Prior to Installing the Router
These Installation Instructions assume that the virtual circuits at the DSLAM have already been configured. Provisioning of these circuits can be simplified by using the OpenLane SLM (Service Level Management) system, as indicated in Provisioning Data Circuits in OpenLane.
Provisioning Data Circuits in OpenLane
Use the OpenLane SLM system’s Provision Circuit screen to add new circuits that start at the FrameSaver DSL endpoint and traverse the SCM and ATM line card in the Hotwire GranDSLAM, and the default VC sets (from 1 to 4). A group of 250 VCs can be allocated to each line card, which can be assigned to any port on the card. These custom connections carry the frame relay traffic.
Note that before the custom
Tspecified on the Max VCI per VPI screen, and the apply changes executed.
For ATM line cards, custom connections can be used to expand the number of VCs connected to the card. Each of the 250 VCs can be
he following information is collected by the Provision Circuit process:
Uplink VPI/VCI
Slot number and Port number of the DSL connection
Traffic Profile
DSL link VPI/VCI
TFrame relay DLCI (provided by NSP) Frame relay CIR, Be, Bc (provided by NSP)
A Circuit ID is then applied to the newly defined circuit, and stored in both the router and the OpenLane SLM system.
