    Network Service Module AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 NSMs The AT-AR041 NSM provides eight Basic Rate ISDN S/T WAN ports (Figure 3 on page 8), while the AT-AR042 NSM provides four Basic Rate ISDN S/T WAN ports (Figure 4 on page 8). In both cases the ports use RJ-45 connectors and provide TE interfaces.
  • Page 9 Hardware Reference Figure 5: Location of jumpers on BRI NSMs. RJ45 and LED blocks Jumper set to Not Terminated Jumper set to Terminated (Factory default) There are two jumpers per port. The AT-AR041 NSM, therefore, has sixteen jumpers, while the AT-AR042 NSM has eight jumpers.

  • Page 13: Ds3 Interface

    Hardware Reference but at a reduced rate. The NSM should not be installed in a switch whose serial number ends in the letter i or lower. The serial number is located on the switch’s underside. For more information, including a sample serial number, see “Compatible Base Units For NSMs”...
  • Page 14 Network Service Module To test an AR048 DS3 interface, connect a 75-ohm RG59 cable between the transmit and receive BNC connectors and enter: ENABLE TEST INTERFACE=DS3 n where n is the interface number. Alternatively, enter the command: ENABLE TEST INTERFACE=EXPANSION In both cases the tests will run for 4 minutes.
  • Page 15: Hot Swapping

    Flash. The AT-AR040 NSM can be hot swapped with PICs installed in its PIC bays. There is no need to remove the PICs before hot swapping. See “Behaviour of Hot Swapped Interfaces”...
  • Page 16 Network Service Module To hot swap an NSM: Prepare the NSM bay for hot swap If the In Use LED (next to the NSM bay) is lit, use a pencil tip or similar object to press the recessed Hot Swap button. The In Use LED should go out and the Swap LED should light.

    If one thumbscrew becomes tight before the other, loosen it slightly before proceeding. Installing PICs in the AT-AR040 NSM If you have PICs to install, install them now by following the Port Interface Card Quick Install Guide. If there are more PIC bays than PICs, use the bays on the switch or router base unit first, then fill the NSM PIC bays, starting with bay 0.
  • Page 18 Network Service Module The switch or router does not update the MAC address of any hot-swapped Ethernet interface until the switch or router is restarted. The SHOW INTERFACE command is modified to show “Swapped out” in the ifOperStatus column for dormant interface instances (see Figure 12 on page 18 and Figure 13 on page 18).

    This section provides information on LEDs for NSMs and related hardware. AT-AR040 NSM The AT-AR040 NSM unit has no independent LEDs. See Table 5 on page 21 for information about related LEDs found on the base-unit switch or router. C613-03022-00 REV F...
  • Page 20 Network Service Module AT-AR041 and AR042 NSMs The AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 have two LEDs per port. The LEDs are located on the NSM’s face-plate. Table 3: AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 LEDs. State Function Active Green Lit when the BRI has successfully completed the exchange of INFO 1 and INFO 2 signals, and INFO 3 and INFO 4 signals are present on the link.
  • Page 21 1. Hot swapping is supported by software release 2.3.1 or later. PIC LEDs The following tables may be helpful when diagnosing possible AT-AR040 NSM operational faults. These LEDs are located on the face-plate of the respective PIC. PICs are expansion options and must be purchased separately.
