AlliedView NMS Administration Guide
• Cutover only applies to ports of the same interface type, such as ADSL to ADSL, since otherwise source port parameter
settings would not map to destination port parameter settings.
• To ensure parameter compatibility, cutover is restricted to destination ports on devices running the same or higher
version of software as the source device, and for ADSL and VDSL, the same annex (A, B, or C).
• When the new ports are provisioned, they are initially provisioned with the port profile. This ensures the creation of
creating classifiers as well as parameters that may not be present on the source card since interface parameter changes
may have been introduced by an upgraded card.
• It is assumed the VLAN configuration is unchanged, so the cutover must occur within the same Access Island. (Refer to
Section 7 on Access Islands and their VLAN configuration.)
Refer to the following table for a list of card types and whether they are supported.
