Chapter 5 Initial Configuration
Note: If you change the IP address of the SAM1316-22, after you click Apply IP
setting, you have to use the new IP address to log into the web configurator
again.
4If your subscribers use VPI 0 and VCI 33 (the default for all of the DSL ports), go
to step 13. Otherwise, use the following steps to change the VPI and VCI settings
for all of the DSL ports.
First, you will delete the default virtual channel from all of the DSL ports. (You
cannot edit it). Then, you will configure a new virtual channel for a port and copy
it to the other DSL ports.
Adding another virtual channel without deleting the default virtual channel is not
recommended since you cannot set the new channel to be the port’s super
channel. The super channel can forward frames belonging to multi ple VLAN groups
(that are not assigned to other channels). A channel that is not the super channel
can only forward frames with a single VLAN ID (that is configured on that
channel). In this case, the SAM1316-22 drops any frames received from the
subscriber that are tagged with another VLAN ID.

serve a more specific application, for example, GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration
Protocol). GARP and GVRP are the protocols used to automatically register VLAN
membership across switches.
Switches join VLANs by making a declaration. A declaration is made by issuing a
Join message using GARP. Declarations are withdrawn by issuing a Leave
message. A Leave All message terminates all registrations. GARP timers set
declaration timeout values.
10.2 Switch Modes
The SAM1316-22 supports standalone and daisychain switch modes.
10.2.1 Standalone Switch Mode
“Standalone switch mode” relates to the SAM1316-22’ s operational beha vior, not a
standalone network topology. The standalone switch mode allows either or both of
the SAM1316-22’s Ethernet ports to connect to the backbone Ethernet network.
You can also connect one of the SAM1316-22’s Ethernet ports to the Ethernet
network and the other to another SAM1316-22 (see Figure 38 on page 82 for an
example). When the SAM1316-22 is in standalone mode, you can use it in a
network topology that uses loops (you should also enable RSTP). You can have
multiple SAM1316-22 connected on the same network and set both of them to use
standalone mode in order to use them with a network topology that uses loops.
SAM1316-22 User’s Guide
81
Chapter 10 Switch Setup
Standalone switch mode with port isolation enabled blocks communications
between subscriber ports on an individual SAM1316-22. However, one SAM131622’s subscribers can communicate with another SAM1316-22’s subscribers if the
two SAM1316-22’s Ethernet ports are connected to each other (see Figure 38 on
page 82 for an example). If you have multiple SAM1316-22 connected on the
same network and set to standalone mode, they do not all need to have the same
port isolation setting.
10.2.2 Port Isolation with Standalone Switch Mode Example
The following graphic shows SAM1316-22 1 and 2 connected to each other and
the Ethernet backbone switch (3) in a network topology that creates a loop. The
SAM1316-22 are using the standalone switch mode and have RSTP enabled.
In this example, both SAM1316-22 have port isolation turned on. Communications
between A and B must first go through another switch (3 in the figure). However,
A and B can communicate with C without their communications going through
another switch or router.
Figure 38 Port Isolation with Standalone Switch Mode Example
10.2.3 Daisychain Switch Mode
Daisychain switch mode sets the SAM1316-22 to use Ethernet port one (ENET 1)
as an uplink port to connect to the Ethernet backbone and Ethernet port two
(ENET 2) to connect to another (daisychained or subtending) SAM1316-22. The
daisychain switch mode is recommended for use in a network topology that does

not have loops. When you daisychain multiple SAM1316-22 they must all be set to
daisychain mode.
Daisychain switch mode with port isolation enabled blocks communications
between subscriber ports on an individual SAM1316-22 and between the
subscribers of any daisychained SAM1316-22 (see Figure 39 on page 83 for an
example). Use the same port isolation setting on all SAM1316-22 that you set up
in a daisychain.
10.2.4 Port Isolation with Daisychain Switch Mode Example
In the example below, the SAM1316-22 1 has its Ethernet port one (ENET 1)
connected to the Ethernet backbone switch (3) and it’s Ethernet port two (ENET 2)
connected to Ethernet port one (ENET 1) of the daisychained SAM1316-22 (2).
With port isolation turned on, communications between A and B must first go
through another switch or router (3 in the figure). A and B also cannot
communicate with C without their communications going through another switch
or router.

CHAPTER 13
xDSL Port Setup
This chapter explains how to configure settings for profiles and individual DSL
ports. It also covers how to configure virtual channels and virtual channel profil es .
13.1 DSL Profiles
A DSL profile is a table that contains a list of pre-configured DSL settings. Each
DSL port has one (and only one) profile assigned to it at any given time. You can
configure multiple profiles, including profiles for troubleshooting. Profiles allow you
to configure DSL ports efficiently. You can configure all of the DSL ports with the
same profile, thus removing the need to configure the DSL ports one-by-one. You
can also change an individual DSL port by assigning it a different profile.
For example, you could set up different profiles f or different kinds of accounts (for
example, economy, standard and premium). Assign the appropriate profile to a
DSL port and it takes care of a large part of the port’s configuration maximum and
minimum transfer rates. Y ou sti ll get to individually enable or disable each port, as
well as configure its channels and operational mode.
13.2 Alarm Profiles
Alarm profiles define DSL port alarm thresholds. The SAM1316-22 sends an alarm
trap and generates a syslog entry when the thresholds of the alarm profile are
exceeded. See Section 14.8 on page 116 for how to configure alarm profiles.
13.3 Downstream and Upstream
Downstream refers to traffic going out from the SAM1316-22 to the subscriber’s
DSL modem or router. Upstream refers to traffic coming into the SAM1316-22
from the subscriber’s DSL modem or router.
SAM1316-22 User’s Guide
91
Chapter 13 xDSL Port Setup
13.4 EFM and ATM Modes
The SAM1316-22 can operate in two modes: Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) and
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM).
• IEEE 802.3-2004’s EFM (Ethernet First Mile) lets y ou run Ethernet protocol o ver
G.SHDSL. EFM framing has less overhead than A TM encapsulation, thus allowing
better data transmission rates. If the CPE device supports EFM, select efm to
use Ethernet frames over SHDSL. For ports set to EFM mode you can use PAF
(PHY Aggregation Function) to bundle EFM PHYs to either increase the data rate
of one logical EFM link for a given loop length or increase the maximum
achievable loop length for a given data rate. This bundling is configured in the
SHDSL profile’s Wire Pair setting (see Chapter 14 on page 108).
• If the CPE device only supports ATM, select atm to use ATM cells o ver SHDSL.
For ports set to ATM mode, you can use G.bond to create bundles of up to 16
wires (see Chapter 16 on page 129).
13.5 Default Settings
The default profile always exists and all of the DSL ports use the default profile
settings when the SAM1316-22 is shipped. The default profile's name is set to
DEFVAL.
See Appendix A on page 435 for the settings of the default profile and DSL port
default settings.

13.7 Virtual Channels
Defining virtual channels (also called Permanent Virtual Circuits or PVCs) allows
you to set priorities for different services or subscribers. You can define up to eight
channels on each DSL port and use them for different services or levels of service.
You set the PVID that is assigned to untagged frames received on each channel.
You also set an IEEE 802.1p priority for each of the PVIDs. In this way you can
assign different priorities to different channels (and co nsequently the services that
get carried on them or the subscribers that use them).
Chapter 13 xDSL Port Setup
For example, you want to give high priority to voice service on one of the DSL
ports.
Use the Edit Static VLAN screen to configure a static VLAN on the SAM1316-22
for voice on the port.
Use the DSL Edit Port Channel Setup screen to:
• Configure a channel on the port for voice service.
• Set the channel to use the PVID of the static VLAN you configured.
• Assign the channel a high priority.
13.7.1 Super Channel
The SAM1316-22 forwards frames belonging to VLAN groups that are not assigned
to specific channels to the super channel. Enable the super channel option to allow
a channel forward frames belonging to multiple VLAN groups (that are not
assigned to other channels). The super channel functions in the same way as the
channel in a single channel environment. One port can have only one super
channel.

Chapter 13 xDSL Port Setup
13.7.2 LLC
LLC is a type of encapsulation where one VC (Virtual Circuit) carries multiple
protocols with each packet header containing protocol identifyi ng information.
Despite the extra bandwidth and processing overhead, this method may be
advantageous if it is not practical to have a separate VC for each carried protocol,
for example, if charging heavily depends on the number of simultaneous VCs.
13.7.3 VC Mux
VC Mux is a type of encapsulation where, by prior mutual agreement, each
protocol is assigned to a specific virtual circuit, for example, VC1 carries IP, VC2
carries IPX, and so on. VC-based multiplexing may be dominant in environments
where dynamic creation of large numbers of ATM VCs is fast and economical.
13.7.4 Virtual Channel Profile
Virtual channel profile s a ll o w you to configure the virtual channels efficiently. You
can configure all of the virtual channels with the same profile, thus removing the
need to configure the virtual channels one-by-one. You can also change an
individual virtual channel by assigning it a different profile.
The SAM1316-22 provides two default virtual channel profiles: DEFVAL (for LLC
encapsulation) and DEFVAL_VC (for VC encapsulation). By default, all virtual
channels are associated to DEFVAL.
