Provisioning Data Circuits Before Installation
Before installing the router, use the OpenLane SLM system's Provision Circuit screen to
add:
T
New circuits that start at the FrameSaver DSL endpoint and traverse the SCM and
ATM line card in the Hotwire
T
The default VC sets (from 1 to 4)
A group of 250 VCs can be allocated to each line card, which can be assigned to any
port on the card. These custom connections carry the frame relay traffic.
Note that before the custom cross-connections are configured, the Maximum VCI
number for the uplink VP to be used by these custom connections must be specified on
the Max VCI per VPI screen, and the apply changes executed.
For ATM line cards, custom connections can be used to expand the number of VCs
connected to the card. Each of the 250 VCs can be cross-connected from any VC on the
uplink to any port on the line card.
The following information is collected by the Provision Circuit process:
T
Uplink VPI/VCI
T
Slot number and Port number of the DSL connection
T
Traffic Profile
T
DSL link VPI/VCI
T
Frame relay DLCI (provided by NSP)
T
Frame relay CIR, B
A Circuit ID is then applied to the newly defined circuit, and stored in both the router and
the OpenLane SLM system.
