1.3 Functional Description
IPmux-24 provides TDM connectivity across the Ethernet, MPLS or IP network. A
single bundle (group of timeslots) can be transmitted in a TDM pseudowire (PW)
to a predefined far-end bundle. IPmux-24 supports ICMP (ping), and generates
ARP in case of unknown next hop MAC addresses, answers ARP requests, and
supports the 802.3 VLAN Ethernet format.
IPmux-24 includes one, two or four E1 or T1 ports. Traffic is transmitted over the
network as E1/T1 or fractional E1/T1, using the TDMoIP, CESoPSN, SAToP or
HDLCoPSN method.
IPmux-24 supports two Ethernet user ports for user LAN connectivity.
Configuration and management are provided via the IPmux-24 local terminal,
Web-based management utility, Telnet or RADview management tool (SNMP).
