Prestige 1600 Universal Access Concentrator

What is DSL?

DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. Local Exchange carriers currently use a single unshielded twisted pair of
wire on the local loop (between Central Office and Customer Premises) for transmitting voice, which requires 300­3,400 Hz of bandwidth. The wires are, however, capable of carrying information at much higher rate when modern
digital processing techniques are deployed. The same pair of wires are used successfully worldwide to provide
ISDN services yielding up to 128 Kbps. The explosive growth in Internet access, remote LAN access and
telecommuting demand data rates that are a lot higher than what conventional analog modems can provide over the
existing pair of wires.

SDSL (Symmetric DSL)

SDSL operates on a single copper pair. SDSL allows applications that require symmetric data rates. Because only
one pair is needed in this arrangement, the capacity of the entire local loop infrastructure is greatly magnified. With
this capability, local providers can extract the maximum value from their existing plant, or deploy new capacities
both more quickly and at a lower capital expenditure.

SDSL allows for rapid and cost effective deployment of intermediate data rate services. Potential uses for this
technology include fractional T1 with a particular advantage in 768 Kbps systems, Work-at-home LAN access,
Distance Learning, Internet Access, and Campus or Large Facility LAN to LAN connectivity. Since SDSL can be
configured at multiple data rates, it can have different capacity and reach limitations.

This also allows for easy, cost-effec tiv e implementation of such services as rem ote cell si te suppo rt of PCs, rem ote
LAN access, distance education and training, digital imaging, or any other service, which requires a larger amount
of bandwidth.

ADSL (Asymmetric DSL)

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line takes its name from the comparatively high bandwidth in one direction, with
low bandwidth in the opposite direction. ADSL uses a single phone line for transmission. Many service providers
have also come to recognize its potential to support a range of data applications.

Additionally, ADSL’s ability to operate at speeds of up to 8 Mbps positions it to support real-time broadcast
services and pre-recorded interactive video services; and to have multiple video and data activities running
simultaneously. ADSL supports applications with asymmetric traffic demands such as:

! Web Surfing
! File Downloads
! Distance Learning

IDSL (ISDN DSL)

IDSL stands for ISDN Digital Subscriber Line (IDSL). IDSL uses the 2B1Q line coding standard for ISDN BRI
circuits. Used for data-only applications, IDSL operates at 128 Kbps for up to 18,000 feet.

Because IDSL uses the same industry-standard line coding technique as ISDN, customers with ISDN BRI terminal
adapters can use their current TAs, routers and bridges for connecting to IDSL lines. Any of the commonly used
transport protocols such as PPP, MP, or Frame Relay may be used over the IDSL line, allowing rapid and
transparent integration into Internet, remote LAN access and telecommuting.

1.3 Detailed Features of the Prestige 1600

Modular Architecture

The P1600 chassis is equipped with three network module slots, one system module and two removable fan
modules.

Configuration Types

The Prestige 1600 can be configured via SMT Menu 1 as a primary, secondary or standalone device.

1. Primary

The P1600 primary provides concentration, network management, Internet access and routing functions as well as
uses the FlexWan port as the interface to the trunk.

2. Secondary

The P1600 secondary provides concentration, network management, Internet access and routing functions as well
but only through the LAN interface. A secondary needs to work with a primary device because for WAN access,
you need to connect to a P1600 primary.

3. Standalone

Standalone SMT configurations are the same as a secondary, but in this configuration mode, it does not have to
work with a primary. You can connect a router directly to its LAN port.

Network Interfaces

The P1600 has two trunk interfaces: one Ethernet and one WAN port (primary mode only). The WAN port supports
RS-232, EIA 530,RS-422, X.21 and V.35 interfaces.

Network Protocol Support

The P1600 supports the following network protocols:

! TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network layer protocol.
! IP Policy Routing
! Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1 and RIP-2)

Full Network Management

Your Prestige 1600 offers you a variety of options for network management. It supports password protected local
and remote network management via the console port or a telnet connection. It also supports FTP, TFTP, SNMP
(Simple Network Management Protocol) and CI command.

If you cannot telnet to your Prestige, you can configure your Prestige via a modem connected to the console port
over a phone line as shown in the next figure.

Please note that for figures in this manual, the “Prestige” refers to the Prestige 1600 and that the

Prestige 1600 clients are not labeled - pl ease see the next section.

Robust Security Features

Your Prestige supports CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol), PAP (Password Authentication
Protocol) and RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial in User Service). In addition, the SMT is password protected.
You can also configure the LAN, WAN filters to block unwanted incoming and outgoing packets.

Internet Access Sharing

The Prestige 1600 primary support Single User Account (SUA)/Network Address Translation (NAT) which enables
multiple subscribers to access the Internet using a single IP address. The ZyXEL Network Operating System
(ZyNOS) implementation of SUA/NAT allows NetMeeting, CuSeeMe, ICQ and other multimedia application
traffic behind NAT on the client side.

Note that P1600 secondary machine does not support SUA/NAT; only the P1600 primary does on the WAN port.
For a P1600 standalone NAT/SUA is supported over LAN when the Ethernet port is connected to a broadband
modem.

Remote Software Upgrades

The Prestige 1600 uses FLASH memory technology that enables software upgrades without opening the units. The
P1600 can be upgraded via the console port, locally and remotely, as well as via FTP and TFTP.
