Installation

Installation of the router card into the Adit chassis.

λUnit can be on or off

λRouter card will work in any slot

λSlide card into slot until fully seated

λRouter has completed it’s boot cycle when CRD light is solid

The following setups are all executed with CLI

NOTE: Configuration can be done with the following CLI commands or with the Router Menu-Driven Software.

Basic Setup

Command

set {ds0-addr} type data

connect {slot:port:trunk} {slot:port:channel}

set {router-addr} proxy

set {slot:port} up

telnet {router_card-addr}

Local and Remote Profile Setup reinitialize

Description

Confirm DS0 is set to type data. ds0-addr = {slot:port:channel} of DS0 Example: set a:1:1-24 type data

Cross-connect T1 to router card.

Example: connect a:1:1-24 6:1:1 (router in slot 6)

Disable/enable router proxy. router-addr = {slot:port} of router card. Example: set 6:1 disable.

Set Router LAN as In-Service.

Example: set 6:1 up

Telnet to Router card.

router_card-addr = {slot} location of router card Example: telnet 6 (if earlier than 3.0 release {slot:port} must be used)

To enable any configuration changes, the card must be reinitialized.

Terminal Server Router specifications

The Carrier Access Terminal Server Router (CATSR) is an advanced network device designed to facilitate efficient data transfer and management in telecommunications infrastructures. Specifically developed for environments requiring robust access solutions, CATSR integrates multiple functionalities, including routing, switching, and terminal services.

One of the key features of the CATSR is its ability to support both dial-up and broadband connections, making it versatile in accommodating various user needs. This capability is particularly beneficial in areas with differing access requirements, ensuring seamless integration as network demands evolve. The router typically supports a range of WAN protocols, including Frame Relay, ATM, and MPLS, which allows for flexible deployments tailored to organizational requirements.

Another prominent characteristic of the CATSR is its significant port density. With multiple serial and Ethernet ports, it can connect numerous devices simultaneously, facilitating large-scale operations in both enterprise and service provider environments. This feature reduces the need for additional hardware, optimizing both space and budget considerations.

Advanced security features are also inherent in the CATSR design. It employs state-of-the-art encryption algorithms and protocols to safeguard data in transit. Additionally, access control lists (ACLs) and role-based authentication mechanisms provide granular control over who can access specific resources within the network. Such features are crucial in protecting sensitive information against unauthorized access and cyber threats.

The CATSR is built using advanced networking technologies such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and Quality of Service (QoS). VoIP capabilities enable the integration of voice traffic over the data network, thus reducing costs and enhancing communications. Meanwhile, QoS technologies prioritize critical applications and manage bandwidth to ensure optimal performance across various services.

Moreover, the ability to monitor and manage the CATSR through centralized network management systems helps network administrators maintain an efficient and responsive network. Tools for analytics and reporting are integrated to facilitate troubleshooting and performance optimization.

In summary, the Carrier Access Terminal Server Router is a multifunctional device designed to meet the diverse needs of modern telecommunications. With its robust feature set, advanced security measures, and support for leading-edge technologies, the CATSR is an indispensable tool for businesses and service providers seeking reliable and efficient network solutions. As demand for data continues to grow, devices like the CATSR play a crucial role in the framework of internet connectivity and communication.
