General Safety Instructions

The following instructions serve as a general guide for the safe installation and operation of
telecommunications products. Additional instructions, if applicable, are included inside the manual.

Safety Symbols

This symbol may appear on the equipment or in the text. It indicates
potential safety hazards regarding product operation or maintenance to
operator or service personnel.

Warning

Danger of electric shock! Avoid any contact with the marked surface while
the product is energized or connected to outdoor telecommunication lines.

.

Warning

Protective earth: the marked lug or terminal should be connected to the building
protective earth bus.

Some products may be equipped with a laser diode. In such cases, a label
with the laser class and other warnings as applicable will be attached near
the optical transmitter. The laser warning symbol may be also attached.
Please observe the following precautions:

• Before turning on the equipment, make sure that the fiber optic cable is
intact and is connected to the transmitter.

• Do not attempt to adjust the laser drive current.

• Do not use broken or unterminated fiber-optic cables/connectors or look

straight at the laser beam.

• The use of optical devices with the equipment will increase eye hazard.

• Use of controls, adjustments or performing procedures other than those

specified herein, may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

ATTENTION: The laser beam may be invisible!

Always observe standard safety precautions during installation, operation and maintenance of this
product. Only qualified and authorized service personnel should carry out adjustment, maintenance or
repairs to this product. No installation, adjustment, maintenance or repairs should be performed by
either the operator or the user.

Handling Energized Products

General Safety Practices

Do not touch or tamper with the power supply when the power cord is connected. Line voltages may
be present inside certain products even when the power switch (if installed) is in the OFF position or a
fuse is blown. For DC-powered products, although the voltages levels are usually not hazardous,
energy hazards may still exist.

Before working on equipment connected to power lines or telecommunication lines, remove jewelry
or any other metallic object that may come into contact with energized parts.

Unless otherwise specified, all products are intended to be grounded during normal use. Grounding is
provided by connecting the mains plug to a wall socket with a protective earth terminal. If an earth lug
is provided on the product, it should be connected to the protective earth at all times, by a wire with a
diameter of 18 AWG or wider. Rack-mounted equipment should be mounted only in earthed racks
and cabinets.

Always make the ground connection first and disconnect it last. Do not connect telecommunication
cables to ungrounded equipment. Make sure that all other cables are disconnected before
disconnecting the ground.

Connection of AC Mains

Make sure that the electrical installation complies with local codes.

Always connect the AC plug to a wall socket with a protective ground.

The maximum permissible current capability of the branch distribution circuit that supplies power to
the product is 16A. The circuit breaker in the building installation should have high breaking capacity
and must operate at short-circuit current exceeding 35A.

Always connect the power cord first to the equipment and then to the wall socket. If a power switch is
provided in the equipment, set it to the OFF position. If the power cord cannot be readily
disconnected in case of emergency, make sure that a readily accessible circuit breaker or emergency
switch is installed in the building installation.

Connection of DC Mains

Unless otherwise specified in the manual, the DC input to the equipment is floating in reference to the
ground. Any single pole can be externally grounded.

Due to the high current capability of DC mains systems, care should be taken when connecting the DC
supply to avoid short-circuits and fire hazards.

DC units should be installed in a restricted access area, i.e. an area where access is authorized only to
qualified service and maintenance personnel.

Make sure that the DC supply is electrically isolated from any AC source and that the installation
complies with the local codes.

The maximum permissible current capability of the branch distribution circuit that supplies power to
the product is 16A. The circuit breaker in the building installation should have high breaking capacity
and must operate at short-circuit current exceeding 35A.

Before connecting the DC supply wires, ensure that power is removed form the DC circuit. Locate the
circuit breaker of the panel board that services the equipment and switch it to the OFF position. When
connecting the DC supply wires, first connect the ground wire to the corresponding terminal, then the
positive pole and last the negative pole. Switch the circuit breaker back to the ON position.

A readily accessible disconnect device that is suitably rated and approved should be incorporated in
the building installation.

Connection of Data and Telecommunications Cables

Data and telecommunication interfaces are classified according to their safety status.

The following table lists the status of several standard interfaces. If the status of a given port differs from
the standard one, a notice will be given in the manual.

Ports Safety Status

V.11, V.28, V.35, V.36, RS-530,
X.21, 10 BaseT, 100 BaseT,
Unbalanced E1, E2, E3, STM, DS-2,
DS-3, S-Interface ISDN, Analog voice
E&M

xDSL (without feeding voltage),
Balanced E1, T1, Sub E1/T1

FXS (Foreign Exchange Subscriber) TNV-2 Telecommunication Network Voltage-2:

FXO (Foreign Exchange Office), xDSL
(with feeding voltage), U-Interface
ISDN

SELV Safety Extra Low Voltage:

Ports which do not present a safety hazard. Usually
up to 30 VAC or 60 VDC.

TNV-1 Telecommunication Network Voltage-1:

Ports whose normal operating voltage is within the
limits of SELV, on which overvoltages from
telecommunications networks are possible.

Ports whose normal operating voltage exceeds the
limits of SELV (usually up to 120 VDC or telephone
ringing voltages), on which overvoltages from
telecommunication networks are not possible. These
ports are not permitted to be directly connected to
external telephone and data lines.

TNV-3 Telecommunication Network Voltage-3:

Ports whose normal operating voltage exceeds the
limits of SELV (usually up to 120 VDC or telephone
ringing voltages), on which overvoltages from
telecommunication networks are possible.

Always connect a given port to a port of the same safety status. If in doubt, seek the assistance of a
qualified safety engineer.

Always make sure that the equipment is grounded before connecting telecommunication cables. Do
not disconnect the ground connection before disconnecting all telecommunications cables.

Some SELV and non-SELV circuits use the same connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
Extra caution should be exercised during thunderstorms.

When using shielded or coaxial cables, verify that there is a good ground connection at both ends. The
earthing and bonding of the ground connections should comply with the local codes.

The telecommunication wiring in the building may be damaged or present a fire hazard in case of
contact between exposed external wires and the AC power lines. In order to reduce the risk, there are
restrictions on the diameter of wires in the telecom cables, between the equipment and the mating
connectors.

A

n

Caution

To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cords.

ttentio

Pour réduire les risques s’incendie, utiliser seulement des conducteurs de
télécommunications 26 AWG ou de section supérieure.

Some ports are suitable for connection to intra-building or non-exposed wiring or cabling only. In such
cases, a notice will be given in the installation instructions.

Do not attempt to tamper with any carrier-provided equipment or connection hardware.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

The equipment is designed and approved to comply with the electromagnetic regulations of major
regulatory bodies. The following instructions may enhance the performance of the equipment and will
provide better protection against excessive emission and better immunity against disturbances.

A good earth connection is essential. When installing the equipment in a rack, make sure to remove all
traces of paint from the mounting points. Use suitable lock-washers and torque. If an external
grounding lug is provided, connect it to the earth bus using braided wire as short as possible.

The equipment is designed to comply with EMC requirements when connecting it with unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) cables. However, the use of shielded wires is always recommended, especially for
high-rate data. In some cases, when unshielded wires are used, ferrite cores should be installed on
certain cables. In such cases, special instructions are provided in the manual.

Disconnect all wires which are not in permanent use, such as cables used for one-time configuration.

The compliance of the equipment with the regulations for conducted emission on the data lines is
dependent on the cable quality. The emission is tested for UTP with 80 dB longitudinal conversion loss
(LCL).

Unless otherwise specified or described in the manual, TNV-1 and TNV-3 ports provide secondary
protection against surges on the data lines. Primary protectors should be provided in the building
installation.

The equipment is designed to provide adequate protection against electro-static discharge (ESD).
However, it is good working practice to use caution when connecting cables terminated with plastic
connectors (without a grounded metal hood, such as flat cables) to sensitive data lines. Before
connecting such cables, discharge yourself by touching earth ground or wear an ESD preventive wrist
strap.

Figure 1-4. FCD-IPM Functional Block Diagram

FCD-IPM can be ordered in several configuration options. The main link is always
E1/T1 (E1 over SHDSL), and there is always at least one LAN link. The other
interfaces may be a sub E1/T1 link, analog voice, ISDN backup, n x 64 data port,
or router port.

Main Link and Sublink Characteristics

The FCD-IPM E1 main and sublink meet the requirements of ITU-T Rec. G.703,
G.704, G.706, G.732, and G.823, and support 256N and 256S multiframes
(2 or 16 frames per multiframe, respectively), in accordance with ITU-T Rec.
G.704. For FCD-IPM T1 versions the main and sublink comply to AT&T TR62411
and ANSI T1.403 standards, and support D4 and ESF framing.

The framed mode and use of the CRC-4 function are user-selectable.

1-6 Functional Description

FCD-IPM Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction

The main and sublinks have two line interfaces:

• 120Ω balanced line interface, terminated in an RJ-48C eight-pin (ISO 10173)
connector

• 75Ω unbalanced interface, terminated in two BNC coaxial connectors

• T1 versions have a 100Ω balanced interface.

You can select the E1 interface to activate the LTU option. With the T1 version,
you can choose to activate CSU or DSU.

When a power failure occurs, the failsafe bypass of the sub E1/T1 link ensures the
continuity of voice services between the main and the fix sublink.

Note

The fail-safe bypass of the E1/T1 sub-link is not available for the FCD-IPM units
equipped with SHDSL interface.

E1 over SHDSL

E1 traffic can also be transmitted using 2-wire SHDSL physical interface. The
SHDSL link uses TC-PAM technology and complies with the requirements of the
ITU-T G.991.2 standard. Table 1-1 lists typical FCD-IPM ranges over 2-wire
24 AWG line.

Integrated Router

IP Router

FCD-IPM as an IP router supports:

• Static IP net configuration

• Dynamic IP net learning using RIP and RIP-2 protocols

• CIDR topologies

• Multiple IP nets on the LAN

• Numbered and unnumbered interfaces

• IP fragmentation

• RIP1, RIP2 & OSPF Routing Protocols.

IPX Router

FCD-IPM also supports standard IPX routing that includes support for RIP and SAP.

Bridging

FCD-IPM supports bridging. The bridge is used to interconnect a number of LANs
by accessing layer 2 (MAC layer). FCD-IPM automatically extends the scope of any
interface, allowing the interface to interconnect several networks, providing that all
supported interfaces are set to bridge mode.

1-8 Functional Description

FCD-IPM Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction

FCD-IPM interconnects:

• Any LAN to link

• Two LANs of the same Bridge

• Two LANs and link.

FCD-IPM interconnects all of its interfaces to one extended LAN.

FCD-IPM supports standard bridging, as specified in IEEE 802.1D, and can operate
opposite any other third party bridge. Spanning Tree Algorithm is not supported.
Bridging works over PPP, Frame Relay RFC-1490 and also a ‘Native’ protocol.
MAC frames pass in an HDLC format.

Protocols

FCD-IPM supports:

• PPP (Point to Point Protocol) – this protocol supports a variety of links and
connection options

• Frame Relay – a network interface, which provides high-speed frame or packet
transmission with minimum delay and maximum bandwidth utilization.

Management

FCD-IPM features a variety of inband and out-of-band management options. These
options include dedicated time slot, dedicated DLCI, and dial-in connectivity.

You can manage the following capabilities:

• FCD-IPM configuration

• Viewing FCD-IPM status

• Testing FCD-IPM

• Viewing alarm status and history.

The management functions are performed via:

• SNMP management – enables management using the RADview or any other
standard SNMP-based management systems.

• Telnet – enables a remote IP host to control the operation of FCD-IPM using
functions identical to those provided by a supervision terminal.

• Supervision terminal – an ASCII terminal connected to the RS-232 control port
of FCD-IPM (or a PC running a terminal emulation program) can be used as a
supervision terminal.

Undesired access to FCD-IPM via Telnet or SNMP can be blocked by the firewall,
or password protected. The dual-level management authentication allows access to
router configuration parameters while restricting the access to network
configuration parameters.

Functional Description 1-9

Chapter 1 Introduction FCD-IPM Installation and Operation Manual

Software download is available via the control port using XMODEM and via
LAN/WAN using TFTP. Parameter file download and upload is available via LAN or
WAN using TFTP.

FCD-IPM has an alarm history memory that holds the up to 100 alarms.

Management Using Dedicated Time Slot (DTS)

FCD-IPM features out-of-band management through a dedicated time slot.

The DTS is a management channel that connects directly to the FCD-IPM host
using a separate IP interface, i.e. address, and operates as an additional WAN
interface connected to the management IP network.

This management channel is totally separated from the IP traffic that the integrated
router forwards, so there is no way to expose the manager IP network to
unauthorized IP users.

The DTS channel should be synchronized with other equipment such as a cross
connect unit or router. This can be done with standard WAN protocols such as
Frame Relay and PPP.

Protocol

PPP

RFC-1490

Point to Point Protocol. PPP consists of 3 components:
Encapsulation method – for IP datagrams on a serial link PPP supports HDLC
synchronous links.
LCP – Link control procedure to establish, configure, and test the data-link
connection. Having an LCP allows each end to negotiate various options.
NCP(s) – A family of network control protocols specific to different network layer
protocols. The NCPs allow each end to configure network control parameters.

PPP is often used across slow serial lines. It is therefore important to reduce the
number of bytes per frame in order to reduce the latency time. Using LCP, most
implementations negotiate to omitting the constant address and control fields and
reducing the size of the protocol fields from 2 bytes to 1 byte. In addition, when
using IP NCP, most implementations use Van Jacobson header compression to
reduce the size of IP and TCP headers.

Encapsulation method for carrying network interconnect traffic over a Frame
Relay backbone. RFC-1490 also supports a simple fragmentation procedure for
carrying large frames over a frame relay network with a smaller MTU.
DLCI – Every network interface card (NIC) has a Data Link Communication
Identifier (DLCI) that uniquely identifies the node on the network. DLCI enables
connection to the Frame Relay network without configuring Frame Relay
parameters.
DLCI executes congestion control when an explicit congestion notification is
received for the DLCI from the Frame Relay network. The unit reduces the
transmitted information rate of the DLCI and increases it when the congestion
condition is cleared.
Default : PPP

DLCI Number Sets the DLCI identification number.

Select this parameter to set the routing option.

Note: This parameter appears for the 2-LAN device only.

Select this parameter to enter the IP address. Every device on
a TCP/IP network must have an identification address. The IP
address is a value consisting of the network address and the
host address on that network. The value assigned to a
network depends on the number of computers on that
network.
The IP address is a 32-bit number. The number consists of 4
parts, where each part consists of 3 digits. One part of the
address identifies the network and another part of the
address identifies the host. The numbers in the address,
which identifies the host, depend on the class.
There are 5 classes of IP addresses. Each class represents a
network having a certain number of computers. For example,
a Class C address is given to a network having between 1 to
255 computers.
The numbers in each part of the code are translated into
binary. The binary code identifies the network and the host.
IP addresses are assigned by the Internet Network
Information Center (InterNIC). InterNIC assigns the network
ID. Host IDs are assigned by the network administrator.

LAN IP Mask Select this parameter to enter the IP mask. The mask is

configured automatically from the IP address class. If you want
to change the default mask, enter a new mask. For example,
the IP mask is usually 225.225.225.0. A mask like this would
allow 254 hosts on the LAN. If you want to create a subnet,
which allows 6 users, including FCD-IPM, configure the mask
as 225.225.225.248. on FCD-IPM, as well as each host
included on the subnet (refer to Figure 4-4).

Parameters Possible Values Description

Default Gateway
Setting

Select this parameter to set the Default Gateway configuration

(see Figure 4-4). The default gateway is the address to which
frames are sent, if no other address is defined in the routing
table.
The default gateway can be an IP address or a WAN interface.
If you choose to use an IP address, enter the address of the
router, which will deliver the frames. Specifying an IP address
for the default gateway is done with shared media, such as LAN
interface. If you choose to use a WAN interface, the connection
to the router is point-to-point. Choose by interface and enter
interface/DLCI number (for Frame Relay).

Warning: It is very important to obtain the correct parameters
from the system administrator or ISP. The most common
problem when establishing an IP connection is incorrect
configuration of the IP parameters and Default Gateway. Do not
try to guess these parameters.

Firewall Option

Solid Firewall is a rule-based security mechanism, which monitors incoming and
outgoing traffic and allows or restricts access according to the user-defined criteria
(rules).

You can configure the Solid Firewall to monitor incoming or outgoing traffic on any
WAN and LAN link. The firewall blocks all traffic coming from the unprotected
network segment to the protected section, and allows traffic from protected to
unprotected segments. Only those applications that are enabled via the application
list (e.g. HTTP, FTP, POP3 servers, etc.) are allowed for use. By default, the Solid
Firewall is disabled.



To select the Solid Firewall interface and direction:

1. From the Main menu, select option 2, Security Setup.

Select this option to display error information for the E1/T1 link. This information
enables you to evaluate the line quality. The errors are accumulated in 15-minute
intervals. FCD-IPM keeps up to 96 intervals (for 24 hours).

In addition, there is a rolling 24 hour total of each error parameter. The rolling
total is displayed for the interval parameter called TOTAL. The interval parameter
called CURRENT is the open interval, which did not yet reach 15 minutes. The
errors counted in the CURRENT interval are not included in the TOTAL interval.
The amount of time that has elapsed is displayed on the right of the CURRENT
parameter line. T1 diagnostics are available only when frame mode is ESF. E1
diagnostics are available only when CRC-4 is enabled.

Every device on a TCP/IP network must have an address
for identification. The IP address is a value consisting of
the network address and the host address on that
network. The value assigned to a network depends on
the number of computers on that network.
The IP address is a 32-bit number. The number is made
up of 4 parts, with each part consisting of 3 digits. One
part of the address identifies the network and another
part of the address identifies the host. The numbers in
the address, which identify the host, are dependent on
the class.
There are 5 classes of IP addresses. Each class represents
a network having a certain number of computers. For
example, a Class C address is given to a network having
between 1 to 255 computers.
The numbers in each part of the code are translated
into binary code, which identifies the network and the
host.
IP addresses are assigned by the Internet Network
Information Center (InterNIC). InterNIC assigns the
network ID. Host IDs are assigned by the network
administrator.

A subnet is a portion of a network that shares a
common address component. On TCP/IP networks,
subnets are defined as all devices whose IP addresses
have the same prefix. For example, all devices whose IP
addresses begin with 133.100.100. are part of the same
subnet. An IP mask allows you to filter IP addresses on a
subnet. When an IP address is configured, the IP mask is
automatically configured according to the Class of the IP
Network.
Note: The default IP mask can be edited.

Default Gateway

The default gateway defines where frames will be sent,
if no explicit routing is defined in the routing table.
The default gateway can be an IP address or a WAN
interface. If you choose to use an IP address, enter the
address of the router that will deliver the frames.
Specifying an IP address for the default gateway is done
with shared media, such as LAN interface.
If you choose to use a WAN interface, the connection
to the router is point-to-point. Choose by interface and
enter the interface/DLCI number.

Note

It is very important to obtain the correct parameters from the system administrator
or ISP. The most common problem when establishing an IP connection is incorrect
configuration of the IP parameters and default gateway. Do not try to guess these
parameters.

Select this option to add, clear or delete parameters from the manager table. The
manager table lists the SNMP manager IP addresses and masks. Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) manager IP address is the IP of the management
station, which the traps are sent to (NMS). To send traps to that NMS, set the mask
parameter to YES.
SNMP is an application-layer protocol designed to facilitate the exchange of
management information between network devices. By using SNMP to access
management information data (such as packets per second and network error
rates), network administrators can more easily manage network performance and
find and solve network problems.

TFTP

Figure 5-9. TFTP Menu

TFTP is a simple file transfer protocol running over IP that permits unsecured and
unauthorized file exchange over the Internet/Intranet. TFTP is widely used to
upgrade software and configuration parameters for various standalone units. TFTP
is a client-server type protocol; FCD-IPM operates as the TFTP client. In order to
use the TFTP-based features of FCD-IPM you need TFTP server software running
on some of your PCs.
This screen permits you to configure common TFTP session parameters that are
used for software upgrades and upload/download features.

RADIUS

Press the number to edit value or ESC to return to the previous screen:

Figure 5-11. RADIUS Menu

The RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is a client/server
security protocol. Security information is stored in a central location, known as the
RADIUS server. RADIUS clients, such as FCD-IPM, communicate with the RADIUS
server to authenticate users. Although the term RADIUS refers to the network
protocol that the client and server use to communicate, it is often used to refer to
the entire client/server system.
The three main functions of RADIUS are:

• Authentication

• Authorization

• Accounting.

To perform these functions, you must configure the parameters described in

Table 5-4.
