Turn-up Procedure for Inband Management

Procedure

To turn up the GranDSLAM 4200 using inband management:

1.Manual Mode: At the unit, configure the IP address, net mask, and next-hop router.

DHCP Mode: Set the ATM1 physical address using the ED-IPPORT command (see ED-IPPORTin Chapter 8, IP Access Commands), or accept the default, which is based on the MAC address assigned to the unit.

Later, when determining what IP address has been assigned via DHCP, look for the MAC address in the DHCP server table. The assigned address is normally the address of the Ethernet port with the ATM physical address appended (0101 for ATM-1 or 0202 for ATM-2). The RTRV-IPPORT command retrieves IP port configuration information (see RTRV-IPPORTin Chapter 8, IP Access Commands).

2.At the NOC, build a PVC through the network to the unit using VPI/VCI 0,32 and 1483 routed encapsulation. Then, configure routers, etc., as necessary to route data from the NOC to the GranDSLAM 4200.

3.Enable security for your GranDSLAM 4200 unit. Using the TL1 command ENT-USER-SECU, change the default login and password. Use the EMS to configure SNMP community strings, the SYSLOG server, and trap managers.

4.Change the time, if necessary. The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP), which maintains the unit’s clock, defaults to enabled for multicast. However, you can change the time offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) using the TZOFFSET parameter of the SET-NE-ALL TL1 command. See SET-NE-ALLin Chapter 14, System Commands for more information.

Turn-up Procedure for Out-of-Band Management

In out-of-band management, you are managing the unit using the Ethernet interface. This port is configured through the Console port.

Procedure

To turn up the GranDSLAM 4200 using the Ethernet interface:

1.At the unit, enable the Ethernet port.

2.Manual Mode: Assign an IP address, netmask, and next-hop router.

DHCP Mode: Configure the DHCP server out of the Ethernet port.

3.Configure routers, etc., as necessary to route data from the NOC to the GranDSLAM 4200.

4.Reset the DHCP server and the SNTP since they default to managing from the ATM interface (inband management).
