    A tenant connects a PC to the phone line in a unit using an ADSL modem. The other end of the phone line is connected to a port on the AES-100. The AES-100 aggregates the traffic from the tenants to the Ethernet port and forwards it to a router.

    Table 2-2 Front Panel Indicators INDICATOR DESCRIPTION The SYS LED indicates the operational status of the AES-100. It is steadily on when power is applied and the AES-100 is functioning normally. LINK The LINK LED is steadily on when the LAN port link is up.
  • Page 15: Rear Panel

    The following figure shows the rear panel of the AES-100. Connect one end of the power cord to the receptacle labeled AC INPUT on the rear panel of your AES-100 and the other end to the power outlet. Please make sure that no objects obstruct the smooth free-flowing operation of the fan (to the left of the power receptacle).
  • Page 17: Chapter 3 Software Configuration

    This section describes the general software configuration of the AES-100. Command Line Interface The AES-100 uses text command lines as the user interface for software configuration. Before discussing the details of configuration, the rules of the commands are listed below.
  • Page 18: Command Structure

    AES-100 Command Structure The system uses a two-level command structure. The commands related to one subsystem are grouped under a primary command of that subsystem, e.g., to configure the ADSL parameters, you must first enter the ADSL subsystem by entering the command.
  • Page 19: Restart Command

    AES-100 3.4.3 Restart Command Syntax: restart command instructs the system to perform a warm start, i.e., restarting the system without turning restart the power on and off. 3.4.4 Passwd Command Syntax: passwd command changes the management password. The management password is used for authentication passwd during console or telnet login.
  • Page 21: Chapter 4 Adsl Configuration

    ADSL ports. ADSL standards The AES-100 supports both the G.lite and the G.dmt standards. G.lite is intended to minimize the cost for the consumer market and limits the speed to 1.5 Mbps (megabits per second) downstream (AES-100 to user) and 512 Kbps upstream (user to AES-100), while G.dmt support up to 8 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream.
  • Page 22: Disable Ports Command

    AES-100 where <port number> = port number, from 1 to 8 command forcibly disables the specified ADSL port. disable port The factory default of all ports is disabled. A port must be enabled before data transmission can occur. An enabled but disconnected ADSL port generates more heat than an operating port. To minimize heat generation and to enhance reliability, remember to disable a port when it is not in use.

    ADSL port. Note that the upstream speed must be less than or equal to the downstream speed. The mode parameter specifies the standard that this port is allowed. When set to auto, the AES-100 follows whatever mode is set on the other end of the line. This mode is allowed but strongly discouraged, since the user equipment may or may not have been configured properly.
  • Page 29: Chapter 5 Ip Configuration

    2. Have a complete diagram showing the whole network. 3. Record the IP parameters assigned to the equipment in your network. Setting IP address To set the IP address and the subnet mask of the Ethernet port of the AES-100, use the following command sequence: 1. 192.168.1.1> ip 2.
  • Page 30: Management By Telnet

    Management by Telnet After you have set up the IP parameters and connect the AES-100 to the network, you can manage it remotely with telnet. You can use any telnet client that is convenient to you. The configuration procedures with telnet are exactly the same as those using the direct connection via the console port.
  • Page 31: Snmp Access Configuration

    An SNMP managed network consists of two main components: agents and a manager. An agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (AES-100). An agent translates the local management information from the managed device into a form compatible with SNMP. The manager is the station through which network administrators perform network management functions.
  • Page 32: Snmp Trap Configuration

    This command shows the allowed access. 5.3.2 SNMP Trap Configuration The AES-100 uses the SNMP trapping facility to proactively report unusual events to one or more trap servers. To configure the trap parameters, use the commands in the IP subsystem. After configuring the...

    AES-100 Trap Delete Command Syntax: snmp trap delete <community> <IP addr> [<port>] This command deletes a trap destination. The arguments are the same as the command. snmp trap add Trap Flush Command Syntax: snmp trap flush This command deletes all trap destinations.
  • Page 34: Route Manipulating Commands

    Route Manipulating Commands If the AES-100 needs to talk to a host not on the local Ethernet, then it must have routing information in order to forward its packets to the right gateway. Generally speaking, you only need a default route for all destinations, however, the route manipulating commands are available for you to manage any routes.
  • Page 35: Statistics Command

    AES-100 routes This command shows all the IP forwarding routes. 5.4.4 Statistics Command Syntax: stats <sub cmd> This command shows the statistics for the traffic of the type specified by the sub-command. Statistics are available for the following traffic type: ARP, ICMP, IP, raw, TCP and UDP.
  • Page 37 On the AES-100, wait for the update to complete and then restart AES100. Extreme caution: Do not turn off the AES-100 when the updating process is in progress, as it may corrupt the firmware and make your AES-100 unusable.
