ITG Engineering Guidelines Page 129 of 378
ITG Trunk 2.0 ISDN Signaling Link (ISL) Description, Installation and Operation
guidelines with the router vendor for performance ramifications when
enabling WRED. If global synchronization is to be countered effe ctively,
WRED should be implemented at core and edge routers.
Use of Frame Relay and ATM services
IP can be transported over Frame Relay and ATM services, both of which
provide QoS-based delivery mechanisms. If the r outer can dis cern ITG traffic
by inspecting the TOS field or observing the UDP port numbers, it can
forward the traffic to the appropriate Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) or
Switched Virtual Circuit (SVC). At the data link layer, the differentiated
virtual circuits need to be provisioned . In Fr ame Relay, the differentiation is
created by having both “zero-Committed Information Rate (CIR)” and
CIR-based PVCs; in ATM, differentiation is created by having VCs with
different QoS classes.
Internet Protocols and Ports Used by ITG
The following IP applications and protocols ar e used by ITG 2.0, a nd must be
transmitted across the customers intranet by all IP routers and other network
equipment. This information should be validated and incl uded in the ITG
network engineering guidelines.

ITG uses the UDP and TCP port numbers for SNMP, Telnet, and FTP, i.e.
the default port numbers for these common IP applications.

ITG ISL Trunk card connections
10/100BaseT Ethernet ports
The ITG ISL Trunk card has two Ethernet ports. One 10 /100BaseT Ethernet
port on the DSP daughterboard, with connectors located on the faceplate or
on the I/O panel breakout cable, transmits Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic and
connects to the Telephony LAN, or T-LAN. A 10BaseT port on the
