General Syntax Conventions

 Mouse action sequences are denoted using a comma. For example, click Start, Settings, Control Panel,

Network means first you click Start, click or move the mouse pointer over Settings, then click or move
the mouse pointer over Control Panel and finally click (or double-click) Network.

 “Enter” means for you to type one or more characters. “Select” or “Choose” means for you to use one of

the predefined choices.

 Predefined choices are in Bold Arial font.

 “e.g.,” is shorthand for “for instance”, and “i.e.,” means “that is” or “in other words”.

Naming Conventions

 The ALC1024 (ADSL Line Card) may be referred to as the ALC, the line card or the card.

 “ALC1024” refers to the ALC1024-61 and ALC1024-61L for ADSL over POTS (Annex A). “ALC1024”

also refers to the ALC1024-63 and ALC1024-63L for ADSL over ISDN (Annex B) versions.
Differentiation is made where needed.

 The ASC1024 (ADSL Splitter Card) may be referred to as the splitter card.

xiv Preface

ALC1024 User’s Guide

 “ASC1024” refers to both the ASC1024-61 for ADSL over POTS (Annex A) and the ASC1024-63 for

ADSL over ISDN (Annex B) versions. Differentiation is made where needed.

 The IES-2000 or IES-3000 may be referred to as the IES.

 The IES-2000 or IES-3000 may be referred to as the IES.

 The MSC1000, MSC1000A or MSC1000AL (Management Switch Card) may be referred to as the switch

card or MSC.

ALC1024 Overview

Part I:

ALC1024 Overview

This part introduces the general features default settings and hardware of the ADSL line card.

I

ALC1024 Overview

Chapter 1

ALC1024

This chapter introduces the ADSL line card’s general features, factory default settings and hardware.

Overview

1.1 ALC1024 Overview

The ALC1024 (ADSL Line Card) provides ADSL service for 24 subscribers over existing telephone wiring, thus
avoiding the cost and hassle of installing new wiring. ADSL allows you to extend the reach of broadband services
up to 18,000 feet. This makes the ADSL line card perfect for providing high bandwidth broadband service to
subscribers who are spread out over a large area.

The ASC1024 (ADSL Splitter Card) combines voice service and ADSL on the same telephone wiring.

WARNING

The ADSL line card has no surge protection!

The ADSL splitter card protects against power surges and lightening on the telephone lines.

Use other surge protection on the telephone lines if you do not use the ADSL splitter card!

Please contact your distributor or customer support if you have further questions (see the

customer support page for contact information).

Use this chapter’s Telco-50 connector pin assignments along with the directions and safety warnings in the
Integrated Ethernet Switch’s User’s Guide to install the cards and make the necessary connections. Install the
ADSL line card in the main chassis. Install the ADSL splitter card in the splitter chassis.

The following features, default settings and hardware specifications apply to the ADSL line card used with the
MSC (Management Switch Card).

1.2 Features of the ALC1024

ALC1024 Overview 1-1

ALC1024 Overview

IEEE 802.1p Priority

The line card can add IEEE 802.1p Priority tags to non priority-tagged traffic that comes in through a subscriber
port. Other IEEE 802.1p aware devices in the Ethernet network can use the tags to prioritize the traffic. The line
card itself does not apply priority-based traffic scheduling for either upstream or downstream traffic.

Multiple PVCs

The line card allows you to use different channels (also called Permanent Virtual Circuits or PVCs) for different
services or subscribers. Define channels

1

on each DSL port for different services.

IEEE 802.1x Port-based Authentication

The line card supports the IEEE 802.1x standard for centralized user authentication and accounting management
through an optional network authentication (RADIUS) server.

Protocol

Multiple Protocols over AAL5 (RFC 1483)

MAC (Media Access Control) Filter

Use the MAC filter to filter incoming frames based on MAC (Media Access Control) address(es) that you specify.
You may enable/disable the MAC filter on specific ports. You may specify up to ten MAC addresses per port.

MAC (Media Access Control) Count Filter

You can limit the number of MAC addresses that may be dynamically learned on a port. You may enable/disable
the MAC count filter on individual ports.

Static Multicast Filter

Use the static multicast filter to allow incoming frames based on multicast MAC address(es) that you specify. This
feature can be used in conjunction with IGMP snooping to allow multicast MAC address(es) that are not learned
by IGMP snooping.

IGMP Snooping

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) snooping reduces multicast traffic for maximum performance.

System Monitoring

System status (link status, rates, statistics counters)
Temperatures, voltage reports and alarms.

Overheating Detection, Warning and Safegaurd

The ALM LED turns on when the line card’s internal temperature is too high and turns off when the temperature
has returned to a normal level.

1

Up to eight channels on each DSL port at the time of writing.
