Management Control Using the ESF FDL

2-4
When managing the T1 access unit remotely, you can establish a management
link across the network in one of three ways. You can:
H
Use the Facility Data Link (FDL) for a point-to-point ESF T1 link.
H
Use an Embedded Data Link (EDL) associated with a Sync Data port.
H
Use a Direct Data Link (DDL).
You can configure the T1 access unit to use FDL as a management link if
available for a point-to-point, ESF T1 link, where FDL is end-to-end.

FDL
As shown in the example, in-band management is accomplished through the FDL
between the two T1 access units. Management data for T1 Access Unit B goes to
T1 Access Unit A, which then routes it into the FDL between the units. This
example assumes that the NMS (or Host) that is attempting to access T1 Access
Unit B is attached (using SLIP or PPP) via the COM port on T1 Access Unit A.
Set the Management Link configuration option to FDL.
