Managing Devices Behind the DSLAM Chassis
A Device Display for the various DSLAM chassis displays the cards configured
for each chassis. The Device Display for a DSLAM chassis varies depending on
the type of chassis selected. There are three types of DSLAM chassis:
H The 8600 DSLAM chassis is an independent, standalone system that
consists of three slots, with one slot reserved for the MCC card and the
remaining slots used to house the DSL cards. However, this chassis provides
a stackable design that allows up to six systems to share management
access through a single MCC card, which in turn, frees an additional slot for a
DSL card in the remaining stacked systems.
In a stacked configuration, the base chassis must contain the MCC card in
Slot 1, while the other two slots can house up to two DSL cards. Each
additional chassis in the stack can house up to three DSL cards.
H The 8800 DSLAM chassis is a 20-slot system designed to house 18 DSL
cards and one MCC card. The remaining slot is reserved for future use.
H The 8810 DSLAM chassis is designed for high-density cards. It is a 20-slot
system with integral power, alarm, cooling, and interface subsystems that is
designed to house up to 18 DSL cards and one MCC card. The remaining
slot is reserved for future use.
Each DSL card in a chassis can have up to four interfaces and a single endpoint
can be connected to each interface. The 5446 and 79
xx endpoints have an
SNMP agent which can be managed directly by the DCE Manager. The
remaining endpoints are proxied on the DSL cards.
You can launch a Device Display for the 5446 and 79 xx endpoints from a Device
Display of a DSLAM chassis that contains a corresponding 8546 DSL or 87 xx
card or an OpenView device submap as described in the following procedures.
