Figure 136. RMCF03: Remote maintenance: Modem on a Node's S2 plug w/ Console Concentrator
Example of Use
This solution is recommended:
• when there is a local ClusterConsole (as depicted in the figure)
• or when the Powerconsole is not wired to the Console Concentrator.
In a multiple-node EPC400 configuration there should be one node with an integrated
modem. For any other EPC configuration type, an external modem is connected (as shown
in the figure above) to the S2 port of a node (Node#1) type EPC1200-N, EPC1200A-N or
EPC800-N.
RSF is installed in a cluster distributed configuration:
• RSF is configured with a 'callscarf' module on a node (Node #1) to interface the remote
maintenance center
• RSF is configured with 'cluster' module on every node.
Cabling Node#1 from a serial port of its 8-port async. board to a port (e.g. J9) on the
Console Concentrator allows to manage the EPC nodes even if the
dedicated-administration network or the customer's LAN network is out of order.
