Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 5 • DS0 Mapping Introduction To route traffic from one device connected to the T-DAC to another device (also connected to the T-DAC) you must define a DS0 mapping (also called an internal connection or cross-connection). An internal cross-connection carries traffic between the two external devices via the T-DAC. The external devices can be (but are not limited to) a T1/E1 NTU, a G.
PAGE 59
Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 5 • DS0 Mapping The following types of internal connections can be defined (note that DSL connections cannot be defined for the 2616RC: • Between a DSL port and a T1/E1 WAN port • Between a DSL port and another DSL port • Between a DSL port and an H.110 bus port • Between a T1/E1 WAN port and another T1/E1 WAN port • Between a T1/E1 WAN port and the H.

PAGE 63
Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 5 • DS0 Mapping To define value for the time slots parameter, you will enter a text string specifying which time slot numbers will be used for the channel. You must enter the text string using a prescribed notation comprised of the following elements: • Numerals—Use numerals (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) to represent time slot numbers • Comma—Use the comma (,) to separate non-contiguous timeslots.
PAGE 64
Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 5 • DS0 Mapping Fallback Port Type (daxFallbackTypegshDSL) This parameter defines the port type for the fallback channel. Select one of the following values from the dropdown menu: • none(0) • t1-e1(1) • gshDSL(4) (Model 3096RC) or iDSL(2) (Model 3196RC) • toH110(5) Note Selecting toH110(5) defines only the fallback transmit channel to the H.110 bus. You must also define the fallback receive channel from the H.

Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 5 • DS0 Mapping Fallback Port Slots (daxFallbackSlotH110) This parameter defines which time slots will comprise the fallback receive channel from the H.110 bus to the T-DAC for the fallback mapping. Use the same notation as for Watch Port Slots (see section “Watch Port Slots (daxWatchSlot)” on page 62).

Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide Note 5 • DS0 Mapping Both channels of the connection can be T1/E1 or both sides can be G.SHDSL (Model 3096RC) or iDSL (Model 3196RC) or just the B channel could be configured (in the event you needed to create an H.110 loopback). The options are: • none(0) • t1-e1(1)—T1/E1 WAN ports for connection to a T1/E1 WAN line • gshDSL(4)—G.SHDSL ports for connection to a G.

While IP filters are typically thought of as a security measure, many providers wish to limit some services a customer may have access to. These could include such things as limited access only to an e-mail server or proxy server.

The T-DAC’s PPP subsystem manages the T-DAC’s in-band management function over PPP links. This chapter discusses in-band management using PPP (for Frame Relay, see chapter “Frame Relay” on page 91). Any T1/E1 WAN link can carry user data, management information, or both.

Models 2616RC, 3096RC & 3196RC Admin Reference Guide 19 • System Log Introduction The T-DAC software provides a system log utility. The system log subsystem generates an event message for certain errors and significant occurrences within the T-DAC system. The T-DAC can store these system log messages in memory, or send them to another device for processing and/or monitoring by an operator. Each message type has a defined priority level.

Due to being permanent memory, the Flash memory eventually becomes filled. When this occurs, the memory must be cleared before accepting more messages. Some maximum number of messages may be stored in the Flash PROM before this storage area must be cleared.
