  • Page 4: General Description

    Far End Fault occurs when the signal detection is logically false from the receive (incoming path) fiber port. When the GSM1010M detects a F/O Link Loss condition, the unit will automatically send a Far End Fault signal to the remote device (on its outgoing path).

The GSM1010M is equipped with a powerful link status alert and link testing mechanism - the “ Link Segmentation Test “ (LST), which allows the user to determine the behavior of the GSM1010M converter when a link failure is detected and notifies the Network device on the integrity of the link.

    • LST (middle LED): lit red implies idle signal is sent from port 2 (FO) in Test mode (TP>>FO command is executed) when data is not transmitted at the same time • MA active (bottom LED): steady lit (yellow): the GSM1010M is connected to a remote MA enabled and active device.

    Attach the single channel wall mount kit (SCH – WM part # B161) with two (supplied) screws to the base of the GSM1010M unit (select any 2 adjacent nuts: 1+2 or 3+4 or1+3 or 2+4) to achieve the desired mode of mounting. The screws to be fixed on the wall should not protrude more than 8mm.

    Make sure to use grounded (3 way) outlets (in case of AC models). For each country FibroLAN (or FibroLAN’s distributor) provide with the product an appropriate power supply cord which is safety approved in accordance with related country’s National Electric Code GSM1010M ( all models ) AC connection Connect to AC line socket at the rear of the converter, using the included power cord.

    11 - LST ( Link Segmentation Test ) The LST in the GSM1010M is used to notify one Network Device upon a link failure in the other Network Device, or in the opposite direction (Fault Propagation). The setting of the LST commands has absolutely no affect as long as no link failure is detected.
  • Page 14 If the configuration of Figure-3 is in LST OFF mode (via MA LST commands) and the main FO link fails (1000Base-LX link), the LST OFF will cause a link down condition at both Network Devices.

    GSM1010M Gigabit Converter (since the MA management is not operative in this case) it is necessary to power off/on the device and then to set the DIP switches to LST On to perform a link segmentation test. In GSM1010/MA the LED LST (FO) is steady red light to imply that the TP>>FO is constantly preset to LST ON (Test Mode).

    (section 18) 13 - SLE (Subscriber Link Emulation) When the remote device is a FibroLAN MA™ enabled product (GSM1010/MA or GSM1000/MA), the most powerful SLE feature may be deployed, further enhancing the network resilience. The drawing below is a typical SLE configuration.
  • Page 17 GSM1010M Gigabit Converter connected to the remote MA device, notifies the GSM1010M and cuts off the TP link of Master Unit, alerting in real time the switch/router of the subscriber failure. All this is performed without disrupting the main F/O link, thus ensuring on-going control of the remote device (CPE) via MA.

    Managed Network (1000Base-T to 1000Base-LX) Figure –5 SNMP Managed Network The GSM1010M Media Converter extends the distance of your LAN by converting a gigabit copper port (1000Base-T) into a GBE signal. The device provides conversion from a copper 1000Base-T into a MM (1000Base-SX) or SM (1000Base-LX) link allowing distance gain of up to 80Km transmission.
  • Page 19 This is a preferred configuration. When the remote MA enabled devices (GSM10x0/MA) are connected through their F/O link to a Master GSM1010M which is MA™ enabled and SNMP managed, a comprehensive set of monitoring and control functions can be implemented (through the Master GSM1010M) into GSM1000/MA or GSM1010/MA remote devices.

    Please note that all management traffic is transmitted out-of-band as it leaves the GSM1010M. At this point your GSM1010M is ready to be managed by any Network Manager, or any Telnet terminal running on the network. In order to obtain management functionality over the GSM1010M, you should install the MIB file and define the GSM1010M object in the management application (see next section).

  • Page 29: Configuring The Management Station

    GSM1010M Gigabit Converter 4. Configuring the Management Station Before you can begin to manage the GSM1010M from a management station using SNMP, you need to load and compile the MIB file(s) onto the management station. In order to accomplish this you need to perform two steps: Copy the MIB file, supplied with the device, to the default directory that contains all other MIB files (varies between management software packages).

  • Page 30: Managing The Gsm1010M

    5. Managing the GSM1010M device The recommended method for managing your GSM1010M is through a Telnet terminal program. When you open a Telnet session directed to the GSM1010M IP address, you will be prompted to enter a user name and password. These values can be set at the startup configuration setup, through the serial connection only (after power up).

  • Page 31: Snmp Management Station

    GSM1010M Gigabit Converter 6. SNMP Management You can monitor and control your GSM1010M media converter using SNMP with a management station. This station must have a management application and it should be connected to the converter through an In-Band network connection. This connection is achieved through either ports (TP or FO) of the device (this may depend on configuration).
