iMarc DSL 9783 Router Overview

The iMarc™ DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) 9783 Router is a component in the iMarc
system. This system allows you to perform end-to-end service level management (SLM)
across a hybrid iMarc DSL/ATM/Frame Relay network. Service providers can isolate
and correct problems remotely from their NOC (Network Operations Center).

The router has an SDSL front end and is a manageable frame relay aware endpoint. It
operates as a bridge or an IP router that connects a DSL link to an Ethernet network.

The iMarc DSL 9783 Router is used for data only and provides corporate LAN access
over traditional twisted-pair copper telephone wiring. Copper pairs run from the central
office (CO) to the customer premises (CP) to create the local loop. The local loop
terminates on the customer premises at the demarcation point in a punchdown block or
network interface device (NID). A typical example of using the iMarc DSL 9783 Router in
a network configuration is shown below.

The iMarc DSL 9783 CSU/DSU is available in two feature sets:

 Basic diagnostic feature set provides basic frame relay and diagnostic capability.

 Service Level Management (SLM) provides basic features, plus reporting and

monitoring.

Refer to the iMarc SLV Technical Description for a list of iMarc DSL features, and the
capabilities provided by each feature set.

Upgrading a Unit to the SLM Feature Set

Full Service Level Management (SLM) capability can be activated in units that have the
basic diagnostic feature set at any time. This is an optional feature that adds real-time
and historical network performance monitoring and SLA (Service Level Agreement)
reporting capabilities to your iMarc unit and network. To activate SLM, order a Feature
Activation Certificate. You can order the certificate for a single unit or for many units.

OpenLane SLM Release 5.3 or above is required to schedule activation of SLM features
in units, and to manage the number of activations remaining on the certificate.
OpenLane also provides a Certificate Summary Report to assist you in the management
of the certificate.

When the Feature Activation Certificate arrives, add the Activation Certificate Number to
your OpenLane SLM application’s database. Activations can occur at any time, for as
many units as desired, until no activations remain for the certificate.

Contact your sales representative for additional information.

Prior to Installing the Router

These Installation Instructions assume that the virtual circuits at the DSLAM have
already been configured. Provisioning of these circuits can be simplified by using the
OpenLane SLM (Service Level Management) system, as indicated in Provisioning Data

Circuits in OpenLane.

Provisioning Data Circuits in OpenLane

Use the OpenLane SLM system’s Provision Circuit screen to add new circuits that start
at the iMarc DSL endpoint and traverse the SCM and ATM line card in the Hotwire
GranDSLAM, and the default VC sets (from 1 to 4). A group of 250 VCs can be allocated
to each line card, which can be assigned to any port on the card. These custom
connections carry the frame relay traffic.

 Note that before the custom cross-connects are configured, the Maximum VCI

number for the uplink VP to be used by these custom connections must be
specified on the Max VCI per VPI screen, and the apply changes executed.

 For ATM line cards, custom connections can be used to expand the number of VCs

connected to the card. Each of the 250 VCs can be cross-connected from any VC
on the uplink to any port on the line card.

The following information is collected by the Provision Circuit process:

 Uplink VPI/VCI

 Slot number and Port number of the DSL connection

 Traffic Profile

 DSL link VPI/VCI

 Frame relay DLCI (provided by NSP)

 Frame relay CIR, B

A Circuit ID is then applied to the newly defined circuit, and stored in both the router and
the OpenLane SLM system.

Configuration Setup

Once the router is installed, it can be accessed locally through the menu-driven user
interface via an asynchronous terminal or PC connection, or remotely via a Telnet
session, and the router’s interfaces can be provisioned. The following provisioning can
be set up:

 Frame relay, ATM, and physical layer provisioning – Typically set up by the

CLEC (Competitive Local Exchange Carrier) using the menu-driven user interface
via an ASCII terminal or PC running a terminal emulation program, or a Telnet
session.

 Router provisioning, using the CLI – Typically accessed by the frame relay

service provider providing managed router service, or by the end user.

 SLM provisioning – Typically set up by the frame relay service provider or

the CLEC.

As soon as the router’s COM port is connected to a terminal or PC, the menu-driven
user interface can be accessed. The terminal or PC’s configuration must be compatible
with the router’s COM port settings.

Procedure

To access the menu-driven user interface:

1. Verify the terminal or PC’s configuration:

Setting Up for In-Band Management

If FRF.8 Encapsulation Mode is set to Translational, remote management of the router
can still be accomplished in-band, as indicated in the following procedure.

The following procedure assumes that the router’s Ethernet interface has already been
assigned an IP address that is in the same subnet as the management IP address
entered in Step 6 on page 20 of Using the Easy Install Feature, and that the router is not
configured for bridging only.

Refer to the iMarc SLV Configuration Reference and iMarc SLV Router Command Line
Interface for additional information.

21

Procedure

1. Create a DLCI on the router virtual port.

Configuration → Virtual Router Ports → DLCI Records

Assign the DLCI number that will be used for management on Serial port 0
(Rtr-S0 – e.g., DLCI 900).

2. Create a management PVC using the DLCI just configured on Serial port 0

to connect the management link to the router.

Configuration → Management and Communication → Management PVCs

Using the DLCI 900 example, make the following connection:

— Select Name: Mgmt900

— Intf IP Address: Special, and add the IP address for the Ethernet interface in

Step 6 on page 20 of Using the Easy Install Feature.

— Intf Subnet Mask: Special, and add the Subnet Mask for the Ethernet interface

in Step 6 on page 20 of Using the Easy Install Feature.

Verifying the End-to-End Management Path

After installation of a remote router, run an ATM Ping test from the Hotwire®
GranDSLAM.

Procedure

To Ping the router:

1. From the Hotwire ATM Line Card’s Main Menu, select the ATM Ping test.

Diagnostics → ATM Ping (D-C)

2. Enter a VPI of 0 and a VCI of 35.

3. Select a Direction of Endpoint, then Start.

4. If the test is successful, select a Direction of Network, then Start.

If both tests are successful, the VC has been tested from end to end.

Checking That Data is Being Received

Procedure

To verify that data is being received:

1. From the router’s Main Menu, select frame relay performance statistics.

Main Menu → Status → Performance Statistics → Frame Relay

2. Repeatedly R

— Verify that the counts for Frames Received and Characters Received under the

Frame Relay Link statistics are increasing.

— Verify that there are no errors under Frame Relay Errors.

If data is not being received or you are receiving errors, check your cable
connections and replace or repair a damaged cable.

3. Return to the Status menu.

Checking PVC Connections

Check PVC connections to verify that all PVCs, including management PVCs, are
configured and active.

Procedure

To verify PVCs:

1. Select PVC Connection Status from the Status menu.

The PVC Connection Status screen shows all PVC connections, the interface
source and DLCI number of the incoming data linked to the interface, and DLCI
number for the outgoing data. You can also see whether the PVC is active.

2. Verify that each PVC is active.

— If active, the router should be passing data.

— If not active, no data traffic can be carried by the PVC. If the PVC is configured

correctly, the circuit may be down.

Provisioning the Router Interface

The iMarc DSL 9783 Router defaults to bridge mode. Routing without bridging, and
simultaneous routing and bridging, are also options.

Use the bridge command from the router’s CLI to configure the bridge and routing
attributes. Also, enter an Ethernet IP address and a DHCP IP address. Refer to the
iMarc SLV Router Command Line Interface for more information.
