Paradyne 1900 manual WAN Interface Cards, Passes VLAN Tagged Frames, MIU SNMP Functionality

1. BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM

Passes VLAN Tagged Frames

The BitStorm 1900 is capable of passing 802.1Q tagged Ethernet frames of 1522 bytes. To implement a VLAN solution, a 802.1Q tagging switch must exist upstream. Also, an 802.1Q tagging switch or device must be present on the customer end of the CPE modem.

WAN Interface Cards

The BitStorm 1900 supports the following WAN interface:

•MIU (Management Interface Card) – supports 10306 and 10224 modem cards

MIU SNMP Functionality

The MIU provides remote monitoring and configuration functionality via SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). Through the SNMP agent, users can remotely manage and configure modem settings and monitor the performance statistics of all modems in the BitStorm 1900 system.

The MIU SNMP agent supports the SNMPv1/RFC 1157 protocol and supports RFC 1213 MIB II interface groups and the RFC 1493 Bridge MIB. The MIU SNMP agent also includes an EtherLoop private MIB. In order to manage the SNMP agent, the user must load our private MIB into the user’s SNMP Network Manager using the procedure accompanying the specific Network Management Software (i.e., HP Openview, etc.).

A list of all supported MIBs and the private MIB can be found in document 1900-A2-GK40, BitStorm 1900 IP DSLAM Supported SNMP MIBs. This document and private MIBs can be downloaded from the Paradyne website at www.paradyne.com.
