Configuring a T1 Connection – p. 81
Chapter 6. Configuring a T1
Connection
NOTE: the data connection for the E1/T1 modem must
be setup as previously described in Chapter 5, Adding a
Modem to the XMTS
Three separate tools are necessary to configure a T1 connection:
The WMUconfigFileEditor is used to set the modem QoS (also referred to as Class of
Service) in the modem configuration file downloaded during the modem initialization
phase.
The NMS (Castlerock SNMPc) tool is the Network Management System used to monitor
and reconfigure the network on an ongoing basis. It accesses a MIB database stored in
the XMTS as well as a local version residing in the controlling computer. It is used here
to set specific XMTS parameters by launching the Vyyo Configuration tool.
The Java™-based Vyyo Configuration Tool is necessary to set the E1/T1 parameters
of the XMTS when adding a new modem to the network.
These tools may be used as directed in any order. They are described in the
following sequence:
1. The WMUconfigFileEditor is used to modify the modem
configuration file for T1 operation by adding a second Class of Service
(the first Class of Service was used for the data only connection).
Instructions are also given for setting/checking the upstream and
downstream parameters (which may have been previously set when
configuring the modem for data only operation).
2. The NMS tool is used to launch the Vyyo Configuration Tool to set the
XMTS upstream parameters, specifically the QoS (Quality of Service)
which is another name for the Class of Service. For older systems,
Instructions for using the Synoptics interface are given in Chapter 10,
Synoptics Display for XMTS Configuration.
3. The Vyyo Configuration Tool is required to bind the T1 ports of the
modem to the T1 ports of the XMTS.
