1.3 Functional Description

IPmux-1/1E provides TDM connectivity across the IP/Ethernet network. A single bundle (group of timeslots) can be transmitted to a predefined far-end bundle. IPmux-1/1E supports ICMP (ping), and generates ARP in case of unknown next hop MAC addresses, answers ARP requests, and supports 802.3 VLAN Ethernet format.

IPmux-1/1E supports a variety of interfaces: E1/T1, ISDN BRI and Analog POTs. Traffic is transmitted over the network as E1/T1 or Fractional E1/T1, using the TDMoIP method.

IPmux-1/1E supports an Ethernet user port for user LAN connectivity.

Configuration and management are provided via the IPmux-1/1E local terminal, Telnet or RADview management tool (SNMP).
