OnSite Plug ‘n’ Play

The OnSite Plug ‘n’ Play feature allows ISPs, carriers and PTTs to quickly upgrade the link speed for a cus- tomer without requiring a visit to re-configure the Customer Premise (CP) Model 3088A. This feature also allows service providers to set up all of the configurations at the Central Office (via the ForeFront AIS system) before installing the stand alone units, saving time spent configuring or re-configuring DIP switches.

Note OnSite Plug ’n’ Play is only available when using a ForeFront Model 3096RC running software release 1.5.7 or later. Since the 3096RC is CO, the OnSite must be CP, which is the default.

The OnSite Plug ‘n’ Play feature allows the user to configure the CP unit via the ForeFront Model 3096RC at the Central Office (CO). The stand alone unit at the Customer Premise (CP) site will automatically configure itself to the DTE rate (Bandwidth Allocation) defined at the Model 3096RC. Other configuration parameters may likewise be modified from their default setting.

Follow the instructions below to activate OnSite Plug ‘n’ Play between CO (Model 3096RC and CP (Model

3088A) units:

•Set the Model 3096RC (CO) to either Internal or External clocking mode as defined by the application.

When the CO and CP units connect over DSL, the CP will enter a predefined default configuration (Receive Recovered Clocking). During the negotiation process, the CO unit will configure the DTE rate/line rate on the CP unit as defined by the settings of the CO unit.
