    The SLC ConnectReach Access System enables cost-efficient delivery of voice and data services plus Internet access to subscribers by means of a T1/DSX-1 interface at a digital signal 1 (DS1) rate of 1.544 Mb/s. The SLC ConnectReach system is comprised of a flexible distribution terminal that performs the functions of a data service unit/channel service unit (DSU/CSU), fractional T1 multiplexer, channel bank, T1 drop/insert, router, firewall, and much more.
  • Page 34 Overview (Continued) Description (continued) By virtue of its integrated access, the SLC ConnectReach system provides a simple and comprehensive communications solution in which voice, data, and Internet access applications use a single T1 line (refer to the following figure). (Continued on next page)
  • Page 35 SLC-2000/SLC ConnectReach system. The SLC-2000 system and the SLC ConnectReach system normally use a hybrid signaling scheme, specified in TR-303/GR-303, that incorporates the use of robbed-bit signaling (RBS). The RBS signaling mode uses a small portion of the...
  • Page 36 System Description 363-208-050 Overview (Continued) The SLC ConnectReach system can be ordered in both AC and DC versions of Network interfaces systems that provide the T1/DSX-1 interface with the SLC-2000 HDT.

  • Page 38 Flexibility The SLC ConnectReach system allows bandwidth to be configured to meet the particular needs of a business as it grows. For example, for faster Internet service or more phone lines, you can remotely add a DS0 channel with a simple software configuration change instead of an on-site visit from a phone company technician.
  • Page 39 TR-08 local digital switch (LDS) interface. TR-303 LDS interface: The SLC-2000 HDT’s TR-303 interface allows the SLC ConnectReach system to interface with the LDS using a high line concentration ratio, thus providing an efficient DS1 interface to the LDS. This can produce significant cost savings for your network.

    (TR-08 and TR-303). NOTE: The SLC ConnectReach system will not be able to implement all of the test capabilities of the SPQ440C channel unit; however, the SLC ConnectReach system will respond to test messages with stable responses.
  • Page 47 Bandwidths greater than 64 kb/s can be constructed by mapping as many as 24 contiguous data DS0 signals. Since the SPQ452 channel unit is emulated by the router function embedded in the mother board of the SLC ConnectReach system, the use of a separate circuit card is unnecessary.
  • Page 48 The SPQ456 channel unit is normally provisioned by means of software for a loss of either 0 or 2.5 dB. However, in the SLC ConnectReach system, provisioning messages will determine the setting and the 2.5-dB loss option will be mapped to the SLC ConnectReach system option of 3.0 dB of loss.
  • Page 49 Data transmitted on the secondary T1/DSX-1 line is in the clear channel format. Even though the SPQ452 channel unit is a dual port unit, the SLC ConnectReach system allows up to four DS0 signal time slots to be mapped to data for every SPQ452 channel unit emulated.

  • Page 507 Configuring Enterprise NAT About This Appendix Introduction This Appendix describes the configuration and applications of Enterprise NAT. Contents -XQH  Issue 4...
  • Page 508 363-211-129 Appendix E Enterprise NAT Overview Two utilizations of network address translation (NAT) are supported on the SLC ConnectReach system; NAT that allows translation of internal (LAN) IP addressed workstations to external (WAN) addresses (LAN-to-WAN), and Enterprise NAT, which allows translation of IP addresses for workstations at remote offices to WAN IP addresses (WAN-to-WAN), by means of Frame Relay PVCs.
  • Page 509  $SSHQGL[ ( IP Address Translation for Enterprise NAT allows the translation of any range of LAN IP addresses to another range of Introduction WAN IP addresses. The key difference between NAT in previous VINA products and Enterprise NAT is that with Enterprise NAT, the LAN side of the remote workstation can be logically attached to the LAN side of the Corporate HQ network.
  • Page 510 363-211-129 Appendix E IP Address Translation for Enterprise NAT (Continued) The translation procedure is as follows. Procedure Step Procedure At the config prompt, enter the NAT command: (config)> NAT The prompt changes to the config:NAT prompt. ( config:NAT )> At the config:NAT prompt, enter the enable on command, and then Dynamic command.
  • Page 511  $SSHQGL[ ( IP Address Translation for Enterprise NAT (Continued) Procedure (continued) Step Procedure At the submenu-group prompt enter the enable on command, then the Start and End commands for the in range and the out range. See the table below; the IP addresses refer to the commands used in the ENAT example (shown in the figure below) to create Group1.
  • Page 512 363-211-129 Appendix E IP Address Translation for Enterprise NAT (Continued) Procedure (continued) Step Procedure To create a second group enter a number for it, and then another set of Start and End commands. In the example, Group 2 has an in-Start address of 192.168.5.1 and an in-End address of 192.168.5.254, while the out-Start address is 213.213.213.1 and out-End address of 213.213.213.1.
  • Page 513  $SSHQGL[ ( PVC Configuration for ENAT Each PVC submenu allows the user to configure the DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier), IP commands and NAT (ENAT) options. There are three possible settings for NAT; they are Pass, In and Out. Setting the NAT option to Pass allows all incoming and outgoing IP packets to bypass the dynamic NAT translation function on the designated PVC (in the ENAT example, PVC1allows the management PC at the NOC to bypass NAT).
  • Page 514 363-211-129 Appendix E PVC Configuration for ENAT (Continued) Procedure (continued) Step Procedure At the config:Frame-relay prompt, enter PVC n where n is any number from one to thirty. (config:Frame-relay)> PVC 1 The prompt changes to the config:FrameRelay:PVC1 prompt. ( config:FrameRelay:PVC1 )> At the config:FrameRelay:PVC1 prompt, enter the ip-address command, and either enet (to assign the primary Ethernet IP address for NAT incoming or pass-through), or the WAN IP address for NAT outgoing.
  • Page 515 (an NOC, for example), and a centrally located SLC ConnectReach system. In Figure F-1 three PVCs are shown, all of which have been configured with NAT on the SLC ConnectReach system at the Corporate Headquarters.
