20 Preface

This chapter introduces the G.SHDSL line card's general features, factory default settings and
hardware.

1.1 SLC1224 Overview

The SLC1224 G.SHDSL Line Card is perfect for ISPs or large building applications seeking
to provide high bandwidth broadband services to subscribers while minimizing costs. It
connects up to 24 G.SHDSL subscribers.

G.SHDSL is an acronym for Single-pair High-speed Digital Subscriber Line. ITU-T G.991.2
defines the "G." in "G.SHDSL".

SLC1224 User’s Guide

CHAPTER 1

SLC1224 Overview

The SEC1024 (SHDSL Extension Card) sends the SHDSL traffic to the rear of the splitter
chassis.

Use this chapter's Telco-50 connector pin assignments along with the directions and safety
warnings in the IES-2000's or IES-3000’s User's Guide to install the cards and make the
necessary connections.

1.2 Features

G.SHDSL Compliance

• ITU-T G.991.2

• ITU-T G.991.2 bis

• ITU-T G.994.1

• Rate adaptation support

IEEE 802.1p Priority

Your SLC uses IEEE 802.1p priority to assign priority levels to individual ports and prioritize
traffic based on those levels.

System Monitoring

• System status (link status, rates, statistics counters)

• Temperatures, voltage reports and alarms.

Chapter 1 SLC1224 Overview 21

SLC1224 User’s Guide

Alarm LED

An ALM (alarm) LED lights when the SLC is overheated or the voltage readings are outside
the tolerance levels and turns off when the temperature or voltage has returned to a normal
level. Fans in the main chassis cool the unit.

N-wire Mode

The n-wire mode allows you to physically bundle two or four G.SHDSL ports into a single 4­wire or 8-wire G.SHDSL connection. This can increase the reach of G.SHDSL or give
increased bandwidth when connecting to 4-wire mode G.SHDSL modems or another SLC.

IEEE 802.1Q Tagged VLAN

Your SLC uses the IEEE 802.1Q Tagged VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network), which allows
it to deliver tagged/untagged frames to and from its ports. The SLC supports up to 4094
individual VLANs.

IEEE 802.1x Port-based Authentication

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

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.

System Error Logging

The SLC's system error log will record error logs locally. These logs may be viewed again
after a warm restart.

IGMP Snooping

With IGMP snooping, group multicast traffic is only forwarded to ports that are members of
that group. IGMP snooping generates no additional network traffic, allowing you to
significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your SLC.

Multiple PVC

The SLC allows you to use different channels (also called Permanent Virtual Circuits or
PVCs) for different services or subscribers. You can define up to four channels on each DSL
port and use them for different services or levels of service. You set the default port VID that
is assigned to untagged frames received on each channel. You also set an IEEE 802.1p priority
for each PVC. In this way you can assign different priorities to different channels (and
consequently the services that get carried on them or the subscribers that use them).

Web Configurator Introduction

This chapter tells how to access and navigate the web configurator when you use the line card
with the management switch card.

2.1 Web Configurator Overview

The web configurator allows you to use a web browser to manage the G.SHDSL line card
while it is behind the management switch card. The chapters on using the web configurator
with the management switch card give basic descriptions of the G.SHDSL line card screens.

2.2 Accessing the Web Configurator

SLC1224 User’s Guide

The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy SLC setup
and management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later versions. The
recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.

In order to use the web configurator you need to allow:

• Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by
default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.

• JavaScripts (enabled by default).

• Java permissions (enabled by default).

2.2.1 Password

1 Launch your web browser and enter the IP address of the SLC ("192.168.1.1" is the

factory default) in the Location or Address field. Press Enter.

2 The Password screen now appears. Type “admin” in the user name field (it may display

automatically for you) and your password (factory default “1234”) in the password field.
Click Login.

2.5 Saving Your Configuration

Click Apply in a configuration screen when you are done modifying the settings in that screen
to save your changes back to the switch.

2.6 Navigating the Web Configurator

The web configurator uses multiple levels. You only need to use one level for features that
deal with the IES-2000 or IES-3000 as a whole. For example, to configure General Setup,
click the link on the navigation panel to open the configuration screen.

Features that are based on individual cards, for example Port Setup, require you to go down
another level. Click the link on the navigation panel, and then click the card’s link (see Figure

5 on page 28) to open the configuration screen.

Figure 5 Select a Line Card

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 5 Select a Line Card

LABEL DESCRIPTION

Slot ID This is the slot number.

Module Type Click a link in this column to go to the port setup screens for a card.

There may be yet more levels below to allow you to make more and more specific
configurations, for example Port Setup on the G.SHDSL line card has screens that allow you
to configure individual profiles and individual ports.

Configuration screens for individual cards display the card’s slot number in front of the
screens title in the upper left hand corner of the screen (see Figure 6 on page 29).

Many of the configuration screens that are based on individual cards have one or more links in
the upper-right corner. Click a link to go to the screen with the same name. For example, click

Port Setup in the SLC Port Setup screen (see Figure 6 on page 29) to go to the general Port
Setup screen (see Figure 5 on page 28).

2.7 Logging Out of the Web Configurator

Click Logout in a screen to exit the web configurator. You have to log in with your password
again after you log out. This is recommended after you finish a management session both for
security reasons and so you don’t lock out other SLC administrators.
