Introduction

Overview
The ACCULINKR 3166 DSU/CSU acts as an interface between the T1 digital
network and the customer premises equipment, converting signals received from
the DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) to bipolar signals that can be transmitted
over T1 lines. Typical applications include shared access to network-based
services, Local Area Network (LAN)/Wide Area Network (WAN) interconnection,
and fractional T1 network applications.
The Model 3166 is designed to fit into the COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier. For
more information about the carrier, refer to the COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier
Installation Manual.
Features
The DSU/CSU optimizes network performance with a wide range of features such
as the following:
H
Software configuration menu displayed via an optional liquid crystal display
(LCD) to permit quick and easy operation, and elimination of complicated
hardware strapping.

Introduction
Alarm Message Capability
The DSU/CSU can be attached, either locally or remotely, to an ASCII terminal or
printer to display or print alarm messages. Alarms can also be displayed on a PC
that is using a terminal emulation package.
Front Panel Emulation
The DSU/CSU offers functionality through Front Panel Emulation software that is
similar to that provided by the optional Shared Diagnostic Control Panel (SDCP).
The functionality of the SDCP is available by clicking on the function keys with the
mouse rather than by pressing keys on the SDCP.
Asynchronous Terminal Interface (ATI) Support
The DSU/CSU can be configured and managed from an asynchronous terminal.
The asynchronous terminal’s full screen display uses a menu hierarchy similar to
the DSU/CSU’s front panel. You can perform device management and
configuration operations as if you are using the SDCP, but you do not have the
limitation of the 2-line, 16-character LCD.
Telnet Access
Remote asynchronous terminal operations can be performed using Telnet
access. Telnet is a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
service that supports a virtual terminal interface.
SNMP Management Support
SNMP is a network management protocol that is used to monitor network
performance and status, and to report alarms (i.e., traps). To function, SNMP
requires a manager consisting of a software program housed within a workstation
or PC; an agent consisting of a software program housed within a device (e.g.,
the DSU/CSU); and a Management Information Base (MIB) consisting of a
database of managed objects. The DSU/CSU can be managed by any
industry-standard SNMP manager.
Two link layer protocols, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Serial Line Internet
Protocol (SLIP), are supported for connection to an external SNMP manager or
network device (e.g., a router).
The SNMP manager, LAN adapter, or network device can be directly connected
to the communications (COM) port.
The SNMP management system can communicate to the DSU/CSU remotely
through the Facility Data Link (FDL) or the synchronous data port’s Embedded
Data Link (EDL).

" Procedure
To install the DSU and rear connector module:
1. At the rear of the carrier, set the tab on the rear connector module into one of
the slotted grooves on the carrier’s backplane. Loosely fasten the screws.
Make sure the rear connector module uses the same slot position intended
for the DSU.
NOTE:
If an auxiliary backplane for Models 3151 or 3161 DSUs is installed in the
same carrier, verify that it is mounted over slots 9–16. Slot 9 is rendered
inaccessible if the auxiliary backplane is mounted over slots 1–8.

Changing Configuration Options
The DSU/CSU is an intelligent device that displays only valid options for the
current configuration. Therefore, you are only presented with menu choices that
are consistent with the current configuration and operational state of the
DSU/CSU; invalid combinations of configuration options do not appear. Be aware
that although all options are shown in this guide, what you see on your DSU/CSU
varies with your configuration.
The DSU/CSU offers configuration options located in the following memory areas:
H
Active (Activ) – This is the configuration option set currently active for the
DSU/CSU. Before a configuration option set becomes active for the
DSU/CSU, you must save the set to the Active area. When the DSU/CSU is
shipped from the factory, the Active configuration option set is identical to the
Factory set. This area can be written to and controls the current operation of
the device.
H

Customer 1 (Cust1) – This is the first of two sets of customer-defined
configuration options. This area can be written to.
Customer 2 (Cust2) – This is the second of two sets of customer-defined
configuration options. This area can be written to.
Factory 1 (Fact1) – This is a set of configuration options preset at the
factory. This set is determined by what is considered to be the most common
configuration used in the DSU/CSU market. Factory 1 options are read-only.

Allocating Data Ports
By using the configuration options, assign a specific port to DS0 channels on the
network interface. The following methods are available to assign DS0 channels to
the port:
H
Block – Allows a block of contiguous channels to be assigned by specifying
a data port rate and an initial DS0 channel (the first DS0 channel in a block of
DS0 channels). The number of channels assigned is determined by the port
rate. Only those initial DS0 channel numbers that provide enough bandwidth
(based on the port’s data rate) are displayed on the screen. These channels
are automatically assigned to the destination T1 interface when the initial
DS0 channel is selected.
H
H
ACAMI (Alternate Channel Alternate Mark Inversion) – Allows a block of
contiguous channels to be assigned by specifying a data port rate and an
initial DS0 channel (the first DS0 channel in a block of DS0 channels).
However, with ACAMI, the number of channels assigned is twice the number
needed for the port rate. This is because with ACAMI, every alternate DS0
channel (starting with the n+1 DS0 channel), does not carry data from the
port, but instead always transmits and receives all ones.
Chan (Channel) – Individually selects the DS0 channels to allocate to the
data port. The data port rate is automatically determined based on the
number of channels selected.
Once a port is selected, you have access to the configuration options to complete
the port allocation procedure. These configuration options enable you to:

that is used to synchronize all of the T1 and data port interfaces on the
DSU/CSU. The clock for each interface is at the appropriate rate for that
interface (e.g., 1.544 Mbps for the T1 interface, the configured port rate for the
data ports), and it is independent of the master clock rate. This means that the
master clock rate and the DSU/CSU interface rates may be different.
The clock source configuration options enable you to select either the network
interface, a synchronous data port, or the internal clock.

Performance data is updated in 15-minute intervals. After 15 minutes, the current
interval is rolled over into a set of accumulator registers that represent the
previous 96 15-minute intervals for the register. An interval total of how many of
the 96 registers contain valid data is also kept, as well as a 24-hour total for each
accumulator register.
Port performance is continuously monitored and maintained in memory registers
when the port is configured to use EDL. The DSU/CSU maintains two sets of port
registers for each synchronous data port: far-end port registers and near-end port
registers. These registers are status registers that collect performance data for
the previous 8-hour period. Port data is updated in 15-minute intervals. After
15 minutes, the current interval is rolled over into a set of accumulator registers
that represent the previous 32 15-minute intervals for the register. An interval
total of how many of the 32 registers contain valid data is also kept, as well as a
8-hour total for each accumulator register.

SNMP Traps
SNMP traps are unsolicited messages that are sent from the DSU/CSU to an
SNMP manager when the DSU/CSU detects certain pre-specified conditions.
These traps enable the SNMP manager to monitor the state of the network.
The SNMP Trap configuration option must be enabled for trap messages to be
sent over the communications link. You must specify the number of SNMP
managers that are to receive traps from this DSU/CSU, an IP address for each
SNMP manager specified, and the type of traps to be sent from this DSU/CSU.
Trap types consist of the following:
H
General traps – Include warmStart and authenticationFailure. The DSU/CSU
sends a warmStart trap after it has been reset to indicate that it has just
reinitialized itself. The DSU/CSU sends an authenticationFailure trap when it
has received an SNMP protocol message that has not been properly
authenticated. These traps are set by the Gen Trap configuration option.
H
H
enterprise-specific event. See Table 4-4 for enterprise-specific traps. These
traps are set by the Entp Trap configuration option.
Link Traps – Identify the condition of the communications interface, either
linkDown (one of the communications interfaces has failed) or linkUp (one of
the communications interfaces has just come up). These traps are set by the
Link Trap configuration option. The communications interfaces for which
these traps can be generated are specified by the Trap I/F configuration

DialOut: Disab
Next Enab Disab Prev
Alarm and Trap Dial Out. Controls whether generated alarm or trap messages initiate a
call if the external communication port device connection has not already been
established. When enabled, a call is placed to the phone number contained in the alarm
directory (directory A). If the call cannot be completed and the retry option is enabled,
the alarm or trap message is held until the call is completed or the maximum (five) retry
count has been exceeded. If more than one alarm message is received while waiting for
a call retry, only the highest priority alarm message received is held; all previous
messages are discarded. When the COM port is configured as the SNMP management
link, up to 10 SNMP trap messages can be queued at the interface.
Enab – Enables automatic call initiation (dial out) if an alarm or trap message needs to
be sent.
Disab – Disables automatic call initiation. Trap messages sent to the external
communication port device are queued (held) if a carrier external communication port
device connection has not been previously established. Alarm messages are not
queued.
Call Retry: Disab
Next Enab Disab Prev
Call Retry on Alarm or Trap. Determines whether a call that cannot complete (busy, no
answer, etc.) is retried. This affects calls that are initiated in attempting to send an alarm
or trap message to the carrier external communication port device. If call retry is
specified, the DSU/CSU attempts to complete the call after a configurable delay.
Enab – Enables call retry. If enabled the call is retried up to a maximum of five times per
alarm or trap message. A delay as specified by the dial-out delay time is imposed
between call attempts. If an alternate dial-out directory is specified, both the alarm
directory as well as the alternate directory are retried up to five times.
Disab – Disables call retry. If a call setup cannot be completed it is not retried.

Alternate Dial-Out Directory for Alarm or Trap. Specifies whether a call that cannot be
completed (busy, no answer, etc.) is retried using an alternate phone number. This
affects calls that are initiated in an attempt to send an alarm or trap message to the
carrier external communication port device. The alternate phone number to try is
contained in one of the five call directories. If call retry is enabled, the initial call is
retried at the original number five times before a call attempt to the alternate number is
tried. If the call does not complete at the alternate number, it is also retried up to the
five-retry maximum. The alternate dial-out option applies to each alarm/trap event. Once
a call for an alarm/trap message either completes or fails all retry attempts, the next
alarm/trap attempts to establish a call to the phone number contained in the alarm
directory.
None – Specifies that alternate alarm dial-out is not performed if a call cannot be
completed to the telephone number contained in the alarm directory.
1–5 – Specifies the call directory that contains the phone number to call if a call cannot
be completed to the telephone number contained in the alarm directory.

shared alarm relay on the 3000 Series Carrier. The alarm deactivates if the condition(s)
causing it is corrected. An Alarm Cut-Off issued from the SDCP (or PC Emulation
program) for a particular carrier-mounted DSU/CSU also deactivates the alarm. The
carrier-mounted DSU/CSU does not reactivate the alarm relay until all alarm conditions
for the unit are cleared.
The following alarm conditions activate the alarm relay if this configuration option is
enabled:
H Excessive Error Rate (EER) detected at the network interface.

COM Port Interface
The COM port connects to a PC for front panel emulation, to an ASCII terminal or
printer for alarms, to an asynchronous terminal, to a network device (e.g., a
router) for SNMP or Telnet applications, or to a LAN Adapter for SNMP or Telnet
applications. (The SNMP LAN Adapter includes the cable that is needed to attach
it to the DSU/CSU.) The COM port connector is an 8-position unkeyed modular
interface.

Overview
This appendix describes the Management Information Base (MIB) objects that
are supported by the DSU/CSU and provides a correlation between front panel
commands and MIB objects (Table E-1).
The DSU/CSU supports the following MIBs:
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) internets and provides general
information about the DSU/CSU.
H
supports synchronous data port and COM port on the DSU/CSU.
additional objects for control of generic interfaces in MIB II. It supports control
of tests on synchronous data interface that are not supported by other MIBs.

SNMP MIB Objects
MIB II (RFC 1213)
The objects defined by MIB II are organized into 10 different groups. The
DSU/CSU implements only those groups where the semantics of the group are
applicable to the implementation of a DSU/CSU. The MIB II object groups
supported or not supported by the 3100 Series devices are as follows:
System
Group
Supported.
Interface
Group
Supported for the network interface, the synchronous data
port, and the COM port. Interface statistics (counters) apply to
the port defined as the SNMP management link.
Address
Translation
Group
Not supported since this group is not supported in MIB II.
IP Group
Supported.
Supported.

Supported.
ICMP Group
TCP Group
UDP Group
EGP Group
Not supported since the EGP protocol is not supported by the
DSU/CSU.
Transmission Supported on the synchronous data port using the RS-232-like
Group MIB. Supported on the COM port using the RS-232-like MIB.
SNMP Group Supported.
System Group, MIB II
The System Group objects are fully supported by the DSU/CSU. The following
sections provide clarification for objects contained in the System Group where it
is not otherwise clear how the object definition in MIB II is related to the
DSU/CSU. Objects not mentioned are supported as stated in the MIB.
System Group – “sysDescr” Object (system 1)
This object provides the full name and version identification for the system
hardware and software. This object displays the following string:
[Company Name] T1 DSU/CSU; model xxxx-xx-xxx; S/W Release: yy.yy.yy; H/W
CCA1: zzzz-zzz; H/W CCA2: zzzz-zzz; Serial number: ssssssss.
Where:
xxxx-xx-xxx represents the full model number of the unit.
yy.yy.yy represents the software revision number of the unit.
zzzz-zzz represents the hardware revision number of the unit.
ssssssss represents the serial number of the unit.

SNMP MIB Objects
System Group – “sysObjectID” Object (system 2)
This object provides the authoritative identification of the network management
subsystem contained in the unit.
This object displays the following object identifier:
3166
[Company OID].1.14.2.2.8
System group –”sysContact” Object (system 4)
This object provides a textual identification of the contact person for this
managed node.
System Group – “sysName” Object (system 5)
This object provides an administratively-assigned name for this managed node.
System Group – “sysLocation” Object (system 6)
This object provides the physical location of this node.
System Group – “sysServices” Object (system 7)
This object provides a value which indicates the set of services that are
potentially offered by the DSU/CSU. Only the following values are supported.
H
H
physical(1) – Layer 1 functionality for all interfaces.
datalink/subnetwork(2) – Layer 2 functionality (SLIP, PPP) for the COM, AUX,
and MODEM ports.
H
H
internet(4) – Layer 3 functionality (IP) for all management links.
end-to-end(8) – Layer 4 functionality (UDP) for all management links.
Therefore, set this object to 15 (the sum of 1 + 2 + 4 + 8).
Interface Group, MIB II
The Interfaces Group consists of an object indicating the number of interfaces
supported by the unit and an interface table containing an entry for each
interface. The DSU/CSU provides an entry in the interface table for the network
interface, the synchronous data port, and the COM port. The following sections
provide clarification for objects contained in the Interface Group where it is not
clear how the object definition in MIB II is related to the DSU/CSU.
Interface Group – “ifNumber” Object (interfaces 1)
This variable contains the maximum number of MIB II supported interfaces
possible across the 31xx Series product line (9). This is different from the MIB
description, which is defined as the number of interfaces on the particular device.
This change allows the use of the same ifIndexes across all 31xx Series models.

SNMP MIB Objects
Interface Group – “ifIndex” Object (ifEntry 1)
This object provides the index into the ifTable and typically into tables in other
MIBs also. The values of the ifIndex object do not vary between models even
though not all indexes are supported for a particular model. When an
unsupported index is accessed, “noSuchName” is returned.
The following are the values of the ifIndexes for the Model 3166 DSU/CSU:
H
H
H
1 – Net T1
3 – COM port
6 – DCE port 1
Interface Group – “ifDescr” Object (ifEntry 2)
This object provides information about the interface. Each interface displays a
text string as shown below:
Network T1:
COM:
“Network T1.[Company Name] T1 DSU/CSU, Hardware
Version:[CCA number for the CSU board]”.
“COM port.[Company Name] T1 DSU/CSU, Hardware
Version:[CCA number for the CSU board for the standalone,
or the CCA number for the DSU board for the carrier]”.
Data Port:
“Data Port 1.[Company Name] T1 DSU/CSU, Hardware
Version:[CCA number for the DSU board]”
(where n is 1 to 4).
Interface Group – “ifType” Object (ifEntry 3)
This object identifies the type of the interface based on the physical/link
protocol(s) immediately below the network layer. Only the following values are
supported by the DSU/CSU:
H
H
ds1 – Used for the network interface.
propPointToPointSerial(22) – Used for the synchronous data port. Used for
the COM port when the port is not configured as the SNMP management
interface.
H
H
ppp(23) – Used for the COM port when the port is configured for PPP.
slip(28) – Used for the COM port when the port is configured for SLIP.
Interface Group – “ifMtu” Object (ifEntry 4)
This object identifies the largest datagram that can be sent or received on the
interface. It is applicable only to the interface configured as the SNMP
management link. This object is zero for all other interfaces.

SNMP MIB Objects
Interface Group – “ifSpeed” Object (ifEntry 5)
This object provides the interface’s current bandwidth in bits per second. The
value of this object for each interface is specified as follows:
T1 Interfaces: 1,544,000 bps.
COM:
The currently configured data rate for the port.
Data Port:
The currently configured data rate for the port when the port is
allocated to one of the T1 interfaces. If the port is not allocated
the data rate is defined as zero.
Interface Group – “ifAdminStatus” Object (ifEntry 7)
This object specifies the desired state (configuration) of the interface. This object
is supported only for the COM port. It provides the ability to switch between using
the port for SNMP or ASCII operations (dial-out, front panel emulation). The value
of this object will not affect the state of any of the interfaces on the DSU/CSU
other than the COM port. Only the following values are supported by the
DSU/CSU:
H
H
up(1) – The SNMP management link is active on the COM port.
testing(3) – The SNMP management link is inactive on the COM port. These
ports can be used for proprietary ASCII functions.
Interface Group – “ifOperStatus” Object (ifEntry 8)
This object specifies the current operational state of the interface. The value of
this object for each interface is defined as follows:
Network T1:
The interface is up(1) when no alarm conditions exist.
The interface is down(2) when an alarm condition is active.
The interface is testing(3) when a test is active on the interface.
COM Port:
When configured as an SNMP management link, up and down
are based on the current state of the link layer protocol.
Otherwise, the interface is always up(1).
The interface is never in the testing(3) state.
Data Port:
The interface is up(1) when the port is assigned to a T1
interface, and both CTS and DSR are ON.
The interface is down(2) when the port is unassigned, or either
CTS or DSR is OFF.
The interface is testing(3) when a test is active on the interface.
Interface Group – “ifLastChange” Object (ifEntry 9)
This object contains the value of “sysUpTime” at the time the interface entered its
current operational state.

SNMP MIB Objects
Interface Group – Input Counters (objects ifEntry 10 to ifEntry 15)
These objects collect statistics on the data received by the COM port when it is
configured as an SNMP management link. For an interface that is not configured
as an SNMP management link, these statistics are not provided and an error
status is returned if access is attempted. The objects used to collect input
statistics are listed below:

ifInUnknownProtos (ifEntry 15)
Interface Group – Output Counters (objects ifEntry 16 to ifEntry 21)
These objects collect statistics on the data received by the COM port when it is
configured as an SNMP management link. For an interface that is not configured
as an SNMP management link, these statistics are not provided and an error
status is returned if access is attempted. The objects used to collect output
statistics are listed below:

ifOutQLen (ifEntry 21)
IP Group, MIB II
The IP Group objects are supported by the DSU/CSU for all data paths which
currently are configured to carry IP data to or from the DSU/CSU, including the
COM, carrier SNMP bus, and FDL. All of the objects in the IP Group other than
the IP Address Translation table are fully supported. The IP Address Translation
table (ipNetToMediaTable) does not apply to the DSU/CSU and will be empty
(i.e., have zero entries). The following sections provide clarification for objects
contained in the IP Group when it is not clear how the object definition in MIB II is
related to the DSU/CSU.

SNMP MIB Objects
IP Group – “ipForwarding” Object (ip 1)
This object specifies whether the unit is acting as an IP gateway in respect to the
forwarding of a datagram received by, but not addressed to, this unit. Only the
following value is supported by the DSU/CSU.
H
forwarding(1) – The unit is acting as a gateway.
IP Group – “ipAddrTable” Object (ip 20)
The address table is supported by the DSU/CSU.
IP Group – “ipAdEntAddr” Object (ipAddrEntry 1)
The ipAdEntAddr object is an IP address supported by the device and serves as
the index to the address table. Since indexes for tables must be unique, only one
ifIndex may be displayed for each IP address supported by the device. If you
have configured the same IP address for multiple interfaces or for default IP
addresses, you will not see all interfaces that support a particular IP address
upon display of the ipAddrTable.
IP Group – “ipAdEntIfIndex” Object (ipAddrEntry 2)
For some address table entries, the ipAdEntIfIndex object may have a value
greater than ifNumber. In these cases, the ipAdEntIfIndex refers to a proprietary
interface which is not currently implemented by the interface group of MIB II.
IP Group – “ipRouteTable” Object (ip 21)
The routing table used by the DSU/CSU is supported as a read/write table.
Entries in this table may be added, deleted, or changed. You should exercise
great caution when adding or modifying routes in the ipRoutingTable. In general,
it should not be necessary to add or modify routes in the DSU/CSU. In those
cases where it is deemed necessary, the routes should only be added to the
connected device (i.e., the device closest to the destination). Internal routing
mechanisms will propagate the route to the other devices.
An existing route may be effectively deleted by setting the ipRouteType object to
“invalid” for the entry to be deleted. An existing route may be modified by
changing fields in the desired entry (indexed by ipRouteDest) of the routing table.
A new route may be added by specifying values for a table entry for which the
index (“ipRouteDest”) does not already exist.
To add a route using an SNMP set, you must specify a group of minimal objects.
These variable bindings must be contained in a single Protocol Data Unit (PDU).
The objects are described in more detail in the following sections. The minimal
set consists of:
H
H
ipRouteDest
ipRouteIfIndex

SNMP MIB Objects
The following objects are defaulted if not specified in the set PDU used to add a
route.
H
H
ipRouteMetric1 – Defaulted to 1 hop.
ipRouteMetric2 – Defaulted to current slot for carrier devices and –1 for
standalone devices.
H
H
ipRouteType – Defaulted to indirect.
ipRouteMask – Defaulted as specified in the MIB description.
The following objects are unused in the DSU/CSU and setting them will have no
effect on the operation of the IP implementation.
H
H
ipRouteMetric3, ipRouteMetric4, ipRouteMetric5 – Defaulted to –1 as
specified in the MIB.
ipRouteNextHop – Defaulted to 0.0.0.0.
The following read-only objects must not be specified in the set PDU used to add
a route.
H
H
H
ipRouteProto – Set to netmgmt(3) by software.
ipRouteAge – Defaulted to 999.
ipRouteInfo – Set to OBJECT IDENTIFIER {0, 0} since it is unused.
IP Group – “ipRouteDest” Object (ipRouteEntry 1)
The ipRouteDest object serves as the index to the routing table. Since indexes for
tables must be unique, only one route per destination may appear in the table. To
ensure that no duplicate destinations appear in the routing table, the ipRouteDest
object of the ipRouteTable will be treated as described in RFC 1354 (IP
Forwarding Table MIB):
“The destination IP address of this route. An entry with a value of 0.0.0.0 is
considered a default route. This object may not take a Multicast (Class D)
address value. Any assignment (implicit or otherwise) of an instance of this object
to a value x must be rejected if the bitwise logical–AND of x with the value of the
corresponding instance of the ipForwardMask object is not equal to x.”
IP Group – “ipRouteIfIndex” Object (ipRouteEntry 1)
When the routing table is displayed, the ipRouteIfIndex object for some entries
may have a value greater than ifNumber. In these cases, the ipRouteIfIndex
refers to a proprietary interface which is not currently implemented by the
interface group of MIB II. Route entries with an unrecognized ipRouteIfIndex
value should not be deleted.
When setting this object via SNMP, the ipRouteIfIndex value can only assume an
appropriate value of ifIndex defined for the particular device type.

SNMP MIB Objects
IP Group – “ipRouteMetric2” Object (ipRouteEntry 4)
The following values are displayed for the ipRouteMetric2 object. For a carrier
device designated as the IP Bus Master, ipRouteMetric2 is used to designate the
slot number of the next hop associated with this route if the destination is not
connected to the device. For carrier devices not designated as the IP Bus Master
or IP Bus Master devices in which the destination is connected to the device,
ipRouteMetric2 contains the slot number (0–15) of the carrier device. For
standalone devices, ipRouteMetric2 is not used and contains –1.
When adding a route to the routing table using SNMP, do not specify a value for
ipRouteMetric2.
IP Group – “ipRouteProto” Object (ipRouteEntry 9)
This object is a read-only object and may have the following values in the
DSU/CSU.
H
H
other(1) – Temporary route added by IP.
local(2) – Route added or modified as a result of user configuration via the
front panel.
H
H
netmgmt(3) – Route added or modified by means of an SNMP set.
icmp(4) – Route added or modified by Internet Control Management Protocol
(ICMP).
H
rip(8) – Route added or modified by Routing Information Protocol (RIP) (or
similar proprietary protocol).
IP Group – “ipRouteAge” Object (ipRouteEntry 10)
This object is implemented as a read-only object in the DSU/CSU. In the
DSU/CSU, it reflects the value of the route’s time-to-live (in seconds). When
displays, a value of 999 represents a route that is retained permanently. For
temporary routes, the ipRouteAge object decrements over time. All routes added
via an SNMP set of the ipRouteTable are considered permanent routes. These
routes do not age, but will remain unless deleted via SNMP.
ICMP Group, MIB II
The ICMP Group objects are fully supported by the DSU/CSU.
TCP Group, MIB II
The TCP Group objects are fully supported by the DSU/CSU, with the exception
of the tcpConnState object, which will be read-only.
UDP Group, MIB II
The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Group objects are fully supported by the
DSU/CSU.

SNMP MIB Objects
Transmission Group, MIB II
Objects in the transmission group are supported on the network interface, the
COM port, and the synchronous data port. The objects in the transmission group
are not defined within MIB II, but rather through other Internet standard MIB
definitions. The following two transmission group objects are supported by the
DSU/CSU.
H
H
ds1 (transmission 18) – The transmission object supported on the T1
interfaces.
rs232 (transmission 33) – The transmission object supported on the
synchronous data port and the COM port port.
The “ds1” transmission object is defined by the DS1/E1 MIB. The rs232
transmission object is defined by the RS-232-like MIB.
SNMP Group, MIB II
The SNMP Group objects that apply to a management agent are fully supported
by the DSU/CSU. The following objects apply only to an NMS and return a zero
value if accessed.

IP Networking Address Scenario
F
Overview
This appendix describes a means of configuring 31xx Series devices in an
Internet Protocol (IP) network to provide SNMP or Telnet connectivity. Since there
are many possible network addressing schemes, this appendix describes an
addressing scheme for typical customer network management system (NMS)
scenarios. This appendix is not intended to be an IP addressing or routing
tutorial, and a basic understanding of IP and 31xx Series devices is assumed.
The following notes apply to these scenarios:
H
31xx devices besides the Model 3166 include:
— Model 3160 (2-port standalone)
— Model 3161 (carrier-mounted card used with auxiliary backplane)
— Model 3162 (2-port standalone)
— Model 3164 (4-port standalone)
— Model 3165 (1-port standalone)
H
H
Connections to remote devices may be via EDL (for the Model 3166 and
2-port and 4-port DSU/CSUs) or FDL; however, the FDL is only available on
full T1 links (not fractional T1s). Check with the service provider to be sure
that the FDL is end-to-end (i.e., not terminated at an intermediate point within
the network).
Interconnected 31xx Series devices automatically pass routing information
between them; however, a static route to the subnet(s) must be set in the
routing table of the NMS host. This route uses the 31xx Series device
connected to the LAN (via the LAN Adapter), or the NMS (via a direct PPP or
SLIP connection) as a gateway to the subnet(s). In all instances, the
addressing scheme presented works for both the LAN and the direct
connections.
H
Although routing table entries are maintained automatically by 31xx Series
devices, without the need for user configuration, only a maximum of 100
routes is supported for a given device.

IP Networking Address Scenario
H
H
The choice of a host address within a given subnet is completely arbitrary.
Choose any legal host address for a given subnet, without regard to the local
or remote devices.
Although the default route (to the NMS) is configurable for all devices, only
devices that have a direct external connection to an NMS (via the COM or
AUX ports) need a default route set. In the following examples, the default
port (COM or AUX) is set in the device connected to the LAN Adapter.
Scenario 1
chained together, with remotes connected via the FDL. In this scenario, all 31xx
Series devices are on the same subnet (135.18.1.0). The subnet mask for each
device is FF.FF.FF.00. A static route is set in the NMS host to subnet 135.18.1.0.

The second scenario (Figure F-2) is a carrier communicating with standalone
remotes. This scenario is similar to the previous one, treating the carrier devices
as the daisy-chained devices. All devices are still on the same subnet, and the

example uses a subnet mask of FF.FF.00.00 for the COM port in the central-site
carrier (only), with all of the remaining subnet masks set to FF.FF.FF.00. The

of the carrier’s circuit cards (and their remotes) are managed by one NMS and
other cards are managed by a different NMS. In this example, each card and
remote is on a separate subnet. Also, note that each LAN Adapter connection is
on a different subnet. The subnet mask is FF.FF.FF.00. The NMS hosts would
only need routes added for the subnets that they are to manage.

Asynchronous Terminal Interface
Operation
H
Overview
You can configure and manage the 3166 DSU/CSU from an asynchronous
terminal that is configured for 9.6 kbps, 8 characters, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
This appendix provides operational examples to help you become familiar with
the use of the Asynchronous Terminal Interface (ATI) for DSU/CSU control.
Before Using the ATI
You can connect an asynchronous terminal directly to the COM port of the
DSU/CSU, or you can establish a remote connection using dial-in (via the integral
modem) or Telnet access.
Before using the ATI, you may use the SDCP to set certain configuration options
for ATI operation. Use the Configuration (Cnfig) branch of the SDCP menu and
edit the User Interface (User) configuration options for ATI operation. Refer to
To connect the ATI to the DSU/CSU using Telnet access, refer to Configuring the
Resetting the ATI
If the DSU/CSU is misconfigured, leaving it in a state that does not support
asynchronous terminal operation, the recovery procedure consists of power
cycling the DSU/CSU, waiting for the completion of the power-up self-test, and
then pressing the asynchronous terminal’s Enter key five times in succession.
(Begin pressing the Enter key within two seconds after the completion of
power-up self-test, and do not wait longer than one second between each
successive key press.) This procedure allows you to use the System Paused
screen to reset the COM port configuration options or to reload all factory default
configuration options.

Initiating an ATI Session
Once the appropriate configuration option changes have been made and access
is established, the Main Menu screen appears (unless a password is required).
The DSU/CSU shows the 3000 Series carrier slot number under the
Customer ID. The slot number field (e.g., Slot: 1) is changed to access specific
DSU/CSUs in the carrier. For Telnet or SNMP access to the carrier, specify the IP
address of the applicable communication port (see Appendix F, IP Network

There are three types of ATI screens.
Menu screens list selections available through the menu system.
Input screens allow you to edit or change information on a screen using
screen function keys (Table H-1) or keyboard keys (Table H-2).
H
Display screens show the results from a data collection operation or they
display device-specific information.
The ATI supports character matching for entering values in fields. For example, if
the values for a field can be NET or PORT and you enter a ‘P’ and press Return
(Enter), then the value PORT automatically appears in the field.
Once an operation is initiated, status messages appear in the last row of the
screen. These include Please Wait (when a command takes longer than five
seconds) and Command Complete.
