Configuring the FRSM Cards, Lines, and Ports

•line_num is the DS1 number in the range 1–56 to which you assign the DS0 when both lines are active. If you activate only one line, the range is 1–28. You can assign up to 24 contiguous DS0s to one DS1. Each physical line supports up to 28 DS1s. The number of DS0s cannot span more than DS1.

•ds0_speed is a number representing the DS0 speed: 1 for 56 Kbps or 2 for 64 Kbps.

•begin_slot is the beginning DS0 timeslot in 1 base. For example, on port number 50, you could make begin_slot=9 then specify num_slot to be in the range 1–16.

•num_slot is the number of DS0s in the associated DS1. Note that the number of DS0s cannot be such that the logical port spans more than DS1.

•port_type is a number representing the mode of operation for the logical port: 1 for Frame Relay; 2 for FUNI mode-1a; and 3 for frame forwarding.

For MGX-FRSM-HS1/B

addport <port_num> <port_type>

•port_num is the port number in the range 1–4.

•port_type is a number representing the type of frame interface technology for the logical port: 1 for Frame Relay; 2 for FUNI mode-1a; or 3 for frame forwarding.

For AX-FRSM-8T1 and AX-FRSM-8E1:

addport <port_num> <line_num> <ds0_speed> <begin_slot> <num_slot> <port_type>

•port_num is the logical port number in the range of either 1–192 for T1 or 1–248 for E1. When you subsequently add a connection through the preferred command addcon or the addchan command (which requires NSAP format), you must indicate a logical port by using this singular port_num regardless of the number of DS0s. (You can add 1–24 DS0s to a single line through the other addport parameters.)

•line_num is the physical line number in the range 1–8.

•ds0_speed is a number representing the DS0 speed: 1 for 56 Kbps or 2 for 64 Kbps.

•begin_slot is the beginning DS0 timeslot in 1 base. For example, on port number 50, you could make begin_slot=9 then specify num_slot to be in the range 1–16.begin_slotis the beginning timeslot in 1 base.

•num_slot is the consecutive DS0s that each connection on port_num has.

•port_type is a number representing the mode of operation for the logical port: 1 for Frame Relay; 2 for FUNI mode-1a; and 3 for frame forwarding.

Step 5 Modify as needed the signaling on a port by executing cnfport.

cnfport <port_num> <lmi_sig> <asyn> <elmi> <T391> <T392> <N391> <N392> <N393>

•port_num is the logical port number with a range that depends on the type of FRSM:

—For the MGX-FRSM-2CT3, 1–56

—For a channelized AX-FRSM-8T1, 1–192

—For a channelized AX-FRSM-8E1, 1–248

—For the unchannelized cards, the range equals the number of lines.

MGX-FRSM-HS2, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, MGX-FRSM-2CT3 specifications

Cisco Systems is a leader in networking technology and infrastructure, providing solutions that drive innovation and efficiency for businesses worldwide. Among its diverse range of products, the MGX series stands out as a pivotal component for the network-centric era, especially with models like MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2. These modules are primarily designed for the MGX 8800 series routers, facilitating efficient traffic management and service delivery.

The MGX-FRSM-2CT3 is a versatile module that supports two T3 connections. It allows network operators to seamlessly integrate high-capacity circuit-switched and packet-switched data on a unified platform. This versatility is crucial for service providers looking to enhance their bandwidth offerings while ensuring reliable performance across voice, video, and data applications.

In contrast, the MGX-FRSM-2T3E3 module caters to operators needing E3 support. This feature allows for efficient data transport over a broader bandwidth, catering to European standards. The E3 configuration is vital for service providers operating in Europe or regions that utilize E3 technology prominently.

The MGX-FRSM-HS2 module is another significant offering, designed to accommodate the increasing demand for high speed and high capacity. It supports higher-order TDM and packet technologies, enabling operators to implement advanced services such as VoIP, video conferencing, and other data-intensive applications. This module provides scalability and reliability, making it ideal for next-generation networks.

All three modules leverage Cisco’s advanced switching and routing technology, ensuring optimal performance and minimal latency. The integration of Quality of Service (QoS) features allows network administrators to prioritize traffic types effectively, ensuring mission-critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth.

Additionally, these MGX modules support various signaling protocols, enabling interoperability with existing network infrastructure while also facilitating the migration to newer technologies. They play an essential role in modernizing telecom networks, allowing service providers to adapt to changing market demands and technology landscapes.

In summary, the Cisco MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2 modules are key components for businesses looking to enhance their networking capabilities. With their robust support for T3 and E3 technologies, high scalability, and advanced QoS features, these modules empower service providers to deliver a wide range of services, drive innovation, and meet the growing demands of users in an increasingly connected world.
