DDS customers and may provide data for routing Inter-LATA to an inter-exchange carrier. The DSU IQ supports 56 or 64 kbps DDS service rates yielding DTE rates of 56 kbps and 64 kbps.
SNMP environments, VT-100 and front panel operation is supported. The DSU IQ's embedded SNMP feature allows the unit to be accessed and controlled by a network manager through the DTE or network port, through a device running SLIP or async PPP protocol (connected to the CONTROL port of the DSU), or through a LAN.
Chapter 1. Introduction TELNET Telnet provides a password-protected, remote login facility to the DSU IQ. Telnet allows a user on a network manager to control the DSU IQ through the terminal menus. DIAL BACKUP OPERATION The DSU IQ dial backup (DBU) option cards allow frame relay circuit outage recovery for one user-to-network interface (UNI) at a time.
Rate ISDN service provides a switched 56/64 kbps circuit. DCE Card This module connects an external DCE device to the DSU IQ for the purpose of using an external DSU/CSU to support access rates up to 512 kbps. The DCE card is inserted into the DBU card slot, but it is not used for dial backup.

However, to use in-band management, the management DLCI must be RFC 1490 encapsulated IP traffic. MANAGEMENT APPLICATIONS One of the main advantages of the DSU IQ is management flexibility. The DSU IQ front panel interface provides complete configuration capabilities and viewing of key frame relay statistics information.
Chapter 4. Applications Local VT-100 Terminal Management Connect a VT-100 terminal to the DSU IQ Control port. This interface provides full-screen configuration and all-inclusive statistics access. VT-100 management also allows for remote configuration. Through this port, a remotely located DSU IQ is fully accessible for configuration, diagnostics, and statistics viewing.

Once these options are configured, the unit may be accessed using SNMP/Telnet. Control Port Mode If necessary, select SLIP or PPP as the DSU IQ Control port mode. If the ethernet card is the interface type, this parameter does not affect setup.
Local PVC Management Local PVC management refers to a PVC created between the DSU IQ and the frame relay router on the DTE interface of the DSU IQ. This type of management is ideal when local management is needed but an ethernet connection is not available. To support this type of management it is required that all traffic on the selected PVC be RFC 1490 encapsulated, noncompressed IP traffic.

C menu. YSTEM ONFIGURATION Trap Manager IP Address Enter the IP address of the SNMP manager to which the DSU IQ sends traps. This selection is found underpart M in the PTIONS portion of the C menu.
Dedicated PVC Management Dedicated PVC management refers to the ability to have a PVC originated from the network and terminated in the DSU IQ. This is an ideal configuration for third-party management. It isolates the customer’s data traffic from network management traffic and it also acts as a fire-wall that restricts management data to the DSU.
The DSU IQ can be configured to originate a call based on physical layer conditions (i.e., port failures) PVC signaling loss, and/or PVC outages. Once the criteria is met, the DSU IQ establishes a call to the configured phone number (see Table 4-1 on page 4-13) and the connection is used to carry traffic for the PVC(s) configured for DBU operation.

DTE Port Configuration Chapter 6 Configure the physical layer and frame relay protocol options for the DTE port located on the rear of the DSU IQ by selecting DTE from the C menu. Figure 6-1 illustrates the ONFIGURATION terminal C menu for the DTE port.
This option determines how the DSU IQ responds to congestion during DBU operation. None No flow control is used and the DSU IQ drops frames during severe congestion while in DBU operation. Hardware The DSU IQ varies the DTE TC clock as necessary to relieve congestion during DBU operation.
ORMAL Forced On The DSR lead remains on. Normal The DSR lead is off when the DSU IQ is in a DSU loopback test or is out of service (OOS). CD Option Set the CD lead to F or N...
The frame relay protocol is a synchronous protocol used to concentrate two different devices into a common frame relay link to the network. The DSU IQ accepts frame relay frames from a router or a FRAD (frame relay access device) and routes to/from the network port based on the DLCI address.
Guidelines for Configuring Management DLCI If the attached router or FRAD is used to route SNMP/TELNET frames to the DSU IQ, set the Management DLCI to a unique value (between 16 and 1007) that identifies the virtual circuit between the router/FRAD and the DSU IQ.
ONFIGURATION 7-2. The network port terminates the user end of the frame relay UNI interface. The DSU IQ supports three standard PVC signaling formats: LMI, ANSI T1.617-D, and ITU Q.933-A. The selected signaling format is used to poll the network end of the UNI interface and retrieve virtual circuit information.
When configuring from a terminal, the screen in Figure 7-2 will appear when N is selected. ETWORK In this chapter, the terminal selections are listed first followed by the Front Panel selections (if the names differ). DSU IQ User Manual 61200212L1-1...

ITU-T Q.933-A (Annex A), or A mode forces the DSU IQ to use the same signaling type as the attached frame relay DTE. If is selected and there is no DTE device attached, the DSU IQ uses ANSI T1.617-D signaling type. T391 Set the time (in seconds) between polls to the frame relay network.
N392 and N393 These parameters define the error threshold for the UNI formed by the DSU IQ network port and the frame relay switch. If the error threshold is met, the signaling state status is changed to down, which indicates a service-affecting condition. This condition is cleared once N393 consecutive error-free events are received.
Chapter 7. Network Port Configuration Max PVC Count Sets the maximum number of PVCs that the DSU IQ will monitor for statistical information. This value determines the amount of history intervals available for storage. To get the maximum amount of statistical history storage, set this value equal to the number of PVCs assigned to the frame relay port.
DBU Phone Number The phone number entry stores the phone number that is used when the DSU IQ triggers auto DBU in case of port or PVC failure. The phone number should correspond to a location that is equipped with an “Adtran Safety Net” device that is capable of restoring the PVC which is designated by the DBU DLCI element.
DSU IQs on both ends of the PVC. NABLE When enabled, the DSU IQ tags each frame with a sequence number which is then used by the remote DSU IQ to detect lost packets. Lost packet counts are given in the Statistics menus. Delay Measurement (PVC DELAY) Set to E only if there are DSU IQs on both ends of the PVC.
If set to D , then statistics will not be logged for this PVC at ISABLED any time. If the DSU IQ encounters a PVC that has not been entered into the PVC table, the PVC is set to A by default. PTIONS Next (NEXT key on front panel) Edit the next entry in the PVC Options table.

Address to Ping (PING ADDRESS) Enter the IP address of the unit the DSU IQ is sending an echo request (ping) to. If the IP address is not manually configured into the IP route table, the path will be determined dynamically through RIP and inverse ARP pro- tocols.
Start Ping Results are shown once you start the ping. The S TART command causes the DSU IQ to send ten ping requests to the target station. At the end of the ten-ping test, the following results are shown: Number of Pings Transmitted (PINGS TX) This field shows the number of pings sent (always 10).
PVC Loopback A PVC loopback test is a non-intrusive loopback option for each PVC. During this test, the DSU IQ periodically sends test frames to the remote DSU IQ which are then returned for analysis. The bandwidth required is approximately 1 kbps for each PVC in test.
Undefined: The PVC is undefined for the switch. This field is not available on the front panel. Test Active/No Test Active Displays current testing state of the DSU IQ. This field is not available on the front panel. Frames Rx Number of frames received on the selected PVC during the current loopback test.
