Preventing electrostatic Discharge Damage  
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies of different electrostatic  
potentials, such as an operator and a piece of electrical equipment. It occurs when electronic components are  
improperly handled, and it can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. Electrostatic discharge is  
more likely to occur with the combination of synthetic fibers and dry atmosphere.  
Use an antistatic strap during removing and replacing NCT480 units.  
Always use an ESD ankle or wrist strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.  
To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively.  
Do not touch any exposed contact pins or connector shells of interface ports that do not have a cable attached. If cables are connected  
at one end only, do not touch the exposed pins at the unconnected end of the cable.  
This equipment is intended for use in residential and commercial environments only.  
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).  
General Maintenance Guidelines  
The following maintenance guidelines apply to NCT480 system units:  
Keep the NCT480 box area clear and dust-free during and after installation.  
If you remove the chassis cover for any reason, store it in a safe place.  
Do not perform any action that creates a hazard to people or makes equipment unsafe.  
Keep walk areas clear to prevent falls or damage to equipment.

Description  
Drop if forwarding Table full  
This specifies if the frame for which learning could not be done because of forwarding  
table limit being reached, is to be dropped. If this is enabled, the frame for which  
learning could not be done because of limit exceeded shall be dropped, else forwarded  
based on bridge forwarding logic. This being enabled shall reduce flooding, as when a  
response to such a frame from which learning could not be done shall come the frame  
shall be flooded, as the entry for that unicast address, shall not be found in forwarding  
table.  
Status of full Bridging Status  
This specifies the current state of full bridging on the bridge. The bridge can be set to  
residential bridging, restricted full bridging or unrestricted full bridging.  
* Residential bridging, all packets from a CPE side port are sent to Net side port (Uplink  
ports) without doing a lookup in the forwarding table.  
* Restricted bridging, there is a lookup and a packet coming from a CPE port destined  
for another CPE port is dropped. Hence, CPE-CPE switching is not permitted.  
* Unrestricted bridging, all traffic is forwarded based on lookup.

Power Management Mode  
The power management allows you to furnish the efficiency of ADSL power output.  
First-generation ADSL transceivers operate in full-power mode (L0) day and night, even when not in use. To  
address these concerns, the ADSL2 standard brings in two power management modes that help to reduce  
overall power consumption while maintaining ADSL’s “always-on” functionality for the user. These modes are  
the L2 and L3 power modes.  
The L2 low-power mode enables statistical powers savings at the ADSL transceiver unit in the central office  
(ATU-C) by rapidly entering and exiting low power mode based on Internet traffic running over the ADSL  
connection. When large files are being downloaded, ADSL2 operates in full power mode (called “L0” power  
mode) in order to maximize the download speed. When Internet traffic decreases, such as when a user is  
reading a long text page, ADSL2 systems can transition into L2 low power mode, in which the data rate  
is significantly decreased and overall power consumption is reduced. While in L2, the ADSL2 system can  
instantly re-enter L0 and increase to the maximum data rate as soon the user initiates a file download. The L2  
entry/exit mechanisms and resulting data rate adaptations are accomplished without any service interruption  
or even a single bit error, and as such, are not noticed by the user.  
The L3 power modem on the other hand, enables overall power savings at both the ATU-C and the  
remote ADSL transceiver unit (ATU-R) by entering into sleep mode when the connection is not being used  
for extended periods of time. L3 is a sleep mode where traffic cannot be communicated over the ADSL  
connection when the user is not online. When the user returns to go on-line the ADSL transceivers require at  
least 2 to 3 seconds to re-initialize and to enter into steady-state communication mode.

PvC Setting  
The PVC Management dialog has the ability to configure the ATM PVC on ADSL port interface.  
ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is more efficient than synchronous technologies like time-division  
multiplexing (TDM). With TDM, each station or users is pre-assigned some time slots, and no other station can  
send in that time slot. With ATM being asynchronous in nature, time slots are available on demand.  
ATM supports integrated voice, data, and video communications. In ATM the information to be transmitted  
in divided into short 53 byte packets or cells, which have a 5 byte header. The reason for such a short cell  
length is that ATM must deliver real time service at low bit rates and thus it minimizes packetization delay.  
ATM networks are connection oriented with virtual channels and virtual paths. The virtual channel carries  
one connection while a virtual path may carry a group of virtual channels. This ensures that cell sequence is  
maintained throughout the network. The virtual channel is identified by the Virtual Channel Identifier, (VCI), and  
the virtual path is identified by the Virtual Path Identifier, (VPI). Both the VCI and VPI may change within the  
network and they are stored in the header of the cell.  
AAL (ATM Adaptation Layer) makes the ATM layer services more adaptable to specific services. The specific  
services may include user services, control services and management services. The AAL is the layer above  
the ATM layer and it is responsible for converting the information from the higher layers into 48 byte lengths  
so that the ATM layer can add the 5 byte header to make the 53 byte cell. The two main functions of this  
AAL are to provide functions needed to support applications and to break up information into units that will  
fit into cells. There are five AAL layers and each layers is loosely associated with the class of traffic to be  
carried. AAL1 is designed to support constant bit rate, connection oriented, and synchronous traffic such as  
uncompressed video transmission. AAL2 is never completed, but it was envisioned to be assigned for variable  
bit rate, connection-oriented, synchronous traffic. AAL3/4 supports variable bit rate, connection oriented,  
and asynchronous traffic or connectionless packet data. AAL5 is the primary AAL for data and supports both  
connection oriented and connectionless data.

Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by the ATU-R. The NCT480 IP-  
DSLAM supports the following methods.  
EOA: Ethernet over ATM. EoA benefits from SONET/SDH protection but has been  
criticized for being expensive and having scalability issues. EoA offers smooth roll out  
of Ethernet-based services in existing Asynchronous Transfer Mode ATM network and  
optimizes the use of spare capacity in the ATM network.  
IPOA: Some CPE devices have IPoA interfaces towards the WAN side. These interfaces  
need to be supported and retained by the service providers. Also DSLAMs are moving  
from ATM to Packet mode and hence support for these interfaces on the CPE side  
becomes essential. In order to provide this flexibility in the route mode firmware release

IP ( for IPOA)  
The creation of the above downstream route actually assigns an IP address to the  
IPoE interface. Also it specifies that for IP routing, IP address <E.F.G.H>. Using all this  
information, an ARP request for the IP address specified in the gateway IP address of  
the default route. BRAS shall respond the ARP request from the NET side. Also due to  
source MAC address based learning, an entry in the MAC address-forwarding table will  
get created, which is required for the upstream forwarding. Hence, the upstream traffic  
can flow.  
MAC (for IPOA)  
MAC address profile is a generic way for assigning MAC addresses to interfaces. A  
MAC address can be associated with a profile and that profile can be attached to the  
interface.  
Currently a maximum of 48 profiles are supported in the system.

vLAN Mode Setting  
With the Ethernet becoming cheaper and more popular, the Ethernet networks are expanding to cover metros.  
This is leading to deployment of MEN (Metropolitan Ethernet network). The existing support for VLAN as  
standardized in IEEE 802.1Q is not able to scale to MEN deployment, because of limited 4095 VLANs and  
hence the requirement for VLAN Stacking.  
VLAN Stacking, also known as Q in Q, is the mechanism where one VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) may be  
encapsulated within another VLAN. This allows a carrier to partition the network among several national ISPs,  
while allowing each ISP to still utilize VLANs to their full extent. It is very important to logically separate all  
traffic between ISPs – for security, for offering different levels of service to prospective ISP customers and the  
ability to utilize full VLAN space.  
In a typical network scenario Columbia is on edge of provider network (Ethernet Aggregation Network), the  
location of DSLAM as shown in Figure 6-4 depicting Network Scenario.

With VLAN stacking, if one ISP provisioned an end user into “VLAN 1”, and another ISP provisioned one of  
their end users into “VLAN 1”, the two end users would not receive each other’s traffic.

IGMP Snooping  
The IGMP Snooping allows you to view and change the IGMP Snooping administrate status.  
IP traffic can be transmitted in one of either three ways: unicast (one sender to one receiver), broadcast (one  
sender to all members on the network) or multicast (one sender to a group of hosts). IGMP is a session-layer  
(layer-3) protocol used to establish membership in a multicast group.  
Multicast addresses are Class D IP address, from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. These addresses are also  
referred to as Group Destination Address (GDA). Each GDA address is associated with one MAC address. The  
GDA MAC address is constructed by joining 01:00:5E and the last 23 bits of the GDA multicast IP address in  
Hex. For example, GDA 224.1.1.1 corresponds to MAC address 01:00:5E:01:01:01  
A layer-2 switch supported IGMP snooping can passively snoop on IGMP Query, Report and Leave packets  
transferred between Routers/Switches and hosts to learn the IP Multicast group membership. It snoops IGMP  
packets passing through it, picks out the group registration information, and configures multicasting accordingly.

IGMP Snooping Leave message processing mode for the port.  
IGMP Snooping Status  
Leave Mode  
If the mode is set to ‘Normal’, the Leave message is forwarded to the Querier and then  
based on the Query received from Querier the Leave processing is triggered.  
If the mode is set to ‘Fast’, the port is immediately deleted from that multicast group on  
Leave message reception and then the Leave message is forwarded. The mode should  
be set to ‘Fast’ for a port only if there is one host behind the port. This is because if  
there are multiple hosts behind the port then it will lead to traffic disruption for other  
hosts who might still be listening to that multicast group.  
If mode is set to ‘FastNormal’, the Leave message is forwarded and the Leave  
processing is triggered immediately without waiting for any trigger from the Querier.  
‘FastNormal’ mode thus saves the delay (equal to the time taken for Leave message to  
reach router and Querier processing time for it and the time taken for Query to reach  
IGMP Snoop module) in Leave processing.

DhCP & PPPoe Relay  
The DHCP Relay configuration provides DHCP Relay Option 82 function.  
DHCP allows individual computers on an IP network to extract their configurations from DHCP server. The  
overall purpose of this is to reduce the work necessary to administer a large IP network. The most significant  
piece of information distributed in this manner is the IP address. Information can be added into client TCP/IP  
configuration requests that IP-DSLAM relays to a DHCP server. This helps provide authentication about the  
source of the request. Please refer to RFC 3046 for further details.  
The PPPoE Relay feature enables an L2TP access concentrator (LAC) to relay active discovery and service  
selection functionality for PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE), over a Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) control  
channel, to an L2TP network server (LNS) or tunnel switch (multihop node). The relay functionality of this  
feature allows the LNS or tunnel switch to advertise the services it offers to the client, thereby providing end-  
to-end control of services between the LNS and a PPPoE client.

Spanning Tree Protocol  
The spanning tree protocol allows you to configure the STP parameters on network Ethernet interface.  
Spanning-Tree Protocol is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing  
undesirable loops in the network. For an Ethernet network to function properly, only one active path can exist  
between two stations. Multiple active paths between stations cause loops in the network. If a loop exists in  
the network topology, the potential exists for duplication of messages. When loops occur, some switches see  
stations appear on both sides of the switch. This condition confuses the forwarding algorithm and allows  
duplicate frames to be forwarded.  
To provide path redundancy to prevent undesirable loops, Spanning-Tree Protocol defines a tree that spans  
all switches in an extended network. Spanning-Tree Protocol forces certain redundant data paths into a  
standby (blocked) state. If one network segment in the Spanning-Tree Protocol becomes unreachable, or if  
Spanning-Tree Protocol costs change, the spanning-tree algorithm reconfigures the spanning-tree topology  
and reestablishes the link by activating the standby path.  
STP is a technology that allows bridges to communicate with each other to discover physical loops in  
the network. The protocol then specifies an algorithm that bridges can use to create a loop-free logical  
topology. In other words, STP creates a tree structure of loop-free leaves and branches that spans the  
entire Layer 2 network.

ATM OAM Test  
The ATM OAM test generates the ATM F5 loop-back to diagnose the ADSL port interface.  
Operation Administration and Maintenance (OA&M) - OA&M is defined for supervision, testing, and  
performance monitoring. It uses loop-back for maintenance and ITU TS standard CMIP, with organization into  
5 hierarchical levels: Virtual Channel (F5 - Between VC endpoints), Virtual Path (F4- between VP endpoints),  
and Transmission Path (F3- Between elements that perform assembling, disassembling of payload, header,  
or control), Digital Section (F2 Between section end-points, performs frame synchronization) and Regenerator  
Section (F1- Between regeneration sections).  
Figure ꢁ-ꢀ ATM OAM Test Dialog  
Table 7-2 describes the OAM test field items.  
Item  
Description  
Port(vpi/vci)  
Loop-back source id assigned to the ATM port. The ATM port will respond to all loop-  
back cells, which carry this OAM id. This parameter specifies the interface, virtual path,  
and virtual circuit for which information is desired.  
Result  
Use this command to display result of previous OAM loopback command. This specifies  
the result of the loop back test. It may be Result Unavailable, Seg Succeeded, Seg  
Failed, E2e Succeeded, E2e Failed, Test Aborted, or Test In Progress.

ADSL2 DeLT Test  
DELT is primarily used for reactive tests on a loop after a CPE has been deployed, either to help troubleshoot a  
line or to capture a baseline of loop characteristics at the time of installation. DELT can determine the ADSL2+  
data rate (up/down), loop attenuation (up/down), SNR (up/down), and noise (up/down).
