5.6.11 Overview of Triple Play Service Management Form
Once a port is configured for video, data, or voice, the Triple Play Service Management Form is used to view or modify the
port’s attributes. Depending on the type of port configured and the services configured on that port, this management form
displays the various attributes in a hierarchical multi-tab format. The following sections give the different ways this form can
appear:
• Status (5.6.12)
• Add a voice Line (for GenBand only) - on Status tab form (5.6.13)
• iMG/RG (5.6.14)
• Ethernet Configuration (5.6.15)
• ADSL Configuration (5.6.16)
• SHDSL Configuration (5.6.17)
• Voice Configuration (5.6.18)
• CES8 (5.6.19)
• NTE8 (5.6.20)
• EPON2/ONU (5.6.23)
• ATM Bonding (5.6.30)
Note: In provisioning Triple Play, more than one card can be included in the customer configuration, and so a combination of tabs
will appear so the user can query all attributes of the customer.
Note: The iMG/RG is included in the Customer Management Form. Note that once the iMG/RG is provisioned with the iMAP
customer port, this form displays the same information whether viewing the RG device or the iMAP interfacing port.
Note: This section includes an overview of what the tabs include for the iMG/RG, but focuses on ports that are not configured with
an iMG/RG. For details on the Service Management form for the iMG/RG, refer to Section 7.
5.6.12 Status Tab
The Status tab gives the main provisioning attributes for the port/RG and their status. It also allows the administrator to add
a voice line, as detailed in 5.6.13. The following figure shows an example form and its attributes.
The status form allows the user to see in one set of screens the attributes that were used when provisioning the iMG (use of
profiles, VLANs, etc.) as well as the status of the iMG.
For voice service, there are two sets of information under the Voice configuration panel:
• POTS - When configured, this is voice service using a POTS-based card (POTS24, PAC24) and an ADSL splitter. This
includes the slot.port of the POTS24 card, the call agent, and the status of the POTS24 card and port. If there is no POTS
configured, there is the text “No POTS port configured.”
Note: If the POTS24 configuration uses a soft switch other than GenBand, the POTS call agent attributes are listed as unknown..
• Derived Voice - When configured, this is VoIP provided by the iMG/RG/iBG and can use one of many softswitches,
including GenBand. If the configuration uses GenBand, then the Derived Voice attributes are shown, including the Voice
Endpoint, which must be configured for this voice service to work. If another softswitch is used, there is the message
“Derived voice gateway information is not available.” This means that the NMS does not manage the device that provides
the service.
