IES-1000 User’s Guide

6.4Port Bonding

The port bonding feature allows you to send IP packets over two to four G.SHDSL connections as a single connection. This can give increased bandwidth in LAN-to-LAN applications between IES-1000s.

You can easily select two to four G.SHDSL ports to bond together. IES-1000 checks the transfer rates of the individual G.SHDSL ports when they connect. The IES-1000 retrains any of the bonded ports that have a lower speed up to three times in an attempt to get them to reach the higher speed. If a port does not reach the higher speed (or at least within a 640 Kbps tolerance of the higher speed) by the third attempt, that port is dropped.

You can bond multiple groups of ports on a single IES-1000 (or even within a single SAM1008 module) as long as they do not overlap.

6.5Default Settings

The default profile always exists and all of the G.SHDSL ports belong to it when the SAM1008 is shipped. The default profile's name is set to DEFVAL.

6.5.1Default Profile Settings

The following are the settings of the default profile.

•Name: DEFVAL

•Minimum Transmission Rate: 192 Kbps

•Maximum Transmission Rate: 2304 Kbps

6.6G.SHDSL Commands

The commands related to one subsystem are grouped under a primary command of that subsystem, for instance, to configure the G.SHDSL parameters, you must first enter the G.SHDSL subsystem by entering the gshdsl command as shown next.

Syntax:

192.168.1.1> gshdsl

192.168.1.1 gshdsl>

When you see the 192.168.1.1 gshdsl> command line prompt, you are ready to enter G.SHDSL commands. Enter the home command to return to the “192.168.1.1>” prompt.

6.6.1Config Save Command

Syntax:

192.168.1.1 gshdsl> config save
