MR9600-100 User Guide Introduction This manual describes the field installation of a Multi-Tech MR9600-100 Controller (henceforth, MR9600100) into a CommPlete Communications Server chassis. This manual also contains a reference guide to the commands that are used to configure and control the MR9600-100. For configuration instructions, refer to the System Installation and Quick Start section of you CommPlete documentation set.
1 Introduction Card Status LEDs The lower part of the MR9600-100’s front panel contains 16 two-color LED indicators, one for each card slot in the CC9600 chassis. The slots are numbered 1 through 16 from left to right. The LEDs indicate the state of the device cards installed in the CC9600 chassis. When the MR9600-100 is turned on, the lights go through the following sequence before they act as status indicators for the device cards. 1.
MR9600-100 User Guide Ethernet Switch LEDs The upper part of the MR9600-100 front panel contains 10 status indicators for the Ethernet switch. LED Indicator Indication UTILIZATION Percentage of bandwidth in use. Each LED that is on represents a 16.7% increment in use. The lower 4 LEDs are green, and the two LEDs indicating highest activity are yellow. CC9600 (LINK) On during a valid Ethernet link on a 10 Mbps port. LAN (LINK) On during a valid Ethernet link on a 10 Mbps LAN port.
1 Introduction Duplex Mode Jumpers The MR9600-100 must be set to the proper duplex mode for all ports. To set the duplex mode, change the Duplex Mode jumpers on the back of the MR9600-100. Note that it is not necessary to turn off the device when changing the duplex mode setting. Note: Full-duplex mode can only be used for connections to other switches or to network stations. Connections to hubs must use half-duplex mode only.
MR9600-100 User Guide • Two Ethernet link indicator LEDs • Two Ethernet 100M bps indicator LEDs • 10BASE-T, IEEE 802.3, 100BASE-TX, and IEEE 802.
1 Introduction technology such as stackable hubs, coupled with the decreasing cost of switches, bridges, and routers, allow the design of low-cost, efficient Fast Ethernet workgroups and enterprise LANs. The following factors strongly influence the architecture of Fast Ethernet networks: • The EIA/TIA 568 Wiring Standard imposes a 100 meter limit on horizontal runs of twisted-pair cables; that is, connections from the wiring closet to the end-station.
MR9600-100 User Guide The difference between switched Ethernet (10Mbps, 100Mbps, or both) and traditional Ethernet is analogous to the difference between a private phone line and a party line. With switched Ethernet, each workgroup has a “private line” so that transmitted packets don’t have to wait as long to gain access to the network.

2 Installation 82067502
MR9600-100 User Guide Introduction This chapter describes how to install the MR9600-100 Controller into a CommPlete Communication Server CC9600 chassis. This equipment should only be installed by properly qualified service personnel. The MR9600-100 Controller assembly consists of the MR9600-100 Controller card, an integrated Ethernet switch card, and a common front panel. Figure 3 shows the layout of the MR9600-100 card without the switch.
2 Hardware Installation is the PC that runs the MultiModemManager software or, optionally, a third-party SNMP manager. Note that for 10M bps connection, you can use Category 3 (Cat 3) or Cat 5 cable; for 100M bps connection you must use Category 5 (Cat 5) cable. Serial Cabling Use the 9-pin RS-232 connector on the back of the CC9600 chassis for diagnostics and configuration.
MR9600-100 User Guide Setting the Duplex Mode (JP1-JP5) Each 10M bps port can be set for half-duplex or full-duplex operation. At half-duplex operation, packet transmission and reception do not occur simultaneously, thus communication speed is limited to 10Mbps in 10BASE-T mode. At full-duplex operation, packet transmission and reception occur simultaneously, thus communication speed is doubled to 20Mbps using 10BASE-T mode.
2 Hardware Installation In the figure above, port #1 (“P1”) is set to full-duplex operation by placing the shorting plug over the top two pins of jumper JP5. Port #5 (“P1”) is set to full-duplex operation by placing the shorting plug over the bottom two pins of JP1.

3 Operation 82067502
MR9600-100 User Guide Introduction You can operate the MR9600-100 by using the front panel indicators for information (see Chapter 6). But if you install the optional MultiModemManager software, you can operate the MR9600-100 by running windows-based menu and command functions from a dedicated management console (refer to the MultiModemManager User Guide).
3 Operation SNMP Interface The MR9600-100 can be monitored and controlled by using SNMP through the MultiModemManager or a third party SNMP manager. Note that SNMP issues relate to the SNMP-managed MR9600-100 controller, but not to the unmanaged CC9600HB-100 Ethernet switch. To receive traps from the MR9600-100, the SNMP manager should log in using the entry in the system table. In that entry, do a set of “login PUBLIC.
MR9600-100 User Guide Telnet Interface Telnet is a standard Internet protocol that allows a remote connection between two systems connected to a TCP/IP network such as the Internet. The MR9600-100 can be managed remotely by using Telnet. Telnet can give the user access to all management functions through the command line interface. There is an inactivity timer associated with the Telnet session. If there is no activity for 10 minutes, then the Telnet session will close.
3 Operation Logging In Whenever you access the MR9600-100 for the first time during a browser session, you will be prompted for a user ID and password. You must log in as someone of security level operator or higher to get access to the Web interface. Both the framed and the non-framed interfaces present logged-in users with a list of available views (Framed or Standard), a list of operations, and a list of information views. These are all available via hypertext links.
4 Commands 82067502
MR9600-100 User Guide Parameter Types Many MR9600-100 commands require a parameter to complete the command. Most of the required parameters fall into one of the four following types.

Before uploading, binary files must be converted to ASCII data on the source computer using a utility supplied by Multi-Tech. The format for the data is one or more lines of hexadecimal data up to 80 characters in length, where each hexadecimal value is bracketed by square brackets (e.g., [2b][3c]...[1c]).
4 Commands usage Parameter: Specifier Description: Displays how many modems fit the following parameters: received inbound calls, made outbound calls, were Out Of Service (OOS), were not respnding and were free per specified time intervals since the controller was last started (24 clock and specifier is in minutes). The example below shows the controller came up at 1:00 PM, has been running for 20 minutes and has taken 4 inbound calls.
MR9600-100 User Guide ver, version Parameter: None Description: Displays the current version of the MR9600’s firmware.

MR9600-100 User Guide Introduction This chapter provides information needed to identify and fix problems with the MR9600-100. Problems can be diagnosed by observing the LED indicators on the MR9600-100’s front panel, or through the dedicated management console’s screen. Also, problems can be found by performing the diagnostic tests documented in Chapter 8 of the MultiModemManager User Guide Manual.

Appendixes Appendix A - Connector Pinouts This appendix describes the RJ-45 connector pinouts, and discusses categories of Ethernet cabling.. RJ-45 Connectors Figure A-1 RJ-45 Connector The above figure shows the arrangements of the pins, while Table A-1 lists the pinouts. Table BA-1: RJ-45 Connector Pinouts Pin Signal 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 TD+ TDRD+ NC NC RDNC NC A schematic for crossover cables is shown in the following figure.
MR9600-100 User Guide Appendix B - Categories of Ethernet Performance The telecommunications industry has defined cable and cable component standards in terms of performance “categories”. The standards cover cable thickness, outer jacket material and thickness, etc. The categories specify the tests which the cable and components must pass to meet the standards. The two categories of test standards currently in use are Category 3 and Category 5.
Appendixes However, Cat 5 has some installation requirements that must be met: • Never use staples to mount or fix Cat 5 wiring. • Velcro is recommended in place of tie wraps. Wrap cable in bundles very loosely if you use tie wraps. • Never untwist the wire at the punch-down block or jack termination; the twists should remain right up to the termination. • Never strip off more jacket insulation than is required to make the termination. • Do not pull too hard on the cable (especially around corners).
