Introduction to the TNE1544 and TNE1584 Paradyne's TNE1544 and TNE1584 are loop bonding network extenders for Paradyne's 12000 and 4000 IP Broadband Loop Carriers that provide up to 6 Mbps (TNE1544) or 12 Mbps (TNE1584) of symmetrical bandwidth using T1 lines. The TNE1544 features four T1 ports, and the TNE1584 eight T1 ports, each capable of up to 1.5 Mbps bandwidth.
Powering Up the Network Extender The DC power terminal block on the network extender has five terminals: two positive, two negative, and one ground. Only one positive terminal and one negative terminal pair need be connected for operational purposes. The second positive and negative terminal pair may be connected to a backup DC power supply for redundancy. The ground terminal must be connected regardlessly.
Connecting the T1 Lines The primary feature of the network extender is loop bonding capability, although both the provider and subscriber units are able to function with a single T1 connection. Loop Bonded Connection Using multiple T1 lines for one network connection (loop bonding) multiplies the speed and data passing capability of the network extender. Multiple T1 lines also act as a backup should any of the lines become disabled.
Single T1 Connection A single line connection can be established between a subscriber unit and any Paradyne T1 provider unit, regardless of loop bonding capability. Likewise, a single line connection can also be established between a provider unit and any of Paradyne's T1 subscriber units, regardless of loop bonding capability. Procedure 1. Plug the T1 cable into any of the T1 RJ48C ports on the back of the network extender. 2.
LED Indicators Table 2. LEDs (1 of 2) LED State Indication Additional Information 10/100 Ethernet Connections Lnk/Act Pulsing Green Standard operation Traffic is flowing without any problems. Solid Green Ethernet connection is established If the Ethernet Lnk LED is illuminated but not the Ethernet 100 LED then a 10 Mbps connection has been established. If the Ethernet 100 LED is also illuminated, then a 100 Mbps connection has been established.
Table 2. LEDs (2 of 2) LED State Indication Additional Information T1 Connections Lnk/Alm (Ports 1–4 or 1–8) Flashing Green* T1 connection is established and active Traffic is flowing. Solid Green T1 link A connection exists but there is indication of a problem with the T1 line. Solid Amber Remote Alarm Indication (RAI). The outgoing connection from the unit has been lost; no data is being transmitted. Yellow alarm.
Web Interface The network extender’s integral Network Management System (NMS) lets you configure and monitor the network extender using a standard web browser. To manage a Provider unit using NMS, connect your PC to any Ethernet port of the Provider unit. By default, the Subscriber unit can be managed by the NMS through its T1 and Ethernet ports, but you must first create a static entry for the unit in your PC’s ARP table.
Web Interface System Requirements Web Browser – Required for running NMS. Compatible web browsers include, but are not limited to, Microsoft Internet Explorer (v4.0 or higher) and Netscape Navigator (v4.0 or higher). NMS is optimized for use with Internet Explorer. Use your browser's default settings when running NMS. JavaScript must be enabled. Screen Resolution – 1024 x 768 pixels is the minimum resolution required for all NMS views to fit within the dimensions of most monitors and laptops.

From this screen you can: Click on . . . To configure . . . Management Config. IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, Inband Management VLAN ID and Priority Advanced Config. System Name and Location, Management IP Address Filter, TFTP and Telnet access HTTP Password General and Superuser Passwords SNMP Config.
Command Line Interface The network extender can be managed with a Command Line Interface (CLI) through either a direct PC to COM (Communication) Port connection or from a remote network connection via Telnet. CLI System Requirements Straight-Through 8-Pin Modular Ethernet Cable – Required for establishing a direct connection from the COM port to a DB9 adapter. DB9 Female to 8-Pin Modular Male Adapter – Required for conversion of your PC's RS232 serial port for use with the Ethernet cable.
Logging Into the CLI Once your terminal emulation program has been launched, device information is displayed, followed by a request for username and password. You must log in as a superuser in order to make configuration changes. Username: Password: superuser Password After you have logged in, enter a question mark (?) to list the available commands. Using the CLI to Establish Inband Management CLI Set commands are used to establish inband management. For example: set slot 1 ip_address 137.182.10.
