Introduction

Overview
1
The DSU/CSU acts as an interface between the T1 digital network and the customer premises equipment, converting signals received from the DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) to bipolar signals that can be transmitted over T1 lines. Typical applications include shared access to network-based services, Local Area Network (LAN)/Wide Area Network (WAN) interconnection, and fractional T1 network applications.
In addition to the T1 network interface and the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) interface, the Model 3162 provides two synchronous data ports.
Features
The DSU/CSU optimizes network performance with a wide range of features such as the following:
Local or remote configuration and operation flexibility. Several loopback capabilities and test pattern generators. DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) capability. Asynchronous terminal interface support. Alarm message display/print capability. Telnet access for remote asynchronous terminal operations. Network management provided through industry-standard Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP).
March 1999
1-1
Introduction
DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) Interface
The DTE Drop/Insert interface allows DTEs/PBXs that support the DS1 signal format to share the T1 network with other high-speed equipment.
Asynchronous Terminal Interface Support
The DSU/CSU can be configured and managed from an asynchronous (async) terminal. The asynchronous terminal’s full screen display uses a menu hierarchy to perform device-control operations.
Chapter 3, with the use of the asynchronous terminal for DSU/CSU control.
Alarm Message Capability
The DSU/CSU can be attached, either locally or remotely, to an ASCII terminal or printer to display or print alarm messages. Alarms can also be displayed on a PC that is using a terminal emulation package.
Chapter 4,
Telnet Access
Remote async terminal operations can be performed using Telnet access. Telnet is a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) service that supports a virtual terminal interface.
SNMP Management Support
SNMP is a network management protocol that is used to monitor network performance and status, and to report alarms (i.e., traps). To function, SNMP requires a manager consisting of a software program housed within a workstation or PC; an agent consisting of a software program housed within a device (e.g., the DSU/CSU); and a Management Information Base (MIB) consisting of a database of managed objects. The DSU/CSU can be managed by any industry-standard SNMP manager.
Operation
, provides operational examples to help you become familiar
Maintenance
, provides a list of alarm messages.
1-2
Two link layer protocols, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP), are supported for connection to an external SNMP manager or network device (e.g., a router).
The SNMP manager or network device can be directly connected to the communications (COM) port. An external LAN Adapter can be connected to either the COM port or the auxiliary (AUX) port to provide Ethernet connectivity. Also, the DSU/CSU can be daisy chained together by connecting the COM port of one device to the AUX port of the other, providing SNMP connectivity.
The SNMP management system can communicate to the DSU/CSU remotely through the Facility Data Link (FDL) or the synchronous data port’s Embedded Data Link (EDL).

Power-Up Self-Test
After you connect the DSU/CSU to a power source, the unit performs the power-up self-test to ensure that it is in good working order. The DSU/CSU performs this test on itself upon power-up or after a device reset, unless it has been disabled by the Self-Test configuration option (see Appendix C,
Configuration Options
The self-test includes a basic processor test, a limited memory test, a code checksum test, and basic verification tests of the internal components.
Procedure
The power-up self-test consists of the following steps:
1. Once the DSU/CSU is plugged in, the Fail LED blinks ON and Off

Initiating an Asynchronous Terminal Session
You can configure and manage the DSU/CSU from an asynchronous terminal that is configured for 9.6 kbps, 8 characters, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
You can connect the asynchronous terminal directly to the COM port of the DSU/CSU, or you can establish a remote connection using dial-in or Telnet access.
Once the appropriate access is established, the Main Menu screen (Figure 3-2) appears (unless a password is required).
If a password is required, the Login screen displays the prompt for password input. (Refer to
To move between the Screen area and the Screen Function Keys area (Figure 3-2 ), press Ctrl-a (Control key and a).

Recovering Asynchronous Terminal Operation
If the DSU/CSU is misconfigured, leaving it in a state that does not support asynchronous terminal operation, use the following recovery procedure.
Procedure
1. Power cycle the DSU/CSU, waiting for the completion of the power-up
self-test.
2. Press the asynchronous terminal’s Return key five times in succession.
(Begin pressing the Return key within two seconds after the completion of power-up self-test, and do not wait longer than one second between each successive key press.)
3. The System Paused screen appears. Use it to reset the COM port
configuration options or to reload all factory default configuration options.
