Chapter 1: Introduction
The SHARK™ IAD
WHY SHARK™
IAD?
Integrated access has reached a new level of simplicity and functionality with
the SHARK™ IAD from XEL Communications. The SHARK™ IAD enables
service providers to deliver voice, high-speed data, Internet access and
networking connections to end customers over a single network connection. Its
modular design allows for migration to emerging technologies and services, such
as voice over packet. This results in the complete utilization of a service
provider's initial investment to its maximum potential. See Figure 1.
The demand for integrated delivery and access to voice and data services
continues to grow at a rapid pace, driven by telecommunications carriers’ needs
to reduce transport and service delivery costs and end-users’ needs to simplify
their service requirements while lowering their service costs. Bundled service
offerings and one-stop shopping also allow carriers to attract new customers
while reducing churn with existing customers. The rapid growth of data services
and Internet access has also contributed to make integrated voice and data access
a virtual necessity for modern public networks.
To decrease the risk carriers take in deploying equipment to customers, the
SHARK™ IAD was designed to be fully modular which results in a flexible
system that is easily modified as customers’ needs change. A carrier can
upgrade or remove services to meet the customers’ needs, which reduces the
potential for a stranded investment. The SHARK™ IAD is truly a "Pay as you
go!" platform.

INTEGRATED
ACCESS DEVICE
(IAD)
Integrated
Trouble-free
Through its dual T1 DSX/CSU network interfaces the SHARK™ IAD can
support up to 3 Mbps of integrated voice and data. To provide added bandwidth,
two additional T1 modules can be inserted into the LAN slots as add/drop
multiplexed T1s for access to a PBX or other CPE device. The WAN T1s
support TR08 Mode 1 operation that enables the SHARK™ IAD to integrate
directly into a voice switch, lowering a carrier's cost. SF and ESF are supported
as well. The data services on the T1 may be groomed at the central office and
then be directed to their appropriate backbone networks.
The SHARK™ IAD provides an integrated Digital Cross Connect that controls
the flow of the DS0s from the network T1’s to either voice or data interfaces.
The voice capabilities include up to 24 analog voice circuits and a T1 digital
voice connection for PBX integration. The SHARK™ IAD supports one 10/100
BaseT, multiple T1 CSU/DSU, and multiple V.35 interfaces. Both IP and Frame
Relay are supported. The router is an IP router. You can use Frame Relay or
PPP as a Data link Transport Layer over the WAN link.
The integrated architecture of the SHARK™ IAD makes it easy to setup and
maintain either locally through its craft port or remotely via a WEB Browser/IP
connection through the WAN or 10/100 BaseT (Fether) interface. The entire
SHARK™ IAD system can be configured via one of its many management
interfaces. Whether you choose the GUI (HTTP) or the CLI (RS232 or Telnet)
interfaces, the SHARK™ IAD will fit into your provisioning and monitoring
management architecture. The SHARK™ IAD can be configured remotely or
by the local craft port on the SHARK™ IAD chassis. Both allow for full access
to all of the SHARK™ IAD's services and features.
NOTE: The GUI (HTTP) can only be used over the WAN and
10/100 BaseT interfaces. The Craft (RS232) and Facility Data
Link (FDL) ports do not support the GUI.
In addition, the SHARK™ IAD has an integral full-featured IP router that
enables carriers to provide customers with a fully manageable LAN in addition
to network interfaces. The router was designed for easy provisioning and
security through its DHCP and NAT features. Also, the router has an integrated
Frame Relay Assembler/Dissembler (FRAD) that is able to handle any frame
relay traffic from the network and hand IP off to the customer's Ethernet LAN.

HOW THE SHARK™ IAD DOES IT
Chapter 1: Introduction
Functional
Description
The T1 Interfaces
The Digital Cross
Connect
Functional block diagram Figure 2 shows how all these capabilities are
combined into one integrated platform. This modular unit flexibly provides
multiple services to the end user while providing the carrier multiple options for
interconnection and transport back into the CO.
The functional block diagram shows two T1 interfaces for the unit. One T1 is
used as the primary network interface providing service to the unit from the CO.
This interface is designed to support T1 interface options of DSX or CSU
interfaces.
The second T1 interface may be used to support multiple functions as well as
multiple T1 interface options.
This T1 may be used for:
• Network access to the CO (thus providing two full T1’s of bandwidth back
into the network).Add-drop multiplexing of DS0s from the primary T1
interface to serve additional remote services or units.
In the center of the block diagram is the Digital Cross-Connect function. This
function performs add-drop multiplexing of DS0s between the primary and the
secondary T1 interface and mapping of various local-side channels (such as
voice and data) into the primary and secondary T1 DS0s. It is also responsible
for establishing internal reference timing. This cross-connect switch DS0s
between multiple interfaces.
The Network
Management
The Network Management function is responsible for providing status
monitoring, fault detection, alarm management, provisioning and configuration,
and performance monitoring.
Access to the network management function is provided via several avenues:
• An RS-232-compatible port on the front panel for local management using a
standard VT100 type terminal or remotely through an external dial up
modem.
• IP connectivity via the IP Router or WAN modules to the Network
Operations Center (NOC).
The IP Router block provides IP routing among CO data paths and one data
interface.
In addition to basic IP routing, the IP Router provides Network Address
Translation (NAT), proxy DNS and DHCP services to LANs. As an IP router it
will route any protocol tunneled within IP packets (though this may necessitate
disabling Network Address Translation). Also basic FRAD functionality is
included in the router. IP packets from the LAN interfaces are
assembled/disassembled into frames, sent to the WAN port and eventually a
carrier's Frame Relay Network.
Chapter 1-8XEL P/N & Release: 9SA-USRS-9.0R1.02SHARK™ IAD User's Guide
Chapter 1: Introduction
The Data Interface
The Voice Interface
Conclusion
There is one 10/100BaseT data interface for the LAN side of the router. There
are two slots for additional LAN side interfaces that may be any combination of
T1 or V.35 interfaces.
The SHARK™ IAD can accommodate up to three voice module slots, each
supporting eight analog voice circuits. Thus up to 24 total analog voice access
circuits can be supported, upgraded in increments of eight. The current
interfaces are the FXS/DPO and FXO/DPT modules.
Voice modules are optional. Should the end user have no need for analog voice
circuits (either because they need only data or has a digital interface to their
PBX), no modules will need to be installed.
Taken as a whole, XEL's SHARK™ IAD provides flexible voice and data
service delivery for carriers and end-users, meeting multiple applications,
requirements and providing cost-effective service migration as requirements
evolve.

INSTALLATION
OPTIONS
INSTALLING THE
MODULES
XEL's SHARK™ Integrated Access Device is a 2U high (3.5”) X 17.5” wide X
13” deep integrated bank that may be installed in any of three methods. This
chapter will cover the installation of the chassis and modules. Sixteen and a half
inches is the SHARK™ IAD’s overall front to back depth once installed
including all cabling and connector housings. For office applications the unit
comes with mounting feet to set on a desktop. See page 2-4 of this chapter for
tabletop mounting details. For large telephone rooms in which racks are already
installed, the SHARK™ IAD can be rack mounted in a 19 or 23 inch rack. In this
configuration, multiple SHARK™ IADs can be mounted in a single rack. See
page 2-6 of this chapter for rack mounting details. For small telephone closets
with limited space, the SHARK™ IAD can be wall mounted, in which case the
unit can be outfitted with hinges so that it will swing away from the wall for
service. Then the unit can be secured flat against the wall for space savings. See
page 2-8 of this chapter for wall mount details. For cable descriptions see the
cable chapter of the installation section. For connector pinouts by module, see the
hardware specification chapter.
All mounting and securing should be performed before the modules are inserted
into the unit. The SHARK™ IAD chassis has three rows of three slots in which
to install modules. Each module has a steel faceplate that makes electrical
contact to the chassis. The module is seated into its slot by placing firm pressure
on the center of the faceplate. All faceplates have two metal thumb screws with
which to secure the module into place. These thumbscrews ensure electrical
connection to the chassis and secure the module in place once it has been seated
into position. They are also an integral part of the chassis EMI protection
scheme. Be sure the module is fully seated into position before securing the
thumbscrews. The thumbscrews are not intended to seat the module. Be sure the
thumbscrews are completely loosened before attempting to remove the modules.
See Chapter 3 Cable Guide for cable pinouts. The pinouts for the connectors on
each module are listed in the "hardware specifications" section of this manual.

As shown in Figure 1, the three slots on the left-hand side are the local voice
interface slots of the unit. They are referred to in the configuration menus as
VOICE-1, VOICE-2 and VOICE-3. These are reserved exclusively for voice
modules. Only voice modules will physically fit in these slots, as they are
slightly wider than the others are. The next three slots are used for the Cross
connect and WAN modules. Although the Cross connect and WAN modules are
physically the same size, only the upper of these slot is keyed to allow insertion
of the Cross connect module. The Cross connect module is referred to in the
configuration menus as XCON. The lower two slots are used for the T1 WAN
interface modules. The slots are referred to as WAN-1 and WAN-2 by the
configuration menus. The three slots next to the power module are used for the
Router module and Local LAN T1 modules. Insert the Router module into the
upper slot. The lower two slots are for the Local T1 LAN interface and for the
V.35 interface. These two are referred to as LAN-1 and LAN-2 by the
configuration menus. All Voice, WAN, and LAN interface modules are hot
swappable.

As shown in Figure 2, the SHARK™ IAD can simply set on a desk or tabletop.
With this option, the SHARK™ IAD does not need any special mounting
hardware. Mounting feet are supplied with the unit to allow space underneath it
for cooling purposes. Route the Voice module cables along the left side and
secure them to the desktop. This will provide stress relief for the voice
connectors. Route all other cabling along the right side. This will allow
maximum unrestricted access to the front of the unit. Do not route or secure any
cabling on top of the unit. This may obstruct the vent holes on the top of the
unit. Do not place anything on top of or obstruct the venting holes in any other
way. When mounting multiple units in this configuration a minimum spacing of
1U (1.75”) must be maintained between units for proper convection airflow. If it
is necessary to stack multiple units on a shelf or desk/table top, the spacing from
the top of each unit to the top of the next unit below it or above it must be at
least a 3U (5.25”) spacing to provide proper ventilation. The unit’s mounting
feet are not long enough to provide the necessary space between units when they
are stacked on top of each other.

The SHARK™
IAD Universal
Mounting Bracket
Figure 3 shows the SHARK™ IAD mounted in a rack. The supplied mounting
brackets enable the unit to be mounted in a 19” or 23” rack. When mounting
multiple units in this configuration suitable spacing must be maintained for proper
convection airflow. The total vertical area for the unit must be at least a 3U
(5.25”) spacing to provide proper airflow. Route the Voice module cabling along
the left side and secure the cables to the rack to provide stress relief on the voice
connectors. Route all other cabling along the right side. This will allow
maximum access to the front of the unit.
The SHARK™ IAD universal mounting bracket is used to secure the unit either to
the rack rails in the case of rack mounting or to the wall when a unit is wall
mounted. This bracket can be installed in any of three positions depending on the
mounting configuration. Installation for 19” and 23” rack configurations are
covered here. See page 2-7 of this chapter for its use in wall mounting
configurations.
The detail of Figure 3 shows a partial side and front view of a rack mounted unit.
Configuration one of this view shows the bracket installed for a 19“ rack. The
longer side of the bracket is placed flat against the unit. The two oval holes on the
short side are used to mount the entire assembly to the 19” rack rails.
Configuration two shows the bracket installed for a 23” rack. In this case, the
short side of the bracket is mounted against the side of the unit. The oval holes on
the edge of the longer side are used to mount the entire assembly to the 23” rack.

WALL
MOUNTING
ABOUT
GROUNDING
Figure 4 shows the SHARK™ IAD unit mounted to a wall which requires the
special mounting hinge (which must be ordered separately, see Figure 5) and
hardware supplied with the unit. Be sure that the mounting board onto which the
unit is mounted is at least 3/4 inches thick. Use Size 12 pan head screw
minimum length of 3/4 inch to secure the unit to the mounting board. Mount the
unit as shown in Figure 4.
Route the cabling along the rear of the unit near the hinges. Secure the cables to
the wall and the unit as shown in Figure 4. Do not obstruct the vent holes on
upper side of the unit with the cabling. Be sure to provide service loops in the
cable to allow the cabling to swing away from the wall with the unit. This will
provide stress relief for the cables when the unit is swung away from the wall.
Routing the cables in this manner allows the cables to twist near the hinges along
the width of the unit.
Any other routing method may force the cables to bend causing metal fatigue of
the conductors. Dressing the cable bundles in this manner will also allow
maximum unrestricted access to the front of the unit.
If the AC/DC converter is required, mount it to the mounting board using
number 10 pan head screws that are a minimum length of 3/4 inch.
To ensure proper EMI shielding, the grounding scheme must be taken into
serious consideration when installing the SHARK™ IAD. The unit is equipped
with a threaded grounding lug. For ALL installations, this grounding lug must
be attached to facility chassis or safety ground. The grounding lug is located on
the rear of the unit.

ABOUT
SHARK™ IAD
The integrated architecture of the SHARK™ IAD makes it easy to setup and
maintain either locally through its craft port or remotely via a WEB Browser or
Telnet session through the WAN or 10/100 BaseT (Fether) interface. The entire
SHARK™ IAD system can be configured via one of its many management
interfaces. Whether you choose the Graphical User Interface (GUI) or
Command Line Interface (CLI) interface, the SHARK™ IAD will fit into your
provisioning and monitoring management architecture. The SHARK™ IAD can
be configured remotely or by the local console port on the chassis. Both allow
for full access to all of the SHARK™ IAD's services and features.
NOTE: The GUI (HTTP) can only be used over
the WAN and 10/100 BaseT interfaces. The
Craft (RS232) and Facility Data Link (FDL)
ports do not support the GUI. Use a terminal or
terminal emulator software on your workstation
to run the CLI from the Craft port. Refer to the
CLI section of this chapter for CLI connectivity
and the CLI chapter of this manual for its use.
When power is first applied to the Shark the
voice cards may output a short burst of ringing
on the 2-Wire FXS circuits.

• Connect to the Ethernet port for a GUI or IP Telnet session.
• Setup workstation to configure the SHARK™ IAD using GUI pages or the
CLI.
Even though the SHARK™ IAD is shipped from the factory with the most
common defaults, there are many functions that are site dependent and must be
set up for your specific application. This chapter will show you how to connect
to the SHARK™ IAD, login, and access its configuration interfaces. Follow the
steps in Figure 1 and associated paragraphs to connect to and start configuring
your SHARK™ IAD. These steps are explained in greater detail in either the
"Graphical User Interface (GUI or WEB) Configuration" chapter or "Using the
Command Line Interface (CLI)" chapter of this manual.

The SHARK™ IAD is sent from the factory with default passwords set. These
default login names and passwords are as follows:
Login Name Password
adminpassword
systempassword

Refer to the detailed instructions on passwords and logging in found in the GUI
and CLI configuration chapters. Proceed to login to your SHARK™ IAD by
following these steps:
The Telnet connection and the RS232 Craft port have a lockout that occurs after
3 failed login attempts. A failed login occurs when the login process does not
return the Shark prompt. The port will not respond to attempts for login for 10
minutes after the third login failure. Each connection or port is treated
independent of the others. If a login attempt fails on a port, the other port and
concurrent sessions, if applicable, will not be affected. The counting of failed
logins will reset to 0 if the Router performs a Coldstart feature, the power to the
Router is temporarily interrupted or a proper login occurs on that port or session.
If another login is not attempted nor any characters sent after the first or the
second failed tries, the counting of failed logins will be set to 0 when the
Keyboard Inactivity Logout timer expires.

A Telnet or RS232 Craft port will be logged out of a connection if the connected
terminal does not send any characters for a period of time that is depicted by the
inactivity timer. The inactivity timer may be set from 0 to 10 minutes in one
minute increments. A setting of 0 minutes defeats the timer and the port does
not log out.
To insure the proper operation of The SHARK™ IAD's real time GUI interface,
disable the page saving feature or "CACHE" of your WEB browser. You may
also need to turn off the feature of searching from the address line. Please refer
to the instructions for your particular WEB browser for performing this task.

Access through a
Console port
You can connect a terminal or terminal emulator to the maintenance console port
to configure, administer, and monitor your SHARK™ IAD. This port is the 9
pin D connector mounted on the Router module's faceplate. To use the
SHARK™ IAD console, you need a serial cable and either a terminal or terminal
emulator (such as a personal computer with a terminal emulation application that
supports 9600-baud communication).
To connect your SHARK™ IAD to a terminal or terminal emulator:
1. Plug the DB-9 end of a serial cable into the maintenance console port on the
Router Module’s DB-9 connector labeled “RS232”.
2. Connect the other end of the serial cable to the serial port on your terminal
(or terminal emulator) or the modem port of your computer.

when prompted by the system. Each line of the stepping mode presents the
allowable parameter options. Then waits for your input. You enter the desired
option using the displayed syntax and press the enter key. The stepper will load
your entry and display the next parameter to be entered. When using the stepper
be sure to keep the "CLI" chapter of this manual as a reference as it explains the
stepping mode and each command in greater detail.
To enter the stepping mode:
1. After you have successfully logged in using either the console port or a telnet
session, enter: Config at the system prompt as shown in Figure 4.
2. Enter set.
The configurator will enter the stepping mode and will wait for your input.
Proceed to configure your SHARK™ IAD.

Graphical User Interface Configuration Pages
CONFIGURATION
INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the SHARK™ IAD's Graphical User Interface (GUI).
This type of interface is commonly referred to as a WEB Browser interface
because it is implemented using an on board WEB Server. To access these
pages you must have a WEB Browser such as Internet Explorer™ or Netscape™
installed on your computer. Internet Explorer™ must be release 4.0 or higher
and the Netscape™ must be release 6.1 or higher. This is not the only interface
with which the SHARK™ IAD can be configured. There is also a Command
Line Interface (CLI) which can be accessed via a local RS232 Craft port or a
telnet session using the SHARK™ IAD's Ethernet port. Refer to the Using theCommand Line Interface (CLI) chapter of this manual for instructions on how to
use the CLI.
We will step through the configuration of the SHARK™ IAD accessing each
configuration page in logical order assuming a first time configuration.
The logical order for a first time configuration of the SHARK™ IAD is as
follows:
1. Establish communications with the SHARK™ IAD unit using the default IP
addresses. See the "Getting Started" chapter for initial connection and
workstation configuration.
2. Configure User Administration such as System name, Passwords, diagnostic
levels, etc.
3. Configure the Cross Connects. This function defines the traffic paths from
the Telco WAN side to the Router, LAN, V.35 Data Modules, and Voice
modules.
4. Configure the WAN T1 interfaces.
5. Configure IP/Router functions:
• The FDL(Facilities Data Link)
• Data pipes through the unit
• IP addresses
• DHCP Server functions
6. Configure all voice interfaces.
Even though these GUI pages can be accessed in a nearly infinitely random
order, this chapter guides you through the configuration process in the above
order. In addition, many of the SHARK™ IAD's pages can only be accessed if
certain parameters are enabled. Once you click on the save button the system
will access the next logical page based on your choices from the page just
configured.

DIGITAL CROSS
CONNECT
XCONMODULE
Assigning the WAN side DS0s to a functional slot performs a Cross Connect
connection. After all the connections have been assigned, the configuration page
for each module must be accessed to complete the set up for each module.
Two types of modules have the cross connect function on them. They are the
XCON and the XC2T Modules. The XCON module provides only the cross
connect feature while the XC2T provides the cross connect plus two T1
interfaces for WAN connections.
Cross Connect connections are assigned through the home/xcon/ configuration
page. From the home page click on the config button of the XCON or the XC2T
modules to display the Cross Connect configuration Page. Figure 13 shows the
selecting of the Cross Connect configuration page from the home page.
On the Cross Connect Configuration page of the XCON module, select the
Module Operational Mode to be operational and then press the Save button. See
Figure 14. This will put the Cross Connect module into the operational mode
and then return the screen to the home page. Again at the home page, click on
the config button of the XCON module to display the Cross Connect
Configuration page. Now select which WAN card the cross connects will
originate from. This will take you to the page to make the cross connects to all
items from the selected WAN card. See Figure 15

data.
•The dashed line: indicates the path that an eight DS0 connection
would traverse from the time slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 and 11 of WAN module 1
to the Voice 1 module for circuits 1 through 8.
•The dash-dot line: • • indicates the path that a four DS0 connection
SHARK™ IAD User's Guide XEL P/N & Release: 9SA-USRS-9.0R1.02Chapter 5-21

would traverse from the time slots 5, 6, 10 and 12 of WAN module 1 to the
Voice 2 module for circuits 9 through 12.
•The dash-dot-dot line: • • • • indicates the path that a four DS0
connection would traverse from the time slots 15 through 18 of WAN
module 1 to the LAN module 1 time slots 13 through 16.
When you have all the cross connections entered, click on the save button. The
SHARK™ IAD will validate the cross connect matrix and will report any errors.
To correct any errors return to the home page and select the config button for the
XCON or XC2T module and then select the appropriate WAN or T1 page to
make the corrects on. Using the error report, proceed to correct the errors you
originally made in the cross connect configuration page. Resave the new
configuration by clicking on the save button of the cross connect page. Repeat
this process until the save returns without errors. When all your errors are
corrected and the Cross Connect page saves cleanly, proceed to Trunk Processing
Configuration Module to configure the trunk processing during a Carrier Group
Alarm (CGA). This is only completed for those connections that have T1 to T1
interface connections. Trunk processing configuration for voice cards is
completed on the voice card configuration page.
TRUNK
PROCESSING
CONFIGURATION
MODULE
XCON MODULE
XC2T M
ODULE
Use this module to program the SHARK™ IAD to correctly process the signaling
of a network trunk side. These parameters need to be programmed for every DS0
that passes from one T1 module through another T1 module.
When using the XCON module, two T1s from the Central Office can be
connected to T1 modules. The T1 circuits on the WAN-1 and WAN-2 may be
groomed, re-bundled and attached to a T1 network connected to T1 modules
installed in the SHARK™ IAD's LAN-1 and LAN-2 modules. Thus, creating the
possibility of 48 DS0s for which signaling parameters must be programmed. The
signaling choices are the same for each DS0.
Up to four T1s from the Central Office can be connected to T1 modules installed
in the SHARK™ IAD when using the XC2T module. There are two ports on the
XC2T module and one each on the WAN-1 and WAN-2 modules. These T1
circuits may be groomed, re-bundled and attached to a T1 network connected to
T1 modules installed in the SHARK™ IAD's LAN-1, LAN-2, WAN-1, WAN-2
and the T1 ports on the XC2T modules. Thus, creating the possibility of 96 DS0s
for which signaling parameters must be programmed. The signaling choices are
the same for each DS0.
EXAMPLE OF CROSS
CONNECTIONS
The Trunk Processing configuration page needs to be completed any time a DS0
from a T1 is not connected to a voice module or TDM data pipe in the router
module. When a connection is made to a voice module the voice module
configuration page controls the trunk processing. Refer to Figure 55 on page 558 and Figure 57 on page 5-60. When a cross connection is made to a TDM data
pipe the information is data, consequently, it does not require trunk processing.
Refer to Figure 15 for the following trunk processing requirements:
Chapter 5-22XEL P/N & Release: 9SA-USRS-9.0R1.02SHARK™ IAD User's Guide
Chapter 5: Graphical User Interface (GUI/WEB) Configuration Pages
1. The connection from WAN1 slots 19 -24 to Router Ch1 slots 1-6 does not
need trunk processing because it is a data path.
2. The trunk processing for the connections from WAN1 to VOICE-1 and
VOICE-2 is configured in the VOICE-1 and VOICE-2 configuration pages.
Trunk processing must be defined for the remaining combinations of connections
made in this example. Refer to Figure 15 and use the page shown in Figure 19 to
configure these trunk processing connections. The page will only show the
following connections that require a selection for the trunk processing.
When using the XCON module:
1. The cross connections from WAN1 to LAN-1 or LAN-2.
2. The cross connections from WAN1 to WAN2.
3. The cross connections from WAN2 to LAN-1 or LAN-2.
When using the XC2T module:
1. The cross connections from WAN1 to LAN-1, LAN-2, T1-1, T1-2 or WAN2.
2. The cross connections from WAN2 to LAN-1, LAN-2, T1-1, T1-2 or WAN1.
3. The cross connections from T1-1 to T1-2, LAN-1, LAN-2, WAN1 or WAN2.

Options are:
• In Band:DisableEnable
• ESF/DLDisableEnable
When the In Band is enabled and Line Build Out is set to DSX, the code of NI
can be detected. When the In Band is enabled and the Line Build Out is set to
CSU, the code of CSU can be detected. The codes of FDL Line, FDL Payload
and FDL Network can be detected when the ESF/DL is enabled and the Line
Build Out is set to either DSX or CSU.
The Line Build Out section of this page will only allow you to use either CSU or
DSX Line Build Out for each module. A CSU and a DSX Build out cannot be
selected at the same time for a module. The DSX and CSU interfaces may be
programmed independently for each module. If an external CSU is used
between a WAN or a T1 of the XC2T module and the NID, use one of the DSX
options in the WAN or XC2T card. If there is not an external CSU between the
NID and the WAN module, program the WAN module's CSU interface by
setting one of the CSU options. See the Line Build Out section of the WAN
configuration page shown in Figure 21 for the possible selections for the DSX

NABLING THE
E
FDL
The Facilities Data Link is a T1 term specifically relating to Extended
SuperFrame (ESF). ESF increases the standard T1 frame from 12 to 24
consecutive frames of information. This allows for a 4 Kbps link to be used for
the FDL. This link supports the communication of various network information
in the form of in-service monitoring and diagnostics.
Setting up the FDL requires the following conditions and setup screens:
• The WAN connection must be in ESF mode.
See WAN setup instructions on page 5-24. Also see Figure 21 and Figure
22.
• Enable the FDL and its source. See Figure 25.
• Determine if the FDL will be the Default Gateway or if it will need a Static
Route assigned.
• Configure the IP parameters for the path that the FDL will use.
See Figure 27 and Figure 30.
The WAN connection that will be the source for the FDL must be in ESF
framing mode. To configure the WAN that the FDL is assigned to, click on the
WAN module's configuration button from the
Home page. Select ESF for the
framing mode and click on the save button. Figure 21 on page 5-26 shows the

If your application requires the default gateway to be used for IP traffic then you
must define a
Static Route for the SNMP traffic. A static route identifies a
manually configured pathway to a remote network. Unlike dynamic routes,
which are acquired and confirmed periodically from other routers, static routes
do not time out. Static Routes are also discussed on page 5-48 where you also
find Table 16 that defines the parameters for the Static Routes configuration
page.

Async mapSpecifies the asynchronous control character map for the PPP link.
The default value for the map argument is 0x00000000
Max failuresSpecifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the PPP
module can send without having sent a Configure-ACK message. The
integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20. The default
value for the maximum failure count is 10.
Max configureSpecifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration
requests that your SHARK™ IAD will send. The integer argument can
be any number between 1 and 10. The default value for the
max
configure argument is 10.
Max TerminateSpecifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination
requests that your SHARK™ IAD will send before terminating the PPP
link. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 10. The
max terminate argument is 2.
PAP
Authentication
default value for the
Specifies whether PAP authentication is enabled for a port. By default,
PAP authentication is turned off. PAP authentication must be enabled
before you can enter other PAP information. If you disable PAP
authentication and save the modified configuration, your SHARK™
IAD retains its PAP setting.
PAP UsernameSpecifies the name the SHARK™ IAD sends in a PAP response
packet. The
pap_name argument is 1- 32 alphanumeric characters.
The information you enter must match the PAP username configured in
the PPP peer's authentication database.
PAP PasswordSpecifies the password the SHARK™ IAD sends when a PPP peer
sends a PAP authentication request. The
password argument is 1-32
alphanumeric characters. The information you enter must match the
PAP password used by the PPP peer.
CHAPSpecifies whether CHAP authentication is enabled. By default, CHAP
authentication is turned off. CHAP authentication must be enabled
before you can enter other CHAP information. If CHAP is turned on,
it will be the first authentication method offered to the remote peer
during link negotiation.
If you turn port authentication off and peer
authentication on, the PPP software still uses the port authentication
chap-name and pap-name for authentication. As a result, the port
authentication names for PAP and CHAP must be identical to the peer
names for your SHARK™ IAD on the remote peer. If you do not
configure a chap-name or pap-name, then the authentication packets
sent by the local peer will have blank name values. This may cause
authentication to fail for some PPP implementations.
CHAP UsernameSpecifies the name the SHARK™ IAD sends in a CHAP response
packet. The
chap name argument is 1-32 alphanumeric characters.
The information you enter must match the CHAP username configured
in the remote PPP peer's authentication database.
CHAP PasswordSpecifies the CHAP secret for CHAP authentication. The secret
argument is 1-32 alphanumeric characters. The information you enter
must match the CHAP secret used by the PPP peer.
Magic Numberon/off
Enables or disables LCP magic number negotiation. By default, magic
number negotiation is turned on.

before re-transmitting a configuration or termination request. The
integer argument can be any number between 1 and 30. The default
value for the
integer argument is 3 seconds. You can reduce the restart
timer value if your link is relatively fast (28,800 bps or greater).
Conversely, you should increase the restart timer value for slow links.
If you have selected HDLC as encapsulation for a particular TDMs VCC, the
HDLC channel enable page will appear once you click on the
save button of the
TDM Channel configuration page. Figure 39 shows the Channel setup page for
HDLC encapsulation. Enable the VCC by clicking on the

Configuration page. Figure 40 shows this page. From this page you select the
desired IP, FDL (not displayed for HDLC encapsulation), and TCIP functions to
configure.
First, click on the
Fast Ethernet button. Figure 41 shows the Fast Ethernet
Configuration page.
The FDL configuration (not displayed for HDLC encapsulation) is described in
the FDL instruction paragraphs on pages 5-31 through 5-35. Consequently we
will continue with configuring the TDM VCC and Ethernet addressing which is
the next button of the IP menu.
The address configuration parameters for all Ethernet ports are similar to those
found in the Fast Ethernet Configuration page shown in Figure 41. These
parameters are explained in
Table 15.
Refer to Figure 42 for the TDM VCC address configuration page when Frame
Relay or HDLC is selected for the

Chapter 5: Graphical User Interface (GUI/WEB) Configuration Pages
AddressThe address is the IP address used to address the port
being configured. For PPP it can be 0.0.0.0 and should
cause the NCP to obtain the address from the remote side
(Peer) peer.
Peer AddressOnly used when ppp is selected for the 'frame mode'
option in the
tdm channel setup menu. This is the address
of the remote side (Peer) ppp link.
Note: It is recommended that the peer address be assigned
a 0.0.0.0 address.
BroadcastSpecifies the broadcast address for the TCP/IP network
connected to the Fether port. IP hosts use the broadcast
address to send messages to every host on your network
simultaneously. The broadcast address for most networks
is the network number followed by 255. For example, the
broadcast address for the 192.168.1.0 network would be
192.168.1.255.
VJ CompressionOnly used when ppp is selected for the 'frame mode'
option in the
tdm channel setup menu. The IP-
Compression-Protocol Configuration Option (typically
referred to as 'VJ Compression' after its author Van
Jacobson) is used to indicate the ability to receive
compressed packets. Each end of the link must separately
request this option if bi-directional compression is
desired.
Flush RoutesOnly used when ppp is selected for the frame mode option
in the 'tdm channel setup' menu. When the
made any routing information acquired from a remote
peer will be cleared when the link to that peer is
terminated
NetmaskSpecifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network
connected to the Fether port. The subnet mask specifies
which bits of the 32-bit binary IP address represent
network information. The default subnet mask for most
networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask).
