Configuration
Access Device A drop-down list of all the iMAP Devices that have ports
that can support some (or all) aspects of triple play
Slot Port Once the Access Device is chosen, the available ports are
on that device are listed in the drop-down list. When a port
is chosen the port type appears next to the port in
parentheses.
The default state of ports on AlliedWare Plus devices has a
customer name of ‘portx.x.x’ for all ports. You must
deprovision the port to remove this customer name, then
reprovision using the triple-play form to provision a relevant
customer name.
Port Profile Once the port (and therefore port type) is chosen, the
available profiles for that port type appear in the drop-down
list. When the port is provisioned, it inherits the attributes
of that profile.
- If the profile includes a VLAN, the VLAN fields are greyed
out.
- If IGMP snooping is set to OFF in the profile, MAC lookup
cannot be done, so the STB fields are greyed out.
- For iMAP and SBx3100 devices, IGMP Snooping is applied
to the port. For devices running iMAP software up through
release 16.x.x, IGMP Snooping must be enabled system-
wide. For devices running software release 17.x.x and
higher, IGMP Snooping must be enabled on individual
VLANs.
VLAN Settings The VLANs to be associated with the port. The Untagged
VLAN is the default VLAN (packets with no VLAN tag are
given this number VLAN). The port may contain more than
one untagged VLAN, with each VLAN number separated by
a comma.
IP Filtering (Allowed Ranges) Incoming data to the ports (the ingress ports) can be filtered
by IP address or a range of IP addresses. Refer to the iMAP
User Guide.
Allowed STB MAC Addrs. STBs are configured with unicast MAC addresses; when
associating an STB with a port number, take care in data
filling the correct MAC address. Unicast MAC addresses
have a 0 in the last bit of the first address group, so valid
numbers are 00, 02, 04, 06, 08, 0A, 0C, and 0E. Refer to the
Software Reference for iMAP Series Switches.
Voice Configuration POTS: The attributes that support iMAP Devices that have ports
that can support the POTS aspect of triple play. Specific
attributes are controlled by the POTS Port Profile selected.
Derived Voice The attributes for Voice over IP provided by iMG/RGs.
Specific attributes are controlled by the Derived Voice
Service Profile (RG Voice profile) selected. If the profile
specifies GenBand MGCP, then attributes are provided to
directly configure the GenBand voice gateway.
For GenBand, the NMS does not support TR-008.
