1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

Introduction

The BitStorm 1900 utilizes patented EtherLoopTM Intelligent Ethernet
technology to provide a robust platform that supports lifeline Plain Old
Telephone Service (POTS) in addition to a variety of new revenue­generating services ranging from simple high-speed Internet access to
advanced quality video conferencing, multi-stream Video On Demand
(VOD), IP multicast video, and toll-quality Voice over IP (VolP).

The BitStorm 1900 functions as an Internet Protocol Digital Subscriber
Line Access Multiplexer (IP DSLAM) that directs IP data traffic flow
between StormPort™ CPE modems and a data network. The BitStorm
1900 is the backbone component of an EtherLoop, Intelligent
Ethernet™-on-the-Loop, system. Supporting StormPort CPE modems
in voice/data or data-only applications, the multiplexer is located in the
communications room or telco.

Product Overview

The BitStorm 1900 System Components

The basic BitStorm 1900 System includes the BS1900 Shelf (with
circuit packs), Air Baffle, Filter Shelf (s), and a Fan Tray. Depending
on the application, multiple components may be installed and/or
omitted in each rack.

Figure 1-1,“BitStorm 1900 Shelf with Cards and Components,” on
page 2 shows the BitStorm 1900 shelf with the modem cards and basic

components installed.

BS1900 Shelf contains 13 card slots housing the following circuit
packs:

• Ten (10) BitStorm Multiplexer Modem Cards

• Management Interface Unit (MIU)

• Power Card

• Blank Filler Card*

* The blank filler card is used to keep the air flowing properly through the

unit.

1-2 BitStorm 1900 Installation and Maintenance Guide 1900-A2-GN20-00

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

The BitStorm 1900 shelf and components are installed in a standard
19” rack and can be installed in 23” racks using optional 23” mounting
ears. Up to five (5) BS1900 Systems can be installed into one rack
depending on the application and the associated required components.
Refer to "Appendix B. Cabling Specifications‚" on page 115 for typical
rack configurations.

Depending on the application/configuration, the following components
are installed in the rack with the BitStorm 1900 Shelf to comprise the
system:

Air Baffle

The Air Baffle, installed above the Filter Shelf (or the BitStorm 1900
Shelf), is used to deflect the exhaust air flow out the rear of the rack.
When more than one BS1900 system is installed in a rack, the Air
Baffle prevents the heated exhaust air of one BS1900 system from
being drawn into the shelf of the BS1900 system installed above.

Fan Tray

The Fan Tray provides forced-air cooling throughout the BS1900
system. A Fan Tray is installed under each BS1900 Shelf and contains
six forced-air cooling fans to ensure sufficient cooling for the entire
system. The -48 V DC Fan Tray is ideal for the CO (Central Office) and
the 110/220 V AC Fan Tray has been uniquely designed for enterprise
applications.

Filter Shelf Option

The Filter Shelf contains low-pass filter splitters to separate out-of
voiceband signals from the voiceband traffic between the BitStorm
modems and the external voice facility equipment. Each Filter Shelf
contains up to 10 filter cards. One filter card supports 12 EtherLoop
lines installed in the BS1900 shelf. Depending on the application, more
than one Filter Shelf can be installed, one on top of another.

1900-A2-GN20-00 BitStorm 1900 Installation and Maintenance Guide 1-3

Each Filter Shelf can filter up to 120 lines and requires 3RU of rack space.

Filter 66-Block Option

The Filter 66-Block provides the
same POTS splitter function as the
Filter Shelf; however, it is a space
saving and economical alternative
to the Filter Shelf. Using the
lastest technology from Excelsus
Technologies, the Filter 66-Block
integrates a 66-Block with a PCB
(Printed Circuit Board) Filter,
eliminating the need for a Filter
Shelf, saving rack space and
reducing the number of cables
necessary for the installation. Each
Filter 66-Block can filter up to
24 lines.

CO Modem Cards

One BitStorm 1900 shelf supports up to 10 modem cards. Each CO
modem card controls the StormPort CPE modems, directing data traffic
flow between the CPE modems and the data network.

WARNING: POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE! To

comply with Telcordia GR-1089-CORE,
Outside Plant Voltage/Current Limiting
Protection is required for each Outside Plant
Exposed line.

The following CO modem cards are available:

• 10306 CO modem card – 6-port dedicated, 10 Mbps

• 10224 CO modem card – 24-port statistically multiplexed,
10 Mbps

Privacy Management

The Privacy Management (a.k.a. MAC Address Filtering) feature
ensures the privacy of each user connected to a local layer 2 network.
StormTracker EMS or the Site Manager is used to enter the MAC
address of a gateway or router to connect to the internet or a local
server in the StormPort CPE modem Privacy Management filter table.
The Privacy Management ensures that downstream packets are
discarded unless they are from one of the MAC addresses in the filter
table and upstream packets are discarded unless they are going to one
of the MAC addresses in the filter table. Thus, it is impossible for a
user connected to one CPE modem to see another user on the same
local L2 network connected to another CPE modem, unless the user’s

1-6 BitStorm 1900 Installation and Maintenance Guide 1900-A2-GN20-00

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

computer’s MAC address is entered into the Priva cy Management filter
table.

NOTE: Creating a filter table on a 10224 CO modem affects all

EtherLoop ports on that card and one of it s CPEs is redund ant,
but possible. However, the CO table should be the same or be a
superset of the CPE table.

Same Card Broadcast

The Same Card Broadcast feature is an option on CO modems that
should be used in conjunction with Privacy Management to provide
secure communications (default is Disabled):

Refer to Table 1-2, “Same Card Broadcast Feature Enabled/Disabled
Function for CO Modems,” for the feature function and security issues
associated with each setting.

Spectrum Manager ADSL Protect

The Spectrum Manager software makes EtherLoop spectrally
compatible with asymmetrical services such as ADSL and G.Lite,
detecting and protecting against interference within the same binder . In
addition, EtherLoop in its native state is spectrally compatible with
symmetrical digital services such as T1, HDSL, HDSL2, or SDSL.

Spectrum Manager operates under five modes of operation:

Mode Description

Native EtherLoop operates without the analysis of other service activ-

ity in the individual loops.

Monitor Spectrum Manager analyzes other services in the loop that

may limit EtherLoop performance.

Forced EtherLoop provides optimum spectrally compatible perfor -

mance with asymmetric services in the individual loop that
may temporarily af fect Et herLoo p’ s ups tream c apa bility. In this
mode, EtherLoop is forced to “mimic” asymmetric DSL.

Auto-Protect EtherLoop operates in an Asymmetric Mode if asymmetric

interferers are present. EtherLoop returns to normal upstream
operations once the interference is gone.

Video Protect EtherLoop operates i n a forced Asym metric Mode w ith gu aran-

teed high downstream bandwidth for the delivery of streaming
video applications.

Spectrum Manager-Video Protect

The Spectrum Manager-Video Protect activates the EtherLoop
asymmetrical operation with all upstream traffic limited to a training
speed of 25 (3 Mbps) on the BitStorm 10306 CO modems.
Downstream traffic continues to run as fast as the loop conditions
allow . When this feature is enabled, all nearby EtherLoop lines running
high-speed video downstreams are protected. All CO modems at a site
are required to have the feature enabled by StormTracker Site Manager
or EMS via the MIU SNMP agent.

Passes VLAN Tagged Frames

The BitStorm 1900 is capable of passing 802.1Q tagged Ethernet
frames of 1522 bytes. To implement a VLAN solution, a 802.1Q
tagging switch must exist upstream. Also, an 802.1Q tagging switch or
device must be present on the customer end of the CPE modem.

WAN Interface Cards

The BitStorm 1900 supports the following WAN interface:

• MIU (Management Interface Card) – supports 10306 and 10224
modem cards

MIU SNMP Functionality

The MIU provides remote monitoring and configuration functionality
via SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). Through the
SNMP agent, users can remotely manage and configure modem
settings and monitor the performance statistics of all modems in the
BitStorm 1900 system.

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

The MIU SNMP agent supports the SNMPv1/RFC 1157 protocol and
supports RFC 1213 MIB II interface groups and the RFC 1493 Bridge
MIB. The MIU SNMP agent also includes an EtherLoop private MIB.
In order to manage the SNMP agent, the user must load our private
MIB into the user’s SNMP Network Manager using the procedure
accompanying the specific Network Management Software (i.e., HP
Openview, etc.).

A list of all supported MIBs and the private MIB can be found in
document 1900-A2-GK40, BitS torm 1900 IP DSLAM Supported SNMP
MIBs. This document and private MIBs can be downloaded from the
Paradyne website at www.paradyne.com.

Mixing CO Modem Cards

StormPort CPE Modems

It is possible to fill a BitStorm 1900 shelf with different modem cards
(i.e., five 10306 CO modem cards, and five 10224 CO modem cards).

For the 10306 CO modem cards, Spectrum Manager includes a Video
Protect mode that protects EtherLoop heavy downstream traffic from
disrupting upstream traffic on adjacent EtherLoop lines.

NOTE: The BitStorm 19 00 CO modem ca rd port s ar e provisioned in the

CO & CPE Add/Search functions of the Database module in the
StormTracker Site Manager application. The modem database
is auto-provisioned, identifying the physical shelf slot location

10306 CO Modem IP Multicast Operation

An optional feature of the 10306 CO modem card is the ability to pass
IP Multicast traffic only to the subscribing port. The 10306 modem
card functions as a multi-layer switch and supports IGMP v1/v2 when
connected to the MIU (Management Interface Unit) card via the 100
Base-T Ethernet backplane connection. The 10306 modem creates Port
T able data when a client joins a multicast group and forwards the IGMP
message upstream through the MIU to an IGMP-enabled Switch. When
the IP Multicast data is streamed back to the 10306, it replicates and
forwards the IP Multicast streams ONLY to the ports with subscribing
clients.

1-14 BitStorm 1900 Installation and Maintenance Guide 1900-A2-GN20-00

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

The 10306 IP Multicast Operation works in the following manner:

1. The client issues an IGMP Join Request (Unsolicited report)
Layer 2 broadcast.

2. The 10306 modem listens for any IGMP packets (IGMP snooping)
and maintains a table mapping the IP Multicast stream to the port.

3. The 10306 forwards the IGMP Join Request upstream through the
MIU to the IGMP-enabled switch.

4. The IGMP-enabled Switch “snoops” for the IGMP messages and
builds a mapping of IP Multicast streams to its Ethernet port inter­faces.

5. The Switch forwards the IGMP report on behalf of the IP Multicast
client to the upstream Multicast Router.

6. The Multicast Router utilizes a multicast routing protocol (such as
MOSPF, DVMRP, etc.) to route available multicast streams.

7. Once the IP Multicast stream is received at the IGMP-enabled
Switch, it replicates and forwards the packets on all ports with
active members of that IP Multicast group.

8. The 10306 replicates and forwards IP Multicast streams ONLY to
the ports with subscribing clients.

9. When the member clients issues an IGMP Leave, the 10306
receives that message, forwards it to the upstream IGMP-enabled
Switch, and then generates a series of “quick query” packets on the
downstream port (default response time of 100 milliseconds,
repeated 3 times.) This query will allow the 10306 modem to deter­mine if there are any remaining client members of the IP Multicast
group being left on that port, such as a second set-top box. If no
IGMP Group Membership response is received, the 10306 modem
will update the IP Multicast bridge table and no longer forward that
IP Multicast stream to that port.

10. The query response time value and number of quick queries sent
are provisionable parameters, and can be adjusted to better interop­erate with a variety of client devices, such as IP television set-top
boxes. Refer to the StormT racker -Site Manager and Administration
User Guide for more information.

11. The 10306 modem relies on an upstream IGMP enabled router or
switch to send Group Membership query messages.

WAN Interface Card Specifications

The BitStorm 1900 system supports the MIU (Management Interface
Unit) WAN interface.

MIU (Management Interface Unit)

The MIU is the recommended WAN interface for the BitStorm 1900.
Seated next to the modem cards, the MIU processes Ether net traf fic an d
manages modems. The MIU provides powerful management
capabilities including SNMP and the flexiblit y of mixing and matc hing
modem cards for varied configurations.

The primary functions of the MIU are Ethernet Pass-Thru and Modem
Management/Auto-Discovery/Auto-Provisioning. When initialized, the
MIU automatically discovers and auto-provisions modems, on its shelf,
by writing a Shelf ID for each modem card in the shelf via an out-of­band I²C configuration channel. Thereafter, the assigned modems will
only respond to commands from the associated MIU via the in-band
Ethernet connection.

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

Modem parameters can also be set in the Add/Search modem links
of the Database module in Site Manager.

The MIU communicates with the Site Manager or EMS, via TCP/IP,
which extends the flexibility of remote equipment location(s) and
network management. Each MIU requires only one
MIU IP address) to manage all modems within a shelf. The MIU uses
the Modex Daemon protocol to communicate directly with EtherLoop
CO and CPE modems.

An SNMP agent has been incorporated into the MIU which allows
SNMP PC programs such as the StormTracker EMS 2.x or Castle
Rock’s SNMPc to manage the MIU and EtherLoop modems. The
SNMP MIBs, including MIB II RFC 1213 and the EtherLoop MIB, are
listed in document 1900-A2-GK40, BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM
Supported SNMP MIBs. MIBs are available from the Paradyne website
at www.paradyne.com.

Low-Pass Filter Specifications

Filter Shelf

Low-Pass filters are used with the BitStorm 1900 in EtherLoop
applications where voice service is required. The low-pass filter cards
separate out-of-voiceband signals from the voiceband traffic between
the BitStorm modems and the external voice facility equipment. The
Low-Pass Filter Shelf contains one filter card for every two 10306
modem cards, or two filter cards for every 10224 modem card.

The filter shelf connects to the distribution frame, designed to minimize
signal interference and facilitate broadband connectivity by isolating
Digital Service Units (DSUs) from the Private Branch Exchange
(PBX). Refer to Figure 1-11 on page 30 for Filter Shelf Specifications.

Filter 66-Block

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

The Filter 66-Block provides the same function as the filter shelf,
however, it is a space saving and economical alternative to the filter
shelf for large enterprise installations. Refer to Figure 1-11 on page 30
