Introducing the ATLAS 800 PLUS Chapter 1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW PLUS The ATLAS 800 is a modular, highly scalable platform that provides ro- bust solutions for the wide area communication needs of medium-to-large corporations and network access providers. ATLAS is an Integrated Access System with the most extensive support of dedicated bandwidth manage- ment and access switching in the industry.
Chapter 1. Introducing the ATLAS 800PLUS The modules include the following: • Quad Nx 56/64 Module • Quad T1/PRI Module • Octal Basic Rate ISDN Module • T3 Module • Async-232 Module • Modem-16 Module Frame Relay Frame relay is a packet-switched service that allows efficient transfer of bursty traffic in a WAN environment.
Chapter 1. Introducing the ATLAS 800PLUS Frac T1 Frame Relay Figure 1-2. Frame Relay Circuit The Frame Relay/Router upgrade option adds the capability for the ATLAS series of Integrated Access Devices to act as a voice/data FRAD, a frame re- lay switch, and an IP router in addition to the current available bandwidth manager and switch applications.
Windows -based GUI management system can allow end-to-end management with downstream ADTRAN T1 products. User configurations can be preserved in non-volatile memory and duplicated for managing multiple ATLAS implementations. ATLAS also supports FLASH upgrades for future enhancements. You can remotely download software using TFTP or XMODEM.
ATLAS is ideal for point-to-point configurations or access to public networks. For optimization of existing equipment and network re- sources, ATLAS can be paired with ADTRAN’s TSU product offerings to support a variety of data and analog voice applications (see Figure 1-4).

Updating Firmware Chapter 11 OVERVIEW PLUS To provide feature enhancements in the future, ATLAS 800 supports firmware updating by field personnel. Two transfer methods are available for use in updating any modules that contain Flash memory, including the PLUS ATLAS 800 system controller.

(If necessary, refer to terminal emulation software documentation for help. Also, when specifying the filename, ensure that the file transferred is the one provided by ADTRAN. Otherwise, the update will not complete successfully.) Because XMODEM data is being transferred in-band through the menu interface, the VT-100 menus of ATLAS will be inoperable from the Chain-In port.
ADTRAN Technical Support at (888) 4ADTRAN (423-8726). • you must copy the update file provided by ADTRAN to a network serv- er that supports TFTP server requests. Record both the IP address of the server and the full path location of the update file to be downloaded.
If an error occurred during the update process, Previous Update Status displays the appropriate error message. In this case, return to step 3 and at- tempt the update process again. If the same error occurs, contact ADTRAN Technical Support. Table 11-1. TFTP Upload Messages...

SNMP Management Chapter 12 SNMP As local area network (LAN) environments became standardized over the past ten years, multivendor equipment grew with competition. It became necessary to manage various vendor equipment from a single control con- sole. Thus, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) emerged as the standard for managing commercial TCP/IP networks.
Chapter 12. SNMP Management SNMP TRAPS An SNMP trap is a message sent by a network device, such as the PLUS ATLAS 800 , to report an operational anomaly or alarm condition. Trap Destination List A trap destination list contains information about sites designated to receive SNMP traps.
DS1 Traps ATLAS supports RFC1406, the DS1 standard MIB, as well as the ADTRAN DS1 MIB, an extension to RFC1406. The ADTRAN DS1 group lets you send traps for DS1 Alarm Failures and Performance Threshold Crossing Alerts. The DS1 Alarm Table, defined in the ADTRAN DS1 extension MIB, contains entries that enable the status bits to send an Alarm Trap message.
Chapter 12. SNMP Management Table 12-3. DS1 SNMP Traps Alarm Severity Description Warning No alarms are present. adATLAS800NoAlarm Minor The Far end is experiencing Red Alarm adATLAS800RxYellow (a.k.a. Yellow Alarm). Warning The Near end is sending Loss Frame Indication adATLAS800TxYellow (a.k.a.

When one of the Total Alert thresholds is exceeded, the corresponding event bit is set to 1 in the adDS1TotalAlert variable in the DS1 alert table.
