ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The Campus® Remote Ethernet eXpress (Campus-REX) RS Interface Card
installs into a:
1
•
Campus-Star® chassis, along with a Campus-RS™ (Rate Selectable)
Line Unit
•
Standalone Campus-RS Desktop Unit
This comprises half of a High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL)
transmission system. When connected to another Campus-RS, Campus-T1®,
Campus-768®, or Campus-E1® Desktop Unit or Line Unit, the Campus-RS
system can transport digitized voice, data, and video signals over existing
copper wire at a number of different HDSL rates.
This version of the Campus-REX must be installed in a
Campus-RS or Campus-HRS Desktop Unit or with a
Campus-RS or Campus-HRS Line Unit. It cannot be installed
in an older Campus Desktop Unit or with an older Campus
Line Unit.
The Campus HDSL system provides a connection between geographically
distributed Ethernet Local Area Networks (LANs) in a campus environment.
To provide the connection, the Campus-REX performs transparent 802.3
MAC bridging or static IP routing over an HDSL line. You can use existing
telephone-grade copper wiring as the HDSL transmission medium.

About the Product
All earlier versions of Campus products are manufactured to operate at a
single HDSL transmission rate, while the Campus-RS transmission rate is
user-selectable. To support compatibility with earlier Campus Products, the
following configuration options must be set on the Campus-REX:
•
•
Set the HDSL Operating Mode to Standard Mode.
Set the Standard Mode HDSL Rate to T1, E1, or 768, to match the rate
of the earlier product.
If a Campus-RS unit is connected over an HDSL link to an earlier Campus
product, and if either unit has the HDSL Transceiver (XCVR) Mode set to
AUTO, the HDSL link may not operate properly.
When operating the Campus-RS product with an earlier version of the
Campus products, to avoid any problems with link startup or operation, it is
recommended that the Transceiver Mode be set as follows:
•
•
Campus-RS = MASTER
Campus E1/T1/768 = SLAVE
If one or both units are already set to AUTO and the HDSL link is active,
disconnect the HDSL link, change the settings as recommended, and
reconnect the link. This will assure the link integrity on any subsequent
startups.
This situation does not apply to a circuit with two Campus-RS
units. You may leave the units set to their default setting of
AUTO, and they will operate properly.
For information on setting these options, see “Set the HDSL Operating
Mode” on page 3-7.

When connecting to another Campus-RS Desktop Unit or Line Unit,
Standard Mode is still supported, providing access to HDSL transmission
rates of T1, E1 and 768 kbps. In addition, the Campus-RS system can be
configured to support an extended set of HDSL transmission rates, over either
one or two HDSL loops.
To support these additional transmission rates, set the following options on
the Campus-REX:
•
•
Set the HDSL Operating Mode to Extended Mode or AutoSync Mode.
Set the Extended Mode Loop Configuration to 1 Loop or 2 Loops,
depending on the physical layout of your HDSL network.
•
Set the Extended Mode HDSL Rate to the desired setting.

About the Product
The range of rates available for the HDSL Rate depends on the setting of
the Extended Mode Loop Configuration:
–
1 Loop HDSL Rate settings are between 128 kbps and 1.152 Mbps,
in 64 kbps increments
–
2 Loop HDSL Rate settings are between 256 kbps and 2.304 Mbps,
in 128 kbps increments
Not all of these modes and rates are available if the remote
Campus-RS system does not support them. Refer to the
remote interface card User Manual to see the HDSL modes
and rates supported by the card.
For information on setting these options, see “Set the HDSL Operating
Mode” on page 3-7.
ESTABLISHING AN HDSL LINK
Before an HDSL link can be established in Standard or Extended Mode, the
HDSL parameters for both the local and remote units must be set identically.
Using AutoSync Mode allows one unit to determine the HDSL parameters.
In AutoSync Mode, one unit is configured as a master and the other as a slave.
Upon startup, the HDSL parameters of the master unit are used to establish
the HDSL link. No further configuration of the slave unit is required.
If the remote unit is not configured as an AutoSync slave, an AutoSync
connection will not be established and the system generates an AutoSync
minor alarm. After several failed attempts, the master enters Fallback Mode
and attempts to establish a normal HDSL link with the same HDSL
parameters. If this is unsuccessful, for example, if the slave unit is configured
to a different HDSL Rate, the master unit reverts to attempting to establish an
AutoSync connection.

About the Product
APPLICATION
When installed in a Campus-RS Desktop Unit or Campus-Star chassis, the
Campus-REX functions as a remote bridge or static IP router.
You can use the Campus-REX to extend subnetworks to remote sites within
a campus. Or, for sites separated by greater distances, you can use the
Campus-REX to connect them through a public T1/E1 Wide Area Network
(WAN). See “Point-to-Point LAN Extension” and “LAN Connections Over
a WAN” on page 1-7 for more information.
Campus-REX software provides complete main bridging tasks of learning,
forwarding, filtering, and hashing/buffer management, 802.1d Spanning Tree
protocol, 802.3 drivers, packet sequencing, segmentation and reassembly,
and other local tasks. The Campus-REX is specifically designed for
10BASE-T LANs that use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) segments with
reach of more than 100 meters and that require low-cost, high performance
connectivity.
The Campus-REX performs full-bandwidth filtering on the 10BASE-T port,
and forwarding at the selected transmission rate.
Point-to-Point LAN Extension
As organizations move or change, LANs also evolve and may become
fragmented or physically separated. The Campus-REX provides a lower-cost
alternative to other LAN-extension solutions. The Campus-REX provides a
built-in 10BASE-T LAN interface that eliminates the need for other
internetworking devices while providing 30 times the performance of other
sub-rate wireless connectivity options, as shown in the following figure.

About the Product
LAN Connections Over a WAN
When LANs are distributed over a large physical area (such as within a
metropolitan area) or cabling is not available between sites, you can lease
appropriate unloaded copper pairs from a local carrier for LAN connectivity.
For transport over public networks, you can connect the public T1 network
(DSX-1 signal) to the LAN through Desktop Units with CSU/DSX-1
interface cards and the Campus-REX in a Desktop Unit. This application, as
shown in the following figure, simplifies access to public high-speed WANs
for LAN connectivity to remote sites.

Set Up the Campus-REX System
SET THE HDSL OPERATING MODE
The Campus-REX is set to operate in Standard Mode with a T1 (1.544 Mbps)
HDSL Rate. This is compatible with other Campus-RS products and with
Campus-T1 Desktop Units and Line Units. If this is the desired setting for
on page 3-19. Otherwise, follow the steps in this section to adjust the HDSL
transmission rate.
There are two ways to configure the HDSL line:
•
•
To use the LCD menus, see “Using the LCD,” below.
To use an ASCII Terminal, see “Using an ASCII Terminal” on
page 3-11.
Changes to the HDSL operating mode or transmission rate are
not automatically made to the remote unit. These changes
must be made at both the local and remote units for the HDSL
link to be re-established. If the remote unit is not easily
accessible, you can follow the instructions in “Logging Onto
a Remote Campus Unit” on page 5-3 to use an ASCII terminal
to perform a remote logon (if an HDSL link is up) and make the
desired change. When you change the HDSL settings for the
remote unit, the HDSL link is lost; it is re-established when
you make the identical change(s) to the local unit.

CONFIGURE THE CAMPUS-REX AS A BRIDGE
OR ROUTER
The Campus-REX can be configured to operate in one of two ways:
•
as a bridge to forward 802.3 frames using MAC addresses (see
“Configuring as a Bridge”)
•
as a router to forward IP packets based on a static routing table (see
“Configuring as a Router” on page 3-23)
For an overview of bridges, routers, and other network management
concepts, see “Internetworking and Management Overview” on page 7-1.
Configuring as a Bridge
Two configuration options, described in “MAC-Level Bridging and
Spanning Tree Protocol” on page 7-2, define how the Campus-REX operates
as a bridge. These options:
•
set Encapsulation to HDLC or PPP:
–
–
Use HDLC for most applications.
Use PPP when the remote unit includes a synchronous interface
card, such as a V.35 card.
•
enable or disable Spanning Tree

SET THE TIMING SOURCE
The Timing Source option determines the source of circuit timing on the
HDSL link. There are two settings for the Timing Source option:
•
Internal: Sets the Campus unit to take its timing from an internal
oscillator. This is the default setting.
•
HDSL: Sets the Campus unit to take its timing from the HDSL link.
The proper setting of the Timing Source option depends upon the interface
card of the remote Campus unit:
•
If the Campus-REX is connected to a Campus unit with another
Campus-REX RS Interface Card, leave the Timing Source option set to
Internal. The Campus system will not operate properly if both units are
set to HDSL.
•
If the Campus-REX is connected to a Campus unit with a synchronous
interface card, such as a Fractional V.35 card, the timing source depends
on the setting of the Primary Timing Source option of the remote unit:
–
Set the Timing Source to HDSL if the remote unit is set to Internal
or Port.
–
Set the Timing Source to Internal if the remote unit is set to HDSL.
See the Campus-RS Fractional Interface Card User Manual for
information on the Primary Timing Source option.
•
If the Campus-REX is connected to a Campus unit with a Campus
CSU/DS-1 or CSU/DSX-1 interface card, leave the Timing Source
option set to Internal.

CONFIGURING THE CAMPUS-REX AS A MASTER
OR SLAVE UNIT
The Transceiver Mode option determines the hierarchy of the two Campus
units when attempting to establish an HDSL link. There are three settings:
Master, Slave and Auto. Master and Slave are available for all three HDSL
Operating Mode settings. Auto Mode is only available for Standard and
Extended Modes, and is not available for AutoSync Mode.
•
If a unit is set to Master, it initiates the HDSL link. The other Campus
unit must be set to Slave or Auto.
•
If a unit is set to Slave, it waits for the other Campus unit to initiate the
HDSL link. The other unit must be set to Master or Auto. Slave is the
default setting for AutoSync HDSL Mode.
•
If a unit is set to Auto, it automatically switches between Master and
Slave until an HDSL link is established. The setting of the other Campus
unit is irrelevant. Auto is the default setting for Standard and Extended
HDSL Modes.
Unless you have a compelling reason for doing otherwise,
leaving the Transceiver Mode option set to Auto is
recommended.

CONFIGURING LOOPBACKS
Loopbacks provide a way to test the data communication path between the
Campus unit, the remote unit, and the remote host equipment. The
Campus-REX supports two types of loopbacks:
•
Local to Remote loopbacks test the remote data port, the data path inside
the remote Campus unit, the HDSL line, the HDSL transceivers of both
units, and most of the internal data path inside the local unit. This
loopback does not test the local data port drivers and receivers.
•
Remote to Remote loopbacks test the remote data port and a small
portion of the remote interface card.
If both the local and remote units have a Campus-REX
interface card, no loopbacks are supported.
Once a loopback condition has been initiated, it remains in effect until
cleared. You may also set a loopback timeout to clear the loopback
automatically after a set period of time has elapsed.

CONFIGURING THE CAMPUS-REX AS A MASTER
OR SLAVE UNIT
The Transceiver Mode option determines the hierarchy of the two Campus
units when attempting to establish an HDSL link. There are three settings:
Master, Slave and Auto. Master and Slave are available for all three HDSL
Operating Mode settings. Auto Mode is only available for Standard and
Extended Modes, and is not available for AutoSync Mode.
•
If a unit is set to Master, it initiates the HDSL link. The other Campus
unit must be set to Slave or Auto.
•
If a unit is set to Slave, it waits for the other Campus unit to initiate the
HDSL link. The other unit must be set to Master or Auto. Slave is the
default setting for AutoSync HDSL Mode.
•
If a unit is set to Auto, it automatically switches between Master and
Slave until an HDSL link is established. The setting of the other Campus
unit is irrelevant. Auto is the default setting for Standard and Extended
HDSL Modes.
Unless you have an important reason for doing otherwise,
leaving the Transceiver Mode option set to Auto is
recommended.

loopbacks:
If both the local and remote units have a Campus-REX RS
Interface Card, no loopbacks are supported.
•
•
The Local to Local loopback tests the local data port and a small portion
of the Campus-REX RS Interface Card.
The Local HDSL loopback tests the local data port and the entire data
path of the local Campus-REX RS Interface Card, including the local
HDSL transceiver. The data path in this loopback extends to the HDSL
line transformer, and causes the HDSL link to go down (a Link Alarm
occurs).
•
The Remote to Local loopback tests the local data port, the entire data
path inside the local Campus unit, the HDSL line, the HDSL transceivers
of both units, and most of the internal data path inside the remote unit.

MAC-LEVEL BRIDGING AND SPANNING TREE
PROTOCOL
The following sections describe the MAC-level bridge and the Spanning Tree
algorithm function.
MAC-Level Bridging
A bridge moves information across an internetwork from a source to a
destination at the link layer (of an OSI reference model). The information is
sent to a physical address known as a Media Access Control (MAC) address.
The Campus-REX provides transparent Ethernet MAC-level bridging. It is a
completely self-contained bridge with a CPU, memory subsystems (RAM,
Flash, etc.), an Ethernet controller and Ethernet drivers, and other glue logic.
It provides complete main bridging tasks of learning, forwarding, filtering,
and hashing/buffer management. Additionally, it offers 802.1d Spanning
Tree protocol, packet encapsulation (through HDLC or PPP framing), and
other local tasks.
Forwarding performance is at a full serial line rate and filtering performance
is at a full Ethernet rate of 14 kpps for 64-byte frames (minimum size).
Spanning Tree
Spanning Tree protocol creates a logical topology to overlay a physical
network. This overlay disables all loops in the data path. Enabling Spanning
Tree ensures a unique, primary path from any node on a network to any other
node. Also, if the primary path is lost, Spanning Tree creates a new primary
path by enabling links in the physical network that were previously disabled
in creating the active topology. The following figure shows an example of
Spanning Tree.

STATIC IP ROUTING
Through the static IP routing feature, you can configure the Campus-REX as
an IP router with statically programmed route entries. You can enable this
function as a security feature to prevent eavesdropping and to provide
broadcast filtering, as well as to specify multiple destination gateways. When
static IP routing is enabled, you can access only specific remote IP subnets or
hosts.
Since IP routers make forward or filter decisions based on the network-layer
IP address instead of the MAC hardware address, MAC-level broadcast
frames are prevented from reaching unwanted destinations in the network.
The following example shows a simple Internet Service Provider (ISP) site
that uses the static IP routing feature to filter MAC-level broadcast frames
sourced by ISP Subscriber A from reaching ISP Subscriber B. In this
example, all frames from Subscriber A and Subscriber B are directed to the
router at the Network Access Provider site. From there, frames from both
subscribers are forwarded directly to the Internet.

Internetworking and Management Overview
The following shows a more complex example of multiple gateways that use
static IP routing to route packets sourced from specific users to different
destination gateways. In this example, packets from each subscriber are
routed through a common hub to a router dedicated to that subscriber.

Internetworking and Management Overview
Parameter
Definition
Bridge/Router Mode
Select Bridge or Router. Both Campus-REX units connected
through the HDSL link must be configured as routers for
static routing to work.
Packet Encapsulation
Select either PPP or HDLC. You must set both Campus-REX
units connected through the HDSL link to the same
encapsulation option. For static routing, set this option to
HDLC.
Default Router IP Address Specifies the next hop default router entry. This entry tells the
Campus-REX what to do with a packet that has a destination
address that is not in the Static IP Routing table.
IP Static Routing Table
Specify up to three static route entries, where each entry
includes: destination Subnet or host IP address, destination
Subnet Mask, and the IP address of the next-hop Gateway to
which the packet should be sent. When you configure the
remote end of a point-to-point HDSL connection, you can
leave this table blank and specify a single default router IP
address since all packets will be forwarded to the other end
of the connection. Or for security, you can choose to fill in the
table.
LAN IP Address and
Subnet Mask
Enter the IP address and subnet mask for the LAN Port
(10BASE-T port). These must be configured for static IP
routing to function properly.
Line IP Address and
Subnet Mask
Enter the IP address and subnet mask for the Line Port
(HDSL port). These must be configured for static IP routing
to function properly. When you configure a point-to-point
system, the Line IP address of both units must belong to the
same IP subnet and the Line Subnet Mask parameters for
both units must be the same. The Line IP Address and
Subnet Mask for a point-to-point system are isolated and
hidden from the rest of the network—you may use any
subnet.
Configure a Static Route entry in any of the external routers that may have
been specified as a Default Router IP address or as a Gateway address in the
Campus-REX. This is required because the Campus-REX does not send
periodic route updates using protocols like Routing Information Protocol
(RIP) or Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) so that other external routers can
automatically update their routing tables. This implementation prevents other

Internetworking and Management Overview
Campus-REX IP Addresses
Each Campus-REX unit has two IP addresses, the LAN address and the Line
address. In the following figure, the non-shaded side of the Campus-REX
indicates the LAN address, which is for the Ethernet (10BASE-T)
connection. The shaded side of the Campus-REX is the IP Line address,
which is for the HDSL connection. Note that the IP Line address is different
from the LAN addresses. When connecting two Campus-REX units
point-to-point through HDSL, the IP Line addresses are completely isolated
and hidden from the rest of the network. You can assign any subnet to the
Line IP addresses.
When routing, data travels one hop at a time. The figure below shows
destination and next hop IP addresses. The destination address indicates the
network and subnetwork of the next hop. The next hop is the next-stop IP
address node. The default gateway is the upstream routing device. Use this
example to help you determine/record static IP routing addresses.

Internetworking and Management Overview
MANAGEMENT PROTOCOLS
SNMP is used for remote configuring of system and bridge parameters,
monitoring statistics, and performing advanced management. BOOTP is
available for the Campus-REX to download system software code.
SNMP
This messaging protocol specifies how to send information between a
Network Management Station (NMS) and managed devices on a network.
Managed devices (such as the Campus-REX) have agent software or
firmware that interprets SNMP requests and responds to them. The NMS
communicates with the agents in the managed devices to:
•
•
•
set configuration options
read configuration information
read status parameters
A Management Information Base (MIB) defines these configuration and
status parameters. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) specifies
standard MIBs for certain types of devices, ensuring that any NMS can
manage them. Additionally, vendors can issue proprietary MIBs for their
devices that provide higher management functionality.
The following table shows the configuration parameters that must be
maintained and restored to the Campus-REX through the system’s local
console port. These parameters are stored in the Campus-REX NVRAM
(non-volatile memory) and are used in subsequent initializations.

Campus-REX SNMP Agent
An agent is software or firmware code resident in managed devices (such as
the Campus-REX, modems, nodes, routers and hubs). Agents translate data
on remote networks into code the NMS can read. The NMS uses SNMP as
the transport mechanism to communicate with an agent. SNMP uses the
standard Internet Protocol (IP) to transport incoming and outgoing messages
to the appropriate agent or NMS address. Each SNMP command requires an
IP address or NMS from the agent to transport these messages.

Internetworking and Management Overview
The Campus-REX provides an SNMP agent that supports several MIBs for
the management of the system. The SNMP agent can process datagrams
received from both the Ethernet interface (LAN) and the HDSL interface
(Line). The agent and the protocol stack complies with the following RFCs:
•
•
•
•
•
•
RFC 1155, Structure of Management Information (SMI)
RFC 1157, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
RFC 826, Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
RFC 792, Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)
RFC 791, Internet Protocol (IP)
RFC 768, User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
MIB and Trap Support
Each managed device has configuration, status, and statistical information
that defines its functionality and operational capabilities. All of these
elements make up the MIB for the device being managed. The MIB defines
the kind of information an NMS can retrieve from a managed device and the
settings an NMS can control in a managed device.
The Campus-REX supports the following MIBs:
•
RFC 1213, Management Information Base for Network Management of
TCP/IP-Based Internets: MIB-II. Covers: system, interfaces, IP, ICMP,
UDP, and SNMP groups. The Ethernet interface has the ifIndex value
of 1.
•
•
•
RFC 1215, A Convention for Defining Traps for Use with the SNMP.
Covers: ColdStart, linkUp, linkDown, and authenticationFailure traps.
Link status traps are sent for events related to Ethernet.
RFC 1493, Definition of Managed Objects for Bridges. Covers: Base,
Spanning Tree, and transparent bridging groups. The Spanning Tree
MIB can only be accessed if the Spanning Tree protocol is enabled.
Proprietary REX MIB, an enterprise specific MIB designed for the agent
in the Campus-REX for managing the HDSL portion of the unit.

BOOTP
BOOTP is used to download configuration information to the Campus-REX
from a BOOTP server. You can also configure these parameters and save
them in NVRAM so that BOOTP can be bypassed. It is recommended that the
BOOTP server be connected to the same segment as the Campus-REX
10BASE-T port.
The Campus-REX supports both local and remote loading of bootstrap
information (IP configuration only) and operational image code. Local
bootstrap configuration information is contained in NVRAM. Local image
code is contained in Flash devices for local loading of operational code.
When loading over the network is preferred, you can use BOOTP (RFC 951)
to obtain bootstrap information and image files. Booting and image download
are controlled by the use of two attributes which are Boot Mode and Image
Load Mode. Other applicable RFCs are:
•
•
RFC 1533, DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions
RFC 1542, Clarification and Extensions for the Bootstrap Protocol
(Updates 951)

Internetworking and Management Overview
ENCAPSULATION PROTOCOLS
You can select from two packet encapsulation formats for Ethernet data for
the Campus-REX:
•
•
High-level Data Link Control (HDLC)
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
HDLC is the default setting, and should be used in most applications. Use
PPP only if the remote unit is a synchronous interface card, such as V.35.
When PPP is selected from bridging mode, the Campus-REX runs the
Bridging Control Protocol (BCP) RFC 1638. PPP provides interoperability
with other product types. HDLC is a compressed version of the encapsulation
protocol and is preferable when there is like equipment.
