SNMP) provides a reliable, high speed data connection for customer data terminal equipment (DTE) through digital data service (DDS) lines. The DSU IV ESP has an embedded SNMP (simple network management protocol) agent that provides complete SNMP access to the unit through an integral SLIP or PPP async port.
Chapter 1. Introduction The DSU IV ESP provides both V.35 and EIA-232 electrical and physical DTE interfaces to accommodate a variety of applications. To ensure a reliable connection, the unit features an extended receiver capability which permits operation over long loops (3.4 miles or 5.5 km of 26 AWG at 56 kbps).
DDS customers and may provide data for routing InterLATA to an interexchange carrier. In DDS mode, the DSU IV ESP supports 2.4 to 64 kbps DDS service rates yielding DTE rates of 2.4, 4.8, 9.6, 19.2, 38.4 (sync or async), 56 kbps, and 64 kbps.
The DSU IV supports the MIB-II standard, RFC 1213, and ADTRAN Enterprise Specific MIB. MIB files are available from ADTRAN in the support section of the ADTRAN webpage at www.adtran.com. The DSU IV's embedded SNMP feature allows the unit to be...

Quick Operation During Critical Times The DSU IV ESP allows the user to select the conditions that initiate the dial backup mode. The factory default enables DBU mode upon detection of these conditions. The following four conditions can cause a DSU IV ESP to enter dial backup mode:...
The DBU Answer Test is disabled if this option is chosen. Operation During Noncritical Times The DSU IV ESP may be configured not to enter dial backup mode if data terminal ready (DTR) is low. This feature prevents the DSU IV ESP from entering dial backup during noncritical times such as nights and weekends.
Chapter 4. Applications Conditions for Returning to the DDS Circuit The DSU IV ESP can be configured to automatically revert to the DDS circuit from the dial backup mode or wait to be returned to the DDS manually. Once the DSU IV ESP enters dial backup mode, the unit polls the DDS circuit once every 100 ms to determine if the condition causing the DDS circuit failure has been corrected.

DTE & Loop (LL) The DTE & L test splits the DSU IV ESP into two separate DTE and loop interface sections and then loops the receive data of each interface back to its respective transmit data. The DTE & L test provides a bidirectional loopback at the DSU/CSU.
The L (RT) test allows the loop interface and a major portion of the DTE interface for the local DSU IV ESP to be tested from the remote site over the actual communication circuit. Figure 13-6 illustrates the loopback point and the signal paths for this test.
The DTE O test provides a method for testing both the DTE interface drivers and receivers of the local DSU IV ESP plus its loop transmitter and receiver. For this test, the loop transmit data is connected to the loop receive data at a point close to the physical network interface.
DSU using the DSU/CSU internal test pattern generator. This test can be used to detect deficiencies within the internal drivers and receivers of the DSU IV ESP. Figure 13-8 illustrates the loopback point and the data paths for this test.
Chapter 13. Testing and Troubleshooting Interpreting Test Results If the unit is functioning properly, the DSU IV ESP displays: DTE WITH TP TST ERR=XX The first line of the display indicates the type of test being performed, while the second line of the display indicates the number of errors accumulated by the test pattern detector.
Chapter 13. Testing and Troubleshooting Test Pattern The T option converts the local DSU IV ESP into a ATTERN BERT tester for the purpose of testing the DDS circuit. If this test is used, the remote DSU/CSU must be in loopback or transmitting a test pattern.
Chapter 13. Testing and Troubleshooting Self Test The S verifies current operation of the DSU IV ESP. It can be performed at any time and is recommended if there is any question about the DSU's health. Test Purpose The purpose of this test it to determine if the DSU is functioning properly.
Chapter 13. Testing and Troubleshooting REMOTE UNIT DIAGNOSTICS A remote DSU IV ESP can perform seven different tests; see Table 13-5. Table 13-5. Remote Tests and AT Commands Front Panel Description Command 1 - 2047 Pattern _T0&T7 Standard 2047 random data pattern.

ADTRAN DSU/CSU units will operate in this configuration. ADTRAN does not recommend the tail circuit mode due to the potential for clock slippage and data loss when using this configuration. Moreover, further problems can occur when each DDS circuit is using a different master clock source and will require additional hardware called a tail cir- cuit buffer to reduce the risk of data overruns and clock slips.
