Paradyne 8784 manual IP Addressing Example, Peer IP Address Assignments

8. IP Addressing

Review the following information in preparation for selecting an IP addressing scheme.

Any legal host address is allowed for a given subnet. The address choice

Twithin the subnet is arbitrary.

A single route to a subnet is all that is needed to reach every device on a subnet. The unit’s routing table supports a maximum of 20 routes.

IP Addressing Example

See Figure 8-1, Peer IP Address Assignments, for an example of an IP addressing scheme. In the example, the Peer IP Address:

TRefers to the IP address of the unit configured as an NTU. Is assigned by the LTU.

	DSLAM
	MCC	NTU
	LTU	MCC Base
MCC		Address = 126.35.50.1
	87xx
	Port 1	MCC Base Subnet
	Peer IP Address = 126.35.1.5
	Port 2	Mask = 255.255.255.0
	Peer IP Address = 126.35.1.1	79xx NTU Backplane
	Port 3
		Address = 126.35.50.1
	Peer IP Address = 126.35.1.2	79xx
	Port 4
	Peer IP Address = 126.35.1.3	79xx
DSLAM
MCC Backplane
Address = 126.35.1.1

MCC Backplane
Mask = 255.255.255.0	99-16040-02

LTU Backplane

Address = 126.35.1.16
