IPR*4 Router Card

21.10 IPR*4PPP Configuration Screens and Settings

The IPR*4 card displays the four ethernet ports and their current status on the main login
screen. The PPP link ports are not displayed at this level.
The IPR*4PPP card has 128 provisionable PPP WAN links available. Because of the interface
to 128 T1 or E1 ports, the IPR*4PPP cards take about a minute to initialize on power-up and
restarts. Some system interactions take longer then other cards when dealing with the
IPR*4PPP card such as in the case of accepting the card from a rejected (REJ) state. This
action will cause the user interface (UI) updates to cease as the IMACS provisions and
establishes the 128 WAN link configuration. The IMACS continues to operate during this
time, however the UI cannot be updated until the task completes.
The system can be configured in such a way as to allow the IMACS management port to come
over the PPP link. Figure 21-4 on page 21-6 shows the setup to manage this IMACS node
through the IPR*4 card. The default IP port noted in the figure is pointed to the IPR*4 server
card, which in this example resides in slot P1. Please note that when managing the IMACS
through the IPR*4 card, a change to the IMACS host CPU IP address may require that the
IPR*4 card be restarted (placed OOS) in order for the new IMACS IP address to be accessible.
