Description

Table 5-16 describes the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) parameters.

Primacy time server It specifies the primary SNTP server. Secondary time server It specifies the secondary SNTP server. Time zone It specifies the time zone.

5.12 Configuring the CWMP

Function

The HG612 is completely compatible with the TR069 standard launched by the DSL Forum. After the default configuration file is cus tomized, the HG612 can prop erly access the automatic configuration server (ACS) with the initial configuration to implement a zero-configuration solution.

If an operator has enabled the automatic service p rovisioning fun ction of the TR069, the ACS automatically allocates the parameter settings of the HG612. You need only to set the ACS parameters on the HG612 and complete the relevant settings on the ACS. The network parameters can be automatically set through the TR069 function. You do not need to set any other parameters on the HG612.
