Eight-Port Circuit Emulation Service Modules

Step 3 Create a logical port with addport if the application requires N x 64-Kbps channels:

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

•port_num is the logical port number in the range 1–192 for T1 or 1–248 for E1

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

•begin_slot is the beginning timeslot number in the frame: for T1, 1–24. For E1 2–32 with CCS signaling or 2–16 and 17–32 with CAS signaling.

•

•

num_slot is the number of timeslots in the frame for the current port (port_num).

port_type is: 1=structured, 2=unstructured, 3=framing on VC disconnect.

Step 4 Configure resources at the port level as needed by executing cnfportrscprtn:

cnfportrscprtn <port_num> <controller_name>

•port_num is the logical port number in the range 1–192 for T1 or 1–248 for E1.

•controller_name is the name of the network control application. Enter one of the following strings: PAR, PNNI, or MPLS.

Configuring Bulk Distribution and Redundancy

You can configure either bulk distribution or redundancy or both according to the restrictions in “Redundancy Support for the Eight-Port CESM.” On the CLI of the PXM, execute addlink for bulk distribution (T1 only) before you execute addred for redundancy. To configure bulk distribution:

•Execute addlink to create the links:

addlink <T3 line number> <T1 line number> <Target Slot number> <Slot line number>

T3 line number

is the MGX-SRM-3T3/B line number in the format slot.line. The slot

 

can be 15 or 31. The range for port is 1–3

T1 line number

is the starting T1 line number within the T3 line. The range for the T1

 

line number is 1–28.

Target Slot number

is slot number for the T1 service module.

Slot line number

is T1 line number in the range 1–8.

•Execute addred:

addred <redPrimarySlotNum> <redSecondarySlotNum> <RedType>

redPrimarySlotNum

is the primary slot. For the redundancy bus (no bulk

 

distribution), valid slot numbers are 1–6, 9–14, 17–22,

 

and 25–30. With bulk distribution of T1 channels, do

 

not specify 9, 10, 26, or 26.

redSecondarySlotNum

is the secondary slot. For the redundancy bus (no bulk

 

distribution), valid slot numbers are 1–6, 9–14, 17–22,

 

and 25–30. With bulk distribution of T1 channels, do

 

not specify 9, 10, 26, or 26.

RedType

is the type of redundancy. A 1 specifies 1:1 for E1 with

 

SMB connectors. A 2 specifies 1:N for T1 or E1.

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.
