Introduction

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The ADTRAN IQ Probe provides the visibility and control needed for both the physical and logical connections made in frame relay networks. The IQ Probe provides logical layer monitoring and management for frame relay. Each permanent virtual circuit (PVC) accessed through an IQ Probe is managed end-to-end as if it were a leased line connection. Real-time statistics on throughput, bandwidth utilization, availability, bursting, congestion, and network delay are collected and stored. The statistics are viewable through the IQ Probe using the front panel, the VT 100 interface, or the Frame IQ MIB (management information base). This information can be gathered by management systems via SNMP (simple network management protocol) and used to monitor network health and perform long-term network planning.

The unit's embedded SNMP agent provides complete SNMP access to the unit. SNMP access is available through the DTE or DCE port or through an integral SLIP (serial line internet protocol) or PPP (point-to-point protocol) async port. The IQ Probe also provides integrated 10baseT ethernet access for SNMP.

The following are features of the IQ Probe:

Complete and comprehensive frame relay monitoring

Real-time measurement of bandwidth utilization, committed
