1. About FrameSaver DSL Devices
FrameSaver DSL Features
Based upon the model ordered, or whether the device has been upgraded to
Service Level Verifier (SLV) capability, FrameSaver DSL devices have the
Diagnostic Feature Set or Advanced SLM Feature Set, each providing different
levels of intelligence for monitoring, managing, and reporting performance of the
device.
For features specific to the DSL CSU/DSU or router, see
Features
CSU/DSU-Specific Features
The following features only apply to the DSL CSU/DSU:
Two Interfaces. Provides two interfaces for traffic:
— Synchronous DTE port for user data
— Ethernet Interface for management data
Upstream Pipelining. Provides pipelining capability into the Wide Area
Network (WAN) for reduced latency, where groups of bytes are transmitted as
soon as they are received, rather than waiting for the entire frame to be
collected before sending.
LMI Protocol Support. Automatically detects and initializes the Local
Management Interface (LMI) protocol type on the user data port.
Router-Specific Features
The following features only apply to the DSL router:
and
Router-Specific Features
CSU/DSU-Specific
.
Ethernet Interface. Supports user data and management traffic. An LED is
also provided to view the status of the interface.
In-Band Router Management. Permits the router to be managed via
customer data PVCs and EDLCIs by assigning an IP address for router
management that is different from the IP address generally used for the
network interface.
Inverse ARP for User Data. Provides Inverse ARP (Address Resolution
Protocol) support for user data, as well as management data. The router
responds to Inverse ARP requests, and can acquire the IP address of a
FrameSaver device at the far end of a customer PVC. ARP information is
retained for both customer data and management data.
1-2 December 20029700-A2-GB20-20
1. About FrameSaver DSL Devices
CLI Access and Configuration. Provides a router Command Line Interface
(CLI), along with the menu-driven user interface, for configuring and managing
the router. It is accessed from the Main Menu via a direct COM port
connection or Telnet.
The following features are configurable using the CLI:
— NAT (Network Address Translation) support provides the means to bind IP
addresses in a private network to addresses in a public, or global, network
for transparent routing between the two domains on all PVCs. Up to 30
NAT pools are supported.
— Routing table configuration permits configuration of static routes. Up to
32 entries can be made.
— IP forwarding to forward multicast IP packets and customer datagrams.
— Filtering on the Ethernet and frame relay interfaces, configurable from the
CLI access list, allows the router to filter MAC frames and prevent
unwanted inbound connections. Two filter access lists are supported per
interface, one for the transmit and one for the receive direction.
The following protocol is supported:
— DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) support for dynamic
allocation of IP addresses and automatic cleanup when a subinterface is
deleted, as well as allowing multiple IP address ranges for DHCP deny
capability. The DHCP server and relay cannot be enabled at the same
time. Up to 253 DHCP clients can be supported. One DHCP pool of
addresses, and one IP address range per pool is supported.

2. User and Command Line Interfaces, and Basic Operation
Logging On
Start a session using one of the following methods:
Telnet session via:
— An in-band management channel through the frame relay network (frame
relay network service provider).
— An in-band management channel through the ATM network (DSL
provider).
— A local in-band management channel configured on the DTE port between
the FrameSaver DSL CSU/DSU and a router (V.35 units only).
— An Ethernet LAN port.
Dial-in connection using an external modem.
Direct terminal connection over the COM port.
If no security was set up or security was disabled, the Main Menu screen appears
(see the example in
Main Menu
on page 2-4). You can begin your session.
If security was set up and is enabled, you are prompted for a login. Enter your login
ID and password.
If your login was . . . Then the . . .
ValidMain Menu appears. Begin your session.
NOTE: If your login is valid, but access is denied, there are
two currently active sessions.
InvalidMessage, Invalid Password, appears on line 24, and
the Login screen is redisplayed.
After three unsuccessful attempts:
A Telnet session is closed.
The User Interface Idle screen appears for a directly
connected terminal or modem.
An external modem is disconnected.
An SNMP trap is generated.
Access is denied.
See your system administrator to verify your login (Login
ID/Password combination).
When the user interface has been idle, the device times out and the session is
automatically ended; the screen goes blank. Press Enter to reactivate the
interface.

2. User and Command Line Interfaces, and Basic Operation
Procedure
To log in when security is being enforced:
1. Type your assigned Login ID and press Enter.
2. Type your Password and press Enter.
— Valid characters – All printable ASCII characters
— Number of characters – Up to 10 characters can be entered in the
Login ID and Password fields
— Case-sensitive – Yes
An asterisk ( *) appears in the password field for each character entered.
FrameSaver devices support two sessions simultaneously. If two sessions are
currently active, wait and try again.
If two sessions are currently active and you are attempting to access the unit
through Telnet, the local Telnet server process returns a Connection refused: message at the bottom of the screen.
Ending a Session
If two sessions are currently active and you are attempting to access the unit
over the COM port (using a terminal or external modem, not via Telnet), the
User Interface Already In Use screen is displayed. In addition, the type of
connection (Telnet Connection or Direct COM Port Connection) for each
current user is identified, along with the user’s login ID.
When the user interface has been idle, the unit times out and the session is
automatically ended; the screen goes blank. Press Enter to reactivate the
interface. See Chapter 6,
Security and Logins
, to set up and administer logins.
Procedure
To end the session:
1. Press Ctrl-a to switch to the function keys area of the screen.
2. Type e (E
— For a terminal-connected to the COM port, the session is ended.
— For a modem connected to the COM port, the session is ended and the
