Configuration; Managed Modules - IMC Networks iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-LineTerm Operation Manual

Configuration

Proper configuration of the iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-LineTerm is required for maximum
performance and reliability. The following sections describe the prerequisites and the
configurations available for both managed and unmanaged modules.
Requirements
The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-LineTerm conforms to many DS3/E3/STS-based environments.
Ensure all of the relevant information about the expected installation environment is
available before configuring the module. This information includes
•
Distance of the coax run (450 feet Max)
•
Distance of the fiber run (Must match fiber transceiver selected)
•
Troubleshooting requirements

Managed Modules

The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-LineTerm modules can be remotely managed when installed
in an iMediaChassis with an SNMP management module.
Before installing the modules, they must be configured for Host/Remote via the DIP
Switches. The Master/Slave condition requires this configuration:
S1-10: ON Remote Unit Enabled (only at the REMOTE end) (Remote)
S1-10: OFF Remote Unit Disabled (only at the LOCAL end) (Host)
After the module is installed, modify the SNMP enabled features by using the iView
SNMP management software. In a managed chassis, the software settings take
priority over DIP Switch settings. Ensure the software settings match the desired
configuration requirements for the installation.
